Well here it is. My first and only rating of perfect 10. The review will be short because it really doesn’t matter what you order, it will be good. Very good. I believe this rating will stand up to any challenge so I encourage the other reviewers here to try this place out.

A quick editorial note in the spirit of full disclosure is required at this point. My family is good friends with Mike Turik who owns and operates Old Germany with the rest of his family. They have been on several of the Old Germany sponsored wine tasting trips abroad, regularly attend special tastings and have even volunteered at the annual Oktoberfest they sponsor. I don’t think any of this results in any bias on part because I don’t think they even know who I am and if they did I might be banned due to a minor indiscretion when I was in high school. But I digress..

Old Germany is off the beaten track in Choctaw but is worth drive. It sits in a cute looking German style building and the interior has a warm feel - they even have a really cool “cellar” room that looks like you are in a cave. The wait staff is extraordinary, the beer menu unsurpassed, the wine list untouchable and everything from appetizers to desserts are top rate.
I won’t even bother to describe any particular dish as they are all overwhelming good. Brats, schitnitzels, steaks – there is no wrong way order.

The only drawback to this place is that like all German restaurants – it is not cheap. You will need to be prepared to spend at least $35 per person with wine, dinner, gratuity etc. Their lunch menu is much more affordable but just as tasty, so if you find yourself on a tight budget this is a good way to try the place out for under $12.

My pictures suck but fortunately you can see much better ones at their web site, oldgermany.com as well as view full lunch and dinner menus. There are even pictures of their sponsored wine tours, etc..

So to sum this up, you NEED to get yourself to Choctaw ASAP but just don’t tell Mike I sent ya..
