Howards Cafe - Port Orange

I can't believe I walked by this place a million times. When I noticed there was a cafe there I noticed their hours worked pretty much the same as mine so it took me a while to get there. I finally had the opportunity to enjoy their food and not only was I surprised beyond measure but it took me back to my childhood. You see I was born in Germany and I have yet to find a restaurant in America that makes German food so authentically. They're even up to the times offering vegan and vegetarian options including a vegan schnitzel that is mouth watering! The staff is friendly the place is unique and the music is from the old country. Although it's a little pricey it's worth every penny. Definitely returning.

We were looking for something a little different for dinner tonight and decided to try Rhein-Stube in Port Orange. The restaurant is on the smaller side space wise, and was packed which was a good sign! We got seated right away and ordered drinks and a small appetizer. We got the Spundekas which was a warm pretzel roll with a cheese spread. So. Good. For our entrees, my husband got the Pfefferahmschnitzel. It has a nice peppercorn sauce and it came with spatzel and some carrots and I got the Rahmschnitzel (Pictured below) that had a rich bacon cream sauce, spatzel and carrots. Our entrees also came with a small side salad with cabbage, cranberries and a vinegar based dressing. Both schnitzels were cooked really well and were super tasty and tender. While the schnitzels are certainly the star of the show here, I feel like I need to take a second and talk about the carrots. They were amazingly good. I would absolutely just get a large bowl of these things to eat. They were cut razor thin and were so sweet. Just delicious. We could absolutely tell that the chef puts a lot of love into making these traditional dishes, and our server was amazing as well! I absolutely ate too much and I feel like I need a nap from all of the delicious food. Thanks for such a great experience. We'll definitely be back soon!

They have a vegan/vegetarian menu!!! I had the vegan schnitzel, amazing My first time trying schnitzel and I am definitely going back! Great service, family atmosphere, a bit pricey but definitely worth it

Fantastic place, great atmosphere! I've been there twice, and will go regularly. Very nice servers serving large portions of excellent food. Small, hidden, and pricey, but definitely worth finding!
