Mecklenburg Gardens Restaurant is a charming spot that offers a taste of Germany right in Cincinnati! 🇩🇪
I recently visited for dinner and was pleasantly surprised by the cozy atmosphere, especially in the beautiful outdoor bier garden. The highlight for me was the giant pretzel paired with beer cheese - absolutely delightful!
While I found the schnitzel a tad overcooked, the mushroom spaetzle with grilled chicken was a hit at the table. Our server, Jennifer, was a gem, providing attentive service throughout the evening.
Perfect for families or a night out with friends! I can't wait to return! 🍻
