Cafe Katja is a cozy little restaurant with a warm, intimate feel to it. A great place for a quiet drink and snacks or a romantic meal, the menu largely features German and Austrian classics like beef goulash, weiner schnitzel, homemade liverwurst, meatballs and soft pretzels. Not your typical beer garden, the restaurant is a nice place to enjoy a pleasant meal in a nice ambiance. They take reservations for parties of six and more. To reserve a table, give them a call.

Citysearch Editorial Profile – This romantic Argentinean spot in Williamsburg serves up seriously big steaks as well as empanadas, pastas and more; it also features brunch and a backyard.
Wonderful Food, Wonderful People – I live in the neighborhood, and this is my favorite local restaurant. They have an excellent selection of beers. The food ranges from good to outstanding (I am fond of the beet salad and the various sausages). Their desserts are superb - leave some room for the cake at the end! While the space if tiny and the wait can get fairly long on busy nights (they don't take reservations), the service is always efficient and cheerful. It's a pleasure to eat here; I try to stop by as often as I can.
Simply the Best! – From the moment you walk through the door you are made to feel special by the owner and an amazing staff! Usually crowded due to it's immense popularity, and it's small size. These traits somewhat lend themselves to the restaurants atmosphere. Also nice is that the crowd has alot of regulars who are courteous and friendly as well. In a city where good german/austrian fare is becoming harder to find, this place has filled the gap and is probably the #1 restaurant of it's type in the city! The "Spaetzle mit ... read more
Great food and atmosphere, very attentive staff – This is a great spot on the Lower East Side. I went there the 3rd time this week (1st and 2nd time was months and weeks ago) and the staff actually remembered me and made sure my friends and I were extremely well taken care of. The service is attentive, the beer is the best I have had in New York so far and the prices are relatively cheap for New York. Pretzels, Spaetzle and Sausages, can recommend them all. Make sure you try one of the liquoers after dinner.
Citysearch Editorial Review – Beer-induced boisterousness infuses this teensy cafe popular with downtown carousers and i-bankers alike. The snug, 25-chair eatery's no bigger than a railroad apartment, so prepare for long waits during prime supping hours. Like meat? Like beer? Good, because there's little else on this limited, rustic-Austrian menu. Thankfully, the brews are stellar, such as caramel-note Aventinus, which waiters pour into appropriate glassware. For accompaniment, skip the slapdash cheese plate and opt for a co... read more
Small, quaint, and utterly charming – I stumbed into this restaurant with my friends after party hopping. It is open late, the staff are WONDERFUL (even chatting with us about the hand-crafted pottery made by the co-owner), and the atmosphere is delightful. I'm vegan, and it's pretty hard to get vegan Austrain food. With only a slight adjustment to some of the veg dishes, I could indulge and enjoy. The pretzels are to die for, and they make this killer beet salad (and I loathe beets--seriously). I love this place the prices ... read more
Delicious, intimate, and a bargain. – This tiny newcomer to Orchard Street has astonishingly refined -- particularly for the very low prices -- Austrian food. Don't miss the Ausschnitt Teller, a selection of sliced meats, sausages and homemade pickles - wonderful for sharing over a glass of wine or beer. The menu is small but comprehensive. Being Austrian, it's naturally heavy on meats and sausages, but salads are delicious, as is the hard-to-find (in this country, anyway) spaetzle. Great spot for a light dinner or lingering... read more
Best Austrian charm – If you're looking for a piece of Austria, you've found the right place. It's a home away from home for visiting and local countryman/woman which adds to it's charm. A quaint neighborhood bar with nibbles expertly prepared by proffesionals. They have an exciting beer line up and a most graceful, friendly staff. Love it.
