    Zehnder's is the best birthday celebration place for our family!! The food is amazing and we love the Christmas decor. Our waitress Madison was incredible, and she said she's only been working one month! She did a great job. We will definitely be back.

    We love to visit Frankenmuth every year, and it is a tradition of ours to eat at Zehnder's. The family style Chicken Dinner is very filling and tasty. Memories from my childhood still flood my mind when visiting Frankenmuth. Zehnder's ambience will put everyone in the mood for the Holidays. The Christmas Decor is beautiful this time of year (November), and seeing horse drawn carriages along the streets as the glow of Christmas lights light your path downtown to all your favorite little shops, will surely lift your spirits and prepare you for this joyful time of year.

    We had the family style chicken dinner and everything was outstanding tasting today! Our server, Lincoln, made sure we had everything we needed and more! Excellent birthday celebration meal! I love making Zehnder’s a part of my yearly birthday tradition.

    The waitress was not the best. She was very flakey. We sat with no drinks in the beginning and at one point she said 2 separate times she would come back for refills and didn’t return for about 30 minutes after we had our food. Service was horrible. Having 3 kids 7 and under; it was not a great experience at all. Will probably not be back for awhile sadly. This is a place we frequent!

    The food was not really that great and pretty expensive. I think the only reason people go here is just for the Frankenmuth experience. Although I don’t know why it ever became a thing because the food is on the low end of mediocre. I guess I can say I’ve been there and now I don’t ever have to go again. Same goes for the Bavarian Inn across the street. It’s exactly the same kind of food. You are paying for the serving staff to be dressed up in Bavarian style clothing. Won’t go again.

    I made reservations for 1:15 and waited maybe 10 minutes. The service, food and seating were great. Giving the restaurant was very crowded, everything was wonderful. Staff was very friendly and on top of things. The store was jammed but lines went fast, which was great. Happy holidays 🎄
