Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Frankenmuth

We went to the Bavarian Inn the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend. Frankenmuth and the restaurant were packed. But we got seated right on time per our reservation, the food came quick and was great, and our waitress Elise was wonderful. Even Santa stopped by our table to wish us Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas.

A unique dining experience; excellent food served with style! The disparate menu includes items not found in many restaurants in this area. The atmosphere evokes fine dining and the table service was exemplary. The menu prices are considerably higher than normal but the quality of food and standard of preparation and service helps to mitigate this.

Deb is a fabulous server! She was very attentive, helpful and happy. Our food was so great! We both ate dishes we’d never tried before (the turkey wrap and Chef Chopped Salad) with the exception of the French onion soup which is a must whenever we go there! We wish they had prepurchase gift cards like The H Hotel does!! Can’t wait for our next meal there! And again, we loved Deb as our server!

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.

The cuisine at One Eighteen is a symphony of flavors; each dish more exquisite than the last. We look forward to the menu change over just to see what new hits the chef has come up with. The cocktails are a masterful blend of art and alchemy. Ethan, our waiter last night, not only demonstrates impeccable timing but is a true maestro of hospitality. Alas, we did not have the opportunity to discuss the true nature of strawberries with him. Perhaps next time?
