About this restaurant

Good for groups
Charming
Good for special occasions

Schnitzel Platz in Glendale Heights is perhaps one of the most lively and entertaining eateries throughout the area and is known for hosting many events and is special enough to help ring in the holidays. In fact, Schnitzel Platz will often feature a special menu that has items only available throughout select times of the year like Oktoberfest. There are, of course, plenty of consistent favorites you will find too.

Some consistent menu items include the Kaiser in the neighborhood, Deutsche Haus platte, schweine braten and the sauerbraten. Make sure you also try the many schnitzels, of course, like the pork schnitzel, weiner schnitzel or the jager schnitzel. Schnitzel Platz also offers a kid’s menu that makes this restaurant a family-friendly place to go. and don't forget to come in and enjoy some authentic German polka music on weekends and our great selections of German bier imported from Germany!

We’ve been here a few times before and on Saturday we brought three of our friends. They had a live performer who was lively and set the right ambience for the restaurant. Food was delicious, served timely and the server was attentive.

A fun alternative to the usual Easter Brunch. Good food, great value! Easter Bunny was a hoot and the live music added to the ambiance. We look forward to trying them for a regular dinner soon.

I have never had a bad experience or meal here. Lucas our server was fabulous. I always get the veal schnitzel but today I had the Jager Schnitzel - this may become my new favorite. Eddie was the musician entertaining us. He was great interacting with all of the customers in the restaurant

Long-standing, very authentic german food. One of our party is second generation German and loves this place. A favorite was the remoulade which is now off the menu although it is available on limited days apparently. Nice German beer selection on tap. Semi casual dining experience, some minor maintenance issues (cracked seat cover). Service is excellent - attentive, friendly, you’ll feel like part of the family. Overall a fun place for a relaxing and enjoyable German dining experience.
