Please read all of my comments... Based upon the name of the restaurant, I had very high expectations for great German food and beer. This place does not really offer  much of either. However, the food was outstanding, beer selection is average at best. Please adjust your expectations and give this place a try.
Review Source:A very interesting place, this Bier Haus.
The food was pretty decent, although I had a poutine (gravy-covered fries with cheese curds) Â The curds didn't seem warm enough, and the potatoes were large jo-jo-type fries that didn't seem cooked enough. Â I mentioned to the server who agreed that regular fries would be a better execution. Â The other food that came to our table seemed to look nice.
The part that was bizarre was the karaoke (Friday night). Â I had assumed Bier Haus was angling for an upscale Euro-american bistro feel, but the karaoke added a very awkward twist. Â I will admit, I was dragged up to the microphone by some friends, but I still don't think it fits what I would expect for this type of restaurant, and it detracted from the atmosphere more than it added.
This place is great for a casual non-chain meal. I must say that on my first visit I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't much German fare. If you use the German spelling "Bier", own it! However, after trying the food, I have no complaints. Love that the chef puts twists on contemporary fare. Their sausages are super tasty. I've been a few times and have enjoyed my meal each time.
I saw one review saying the place was a hole in the wall. Now I have a husband who LOVES hole in the wall establishments. I assure you. This place is no hole in the wall. It's not fancy, but definitely a clean casual place to grab dinner. Give it a try!
Very friendly place with a good draft beer selection and yummy sounding menu. This place was a welcome surprise after failing to get any service at Brew Kettle. Come here for a more relaxed craft beer experience with more refined food.
I will be back next time I am in town and intend to order food next time. I also recommend the flight of beers if you're not sure you want to commit to a full pint.
The skinny: nice place and good food.
We went with another couple on a Sunday. Before the meal the server brought pretzel bread to the table - very delicious! Hard to beat the schnitzel special for $12.50 which included mashed potatoes, carrots and a beer (Spaten for me). All items were perfectly cooked. Also ordered at our table was the hamburger: properly cooked-to-order and flavorful. Nice to see a good quality bacon used too. I add that the burger cost includes french fries though that is not indicated on the menu. A nice surprise as the fries were crisp and had a hint of rosemary - very nice. Glad to see a family-owned place giving it a try. We spoke with the owners who were helping seat people and bus tables. Recommended.
Well, WHEN I go back I will definately have to try their homemade sausages and schnitzel. Â Unfortunately, their chicken paprikash didn't hit the mark for me.
I know, I know, they aren't my hungarian grandmother. Â I'm biased, and it's hard to hold a spoon to her cooking. And I appreciate the chef's modern spin on this classic/timeless dish. Â The dumplings were just not what I expected. Â Rather heavy, almost like a gnocchi. Â Should be fluffier, and less dense.
Their cucumber salad was different, rather delicious. Â WISH THERE WAS MORE OF IT! Â Exclamation point.
The sauce which was surrounding the chicken had a bit of a smoky flavor to it. Â It didn't resonate well with me.
Unfortunately, my chicken was a tad undercooked, with a hint of pink in the middle. Â I failed to mention this to the wait staff, my fault. Â I'm sure they would have taken care of it. Â For that I give them a lot of credit.
LOVED LOVED LOVED their tomato bisque with fennel. Â WOULD HAVE LICKED THE BOWL if no one was watching. Â 5 stars, Bier Haus. Â AMAZING.
And how could I forget the beautiful, homemade, warm, soft, chewy, tintilizing pretzel rolls they serve? Â With a mustardy, sweet, sugary butter.... Â I can't describe it any better than that. Â Go get some.
Friendly, helpful, and homey. Â WILL go back. Â Will be trying the schnitzel!
Thank you for bringing a non-chain restaurant to Strongsville! My husband and I were not sure what to expect, this is in small shopping plaza and they were not very crowded. We were blown away with the flavorful entrees! They give you this yummy pretzel bread, and we had the potato pancake appetizer, although you could not taste the potato too much, they were dressed nice and presented particularly and didn't let down our palette.
I had the Apple Butter Cod and loved it, my husband had the chicken paprikash, which looked a lot different than traditional fare. I would describe this as traditional German dishes with a modern almost fusion flare! We absolutely loved the food, the Chef is creative and partnered flavors together that were very nice on the tongue. The chicken pap almost had a smokey, bbq flavor to it, and it was a bone in chicken. Everything on the menu sounded so good it took a while to decide. Everything was flavorful and fresh. We tried 2 biers on tap, the German and the czech one and they were also delish.
Another great thing about this place, was the atmoshphere and service. Our server, Shannon I think, was very pleasant and thoughtful and the owner even came over to ask us how everything was and told us about specials they have on Wednesday. This was above and beyond what we expected and we will be back here soon!
Prices of entrees seemed to hover around 14- 15.00 and the portions were enough but not over the top, but if you like to stuff yourself you might want to get an appetizer or dessert. We are so excited about this new addition!
An interesting addition to the south side of Strongsville. Â It's a nice alternative to the chain restaurant options that we're surrounded by. Â However, with this, I find the biggest problem the selection on the menu. Â It was pretty limited, however the website shows many more options than weren't on the menu at the restaurant. Â Perhaps they're new or coming soon, which would be good. Â
Their food prices are a bit on the high end (for the area), however they do have happy hour twice a day with $1 off drafts (varies depending on day of week). Â
Besides that, the atmosphere is nice and cozy with an 'interesting' decor. Â There is a lot of 'Americana' (think rooster prints on canvas with a checkered border) that IMO needs to go. Â It doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the wall art and style of restaurant. Â Then again, I don't think that should belong anywhere besides my crafty aunt's basement.
Very excited to have a new non-chain family owned restaurant in Strongsville!
The Bier House Euro-American Bistro is a pub style casual dining restaurant. They have a variety of draft beers (15) and bottles (18). They only serve draft beers in pints.
For a restaurant that is just opening they really seem to have it together. We were seated by a very friendly hostess and our server was knowledgeable about the menu even though they had just opened and were still trying new things.
My friend and I split the garden salad ($7.95). The romaine lettuce wasn't sliced and came out whole on the plate in about 4 pieces. The lemon herb vinaigrette was homemade and delicious. The salad also had fried capers and feta cheese on it. They had a variety of other salads all about $8.
I ordered the Bier Hause Burger - 100% angus beef, cheddar cheese, onion, lettuce, and pickle ($9.95). The burger was cooked to perfection and awesome. The frites served on the side were AWESOME! They ran out of ketchup and went out to go get it instead of telling us they didn't have it...good sign of customer service!
The entrees ranged from $11.95-$18.45, sandwiches & wurts $9.95, and appetizers range from $7.95 - $11.95.
I am looking forward to going back soon and trying beir-haus mac & cheese - Roasted chicken, grape tomatoes, fresh spinach, herbs in a Bier Cheese sauce.....sounds yummy!!!!
