" The ambiance was perfect, cozy yet elegant, a great place for a casual dining experience. I ordered the steak frites, which were cooked well. My friend tried the escargot and rated it 10/10! I would definitely say it’s a little pricey for a casual meal, but the quality makes it worth it. I've noticed they offer a lovely selection of wines too. The service was very attentive without being intrusive. Highly recommend, just come prepared to spend a bit more. " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated our anniversary at Fritz & Frites Bistro, and it exceeded our expectations! The ambiance was cozy and romantic, making it perfect for our special night. I ordered the weiner schnitzel, and it was the best I’ve ever had—crispy and tender. My husband loved the duck paté as an appetizer. Our server was delightful and attentive. We ended the meal with the chocolate cake, which was to die for! Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're in Galena, you have to stop by Fritz & Frites! The wienerschnitzel was the best I have had outside of Wien itself. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was cozy. Plus, they have an excellent selection of German beers! I tried both the beef and chicken, and the flavor was decadent. It's a bit of a hidden gem amidst all the tourist spots, and I can't recommend it enough. We’ll be back next year! " (*Curated Review*)

" A cozy atmosphere with an inviting vibe awaits at Fritz & Frites. We enjoyed a very nice dinner, and I must say, the portions were generous. I tried the seafood dish of the day, which I absolutely loved! However, my friend ordered the pork, and it was a touch dry. Nevertheless, I would definitely recommend this restaurant—best in Galena! " (*Curated Review*)

" Went here for dinner last week. The decor is charming, and the outdoor patio is perfect for summer evenings. The food presentation was impressive, but I found the flavors lacking in depth. I had the chicken schnitzel and felt that it could use more seasoning. The service was friendly, and they did have a decent selection of wines. I might want to try it again to see if my dish varies next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" A quaint little gem in Galena! I visited a few weeks ago and was absolutely taken by the culinary delight here. The homemade bread was incredible, and I had the escargot as an appetizer—it didn't disappoint! The beer selection was vast and paired well with my main course, the pork schnitzel. My only regret was being too full for dessert, but I’ve heard nothing but great things about their cakes. The service was impeccable and made us feel right at home. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely delightful dining experience! Each bite was a wonderful revelation, starting with the soup which was rich and comforting. The emphasis on traditional German flavors brought me back to my travels in Europe. I highly recommend the schweinshaxe. The texture was spot on, paired excellently with traditional sides. I can’t wait to visit again. If you're after real German cuisine, look no further. " (*Curated Review*)
