Had the combo platter, fried chicken was not bad, wasn't a big fan the pork chop, or the vegetables medley. Service was good understaffed our server had way too many tables, but she was very nice. It is very themed with live music read more

This restaurant is located inside of the Bavarian Inn Hotel which makes it a convenient option for breakfast. They had a breakfast buffet this morning and the food was pretty good. The waitress was friendly and attentive. I will try to stop back in for lunch or dinner to try a more traditional meal. read more

The servers were dressed in old Bavarian clothing. The restaurant is still decorated in old Bavarian style with wood furniture. The service was a bit slow. We had to wait quite a bit for our food. But our food came out hot. The popular Frankenmuth fried chicken was crispy, moist, and flavorful. The mash potatoes were good. But the vegetables were a bit too overcooked and bland. The bratwurst was good and the fries were decent. It would nice to have a few more fries on the plate. The chicken salad was good. The best part is their homemade dressing. They bring you a small container with the dressing. My friend used up the dressing on her salad. The sandwich was a bit disappointing. The Mac n cheese was good. read more

Kitchen understaffed, ordered room service was told it would be 30 minutes. After a hour and half still no food. Went down to restaurant to check on status. Manager went back to kitchen and there was no ticket said someone was delivering order at the time. Went back to room waited 15 minutes still no food. Went back to restaurant said the ticket was found and they were plating our meals and would be delivered shortly, waited 30 minutes still no food. Went back down to the restaurant to wait. Food was delivered while I was waiting at the restaurant. The meal was comped for the inconvenience. Restaurant was not busy during this time either. Maybe room service should not be offered at Bavarian inn from Oma's. Needs better management. read more

Very good meal!! I had the NY strip with sautéed veggies. It was great!!! We also got the sampler platter for our appetizer. The food was fantastic!! There wasn't enough on the platter to justify the cost. That was the only negative I had this visit. The bread sticks are great! The entrees were great! Definitely had the feel of Grandma's Kitchen. The staff here are superb as always!! read more

I've been to Oma's twice in the last few years once because our preferred place wasn't seating and another because our preferred place closed and I'm sorry to say I've got so very little positive to say about this place. The food itself isn't anything I'd return for but the real killer is how long it actually takes to get it. When we originally put our name down we were told 30 mins and after 45 we checked in on the wait and they were supposedly getting a table around. We proceeded to wait another 15 mins after that. Once we finally got to the table it took another hour for our food to come out. Not great. On the positive side it is in a hotel so there's plenty of nice seats to sit in at the lobby while you wait and I would say our waiter was nice and did the best he could with everything. Ultimately I never expect much from a touristy restaurant in a hotel - but - yeesh, this was just extra bad both times. There's not a lot of breakfast options in Frankenmuth but do your self a favor and venture out a bit. read more

If you walk around the other side of Oma's Restaurant, you'll see another entrance for the Lorelei Lounge. This is where the bar and live music is. Kids are allowed in until 10 p.m., and there are tables where you can order food from the menu, or you can walk up to the bar and get something to drink. I was just there to enjoy some time alone while my family played at the pool in the hotel. The wine list isn't huge, but the price for a glass of wine is decent: around $6. I got two glasses of Malbec and sat and watched people come in and out. Popcorn is complimentary, but you have to ask the bartender for it. (I didn't want any popcorn.) read more

Indifferent service. Especially the hostess. Mediocre breakfast buffet. My Oma would have been shocked.

My family and I ordered the Margherita Pizza ($28) and a couple of drinks at Oma's Restaurant during dinner. I love Margherita pizza, but unfortunately this one just didn't hit the spot. There wasn't enough of the house tomato herb relish, the crust was hard, and some of the slices were loaded with mozzarella cheese. For drinks, the coffee was good, but the Cosmo tasted like pure alcohol and the Blueberry Mocktail tasted just like Cherry Coca-Cola. Although the food and beverages were mediocre, service was great! Our orders also arrived within 20 minutes. read more

Went there for breakfast a At 10 am New Year's Eve day. 1 hour wait. They did not take reservations. Once seated it took 30 minutes to get water and coffee. We had 8 people including a 2 year old and 9 month old. In all it took an hour to get food, last people served. Kids did great considering. Food was mediocre and service terrible. Save your money, go somewhere else. read more

I ordered the Mac and cheese, tasted like it was straight out of the box. The fries were cold, and it took an hour to get our food. The restaurant was freezing, I was wearing 3 layers and was still cold. read more

The food was bad. My husband had the buffet, which was just your standard basic hotel type of self serve breakfast, very small, basic eggs, bacon, tater tots, sausage, pancake, cereal and fruit. The buffet was typically stuff a hotel would serve for free with your nightly stay. I had the eggs Benedict and it was bad. The ham was good, but the rest of it tasted pretty awful. The eggs tasted OK but they were overcooked. The potato pancakes and cheese sauce had a really gross flavor. Waitress was good, and the decor was expected frumpy old world German. read more

Went there yesterday for lunch. Should have walked out when only two tables were being used. Ordered a Jägerschnitzel Schnitzel lunch. First, the schnitzel was really dry- not fresh. Supposed to come with a German hunters sauce- gravy with mushrooms- It was a flavorless liquid with cherry tomatos in it. That was the best part. The vegetables that came with it were not fresh- frozen- put in fry pan and warmed up. They were soggy luke warm at best. Along with a scoop of cold mash potato's. I always feel bad telling the waitress and then the manager about this but I feel they need to know - so I did. Hopefully it will help. read more

I ordered the lake perch (one of their specialty they say). It was way over cooked, so much it tasted like cardboard. My wife had pasta that was dry and no flavor. The chef this night must have decided to over cook everything. My potato was dry, the vegetables were dry. Overall not a good experience. The service was good. It was not crowded so that could not be an excuse. When I complained, they just gave me a comment card to fill out. read more

6 of us popped in for bkfst. Options were basic fare found in any restaurant in any city. They did have a buffet, but we all ordered from the menu. Food was as expected..only disappointment was that the shredded hashbrowns had a very unusual aftertaste which after a few mouthfulls, was completely off putting. Server was excellent..engaging and funny. She checked on us several times even though she was training a new staff member. Would I go back???? Maybe if I didn't want to wander out of the hotel. read more

I didn't look this place up until after we are here and I'm shocked they don't have great reviews! My husband and I both had the fried chicken, it was great and pretty cheap compared to what eating out costs these days. My daughter ate free at the buffet. Our server was incredibly warm and friendly and was super nice to my daughter. The restaurant itself is so cute and has that indoor exterior facade, just really cute (as is the entire hotel). We were staying here for a weekend so I saw no reason to eat off property honestly. read more

So good! The breakfast buffet was so good the biscuits and gravy were my favorite along with the eggs with peppers/onions! Plenty of seating! read more

Inside the Bavarian Inn. We usually enjoy hotel diners/cafes but this one disappoints. Service was poor and we waited for ever. What they did bring was in one way or another, messed up. Menu was very basic and like everything else here, over priced. Take a pass. read more

Service is slow. Schnitzel is hard and potatoes overcooked. Mozzarella came out cold and then they heated up in microwave without taking the cherry tomatoes off plate. Food is inedible and manager not concerned about service recovery at all. Do yourself a favor and dine elsewhere! read more

It was just okay... Food was fine, nothing out of this world.. the prices are a tad high for the quality... my baked and Mac and cheese was ok, a little skimpy in terms of portion size considering the price.. it was fine, but I've definitely had better max and cheese dishes.. they won't be putting Zingerman's to shame, let's say it that way.. my husband's sandwich and fries were fine, nothing amazing, but fine.. Service was mixed.. despite being quite slow when we sat down, the servers didn't come to check on the table much and it took quite awhile to get a drink refill.. our sever was pleasant but kinda absent.. Atmosphere is strictly Bavarian style decor, etc.. it's in the Bavarian Inn Lodge so it's what you would assume it would be.. but the booths are not comfortable at all... the owners should reinvest in upgrades.. read more

So incredibly boring and bland food. Even the decor and ambiance is bland and boring. My partner and I had lunch here today and I can see why every other restaurant in town had 2-4 hour wait times while we walked right in here. We were hopeful despite sub par reviews and were open minded. There were a couple positives. The pretzel bites with beer cheese and mustard were pretty good and the bartender/servers were great. That's kind of where it ends. I ordered the combo plate as I really wanted to try out the "World Famous" Frankenmuth chicken and jaeger schnitzel with "house made" sauerkraut. First off, there's no way I could be convinced that the sauerkraut didn't come out of a generic jar. That is not authentic German sauerkraut. This was what you get at a gas station to put on your hot dog. The chicken was boring and dry. There was almost zero spices or flavoring at all. I actually added salt from a shaker which I usually never do. The Schnitzel is served with a tiny little cup of sauce and also is flavorless. I'm sorry but we really didn't enjoy our lunch and it was incredibly expensive for what it was. I would not recommend Oma's. read more

Came with my family and everyone enjoyed their meals. The service was great and we were able to get a table right away. My son ordered the chicken fingers and said they were delicious. My daughter ordered the baked spaghetti and she loved it. My husband tried the sausage plate and said it was just good. I tried the schnitzel and it was just ok. The relaxed German feel of the restaurant was perfect for the occasion. read more

Food was good. Pancakes were a bit rubbery but tasted good. Bacon was crispy. Eggs tasted fresh. Sausage was just ok but u think it was German breakfast sausage? Our waitress was very short and not friendly. I had to ask for more water and when we initially sat down we were missing utensils which she brought to our table and piled them into a heap for us to disburse. read more

We had ordered 3 pizzas it was $28 each for a 16" pepperoni. I was expecting a decent pizza but was doughy and pizza sauce was not very flavorful. The bottom of the pizza was wet and not crispy I am very disappointed in the texture and taste. Just a word to the wise don't order pizza and waste your money! read more

Not sure why so many reviews are negative! My boyfriend & I recently visited here and really enjoyed it! Got the pretzel bite appetizer which was kinda small but good! I really enjoyed my meal which was the oriental salad with chicken. super cozy inside- I would visit again on my next trip to Frankenmuth! read more

In Frankenmuth for German food. Came to Oma's just for that, only for them to be out of anything German related, won't do any of the specials because the oven isn't on. Stuck paying high price for food I could have had for free at the hotel. Waste. read more

Don't get the $23 pretzel, it was dry and the beer cheese tasted like a flour gravy instead of beer cheese. $23 is a lot for the pretzel, it is 12" but it was very dry. The staff was not very acccomodating, when they asked how it was. We were pretty much told tough luck. We won't be back and we should have paid attention to the fact that there was hardly anyone here on a Sunday. read more

Food was okay. A little over priced. Good service. We had a large party. May or may not return.

We chose to have the Buffet on Saturday morning. It was really nice to arrive at 10 AM and be able to still partake in the breakfast buffet. For $16.99, it was all you can eat and they had monkey bread and coffee cake as well as a variety of fruit, Biscuits and gravy, bacon, sausage, two different types of eggs, blueberry and plain pancakes, as well as oatmeal. I think for the value it was well worth it! My cousin had a potato pancake breakfast and although she said it was really good, it was maybe only three dollars less than the buffet so I opted for the Buffet myself. Worth it! read more

Oma's Restaurant - Potato pancakes breakfast - German Near Me - Frankenmuth, Michigan

This is my least favorite style of food. It was not appetizing and was mouth puckeringly salty. My tongue felt like a prune by the time I was done eating. Surprisingly the liver and onions tasted better than it looked, but the salads were a disappointment (even a bagged salad prepared by my 6 year old looked more appetizing). The matzah wrap was not filling, the adult portion of Mac and cheese was kid sized, and the kids hamburgers do not come with lettuce tomatoes or onions (the cheese is extra) ‍. It was all so disappointing and we were so hungry. Plan to bring a crockpot for the room or go to Wang's Bistro. The breakfast buffet and dishes are made with more care, but the best thing about breakfast is the fresh fruit also they open at 7am. I gave 2 stars because the service was good. read more

I was here for a late breakfast buffet 10:00 a.m. on a Tuesday and it was fantastic! Hot. Fresh. Huge quantities. Large variety. Even the melon was tasty (not hard like you often get at this time of the year). The server was friendly and attentive even though the place was full. I know it's expensive. This is Frankenmuth. Holiday season. I'm hungry. The "free" (out of a box) breakfast at the hotel closed down at 9:30. So if you want a pleasant, warm friendly environment to eat some really good good...come here. read more

ordered takeout and grabbed it and brought it to our room. I had ordered the broiled chicken and my boyfriend had ordered the 12 oz sirloin steak. we ordered the snow crab legs also. the snow crab was very fishy and they have us nothing to try and crack it with. the chicken was dry and unseasoned and so tiny. the baked potato was extremely over cooked and dry. and the steak was so raw that we could pull our single fibers of meat from the cut of steak. when we complained they had a huge attitude like we were the ones who made the food. we also didn't get some of the add ons to our food that we were supposed to get. I hope we don't get food poisoning from this awful food. don't go here unless you want to spend almost $100 on small portions and unseasoned gross food. read more

Oma's Restaurant - This was almost $20. The potato is small, but the chicken was the size of the top of a pop can. - German Near Me - Frankenmuth, Michigan

The service was terrible! We ordered the onion appetizer it was supposed to come with ranch by the time the server brought it we were done with them. We get our entrees Cesar salad was missing from one. We barely got 2 teaspoons of gravy for 2 giant schnitzels so we asked for more and never got it! Our food was cold by the time we got it. I had friends here from out of town and this was embarrassing! read more
