I can say this is our favorite restaurant in Kitchener/Waterloo area. Loved their Pork Hock. It’s always perfectly done. Crispy on the outside, very juicy on the insider. When you eat with their own sauerkraut, it’ll give and nice balance to the taste and take away the greasiness of the pork hock. I’m never a schnitzels person, but I would eat the ones here. Again they are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. Laberkase is a kind of German«ham» topped with a sunny side up egg. It looks like a breakfast dish, but you can have it for dinner :). And by the way, their portions are huge! They have a buffet dinner for $ 16.45 on Friday nights, which is the best deal around Toronto and Waterloo. Great selection of food and a huge dessert table! Saturday night is done and dance. It’s mostly elderly couples who are dancing there. The atmosphere is lively and charming. It’s always a pleasure to watch them dance :) Beer selections are good with plenty of German beer. Service are always warm and friendly. I’ve been there a lot of times and never disappointed. The only disappointment is not able to book a table.

Craving schnitzel so we came here for dinner, group of 3. Also very coincidentally came on Thurs night chef night, 2 schnitzel for $ 19. Pretty sweet deal. We also got a Bavarian weisswurst dinner. All were delicious though the schnitzel was missing the cranberry sauce that I’d get back in Munich and Salzburg when I visited earlier this year. It tasted a bit dry without it, but nonetheless my craving was satisfied. The dining area is huge with a ton of seating, and was very packed when we arrived. As others have mentioned, the décor is very authentic German/Austrian. Service was quick and we were seated right beside a TV playing CFL so that was nice. Overall we had a great time and would love to come back for another one of their daily specials!

Concordia Club definitely worth the drive if you are looking for authentic German food in the area. Everything here is house made including their dessert. Dessert is just so good. We shared: Goulash Soup($ 6.75) Concordia Platter($ 18.50) smoked pork chop, small Schnitzel, German bratwurst, dumpling and fine German sauerkraut Rote Grutze($ 6.25) red berries cooked with rum, & served with fresh cream — The first time I tried and I am a FAN! Black Forest Torte($ 6.25) to Go! There is also some selection of German beers on draft. Seems like a fun place for Oktoberfest!

Great mix of comfort Germanstrudelporkhocken and bier on tap. The servings are generous and served by friendly staff in traditional Bavarian attire. We would go again to try the other menu items. If I was from Bavaria, I’d would feel comfortable in my lederhosen … Bier in hand

Upon rolling up to this place you will notice plenty of parking unless it has some sort of venue going on such as Octoberfest etc. We were greeted by a very friendly female hostess, who sat us around the middle section of what was like a banquet hall. I observed a dance floor and a bar that could accomodate a decent sized wedding or festival. I chose to eat rouladin which is like a very fine steak with a pickle rolled up in the middle of it. I had some sourkrout on the side and shpehtcel(spelling here?) it was like little pasta. I must say the meal was very nice if you like German food, which I do. The guests who attended with me ate Snitchel(spelling here) and they also ejoyed their meals. This resturant offers soup of the day which can be anything from cream of brocolli soup to French onion… or even Goulash soup. There are plenty of types of bread offered before and during the meal. Prices were great. Six of us ate for about $ 100.00 plus tips. No alcohol… I dont think… LOL.

was in town on a biz trip and our partner took me here for lunch. the beer was great. the food is all right. i ordered their suasage with curry and it was ok. also ordered a side of their fried liver; it was also just ok. i’m a hugh fan of suasages, other than that do not know much about german cuisine. gave it a 3 star for that reason. this place is very popular during october for their ‘october fest’ tho.

Went to their dinner buffet one night. The variety of food offered was actually quite good, although the salad bar could’ve been better. I tried almost everything and the Schnitzel was my absolute favorite. I probably had 3+ pieces. The red soup(I’m not sure what it’s called) is also recommended, since it was a bit sour and totally worked up my appetite. Same with the sauerkraut. I had apple strudel for dessert. Mmm… very enjoyable food and atmosphere. Loved it.

My friend took me here for dinner on Saturday and I was absolutely blown away. The Concordia House is a German Beer Hall and basically looks exactly the way you would expect: dark wood, crests aplenty and all sort of stuff painted on the walls. Plus, the servers wear dirndls!!! We were seated by an elderly German man(I think the owner) who told us that we should both sit facing the middle of the room, so that we can watch the dancers. Apparently, they have a live band on Saturday nights and people dance! I am SOEXCITED at this point. It only gets better. I order a pint of beer and instead, am served 0.5L of beer! Metric beer! My friend orders the chicken schnitzel, and I order the Concordia Platter: 1 small schnitzel, 1 smoked pork chop, 1 Oktoberfest sausage, dumplings(basically stuffing in gravy) and sauerkraut. I drove 2 hours through a snowstorm to get there. I was leaving there hungry. The meal was good, not the BEST I’ve ever had, but definitely very tasty. The schnitzel was great as was the sausage. My dining partner was very happy with her chicken schnitzel, which was basically took up half the dinner plate. For dessert, we split an apple strudel, which was homemade, but not quite sweet enough. During dessert, we were treated to a two man band featuring a guy on drums and a guy on the accordion and keyboard, as well as a bunch of seniors ballroom dancing across the floor. It was pretty spectacular. This place gets 3.5 stars for food, 3 stars for service and a billion stars for atmosphere. I will definitely be back, and with friends!

I was here for dinner at the Schenke Restaurant in the basement during Oktoberfest. The décor and furniture though not fancy is authentic and has a German feel to it. The servers and staff were in dirndl dresses and were very polite and warm. The buffet hall had pretty good service and the food although had very limited variety was delicious. The pork schnitzel was tender on the inside and crispy outside. The sausages were to die for. The constant flow of beer was personally appreciated and I enjoyed the apple strudel for desert was perfect. And we got a surprise shot of schnapps at the end of it all. A good experience although I am not sure if I’ll make this a regular thing.

I went here for a wedding reception and the German food here was amazing. I’m not sure if it was the wedding planner who arranged it but the food was tasty and plentiful. I have never been to a wedding that had so much food. I was afraid I wouldn’t fit my dress by the end of the night. The interior is also very warm and welcoming. The ceiling lights are quite pretty. This is a great space for good sized event.

Einmalig ist im Concordia Club auch die deutsche Musik, die sie immer wieder gerne — auch live! — spielen. Vor allem ältere Kanadier(zumeist deutsche Auswanderer) treffen sich hier gerne. So kann man ein bisschen deutsche Identität in Kanada ausleben!

Jedesmal wenn ich bei meiner Tante in Kitchener, Ontario, Kanada zu Besuch bin(ca. alle 5 Jahre einmal), ist ein Besuch im deutschen Club Concordia ein Muß. Seit über 130 Jahren besteht dieser Club in der von vielen Deutschen bewohnten Stadt. Obwohl man Mitglied sein muß um dort einzukehren, sind deutsche Besucher gerne willkommen. Das Angebot an Freizeitmöglichkeiten bietet wirklich für jeden Geschmack etwas. Es gibt Skat, Tennis, Bowling, Bridge, Kinder– Jugend und Männerchor, eine Schuhplattlergruppe, Camping und noch viele andere Angebote für die Mitglieder. Natürlich kann man dort auch gut essen. Haxen, Bratwürste, Schnitzel und viele andere deutsche Gerichte sind auf der Speisekarte. Deutsches Bier vom Fass ist eine Selbstverständlichkeit. Höhepunkt im Jahr ist das Oktoberfest. Karten hierfür muß man schon lange vorbestellen. Auch sonst werden in der Scheune mehrmals die Woche Veranstaltungen angeboten. Für die meisten Deutschen in Kitchener ist dieser Club ein Stück Heimat. Leider konnte Google Kitchener auf der Karte nicht finden
