   We were pleasantly surprised that our 3:30 p.m. reservation was honored in a timely manner given the amount of people at the restaurant. We were greeted by such pleasant staff, with a special shout out to Janice who was ever so kind to accommodate us with a table that was better suited for my father who has uses a scooter. Our server was a pleasant person and right on top of the game! We all ordered the "Frankenmuth Chicken Dinner" (family style) and it was even better than last year. Very tender and not greasy! We definitely prefer Bavarian Inn over the Zehnder's. Perfect way to start the holiday season, we'll be back.

   Anita was out of this WORLD AMAZING!!!! Last year we had such a horrible experience, so glad we came back she did a fantastic job. You are lucky to have her for the 5 years, such a hard worker!!! We are from Grand Rapids, so it's worth the drive!

   We had a very special and memorable meal for my family of 12. Our servers were friendly, eager to provide anything anyone wanted. Our servers, Amber and Christina, treated us like they were happy that we were dining at this beautiful restaurant. While eating our meal, a gentlemen with an accordion roamed around the dining room. The ambience was festive, fun and it was clear everyone was enjoying the food and music (people clapped when a pause had occurred in the music). Coming here is a family tradition, and this was probably our best time so far. Food was DELICIOUS- fresh. I read a comment someone thought the "bread was moldy"... that can be understandable as there is a fresh bread with fruit and nuts in it, with a sugary powder on top. The baked goods are very, very fresh- there is a bakery on site. The chicken was cooked just right and the egg noodles, the dish I really love, were good, but a little more butter would have "kicked it up a notch." The cranberry relish and cole slaw was delicious/not heavy, balances out some of the heavier dishes. I like the dressing, potatoes and gravy. The squash dish was yummy, but more like a dessert (decadent). Thank you for a very, very special meal. We are looking forward to our next visit. If you happen to have Amber or Christina- you are in for a treat. Lots of smiles, attentive service, friendly bantor which makes you feel like you are eating at a friends home. The Opentable reservation option is GREAT- use it. It allows you to get a table, especially for a large group, in minutes.

   Took two hours from start to finish with dinner. Yes it was busy but guests were seated after us and leaving before us. The wait was unacceptable and very small portions for a family of four.

   I would prefer a phone call to discuss versus a public review. Thanks!

   I placed 11:30am reservations 3 weeks prior with a request for a window view, and possibly in the red room. We arrived to a mostly empty restaurant, brought into the Eidelweis Room, and sat next to the kitchen! I paid over $400 to bring my family for a nice meal, like we do every year and brought someone that hasn't been in years, but was sat in the worst possible place that did not meet either of my requests. The meals in my opinion are mediocre for $32/person. I'm thinking we'll just skip Bavarian Inn from now on.
