Gaby’s German Eatery in Colorado

"This is the closest "Eatery" to a home cooked meal/back Street European restaurant you can or will find outside of Europe/Germany. It's like sitting in a cafe lost in time. The food is absolutely amazing! Every item I've tried is authentic and cooked with love. The food is epic. Do yourself a favor, make a reservation and enjoy some company for a few hours."

"Gaby’s is simply sehr gut!!! A culinary and cultural treasure! Limited seating so reservations are important, plus you get to visit with Gaby on the phone. She brought her family recipes over to Denver 12 years ago and they’re so authentic and yummy! If she’s not too busy (she does it all in the restaurant) visit with her about the family photos on the walls. And definitely come hungry so you can try everything!"

"Best restaurant in Lakewood? Fantastic dinner at Gaby’s! This is *the spot* for German food. Home cooking at its finest. Everything we got was great, the schnitzel and stroganoff with pierogis were both so good. I could eat that potato salad by the tub. Can’t wait to return and try the pork hock that you have to call in 3 days in advance! Be sure to make a reservation before you go!"

"Seems family owned, excellent service, really flavorful food, and clean everywhere. The lady working there does speak German. The menu is plentyful. If you have some German food in mind, the server will make sure it's cooked to your liking and check back to check on you. They're really sweet. Highly recommend this location. Call ahead to make an appointment."

"Make reservations! Call a few days in advance, leave a message, and they’ll call you back to confirm. It’s a small eatery with a small staff that treats you like family so they have to be ready. It’s worth the effort and the wait. The schnitzel is amazing and the other dishes are great as well."

"Gaby’s German Eatery in Lakewood is a cozy, family-run spot that absolutely deserves 10 stars. The beef stroganoff and brats were rich, hearty, and full of flavor, and the homemade cake with cherries was incredibly delicious even though the exact name escapes me. The homemade lemonade was a standout because it tasted fresh and bright without being loaded with sugar, which made it especially refreshing. The staff were super friendly and very accommodating, making the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. The restaurant is quite small, so it really feels like you’re getting a little slice of Germany in an intimate, family setting. Because there are only a few tables and it can get busy, it is definitely worth making a reservation if you plan to come during the day or at peak times; on my visit I just happened to arrive during a slower moment and grabbed the one open table."

"It is like being in your grandma's kitchen. The food is amazing and German beer. The owners are so genuine and care what they are presenting to you. Happened to be there on a day they had summer soups. I picked Cucumber and dill, it was so refreshing and tasty."

"Absolutely delicious. We are there for a second time yesterday and the food was as amazing as it was last winter when we came by for the first time. Everything is flavorful and tastes fresh, and nothing is laden down with sugar (including the lemonade and desserts). You can tell that the food is made from scratch. It’s just that good. Make sure you have a reservation, as they are much preferred over walk-in."
