The food was amazing, and the atmosphere was lovely. Fancy and slightly rustic. The service was good, just not exceptional, as they were not always the most attentive to needs at our table; something you might expect for how pricy the restaurant is. Overall, however, it was a great experience and would certainly recommend it! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $100+ Recommended dishes Cheesecake
Just had an amazing experience at Otto’s as a last minute dinner to finish off a weekend celebrating our wedding anniversary with camping at Big Bend National Park. Definitely recommend making reservations if you can but we were lucky enough to score seats at the bar for our evening meal. Violet the bartender was extremely knowledgeable and had great recommendations for drinks, as well as the best drink pairings to go with whatever we ordered. The duck schnitzel was AMAZING and my classic bratwurst plate was absolutely delicious as well. We will definitely be back to share this fantastic find with friends and family.

My husband and I loved dining at this place for my birthday. The food was delicious and good portions. Drinks were well made with a “special touch” from the bar tender, and we finished with a good desert birthday cake. ☺️ Thank you! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Absolutely delicious! Duck schnitzel was the star. The bread and butter is delicious. The mushroom soup was flavored so well! Highly recommend. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Duck Schnitzel

Stopped here a bit later in the evening on a Sunday and was able to get a table, but I would recommend reservations. We ordered the bread appetizer, duck schnitzel, and the steak dinner. The food was delicious, especially the duck schnitzel which I added a fresh duck egg onto. A little pricey overall, but a great spot for an intimate date.

We decided to stop by to check out this place, while visiting Fredericksburg. We didn’t have plans or reservations. It was early on a Friday evening, and got lucky to get a small table upfront. We ordered the flat bread as an appetizer and we both ordered the duck schnitzel. It’s a breaded duck breast, topped with an optional fried egg. It’s really a great combination. Presentation is beautiful and it comes with sauerkraut. Food was delicious. Atmosphere is very nice and service was good. We will be going back there next time we visit Fredericksburg.

Strongly recommend you call ahead for reservations for more than 4 people. You can only make reservations online for 4 but you can call them and make a reservation if you have more people. We didn't make a reservation but they somehow found seating for us on the patio. They do allow dogs on the patio however it is small so if your dog can't hold still I wouldn't recommend it. The duck schnitzel was amazing, I strongly recommend it. The quail and the chevre gnocchi were also very good.

We came here for our anniversary dinner and glad we came!! Our meals were fantastic, drinks fantastic, and the service was wonderful. We had the duck schnitzel and the pork schnitzel. The bread and butter plate was also very good and I liked the toppings: whipped butter, a jam, and sea salt flakes! I wouldn't have guessed salt would be so delicious on bread with butter and jam. The cheesecake, ooooo the cheesecake!! The bartender said they're known for it and that is well deserved. It was like no cheesecake I've ever had before. It was rich, creamy, deep. The glaze on top was incredible. I thought another reviewer was exaggerating when they said it was the best cheesecake they've ever had... It is mine too! I loved my hibiscus ginger beer mocktail. I love that while I'm trying to avoid/limit my alcohol intake, the bar had some unique mocktails on the menu that looked pretty, too! It helped me not draw so much attention to the fact I wasn't drinking on our anniversary. We didn't see any tables available inside when we went to make a reservation online. We saw patio seats available. We were torn between one of the more casual restaurants and this one. I wanted more of a quality food experience for our anniversary date as I assumed it would be more romantic, and it was.

Cute and quaint spot. Very nice ambiance. We went in on a Sunday night. Probably the last reservation you could book. Just how it turned out. We have a lil one so making reservations is tougher than it needs to be. We arrived a little early and they sat us quickly. We chose to have wine. My wife was quick on the draw and knew what she wanted. We ordered the bread and butter and her wine and a salad to start. I on the other hand took a few extra minutes. It took a while for me to get my wine ordered but got it in just before our appetizers landed. It wasn’t particularly busy but it took longer or get drinks than I thought it should have. I had another glass of wine with my meal and a cocktail as a night cap. The food was phenomenal. My wife’s plate was super well portioned and my duck schnitzel was devine. The green beans we ordered for our date were delicious. Our family date night was great. All in all it was a great experience.

We went for Sunday brunch. Didn't have reservations but were able to secure a walk in table for two just as they opened at 11am. The restaurant has a cute enclosed patio you enter through to the indoor dining. Both spaces are small, yet inviting. Maybe 8 tables inside and a 5 top bar. The coffee is good and the bloody mary has a nice spice that warms you up. We tried Otto's Reuben and the Zitronenwaffel-- both really great! Nice portion sizes and plated beautifully. I really enjoyed the fresh fruit and mint on the lemon ricotta waffle. My husband shared a bite of his Reuben... I know what I'll go for next time! When we are back in Fredericksburg, I'll definitely stop in to try dinner. Service Dine in Meal type Brunch Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
