★★★★★ 5.0 Michael Cummiskey · Apr 2022

Simply the best and most authentic German food in the region!! And you can enjoy their food with a nice drink while sitting in the biergarten at Queen City Radio. The staff are super friendly and every food item is amazing. But you HAVE to try the schnitzel!!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 John Schmidt · Jan 2026

This is a food truck and it’s tucked away on the corner of 12th St. You actually have to go into the courtyard of another restaurant to find it. The food is OK Jager schnitzel was passable, but not like what I had in Germany And the curry sausage was better than most, but the portion was small like something you get at the Ballpark

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 randy foley · Mar 2026

Pretzel with beer, cheese Was good, but it's hard to mess up For a German restaurant, a Reuben was sad Pretzel bun was soaking soggy. Corned beef was overdone, dry and tough

★★★★★ 5.0 Louis XTR · Apr 2025

As someone from Lübeck myself, I was curious – and The Lübecker did not disappoint! The food was absolutely delicious, with the wings being a standout: crispy, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. Everything was fresh and made with care. The owner and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming – I immediately felt at home. A great experience all around. I’ll definitely be coming back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Andrea Wagner · Oct 2025

Loved the place the food and atmosphere is great I’m from Germany and this made me feel right at home with outside seating like a Biergarten it was wonderful
