"I can't say enough about this establishment. From drive-through service, counter, wait staff and Maitre, cashier, all were on point! This was my 1st experience with German food and the wait staff was very patient in explaining to me all the different choices and options. We were seated with a wonderful ( Or should I say wunderbar?) view of "The Boulevard" which I could only be described as the San Diego equivalent of Paris's Champs-Elysees. As this was a special occasion, my partner and I celebrating our 25th anniversary, we decided to splurge. We began our culinary journey with a vorspeise (appetizers) of bacon and ranch chili cheese fries, a signature dish of the chef. We took our waiter's suggestion of pairing it with the soda de maison, a bright and bubbly waxed paper cup of Root Beer. I have to admit I was a little bit disappointed that there was no amuse bouche offered to compliment the meal. Moving on to the main course, my partner and I sampled the corn and chili cheese dog. The corn dog was amusing with a light brown crunchy crust and had a good "mouth feel". We were so excited to samole the chili cheese dog and found the chili to be delicious and not too spicy with a texture that was both creamy and chunky at the same time. The bun was steamed to perfection however I felt the cheese to be lacking with a slight processed cheese aftertaste. We completed our meal with the suggested traditional German dessert, the A & W Root Beer Float. I highly recommend this quaint hidden gem located on San Diego's world famous "Boulevard", otherwise known as ECB or historic old highway 80 In the bedroom community of City Heights. Many thanks to the hard working staff of Weinerschnitzel for a culinary experience that can only be described as wunderbar! On a final note, don't be intimidated by the complexity of the menu. there is no need to learn German or bring your German guidebook as the staff. All speak impeccable English."
"The food was alright, kind of reminds me of carnival food. Biggest highlight though, they gave my service dog a free hot dog! Great customer service"
"This Wienerschnitzel used to be one of the better ones but it isn't anymore! (Maybe new ownership??) I came in and got 2 corn dogs, large fries and a large strawberry lemonade. The corn dogs and fries were so greasy that the grease was coming through the bag! The fries were u salted and the pink lemonade was watery! The customer service was atrocious! Her attitude was like talking to cardboard! Plus I was told it would be $14.86. I paid w my debit card and asked for a receipt and the receipt said $13.46! Hmmmm!!!"
"Very good corn dogs. Fast service from friendly employees. Ordered online a Corn Dog and a 6 piece Mini Corn Dogs. I assume the cost of the mini corn dogs being $1.10 more than a regular corn dog is mostly for the novelty, and not that they are supposed to be 1.5x more hotdog and cornbread. The regular and mini corn dogs were equally tasty, especially after adding the yellow mustard. Since I placed the order online, tamper evident seals were placed on my bag. A very good practice, however I was able to carefully remove one and reapply it without any noticeable change. They might want to choose a seal with a more permanent glue."
"Just the same tasting hotdogs either you love them or not. I do, grew up coming and now most are closed. So enjoy this one while its here. They are already selling the chili sauce separately, possibly means they are going to be closing soon and sell the sauce in grocery stores"
