    Absolutely delicious! This is a photo of the Buffalo chicken ciabatta sandwich.  Highly recommend.  Hot sauce to blue cheese ratio .

    Josh. Was very helpful and attentive. (Our server). I have not dined here for years. This place offers traditional "German" foods along with a plethora of menu options - beer and dessert specialties. It's easy to forget you're dining inside a mall. Definitely will revisit soon!

    Food and service were great! The overall ambiance was very pleasant the place had a early 2000s feel

    Is it so hard to just look at the label. At the Dunderbak's Restaurant at the Lehigh Valley Mall.

    06/07/24 @12:13PM We sat at the bar - SHAYLA N. served us. She was also training someone at the same time. She forgot to give me silverware & mustards - which is why you go to the Dunderbak. It is the only German restaurant in like a 50 mile radius. I think there is one on South Street in Philadelphia which serves Schnapps & authentic German/Bavarian dishes. This is ONLY a beer bar. 4 STARS for Shayla N. I come here for the Weinkraut & hotdogs. They also have an excellent selection of Mustards. I am the type of person that loves hotdogs with my mustard & weinkraught -- not the other way around. lol The service was so-so. Our waitress was friendly but forgot my silverware & the $13 St.Bernardus abbey 12 that was on tap was skunked. I had to send it back & get myself a bottled beverage. Then i asked a perfectly legitimate question about their weinkraught. I just asked if it was fermented in wood barrels or in cans. She said 'cans.' Then I asked her where is it from? Is it from Germany or Lancaster? She didn't know. So I asked Jacob, who's been working there for 4 years, where the weinkraught is sourced from - he didn't know either. I asked he could be so kind & check the label. He responded by saying, 'yea, & then you can teach me how to read, too.' I thought to myself - you're an absolute dick. And when I called him out on his patronizing attitude, he told me he was 'just being silly.' And I thought, I'm not your friend - I don't know you; a restaurant employee should not talk to people like that. ONE STAR for Jacob. I'd like a response from the manager about this experience. I'm posting the same review on GOOGLE, TripAdvisor & OpenTable. Overalll the food was good, the hotdog, the weinkraught, the perogies - ALL excellent. It was the condescending attitude of the MALE server that was annoying. I've been coming here for 20 years & ya know what, I don't think I'll be coming back. The manager didn't even come over to me & apologize for the $13 skunked Belgian beer. It's like - what world do we live in that every staff member in these restaurants have this condescending & complacent attitude towards customers? My humblest regards, Kyle David

    Birthday dinner party with Tara and Steph (Dunderbak's crew)

    We celebrated my husband's 50th birthday at Dunderbak's this year. We have had a few little birthday dinners there in the past and it's always been delicious, fun, with great service. This year we wanted to do something a little extra special, and the Dunderbak's team delivered!! It was a great dinner party. They were so accommodating for our large group and Tara and Steph did a phenomenal job taking care of us. Beer, food, friends, and fun- best birthday ever!

    Very cool to have a German restaurant in a large shopping mall. The days of non-chain restaurants in the mall seemed to have died 30 years ago, so that is great it is here. I'm an avid German food eater, so when I see one in town I stop by. I ordered the pork shank with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes. The pork shank was also covered in a bed of reddish gravy. The pork meat was good. The skin had a soft, slow cooker type exterior. I could be wrong, but the mashed potatoes had the texture of being microwaved. The sauerkraut meshed so-so with the meal. The meal was adequate.

    Food is not German, I make a lot of the dishes they had on menu and claim to be German...it is not even close.

    I always find this restaurant to be great with a side of historical nostalgia. It feels connected…read moreto the history of the area - especially to the Germantown/Deutschtown neighborhood on the northside. There is a large menu here with a lot of German specialities. I got the fish sandwich this time. It was good, but needed a little more spice. The sides here are great -- I'm particular to the einlauf soup (similar to Jewish matzah ball), the homemade chunky applesauce, and the potato pancakes. I have had a stuffed cabbage entree here also when it was offered as a special. This might be a harder restaurant to come to if you are a vegetarian, as there is a lot of meat on the menu -- also a lot of pork and pork sausage, etc for anyone who doesn't eat this. I found there are many other options though for those who eat chicken, fish, or beef. There also is a full bar here and the bar itself is the most nostalgic looking element to the restaurant. Prost!

    We tried it a few months ago and the food was just ok, but we thought we'd give them another…read morechance. I got reminded I wanted to try it one more time after the last review Their hostess needs some training. We got there, she said that they had tables but she was "trying to give the servers a break." I kept asking how long of a wait there would be and she said, "I don't know." We took our chances and waited for about 20 minutes watching her braid her own hair and 3-4 tables leaving before another wait staff finally came out and asked hostess, "have you given them a time?" She told her no and then the woman said, "it's going to be 45 minutes to an hour." We left after having wasted enough time. This place used to be great and we went about once every other month, but now their staff doesn't seem to know what they are doing and we didn't even get a chance to try the food it again.
