Bavaria Restaurant - Abbotsford

A classic in Abbotsford! The long time family owned operated European German Restaurant has been in the community for over 40 years it 's now run by the second generation of the same family! Must try items : Their famous BAVARIA GOULASH SOUP if you feel you haven 't had enough you can also bring some home as they do sell them by the litres..thats how good they are!! Appetizers are also a great way to savour different items when visiting as a group, if they have Lamb lollipops order them!! Fresh oysters are seasonal..just ask the server! I also love their Schnitzel dishes, and other German inspired items..as I find German cuisine being more and more hard to find in Vancouver nowadays! Ambience is cool inviting, and they do have some tables that offers more intimate lightings!! Service is always warm friendly, a few free parking spots are available within the Restaurant complex, but it is not hard to find free street parking nearby!

The service is fantastic, the food is always amazing! You want steak?! Here's the place! Seafood? You got it!!! And you always get a complimentary bowl of very tasty goulash. It's cozy and not too loud. We've been SEVERAL times and have never been disappointed. Will continue to be our fave place!

Food is excellent but dont get the Oysters. A year ago they were great. Now it's rather insulting. You cant find the Oyster. Its not a matter of they are coming small. I sent my empty shells filled with hollandaise and spinach back and when the next ones came I had an oyster (sure it was because they had to as I complained) it had a slice mark and my next Oyster with it was I am sure the tiny piece that had been sliced off the first one. Not sure what the issue is but rather have them say seasonal or not available then to dice them to the point you cant find them lol. The Manager at the time solution was telling me not to order them anymore. I responded with clearly but perhaps take them off menu. This was the third time they were empty. Seafood rissotto is excellent and service is as well. Beware of empty Oyster shells!!

My wife I went for dinner after making reservations, we were seated quickly, then had a bit of a wait to order anything. I had a mango mojito my wife have a limoncello gin fizz to drink, they were delicious, The appys we ordered were the garlic prawns And the lobster bake they were very delayed in showing up almost 30 mins after they were ordered. We think the garlic prawns could have been a bit bigger for the price as they were good but the portion was quite small. The lobster bake was not really enough lobster but very tasty. Overall they were both very yummy but the size was just a bit small. For our mains we had 12 oz prime rib with garlic mash and jus My wife had the filet mignon with seafood risotto Both came with seasonal veggies The steaks were perfectly cooked the prime rib melted in your mouth. The garlic mash was ok. The jus was very salty and tasted like it wasn't house made but did what was needed. The filet was beautifully cooked, the seafood risotto was fantastic, seasoned well pumped full of sea food and topped with prawns. The service was quite good even though our server was quite busy she was attentive enough to have an enjoyable evening, and other then the speed of the appetizers all was in good time. We will happily be back. Thanks for delicious steaks

Good menu, good service, nice surroundings. I like everything except the flight of stairs to access the place.
