Great customer service, has inside and outside seating, the restaurant is in shipping containers. Food is absolutely stunning, had to go back for seconds!

We don't normally go abroad to eat German food. But after 2 weeks of road trip the name “The Lübecker” was too tempting. So we stopped here on Saturday evening after the Bengals game. Big praise for the currywurst, which could also compete well in Germany. The Lübeck cheese spaetzle, on the other hand, wasn't really our thing, but the city of Lübeck isn't known for its spaetzle in Germany either. Of course the whole thing is a snack, but the presentation with the containers is a success. When the weather is nice, you can sit here and get a good beer in the adjacent sports bar. It's a shame that the German owner wasn't there. But the staff present was also super friendly. So a big recommendation from us, for Germans. 😉

We ate at the Lubecker as part of an OTR food tour and this was our favorite stop! Olaf specially prepared a sampler of popular dishes and each one tasted great. It's clear that Olaf is passionate about making authentic German food and it was reflected in the quality of the food!

The atmosphere was great, the staff was friendly, but the Currywurst was awful. The sausage had no flavor and the sauce had a bitter aftertaste and tasted too fruity to be authentic. Only took a couple bites before throwing it away, unfortunately. The person I was with also threw it away.

We stopped in briefly for a brat with sauerkraut and a soft pretzel with mustard and cheese spread. These two items were as divinely perfect and German as they could ever be, especially for such an unassuming place.

The food was mediocre at best the mettwurst was undercooked and the potato salad what's not German and the currywurst was nothing more than spicy barbecue sauce on over cooked braut slices....... Would not recommend this place to

Had a great experience. This restaurant is located within Queen City Radio bar so seating is outside. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, everything was amazing.

It's good, but it's a food truck in a bar and the website is a little deceptive about that. Now, that said, the curry wurst was great but they lack German staples like red

The German Bratwurst and Potato salad was delicious! Great deal for the price! The bratwurst melts in your mouth and is wonderfully seasoned! Potato salad was mouth watering good! Perfect blend of seasoning and consistency!

Stopped by for a quick dinner before the opera. Food was very good. If not so hot, dining in the biergarten would have been a good option.

Excellent food, at the mercy of Queen City Radio if you're not caring out, which was fine for us, cool day overall.
