Mitten Drin

I found it to be quite authentic.nWe ordered the two-person combo, and though the portions initially looked modest, they were surprisingly filling.nThe pork knuckle was a standout—perfectly crispy skin with tender, flavorful meat inside. The beer sauce was beautiful, and the big pretzel was delicious as well.nTo top it off, they serve real German beer, which added to the experience.nHighly recommended for anyone craving genuine German flavors!

We had a great time at Mitten Drin. Highly recommend going there early as you get a good choice of where you can sit. The food was flavourful and were really large portions.nnThey give you a nice salad to start. We had the Platter B, it was enough to feed 4 people. The meat on the bone was a lot. The sausages were scrumptious! I wish there was more of it. The pretzel was perfect and really big. It was great to soak up the sauces. The sauerkraut and rotkraut were great complements to the fattiness of the meat and sauces.nnThe Beef Goulash was also really yum and I’d recommend to have some spätzle to have with the sauce. The dumplings were like a mash potato formed into a dumpling shape in the beer sauce. Not our favourite.nnWould really recommend this place and they had an excellent staff member who helped us out, esp with needing to move to a bigger table bc of the lot that we ordered can’t wait to come back and try the desserts next time. Won’t order too many mains and will leave space for dessert.

The closest thing to a slice of Europe in the back parts of West Auckland.nnSausages and mash With German beer on tap A perfect winter meal. Also comes with sauerkraut which was nice, not too sour, and complimented the meal. My friend got the beef goulash, which was delicious! The meat I tried was very tender, and the flavor was very warming. Perfect for a cold night. I have been craving it since! The meals also came with a coleslaw appetizer, which had mixed reviews between my friends, but I enjoyed it as something a little different that added to the style of food and atmosphere.nnVery nice. Will be going back. nGood prices and good quality.

Late lunch circa 2:20pm for a birthday party on a Saturday. Party of 7 including my 3yo grandson and we largely had the place to ourselves for most of the meal.nThe wait staff were efficient at the outset, but we hadn't quite decided on food and my son then ended up going looking for the waiter. Once we had ordered, the food was out pretty quick being quiet may have helped and was for the most part great 2 had the Berliner currywurst which was a little lacking in flavour sauce wise according to my daughter, but the sausages overall across the dishes were really a hit as they were thinner skinned and full of flavour - good quality! The side salads came out early so were a bit of an entrée for us.nWith drinks 3 tap beers, a wine, bottled beer and apple juice, plus takeaway dessert for 2 the meal came out at $251 or 41 per head which we thought was reasonable.nWould we go back - definitely! The menu is extensive and there are a lot more dishes we would be keen to try!nMy grandson also had a blast playing in the kids play area, which has plenty to do

Eat in last night with a group of 8. Excellent food, great friendly staff. Great restaurant. Little in West Auckland. Great
