    I purposely made reservations for a 4 PM weekday to beat the rush (have eaten here multiple times in the last 13 years). Five minutes from check-in to being seated. I got the all-you-can-eat chicken dinner, which has breads/salads/chicken noodle soup as appetizers, and mashed potatoes/gravy/stuffing/boiled carrots and onions/egg noodles with breadcrumbs as sides. Even though I had not eaten for 24 hours, I still could not finish the last of the 3 pieces of chicken. I did eat the dish of chocolate ice cream for dessert :-) They still put a plastic animal on the ice cream, even though I am a grown-up. The blue camel will join the giraffe and others collected over the years. Service was great, waitress was personable, answered questions about the town. Zehnder's is justly famous, one of the three things to come to Frankenmuth for (the Bavarian Inn and the fudge are the other two). I am here for a week of vacation, no doubt will eat there again at least once.

    Service at a booth with 3 people and the service started out fine, but our waiter got a large noisy table right next to us and our service ground to a halt. I ended up waiting almost 30 minutes for our bill after we were done you ice cream - my daughter went across the street to shop and came back before i got the bill.

    We were able to sit in the Cowpath Room, which is way more intimate. Although the tables are small for a party of 4 adults, it’s worth the trade to have a quiet seating. The food was good and our server, Marcy, was very pleasant. I’ve been coming to Zehnder’s since I was very little with my family and I can’t think of a better way to spend our birthdays than gathered around a table together sharing a good chicken dinner.

    We were seated so quickly and to the quiet Bar area. Our waiter Zack was so friendly and quick. The food came out to the table quickly and our drinks were never empty. We love visiting Zehnder’s! The all you can eat meal never disappoints!
