Backstreet Cafe

I really wanted to like this place. The food was great, the service was VERY slow but friendly. It took over an hour for our food to come out. I dont know if we will be back. Maybe if we happen to be in the area and have plenty of time because their Black Forrest cake was totally authentic and yummy and their meals are reasonable.

We stopped by to visit someone and decided to eat. I moved here from Germany in 2003 and let me tell you in 23 yrs I have not had more of authentic German food here ever! The jäger schnitzel is delicious, the spätzle are also very good. My husband had the cordon bleu which was almost really good!. I was amazed and baffled at the same time… def recommend! Allie the waitress is here is sweet and will take great care of you! Tip her well!

Let me just start off by saying this is my FIRST and LAST TIME I will EVER come to this establishment. I can’t believe we had to sit there and listen to Bluey blasting through the TV we were next to, and then Christmas music screaming on the other side of the building during our mediocre meal. For waiting 15 - 20 minutes (that’s ridiculous when there was only 1 other table in the entire building), and for the price of a BYO omelette? I would’ve at least hoped the vegetables were cooked and actually incorporated into said omlette. Judging by how my food came out, and how the servers were acting they just didn’t care.

4/2/25 Update This was by far the best visit we have and. Food was excellent and they restaurant was more than adequately staffed! The servers were all pretty new but were much better than previous visits. Good job Backstreet Cafe! Service here is always a gamble but the food is always on point!!!! Had a great meal here on their German day!!! I had cordon blue, German potato salad and spatzel. Good service sat outside enjoyed the porch dining!!!

Food was great! Came out hot, fast and fresh. I had the snitzel and that alone took up the whole plate. Our server seemed new. The other servers did team service, jumped in and ensured we had everything we needed and saved the night. Next time I'm trying dessert. They look amazing but was too full. Great job backstreet cafe!
