“Best German Restaurant in America” title goes to Bavarian Grill of Plano, Texas

Over 400 German restaurants, located throughout the United States participated in this first year of the search for the “Best German Restaurant in America”.  Bavarian Grill, located in Plano, Texas, near Dallas – Fort Worth garnered almost one third of all the validated votes cast during the two-month online voting period.  They also received the majority of positive judging forms from “undercover judges”, and the restaurant scored well with teams of expert judges who dined incognito at the highest scoring German restaurants.  Health Department inspections were also reviewed to confirm a consistent “A” rating for the restaurant.  

The goal of the annual competition, according to Inga Bowyer, president of GermanDeli.com, is to recognize German restaurants that serve up a truly ethnic experience.  “Millions of US citizens trace their ancestry back to Germany.  It’s only fitting that we celebrate restaurants that connect us with that heritage,” said Bowyer, who was born in Germany and whose online German food store hosted the contest. 

After scoring highest among all German restaurants in Texas in the ZAGAT Surveys® 2006, 2007, and 2008, and being voted #1 Ethnic Food by the Plano Star Courier’s Choice Award in 2008 and 2009, the latest recognition is their biggest yet, according to Juergen Mahneke, who along with wife, Elke, has been welcoming guests since 1993.After receiving the great news Mr. Mahneke said: “My team and I thank all of our loyal, passionate guests who support us not only with regular visits, but also their votes.. And thanks also to our entire team who work hard so that our guests leave smiling, and want to return with their friends soon.”

According to Bowyer, Bavarian Grill’s classic German entrees like schnitzel, sauerbraten, bratwurst, and roasted ham hock are complimented by a selection of over 50 different imported German beers. “They top it all off with nightly live music with a distinctly Bavarian vibe. We like their sense of fun, which is not only visible during this Oktoberfest time, but all year long,“ said Bowyer, who will present the award to Bavarian Grill on October 14 along with representatives of competition co-sponsors, Spaten and Franziskaner Breweries, and telecommunications company, Telna.
