Always great food and great service!
Steph is awesome. Great friendly service! Super variety of beer. Delicious German food.
The prices are right for my budget and the store is clean
Tried going here today, 6/1/25. Their website says they open at 11am on Sunday. DO NOT USE THIS INFORMATION FROM THEIR WEBSITE. The mall opens at 12 noon…. Therefore the restaurant opens at noon. Dunderbak’s please correct your website.
Food and beer were delicious!
First time eating here with the fam and the food was pretty good. Staff were amazing and so so sweet. The decor makes you feel like you’re in Europe.
Delicious food, and amazing people who work here. They know everything about kindness and customer service.
Took sauerbraten off the menu-schnitzel is flavorless-sausages are boring-after 30+ years can't imagine going there again
Update: response to managers reply. While, I commend you for responding, but your response and information are inaccurate.
The restaurant was dead with only four tables being served inside, and maybe five people at the bar. So, it was not a full restaurant. While it may have been busier earlier, I don't know. But, I would think your staff would be able to handle the few customers there. As far as the mold on the ceiling tile, it was absolutely mold, green, black, and gray. I know what a water stain looks like. When I mentioned it to your employee in the bathroom her response was, owners are in their 90’s and they don’t come to the restaurant. The staff is doing all they can without the owners investing in repairs. We’ve been customers for over 30+ years, this was very disappointing to see such a decline in service, food, and atmosphere.
I don’t typically leave negative reviews, but last night was horrible from the service to the food and then the severely moldy bathroom. When ordering our food as we were sitting down the server suddenly asked if it was a to-go order. My husband and I just looked at her very confused and said no. The food is not what it once was. We were served barely cooked kielbasa on a hot dog roll, potato pancakes soaked with grease, and burnt (black) pretzel bites. When I asked the server if the pretzel bites looked burnt she replied yes, sorry about that. We did have them removed from the bill. Then I tried to use the sweet mustard the bottle was caked with so much dry hard mustard when I finally got it open and wiped away the crust the mustard popped out of the bottle. I grabbed a mustard from Another table it was gross as well but not as bad. When I used the bathroom the mold on the ceiling tiles was disgusting not to mention the old toilets. At one time we looked forward to dining here unless the owner invests time and improvements, we won’t be back.

I'm sorry. I really wanted to love this place. Esp bc they have the elusive sauerbraten.
It was good enough but could use abt 2 more days marinating. My next favorite..potroast, taste was good but the meat and mashed potatoes came floating in a broth-like liquid. FLOATING. it was so confusing as it said gravy..not soup. I was thinking is this a joke, am I on candid camera? The mashed potatoes melted into the soup quick and disappeared. I ate a third and the rest went to the foxes. Come on dunderbak's if you can't make good pot roast gravy you can't even compete with a diner! Where's that German pride??

The food is great, the selection is wonderful, the service is sub par. I have visited 2x and both times have been sat at a booth which is fine. The issues become apparent when the food order is placed. Both times, waittress staff forgot parts of the order, or just took far too long to get the food to us. I'm not sure if that is something that happens consistently overall here or if it was just something I experienced. However after all this, the food was delicious and I would still return. The staff who get you seated are always a pleasure to deal with. It's just the waitress staff. The first waitress acknowledged the issue and even gave us something for free, the second one basically just forgot us in general.

What an amazing place. I have now made it mandatory that we need to stop in at Dunderbak's before we shop. Today I had the pleasure of meeting Autumn our server. Her bright smile and enthusiastic attitude really made my day. Always a good experience when we visit.

This is our go-to place at the mall! We first visited years ago, and it is consistently good food with a nice beer selection. I get the soup and 1/2 sandwich. I love their Hungarian Mushroom soup! But over the years, I have enjoyed them all. The sandwiches are wonderful -deli style, with good bread. Usually, the service is quite good, but this afternoon, 2 weeks before Christmas, they were overwhelmed.
It's definitely a place to try if you haven't been.
