Royal Bavaria

What we ordered: although it was Thursday buffet night, but we still order from the à la carte menu because I am craving for pig knuckle for ages.
Their pig knuckle was crispy and yummy. It would be awesome if it is a little more salty. All the side dishes were outstanding. The preserved veggies were excellent, especially the red cabbages. I love it the most. We also order a sampler sausages, it was good as well.
For the beverage, I actually looking for some black beer which smell wheat and smooth, and we had ordered two different kind of beer. It was a bit different with my expectation, but over all was tasty and cold enough.
Time: around 7pm, Thursday
Person: 2 people walkin
Staff: Nice and efficient.
Price: average
Will return or not: yes

I can’t say enough good things about this place. We always go for family birthdays or celebrations. The Thursday night buffet is my absolute favorite. The dill dressing is addictive. The mashed potatoes are perfect. Great service everytime.

Will not be returning. We went tonight and were seated in the back next to the restrooms and the drink station, feeling like part of the waitstaff eating on a break rather than guests paying for dinner. Additionally, the prices were outrageous! A schnitzel was $ 18.97, when you can get a larger portion of the same thing at das boot for more than half the price. The service was awful, and we had to get up to get our own ketchup because we were never checked on. Also, half the fries were spilt on the serving tray by the waitress when the food was being delivered. She not only tried to pick them up with her bare hands and then put them back on my plate, but didn’t offer to replace them with new fries. Who knows if that tray has ever been washed! Disgusting! Save your gasoline and your money and go to das boot instead. They may be run by the same owners but they don’t compare. The prices shouldn’t vary so much when the quality is the same, if not worse, at Royal Bavaria.

It might be off the beaten path, but it is well worth the drive. Excellent food (sausage platter is a great deal) AND they brew their own beer… Which is excellent as well. Services very good and the staff friendly. We went on a weeknight and it was slow but not dead. I’d guess weekends are busier. Get in your car and go for a drive.

Great food and great atmosphere.
The food reminded me of my grandmothers home cooking, she is German and brought about great memories. Sauerkraut tasted homemade and the potatoes most definitely were. Keep making great food.
Will be heading back here again!

I give them 4 stars because their kindness makes up for lack of authenticity. For example, not having Weisshurst would be a sin in Bavaria and their mustard had a «honey-​like» taste. We did get their handcrafted replica beer growler and a stein that was more affordable than those in Munich. The food was very good but Americanized to make everyone happy. We enjoyed the visit very much and will be back when we visit our son at OU again.

We enjoyed our first experience dining here, the food was ok but the atmosphere and the beer were great. However, the next time we tried to eat here, we made reservations a week in advance for a party of 8 with a toddler making it 9 people. When we arrived they tried to seat us at a table suited for 6. Since they were booked they couldn’t switch tables so we were left with no choice but to leave. Beware if you have a large party.

Very desent German food. High priced, slow service, and very bright lights. If you really want German food/​beer and don’t want to drive to old Germany it will do. Nothing special about it at all.

I loved this place! From the outside I was kind of doubtful but on the inside its so cozy & ethnic. From the music to the seating and décor I liked it very much. Josh was a great waiter for us tonight. I enjoyed their beer & the cheese curds, as well as the special they have on the schnitzel mom-​wed by one get one free! I’ll be back here for sure, yum!

Cheese curds are a must (not on buffet)! Thursday buffet for $ 17pp was a great place for a birthday party. Not as busy as I remember but maybe it’s crazier when the weather cools down. Service was outstanding and those special schnapps shots were fun to try. Litters of beer are festive! We will order off menu next time around. Fun and yummy Okie gem!

Das Boot! I have been going to Royal Bavaria for years now, and they continue to deliver a traditional Bavarian experience, from the handcrafted beers to appetizers, entrees, music, and ambiance. The Sausage Sampler continues to be my favorite, which is an excellent appetizer for a small group, or you can personally order this as an entrée with sides for just a little more, at $ 15.79. Look for Gemischter Wurstteller mit Sauerkraut und Kartoffelbrei, on the menu, a sausage sampler with a variety of 4 sausages, served with German sauerkraut, mashed potatoes and gravy. I often substitute their red cabbage or German potato salad as sides, both of which are excellent as well.
I also HIGHLY recommend the beer — get a beer sampler if you can’t decide, pick your favorite of the three, and then get a 1-​liter boot. It is the affordable way to go. A lot of the entrees are good, albeit pricey. I would ask about the daily specials, as they will be fresh and fun.
Going for quantity and taking some home is always an option! Look for the Schlachtplatte «ROYAL BAVARIA» which is a Bavarian butcher’s platter, grilled smoked pork chop, gourmet ham, and Nürnberger sausage, served with German sauerkraut, mashed potatoes and gravy for only $ 19.79. Quite the steal!
If there is a downside, it is that some of the desserts lack in execution and flavor, such as the Apfelkücherl mit Zimtzucker und Vanille– Eis (deep-​fried apple) which is too doughy. The apple strudel is better, but still not a dessert that transports me back to Bavaria. Just have more beer as dessert instead!
Overall, this place is WELL WORTH the drive. Check their website for hours, paying attention to times they are open. But that is not enough — I encourage you call ahead for a reservation. It is a good place for groups, but can fill up fast, especially when there is live music.

They don’t have real «Authentic» German food when I passed by the kitchen it was pre-​made items in a bag thrown into the fryer… I had also asked the waitress of they had dark beer, and what I received was pretty much a Newcastle. They do not serve Braunschweiger, nor do they serve dark beer! I will not ever go back to this over priced non authentic establishment again!

Finally had dinner at Royal Bavaria after hearing about this place from friends for years. It was during the week, so the place wasn’t crowded. I like the feel of the joint, it’s semi-​authentic I would say, but very comfortable. The tables seat 8 comfortably, and we sat at one with a half booth on one side. They had pillows for comfort, which was nice.
We were immediately approached by our server, dressed in a traditional dress you see at German beer joints. We had a couple beers which were true to their German ancestry. To start, we went with the sausage appetizer. This is around $ 15 and gives you 4 types of sausage to share and a mound of sauerkraut in the middle. All were fantastic, I thought the wurst with cheese was maybe the best cheese infused sausage I’ve ever had. They were all juicy and flavorful. This is a great start to the meal, and imminently shareable.
To eat, I went with my favorite German restaurant dish: Jagerschnitzel. This is schnitzel served with a bacon/​mushroom gravy and spatzle. The pork version of this dish is $ 19 at Royal Bavaria, but I opted to pay the $ 5 upcharge and go with veal. This is a large dish, you get 2 good sized schnitzels with the order. I took one home and was still full. The schnitzels are fried crispy, but were dry in a few spots. That being said, I really enjoyed them and would order the dish again. The spatzle is traditional and goes well with the gravy. The gravy is good, I could have used more of it actually. Additionally, it was underseasoned, so I added a good dose of salt and pepper at the table. But, this was solid version of this dish overall.
The table shared the chocolate bread pudding (I’m not even going to attempt to put the German name in this review). It was good, a little too sweet for me with the chocolate and orange caramel sauce. But, it’s a large dessert and a good value for $ 7.
Service was fantastic throughout. Never had to ask for beer or water refills, and she was great with my 4 year old son and the 2 year old son of the friends we were with.
Be advised the parking lot is entirely dirt. So, I can see how it would be problematic if it’s raining heavily. But, even if it’s a bit of a drive from our house, I will absolutely return.

Called, asked if we needed reservations. Was told no, but get there before 7 p.m. When we got there we were told no tables were available because we didn’t have a reservation. Manager didn’t seem to care we were told different. Can’t tell you how the food was. But the service sucks. We call and ASKED if we needed reservations. we were told NO. Was not offered a place on the reserve list. So the person who replied, lied in his response. And it was a Thursday night.

I love this place. Good food, always a friendly staff, good atmosphere, good beer. Get the bread basket too. Great variety of German bread on it. I can’t say enough good about it. They also have a nice outdoor area.

This place was pretty good. It was my first time eating German food and this place set the bar pretty well. I got the mixed meat plate which was delicious! The meats were very tender. They craft their own beer, I got the King’s gold which was fantastic. Me and my friends ended up purchasing a keg of their Octoberfest. Overall this place was great!

Kinda went back and forth on whether this was 3 or 4 stars. Figured I liked enough outside of my meal to go ahead and give it the extra star.
2 Stck. Scharfe Hänchen Bratwurst mit Pommes Frites und Curry Ketchup 3.5÷5
Two «spicy» chicken sausages with french fries and curry ketchup. I don’t know how to pronounce any of those words in German outside of «Curry» and «Ketchup.»
The sausages were «okay» nothing blew me away about them. Not really anything I would call spicy myself, but they still tasted alright. There’s something about chicken sausages that maybe I just am not a big fan of. The french fries were pretty tasty though and I loved the curry ketchup. Strangely they were the best part of the meal.
King’s Weizen (beer) ⁵⁄₅
Good stuff! I’m always happy with beers that aren’t incredibly hoppy because it takes some serious work to get that taste to be good.
Atmosphere
I imagine because it was a Tuesday afternoon the place wasn’t all that busy. The ladies wear traditional (maybe?) German dresses. For some reason we were seated at this huge table that could easily sit 8 or 9 people when there was only two of us. This made me feel really lonely. I liked being able to look over and see the brewery.
Server
I feel bad I never remember people’s name but she was super nice. She had lost her voice, but made sure she was able to be heard and still remained really friendly. Nice lady!
This is a place I want to go back to because I really believe they have some good stuff. I sampled a few bites from Rachel S’s plate and found it enjoyable. I’ll have to go back some time.

We don’t have an abundance of German restaurants here, especially if you compare it with the surplus of other eateries like Thai or Mexican/​Tex-​Mex. The most unfortunate part is only that the location is fairly out of the way. On a positive spin, it kind of adds to the atmosphere and I’m sure the biergarten is great when it’s not freezing cold.
Fried cheese curds with German mustard and dill sauce (⁵⁄₅): This looks like a newer item on the menu, because it isn’t listed on the site menu. The great part about these fried items is that the breading has a crispy quality and completely avoids being greasy and unpleasant. The cheese inside is stringy, and isn’t at all rubbery or difficult to chew. It comes with dill and mustard, both of which are very good.
Bayerischer Schweinebraten in Biersauce mit Semmelknödl, Blaukraut:
Roasted pork shoulder (⁴⁄₅): The meat was juicy and tasty and fell apart so easily. My only complaint is that it was a bit too fatty which somewhat took away from the succulent taste of the rest of it.
Bread dumpling with gravy (⁴⁄₅): I love dumplings and all the various interpretations of them. This German dumpling was very thick and well complimented by the brown gravy that it was soaked in. It was just a bit too salty, but not enough so to be overwhelming.
Red cabbage (⁵⁄₅): Some of my favorite cabbage to date. Before this, I only really liked the cabbage that I make at home. The cabbage seemed to be boiled but was flavored in a way that made it so very pleasant.
Russ (⁵⁄₅): A beer drink that was half King’s Weizen and half Mountain Dew. I very much dislike Mountain Dew, but found the mix to be very tasty.

An Alpen Haus rises in the flat horizon outside OKC — Royal Bavaria.
Very nice, clean, quaintly decorated restraint and brewery. The Oktobefest Märzenbok Bier is tasty, as are the cheese curds with homemade mustard and dill sauces. Chris our server is polite, knowledgable and swift mit alles. For dinner I had the Rinderroulade mit Kartoffelbrei und Blaukraut und Spätzle. Alles schmeckt fantastisch!

A friend and I arrived on a Saturday night around dinner time. We were immediately seated in a more private room right by the front door. I was glad for that because the rest of the restaurant was packed and loud. Our waiter was a very sweet man, Daniel. He was one of the best waiters I’ve had in a long time. And good service is hard to find nowadays.
I ordered a sausage plate that came with mashed potatoes and sauerkraut. I loved everything on my plate. I pretty much licked it clean. Prices are comparable to other German restaurants I have been to. My bill after tip was about $ 20. I walked in with expectations of paying a higher price for the type of food I was getting so that is something to keep in mind; don’t be shocked at the prices. I felt like it was worth every penny because the food was great, the restaurant was nice, and service was excellent.
