Christian and Pamela Schienle, with their son Jagger, have opened Nadine’s, which was formerly Jennifer’s German Restaurant in Yorktown for over thirty years. The Schienle family, residents of Yorktown for many years, have been searching for the perfect location for a sister restaurant to Sel et Poivre in NYC, a French bistro that has been in the family for three decades. With Christian being from Vienna, they decided to create a menu that combines many traditional German dishes from Jennifer’s and French dishes from Sel et Poivre. They also offer a special dish of the night. Nadine is Pamela’s middle name and represents their passion for food, hospitality, family and friends or, as they say in Austria, gemütlichkeit is what Nadine’s does.

Reviews
While visiting friends, we stumbled upon this charming Austrian restaurant. It was our first time there, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The food was delectable, the staff were friendly, and the ambiance was pleasant. The restaurant did get a bit crowded as more people arrived, but it wasn’t overwhelming.
The clientele seemed to be older, and it appeared to be a regular crowd. Many people appeared to know each other, and there was even someone who seemed to be the owner. There was a free parking lot, but it didn’t seem to accommodate a large number of vehicles.
For starters, we had pierogi, escargot, and scallop casserole. I can’t recall the exact flavors of those dishes, but we all finished them without complaint.
For our main courses, we had salmon fillet, seafood ravioli, sauerbraten, and two specials: venison and fried quail. Each of us enjoyed our respective dishes. I particularly liked the seafood ravioli and the sauerbraten. I would definitely return just to have those two dishes.
Everyone had desert and coffee and loved it, I declined as I was too full, but after trying everything, I would definitely return if given the opportunity.
I ordered the sauerbraten and he ordered the jaegerschnitzel with the “magic sauce” (brown sauce without mushrooms). Both came with small sides of red cabbage and spaetzle. They give you big portions, but the food was light and delicious. We ordered the black forest cake & the apple strudel for dessert, which were also delicious. Prices were reasonable given the portions.
The staff was attentive, yet respectful, and treated you like family.
It was well worth the 40-minute ride up there. We look forward to returning soon!
Charming indoors – but outdoors is the way to go. One would expect high quality meats at an “Austrian” eatery – but despite decent preparation and traditional recipes – the quality of meats used led to a sub-optimal eating experience. I had beef and another persona had porscuitto wrapped veal – both well cooked – but the meat cuts themselves were “eh”. By contrast the shrimp appetizer and the 2 seafood entrees were on the spot. But we did not visit a seafood restaurant and Austria is not known for its cod or salmon!!
The senior server seemed disinterested and kind of dismissive when asked questions. Finally the second server took our order and was much better on customer service. The young helper who served the food and bussed the tables was a delightful cheerful fella.
The atmosphere feels cozy, private, and relaxed. Everything is decorated with such charm and attention to detail that it creates a truly unique ambiance. My family and I had a wonderful time, and their beer is excellent too.
They stop serving lunch at 3 PM and reopen for dinner at 6 PM—at least that’s what we observed that day.
Perfect place for a memorable meal !
