About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
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, whole suckling pig, 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!

    Family Easter has become a family tradition at Schnitzel Platz. Great atmosphere, food, service, and live music. Great time for adults and kids alike. Looking forward again to next year.

    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.

    I ordered the chicken schnitzel and it was unfortunately bland and dry. My husband got the pork schnitzel and his was also bland and dry. The green beans were great and the fries were fine, but bummed that the main part of the dish was so mediocre. The service was good and we loved the musician and beer choices, but we likely won’t be back.
