About Our Name
Our name, The Lucky Frog, is inspired by the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale, "The Lion and the Frog." The story tells the tale of a brave frog who helps a princess reclaim her prince brother from a lion. The frog's bravery is rewarded, and the story ends with a grand wedding feast featuring traditional German dishes. We're proud to carry on this legacy by serving up authentic German cuisine that's sure to delight your taste buds.
