794 Kitchen and Bar - Outside - Bars Near Me - Muskegon, Michigan

We came in on Saturday afternoon 1/4/25 around 3:30pm for a late lunch. We sat at the bar and Amber took great care of us - again For cocktails I had an espresso martini - it was sweeter and creamier than I anticipated, but it was good! He had the smoked chocolate covered cherry old fashioned (that's a long name) and it was really good. It was server with the smoke top still on and like a couple of amateurs we had no idea what to do it the top haha. Apparently, just set it on the bar and drink your drink! For food I had the mini beef ocho burrito - no onions. It was the perfect size. It said mini but it was still a plate-full! He had 3 beef tacos on house shells and a steak taco on a house shell. We were both thrilled with our entrees and we are already talking about what we are going to order the next time we come in. read more

794 is my husband's favorite restaurant. Mainly because the tacos. He gets tacos San Antonio style (onion and cilantro) on the house fried shell. He also gets a side of rice and hot sauce. The hot sauce is from the El Camino restaurant that was once in Muskegon. He is obsessed with this order. I switch between that and the chicken quesadilla. The chicken is grilled, not shredded. It is SO good. I do not like shredded chicken quesadillas and this quesadilla is one of my favorites in the area. I love the amount of cheese as well. My son had chicken tenders and onion rings. The onion rings are huge! He really enjoyed his meal. I love the drink selection here, but we didn't order any this trip. We always have wonderful service here. Very friendly and helpful staff. The bartenders are also great. I typically ask Carolann to surprise me with a drink and it always delivers. There are lots of windows so the restaurant is bright and cheery. There are sunshades at every window for when the sun is shining in and that is helpful. If you have to use the restroom, you have to leave the restaurant and walk down the hall a little ways. It is not far, but something to take note of. read more

The food here was amazing and fresh in-house made! Loved the beans and rice and smash burger. Our server was fun and attentive, Carrie. Will definitely return. read more

What a lovely find for someone visiting. Stick with Mexican for dinner and preferred a steak, chicken, and shrimp taco. Side of beans and guacamole. I honestly can't tell you what part was my favorite. The rib rye steak tacos were amazing, and I will definitely order again - but I'd say the same about the chicken and shrimp too! They were so good, I don't know if I'll ever get to try the southern part of the menu read more

Arrived at restaurant around 4:45. Staff struggled with the idea of what to do with our group of six adults and one toddler even though restaurant was mostly empty. Drinks came out fairly quick. At 5:45, waitress apologizes that our food hasn't come out and that it would be out shortly. She apologized many times and I felt bad for her because you can tell she felt frustrated. After multiple apologize and a small basket of chips and salsa (sized for two people even though we were a group of six adults), we finally told her that we will take the food to go because and hour and quarter is a long time for a toddler to sit in a high chair. After another delay, we had five of the six meals and I had to wait even more. Stuff happens, but the restaurant only grew to half filled doing this delay. Not once did a manager come to apologize. I still don't blame the waitress, but am am very disappointed that this last night of vacation did not go as planned. My only regret was not leaving early and going to McDonalds. The portion size of all our sandwich's was big, but sandwich's and fries were slightly soggy and far from crisp. To make matters worse, our corner of the restaurant became very warm and uncomfortable. There appeared to be a problem with the air conditioning. read more

Went back to 794 looking for some good southern style food. I was thinking about chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits, collard greens, and cornbread! What a disappointment to find a much more generic menu with the same old fried appetizers, salads, sandwiches, and Mexican food that so many other eating establishments offer. I love Mexican food, but I go to a Mexican restaurant if that's what I want. I didn't go to 794 for the ambience, and now I'm not so sure I'll go back for the food. Our server knew nothing about wines offered, but was otherwise pleasant. It's time to check out other some of the other innovative restaurants in the Muskegon area. read more

We went here for lunch around 12:30 on a Tuesday afternoon and they were somewhat busy but we got a table right away. We got a side salad and the Cuban sandwich with onion rings. The Cuban was amazing! Best Cuban I have ever had! The lemon dill vinaigrette for the salad was good too. The onion rings had lots of onion in them and the batter was good and crispy. We planned on sharing everything and good thing we did because the portions were pretty big. Our service was great as well! She was quick and friendly. We will be back when we are in town again. read more

I'd never heard of this place but a group of friends and I headed there for dinner recently. The restaurant is open and bright, and not very busy on a Thursday evening around 6 pm. We were seated right away and decided on drinks. The seasonal drink menu was large and everyone seemed happy with their choices - the lavender & pea flower lemondrop martini was so beautiful! I stuck with water but they have a full bar and plenty of options for beer as well. The menu is huge and everything sounded so delicious. They do "creatively southern" food so I knew I wanted to get something with a southern vibe, so I finally chose the catfish po boy and added a side of collard greens. In the meantime we ordered the cheese curds and cornbread muffins to share amongst the group. The cornbread muffins come in an order of four, but we had six people so we asked our server if we could get six, and she said of course! This was awesome and let me tell you, the muffins were delicious. They were super tender and moist and not overly sweet. I'm not normally a huge cornbread fan but I loved these. The spreads that came with were both delicious, a berry-jalapeno jam and honey chili butter. On to the cheese curds, which were kind of mind-blowing to be honest. They were cubes of cheddar cheese, I don't think they were actual cheese curds (which is a specific type of cheese product), but I didn't care because they were SO. GOOD. I've had cheese curds at a lot of local places but these were different - they had a very light wrapping/breading of something we couldn't identify, but they were lightly crispy on the outside and perfectly gooey inside. And they came with two sauces - a marinara and an herbed ranch. As a sauce girl, I approve. Okay, I'm still thinking about these cheese curds. Our meals were huge and I was amazed by the massive filet of catfish on my sandwich! I could only eat half, plus I was saving room for dessert. The sandwich was tasty, but I'd definitely get the shrimp and andouille mac and cheese next time. The greens were okay, not the best I've had but cooked well. For dessert I got the turtle brownie, which was again - delicious. The crisp candied nuts were a great accompaniment and I loved the vanilla gelato. I also had a bite of the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake and it was perfect! Our server was great with splitting our checks and handling our indecisive large group. Plenty of street parking in the area and the building houses some other cute businesses, making it a fun destination. I will definitely be back to try more from the menu! read more

Wow!!! It's been a while since I've been to a restaurant and ~everything~ wowed me, but this place was it! I ordered two drinks off the summer cocktail menu- the Waterlily (not pictured) and the Watermelon Basil Margarita. Both were adorable, and both tasted great! The margarita tasted slightly stronger than the Waterlily, but that might just be because tequila had a more prominent taste. For appetizers, we ordered the cheese curds snd the cornbread. The waitress ~so graciously~ brought us 6 cornbread muffins (for our party of 6) instead of 4. This saved us from having to wrestle for the cornbread, so that was appreciated The cornbread came with some delicious spreads, including some kind of whipped butter, and a fruity jalapeño jam (this had the jalapeño flavor, but wasn't spicy- even your mom would probably like it.) The real kicker though was the CHEESE CURDS They came out in perfect little cubes with a very thin layer of some kind of breading, which we discussed ~at length~ because we need to know their secrets. They were perfect gooey bites of cheese with the perfect crunch. Hands down, the best cheese curds I've ever had. Other restaurants better start acting like plankton and try to come in and steal that secret formula, because w-o-w. The entrees were also all spot on! The shrimp and andouille mac had SO MUCH shrimp and andouille. I've never got a pasta and been like "Wow, they skimped on the veggies, but the meat portions are fantastic" but here they did! (There was enough veggies- I wouldn't actually say they skimped!) Other people got the short ribs, grilled cheese, french dip, and catfish po boy (not pictured) and everything was a HIT. The only thing I heard anyone say was average was a side of the collard greens. Their dessert menu was extensive, and made choosing hard, but our table ordered the sorbet, a cheesecake, and a turtle sundae, and everything came out amazing. For having such too notch food, this place felt pretty laid back! Shoutout to our server for being so friendly and accommodating, even for a large (a very indecisive) group. This place is a little bit of a hike from where I live, but it's good enough that I'd definitely come back. read more

The food was delicious! The service was excellent. The ONLY down side to this restaurant is that the acoustics are terrible, making it very hard to hear each other talking. But the food quality was worth it. read more

Best burger ever! Great space, staff and food. Weird hours. The menu has a great selection and everything I've eaten is great. The drinks are well made and the bartenders are friendly and helpful. Great place for a date, a night out with friends or to grab a bite at the bar and watch the game. read more

Though they were understaffed, our service and the food were redeeming. Super sweet, bubbly, and amiable server. Sports on TVs. Converted warehouse. Lots of windows, high ceilings. Modern Southern cuisine. Garden Salad, Crab cakes, and Crispy Brussels Sprouts were items we tried. All delicious. Textures, seasonings, and plate displays were on point. Overall, very enjoyable .This may be an anchor store for an up and coming area. read more

The food was so good! We had the full order of guacamole as an appetizer. It was so fresh and tasty. Our entrées were also tasty and huge portions. We ordered the chicken strips, the French dip and the burger. Allex was a great server and gave some great recommendations. Fun spot in Muskegon. read more

This place was exactly the vibe I wanted for brunch, but it would have also been wonderful for a dinner spot as well. It's the first restaurant to the left once you go through the main doors to the Northwest 794 building on Pine st. There's ample street parking in front of and next to the building, and there is a pretty small private parking lot in the back (there's a back entrance as well if you park back there) and there's a lot farther back that's split between them and an apartment complex. We got to seat ourselves and the amount of sunlight coming through the windows was just beautiful! There were both low top and high top tables as well as plenty of bar seating too. It was not very busy when we went so I'm not sure how it is when it's busier, but our food came out probably 45 minutes after we ordered it. The crab cakes that we got as an appetizer came in around 10 minutes. Overall, our server was very quick with getting us anything we needed, and the food was absolutely excellent. Highly recommend! read more

It was my 2nd trip to the Muskegon Boat Show. In 2024 I found this restaurant, 794 Kitchen & Bar. My wife and I had a fantastic lunch then all the way home we raved about how it was so great. Last Friday I took a friend and his wife to the show and of course we went to 794 Kitchen. The staff there is great and our Waitress, probably was a partner because she knew everybody, knew the menu inside out and was extremely friendly. We order an app and the main courses and as predicted the food was an absolute 11 out of 10. We all tried something different and each meal (which I tried them all) was unbelievably good. And if you like Cajun food it is a "cannot miss". After the meal the Chef came out to greet us, what a wonderful person, so kind and just a wonderful person. This is NOT a bar food restaurant in fact it's not even close, this is a casual fine dining establishment with the word "Bar" in its name. An Absolute not miss in Muskegon Michigan. read more

A group of friends and I were venturing out to Muskegon for their newer food scene, and while I thought I never heard of it before, as I pulled up into the area, I knew exactly where it was as I've been to an establishment in the same building. I wasn't sure how to feel about the menu at first, given that it feels very unhealthy and southern inspired (southern food is delicious but if you're looking for healthier options, this probably isn't it). However, my friends and I were all about the foodie experience and beyond excited to try! There is a decent amount of street parking and walking into the restaurant, it's very open and very bright! I loved that vibe because we went on a sunny day. You get the sunshine without the heat, so it was a win win. The menu is enormous that it took us all WAY too long to decide on food. However, we decided to try the cheese curds and cornbread muffins to start. Let me just say that all the food was delicious. I didn't try something that I didn't enjoy, but the cheese curds STOLE THE SHOW. We probably talked about how the chef made it more than anything else during that dinner and the sauces were great! Even for our non-ranch loving individuals, they agreed that the herb ranch was worth saving. The cheese curds though - so light, so cheesy, and did not feel super greasy! Honestly... I'd eat them everyday if I had the chance. I ordered the french dip - because I love a good french dip and I honestly loved it. It was the right mix of crunchy and soft bread, a fantastic cheese pull on that first bite and the au jus was so flavorful! I will probably try something else when I come though, the short ribs and meatloaf sounded really good so maybe those. Our server was so friendly, dealing with 6 very indecisive foodie ladies, and split the check without a worry. While I don't get out to Muskegon often, I'll definitely come back here and try more items soon! read more

I met some friends at 794 for lunch last week. I love the modern atmosphere - lots of windows and high ceilings with exposed piping. I don't think they have outdoor seating, but that would be a great addition! I ordered the pressed Cuban sandwich with fries and was not disappointed! They were very generous with the meat and the sandwich was huge! Our waitress was very nice and friendly, but tended to disappear frequently. All in all, lunch was very enjoyable. I'll be back! read more

Great service! We both had salads and the scratch dressings were amazing! I had Cajun chicken on mine and it was so tasty. We thought it would be way more expensive than it was. A great find and we'll definitely go back to try other dishes. If we had to knock anything, it would be the noise. It is very echo-y and conversations are amplified. The place wasn't even half occupied and it was very noisy. read more

First time here and both meals were amazing! Comfort food squared. Wifey had a the meatloaf and I had the pork shank. Service was great. loved the vibe and atmosphere. Fall off the bone not overspiced with a great Bbq sauce. Niced sized portions. would definately go back. read more

Some of the worst service I've had in a long time. Poor attitudes and it was clear they didn't want to be there. The food was fine although my wrap came without the dressing on it so it was incredibly dry. I ate about a third and took the rest home so I could add dressing to make it edible. Ambiance was non-existent, extremely loud and full of a bunch of dissatisfied customers. We won't be rushing back. read more

What a fun place to have some tasty pork belly dishes and drinks! Their portions are pretty big, all can be shared . They get real busy at lunch time, luckily we came in right after the lunch rush. Service was great and everything we ordered was very delicious! Parking is limited, but plenty street parking all around . Definitely recommend! read more

Went here for smash burgers with some friends. Burgers were excellent and portion sizes were great. I was surprised at how good the burgers were. Impressed with their menu.

While traveling and site seeing in the area with the family we stopped in for some food and drink. Not impressed at all. We had two small children with us. Usually with little people you get something to color with. What we got was a tray of broken crayons. See the pic. The food and drinks were good. The napkin wedges to level the tables shows the lack of detail for an inviting place to be. Sorry gang. I can't recommend your establishment. read more

We ordered drinks and appetizers right when we were seated and it took 50 minutes for the drinks and an hour and a half for the chips and salsa. One drink took even longer because it had been sitting on the bar so long they thought it was a mistake and dumped it out. We were sitting at our table a total of 2.5 hours before our entrees showed up. The food was ok, I would not recommend this place. read more

I have eaten here several and tried several different menu items. I have never been disappointed. Always more than I expected as far as taste and size. Knowledgeable staff.

Too loud. Too expensive. Food was okay but took too long meatloaf and mashed potatoes

Not a bad place, but nothing spectacular about it either. The atmosphere is upbeat and inviting but the few times I have visited the service was slow and the food has never been worth raving about. I would not go out of my way to eat here. There is free street parking and restrooms outside the restaurant and down the hallway. The staff are friendly. The restaurant seems very clean which is good! Overall a good experience, but nothing that screams to come back. Your average restaurant. read more
