We stumbled into Schilo's for breakfast and were pleasantly surprised! The fluffy pancakes were a highlight, and the root beer was a hit with the kids. Fast service and friendly staff made our visit enjoyable... Can't wait to try lunch next time!

Schilo's German-Texan Restaurant is a treasure tucked in the Tower Life Building! 🇩🇪✨ I visited for breakfast, and everything was delicious - from the fluffy pancakes to the French toast with scrambled eggs. The service was stellar, and my kids couldn’t get enough of their root beer!

The cozy, historic atmosphere made it perfect for family dining. Just a tip: get there early to avoid the line! Can’t wait to try lunch next time; the kielbasa and pretzels looked amazing... Highly recommend! 🍻🥨
