Great schnitzel is hard to find outside of Bavarian cities like Kimberly, which is why I’m happy to say I’ve finally found a place. Not only is the schnitzel delicious at Wiener-Schnitzel Haus, but they also serve six different variations on the traditional German dish. One thing to note is the portions are huge; an order of schnitzel covers the entire plate! 
Along with a side of spatzle, a schnitzel could be easily shared. Which I’d recommend doing, because really what is schnitzel without spatzle? The meal came with a side of Austrian salad; a delicious mix of salads including beet, potato, and coleslaw. The salads had perfect spicing, and I regret being too full to finish it. The waitress, who also happened to be one of the owners, was friendly and attentive the entire meal, giving suggestions on choices, refilling waters, and chatting with us pleasantly. Then there was her desserts, amazing and made with pride. You could tell she put love and care into her desserts. She even had a 
seasonal twist available, a raspberry cream in the Cardinal cake instead of a coffee cream. I, however, as a coffee enthusiast had to try the coffee variation on the Cardinal Slice, “biscuit layers with apricot glaze, coffee cream and meringue.” This went deliciously with the dessert coffee I ordered called an Einspanner, real Viennese coffee!
The offerings at the Wiener-Schnitzel Haus are expensive; $21 for the Wiener Schnitzel with fries and salad, Spatzle with Mushroom Sauce was $12, dessert is $9.50, and the Einspanner coffee is $4.
Nestled in a strip mall at 4703 Bowness Road NW, next to Notables, the Wiener Haus is only open Tuesday though Saturday from 4pm to 9pm. Thats it!
Wiener-Schnitzel Haus is a small independent restaurant with the best Schnitzel I have tasted in Calgary, and desserts that I would gladly drive from far south to enjoy.
