Bavarian Kitchen
The Verdict
Bavarian Kitchen brings authentic German cuisine to Troutman and it is a real surprise. The schnitzel is crispy and perfectly seasoned, the spaetzle is homemade, and the beer selection includes genuine German imports. The atmosphere is warm and a little quirky, which adds to the charm. A genuine find on the north shore.
