"We dined here 9/23 and loved everything. We’ve lived in Germany and appreciated the authenticity of the menu and the care taken with the preparation of the food! My husband was in deep emotional love with the Schweinshaxe ha ha The selection of wines and liquors is great too"

Whether you're a fan of schnitzel or sauerkraut, this establishment is a fantastic place to savor authentic German cuisine. The cozy interior, complete with Bavarian decor, adds to the charm. Don't forget to pair your meal with a refreshing German beer or a glass of Riesling. Overall, the Bavarian Chef is a must-visit for those seeking a taste of Germany in a warm and welcoming setting."
"Since moving to Virginia, we have been trying to find a go to resturant for german food. We came across the Bavarian chef on an online add and decided at the last minute to make the trip. We are very happy we did! On a busy Friday night they were able to accommodate a party of two near the bar area. The restaurant was busy with several large parties, however, service was fast, friendly and efficient. While the decor was dated, it reminded me of the many great German restaurants we visited every fall in NJ. The food was beyond delicious! While not as tender as I have had in the past the flavor of the sauerbraten was quite possibly the best I have had. The sides were all excellent as were the portions. We both had leftovers to take with us that did not go to waste. The black forest cake was just like my mom used to make, very tasty. When the bill came, we were very satisfied for the quality and quantity for the price. This was a great experience made even better by the scenic drive coming from Beaverdam. This will be our new go to german restaurant for sure!"
"We have been dying to come here for years, it was well worth the wait! I made a reservation a week in advanced and we were glad we did because it quickly got busy for prime lunchtime. The specials were impressive and the duck was some of the best I’ve had. I haven’t had duck prepared like this since I was in France over a decade ago. Felt like I was vacationing abroad! We enjoyed the beer taster flight and dessert too. We’ll definitely be back for special occasions!"
"Food is truly authentically German and delicious. Desserts are amazing as well. Reminded me of my years in Germany. Always find time to eat there when in Madison VA."
