" I was pleasantly surprised by the portion sizes at Plank's. For the price, I felt I got a great deal! I ordered the chicken and waffles, and while they were tasty, I wished the waffles were crispy. The service was amicable, with attentive staff who checked on us frequently. It's a laid-back atmosphere, perfect for a weekday lunch. I might try the pizza next time since that's what most looked like they were enjoying at nearby tables. " (*Curated Review*)

" Stumbled upon this gem while exploring German Village and couldn't be happier! The ambiance was inviting, and the outdoor beer garden was a nice touch. I tried the pretzel bites as an appetizer and they were a perfect start. For my main course, I decided on the schnitzel - and wow! Tender and flavorful, it came with a side of delightful potato salad. It's a little piece of Germany right in Columbus! I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys authentic meals. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit to Plank's Bier Garten exceeded our expectations! From the moment we stepped in, the staff made us feel at home. We ordered the bratwurst and a huge pizza that we couldn't finish. The pizza crust was crispy and flavorful, while the bratwurst was served with a tangy sauerkraut that we loved. The atmosphere was vibrant, filled with laughter and good music. I definitely felt the authentic German vibes, and the beer selection was impressive too! Can't wait to come back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance here is enjoyable, and I appreciate the casual vibe during our weekend brunch visit. Everything about our meal felt fresh, especially the locally sourced ingredients. I had the huevos rancheros, and while it wasn't a traditional recipe, it was still delicious. I can see why this place has such a loyal following! Their beverages also have a nice artisan twist to them. " (*Curated Review*)

" Stopped by Plank's for a quick lunch, and while the food was satisfactory, it didn't stand out among other bistros in the area. The pizza was good but lacked the distinct flavor I was hoping for from an authentic German kitchen. Ended up being an average experience - not terrible, but not exceptional either. I'd consider coming back if I’m in the area but may explore other options first. " (*Curated Review*)

" Plank's Bier Garten, as the name suggests, aims for a German-style experience, but I found it lacking in authenticity. The food was decent enough but tasted more American than traditional. The atmosphere felt forced, lacking the rustic charm of a real biergarten. The staff tried hard, and I appreciated their friendliness, but I walked away feeling a bit let down overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I always have a fantastic time at Plank's! The atmosphere is electric on game days, and the food is consistently delicious. I love ordering the wing platter—it’s perfect for sharing. The beer selection is impressive, including some unique local options. Always happy to bring my friends here! " (*Curated Review*)
