    The menu isn't all that appealing. The prices are too expensive for the quality & quantity. The wait staff are very friendly though!

I would highly recommend to call ahead to make a reservation. We had a little bit of a wait without one. The menu is vast and the portions are nice sizes. They have Prime Time, Lobster Tails, Filet Mignon, Grouper, King Crab, Mahi Mahi..... Everyone in our dining party ordered different things so we were able to sample several items from the menu. I ordered a steak with macaroni and cheese plus a side salad. The fresh bread was good. The winner for me was the take out carrot cake with the drizzle for later! Five stars! There was a full house on this day so the table and chairs are a little close in proximity. We were holding a hold conversation with the nice couple at the table next to us. They shared that they eat here often and split a meal amongst the two of them.

I ordered mine med they both came out well done. I kept mine and my daughter sent hers back. We ordered sides of zip sauce which is amazing on a steak. Nope not tonight someone was so heavy handed with the salt in this too. Our sides and my granddaughters fries were barely warm. The second filet comes out just like the first. Your known for steaks med rare and well done are to different ends of the spectrum. What a disappointment

Walking in feels like the universe hit pause somewhere in the best way. Same feel, same energy, same kind of place you can count on without thinking twice. It's like being teleported back to exactly where you're supposed to be. And the food? Exactly what it should be. No pretending to be healthy, no overthinking it. Just straight, unapologetic comfort. I go there for one thing every time: the hot beef sandwich. Massive. Smothered in gravy... and I mean gravy everywhere. The kind where you don't just eat it, you commit to it. Fries? Those are getting dipped in gravy too, no question. It's excessive in the best possible way. The portions are out of control. You're not finishing it. You're not even pretending to. You're leaving with enough leftovers for the next couple of days and you're not mad about it. It's the kind of meal that feels a little sinful, but worth every second. You'll deal with forgiveness later. Hometown, no-frills, real-deal comfort food that hasn't lost its identity over time. And honestly, that's rare.

    I remember when there was Bagger Dave's down here in the Metro Detroit area, but they've all since…read moreclosed. I liked them when they were in the area, but for the most part, have closed many years ago. Never had a bad meal with them, just didn't frequent them often enough, I guess. LOL. Anyway, I went to Dow Gardens in Midland on July 4th, so getting something to eat on the way home was very limited. Most places were closed and I really didn't want fast food. I stopped at Birch Run since on the way up I noticed that it was partially open, and after struggling to find a sit down place to eat at, I got lucky here. Walking in, the place wasn't busy and I was seated right away. I reviewed the menu and couldn't remember what I'd gotten before, but even if I did, I'm sure they've changed the menu so I went with Dave's cheeseburger with sweet potato fries and an Arnold Palmer. The food here was really good albite slightly expensive. I was willing to spend a few more dollars for a good meal, so I'm okay with that. What I like about dining here is they truly make their own stuff. If I remember correctly, they also make their own pop, and dipping sauces, leaving Coke and Pepsi in the dust. My server was great, and my food was good, so I'd gladly come back here again when in the area. I know Birch Run isn't what it used to be, but I can almost always count on them having something to eat along with some places to shop at when I'm in the area. Plus, they're close to Frankenmuth, which is a bonus. Overall, better then some lunches I've had in the area, and open on a holiday! YAY!

    My son wanted to try this place since it was one of the few restaurants in Birch Run we hadn't been…read moreto. After our visit, I understand why it was nearly empty. We started with the Santa Fe nachos and fried pickle chips. The nachos were already soggy when they arrived, and the pickles were cut far too thick and not crispy at all. The portion of sour cream was also too small for the size of the nachos. We didn't finish either appetizer. For my entrée, I ordered the Train Wreck Burger with onion rings. The name ended up being fitting, but not in a good way. The burger was bland, and the fried egg that was supposed to be part of it was barely noticeable. I only ate about half. My son's hot honey chicken sandwich was just average and overpriced, and the fries that came with it were clearly overcooked and not fresh. They were taken off the bill, which was appreciated, but didn't change the overall experience. The restaurant itself was clean, and there are plenty of seating options including booths, high tops, and a bar. The service was polite, but overall the experience felt very underwhelming. For the prices they charge, the food quality simply isn't there. We left disappointed and won't be returning.

Not bad but not my favourite. I also had the spicy tenders and the seasonings on those made them much better. The mozzarella sticks were good also. Now the plus the tenders were huge I mean like half a chicken breast I'm a big guy and I hate not feeling full on a 5- piece tenders but I was stuffed The staff was super friendly the building in Waterford was new had a nice outdoor dining area and clean restroom. Would I eat there again oh hell yes I still have to try the burgers reg chicken and awesome looking shakes. Shout out to the manager in Waterford this is a good place to eat THANK YOU!!!

When I received my food I was a bit moody already so the box made me start thinking about how fast this place is losing money. This isn't a KFC biscuit box, nor even a pizza box, in fact I don't even see computer gear coming in cardboard containers this thick and heavy. Food was fresh and hot when I opened the box. I can see immediately why the food took so long those burgers are not the processed stuff we are used to from FAST food burger joints. When I go to the grocery store to pick out some stuff for the grill I am grabbing these beasts. Cooked with love, these things were exactly what you want to serve at the family cookout. Bacon, pepper cheese, American cheese, and tomatoes were tasty and quality supporting cast. The bacon was thick slabs not like those crunchy shoe strings offered else where. Tomato was a good tasty crunch when I bit into it reminding me of summer. The cheeses kicked in to add a touch of flavor I enjoyed. Fries were a bit crunchy but very hot. I am a soda freak so when my cold beverage came out that window I made sure I had the deliciousness I was craving. One more quick thought. The serviettes, those are not the tissue paper napkins we expect, are extremely welcome after biting into the juicy delicious burger. I was gonna hold on to the extras, but they don't give out the Hunger Games novel size pile that usually comes with a meal.

Wake up tomorrow and start over but tonight it is just no way around it. I have never been as disappointed with an ice cream or with Dairy Queen as I am right now. So I'm on my way home. I decided I want a chocolate dipped strawberry blizzard add Oreo (I get one or two a week either from the Holly or the Weidman DQ's, both of of those locations are amazing. Never had one issue with either of them.) I go through the drive-through pay for it and hand it to me. I pull off. I'm about half a mile down the road take a bite, Realize there's no Oreo in it I turn around go back through the drive-through explain there's no Oreo, she was nice about it. I handed it to her she took it added what seemed to be their entire supply of Oreo in that whole store to my cup. Gave it back to me. I say thank you, pull off, take a bite, stir it (had Oreo cookie crumbs all over my lap) take another bite only to realize there's no strawberry in it. So I have to go to the next off exit so I can turn around to go back. I pull up yet again and I reorder it again!! I say I would like a medium blizzard with chocolate dipped strawberry and I would like to add Oreo pieces just the normal way you make it,not an overabundant of anything,just the normal way you would make it on a normal day. She says OK I pull up. I try to give her my previous ordered large as I'm explaining to her there was no strawberry in it. She did not take my old blizzard she just looked at me and she said $6.02 . I said $6.02 for what you didn't make my first blizzard the right way I'm trying to give it back to you. She just stared at me and repeated $6.02. I said "I have to pay for another blizzard that I already paid for that you guys didn't make right not once but twice" , she said yes!! So I payed her a second time for a blizzard that still isn't made correctly the second one has no chocolate pieces!!!! Unbelievable like I'm literally blew back of the incompetence of the people they have in their store..,.. like why just why???
