That Schnitzel Place

Great schnitzel sandwiches and soup. Very filling. Highly recommended. Could be pricey for some. Your sandwich is made to order, so don’t expect your schnitzel to be ready a minute after you order.

Went to That Schnitzel Place for a family meal and it was wonderful. The gourmet toppings are the highlight of the sandwich and there is so much to choose from!
I did however find the meat portion to be rather «thin» and I know it’s a Schnitzel and the meat has been pounded to be thin — but I was hard pressed to find the chicken in my sandwich.
It did not stop me from finishing the whole thing mind you! But if you’re a real meat lover, you may be disappointed.

They close at 7 pm on weeknights and aren’t open during the weekends, so unless you work downtown you’re not going to get a chance to try this place. perhaps i’m a bit jaded as last saturday I drove 45 minutes through construction etc. only to find they were closed. i suppose I could’ve called first, but then again WHAT KIND OF RESTAURANT ISN’T OPEN ON SATURDAY?
Also, the color and font used for «schnitzel» on their logo is absolutely horrid and dated… BLECH. sure it looked fine on the Tom Cruise Coctail movie cover, but that was 25 years ago!!!

Great sandwiches and great soups.
I was surprised at first because I have never had schnitzel as a sandwich, but it works really really well. The great thing about this place are all the different varieties of sandwich you can order. The schnitzel comes in pork, beef, or mushroom for the vegetarians. And there are different ethnic spins on the sandwich, which of the two I have tried, both have been good. The thai one has sweet chili sauce with cilantro for example.
The cream of mushroom soup I tried was amazing too. A schnitzel sandwich, which is ordered a la carte, combined with a cup of soup, and you’re gonna leave pretty full. You might be turned off by the price of a sandwich, but its big enough on its own that its really filling.
Its too bad that it is in a non ideal part of downtown, although I’m sure it gets enough business from the office crowds. It deserves more attention, and unfortunately people walking only Stephen Ave or 7^th Ave would never know it existed.
I’m glad the city has a sandwich joint that is unique and not another Vietnamese sub, shawarma, or quiznos place.

We had the Olga’s Original, Silk Road, Parthenon and La Dolce Vita. Of course, we had to try each other’s sandwiches! I like Parthenon the best ‘cos of the goat cheese. I am partial to goat cheese! The description of the Parthenon is: Fresh parsley lemon caper pesto; goat cheese; caramelized red onions; sautéed red and green peppers; fresh arugula. I had my Parthenon with a chicken schnitzel. Not too keen on Silk Road as it’s on the sweet side. The La Dolce Vita is not too bad. I have yet to try Olga’s Original as I got too full. Will update later.
These sandwiches are a fair size but they aren’t as big as the original Vienna Lux’s sandwiches. I liked the schnitzel at Vienna Lux better than this place but the difference is that That Schnitzel Place has interesting blending of flavours, vegetables and meat.
We also tried a cup of barley & beef soup and it was quite good. The side salad and their very tasty house-​made salad dressing.
Parking could be a problem as there is only street parking.
Restaurant is only open on Mon to Fri from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. They are not open on weekends. I hope they will eventually.
I’d come back again!

A group of us went here for the first time today and we were all impressed!
That Schnitzel Place has a great selection of schnitzelly good sandwiches. The sandwiches are all priced the same and you choose the type of meat (or portobello mushroom for veggie loving folks) and then select a topping «theme». Each topping theme has a combination of fresh veggies and sauces which are paired perfectly. Portions are good. I think we tried just about every sandwich type and everyone had great things to say about their choice. The schnitzel itself was beautifully fresh and crispy-​and not greasy at all which was nice.
They also have soup and other sides like potato salad. The soup comes in a meal size or a perfectly portioned side size-​a great addition to the sandwich.
The counter staff were friendly and prompt. One of our party members had a small mistake with her sandwich. Not only were they quick to fix it, they also came by later with a voucher for her next meal. Great to see good customer service.
I will definitely be going back there!
