Unfortunately the only picture I got - the XXL Porterhouse with brew fries, and mashed potatoes with gravy.
Jess C.

We LOVE Bill's!! We have been here several times and most recently came here for my son's birthday request! We travel about 45 mins to get to Bill's but what a fun experience! Bill's is very much out in the middle of nowhere land! ;) It's not at all a "fancy" establishment but does what they do VERY well! Bill's has a sweet family feel, with booths and tables scattered about multiple rooms. We ordered multiple steaks, including the XXL porterhouse, ribeye, and filet! Everyone commented on how tasty their steaks were! My filet was perfection! So tender and cooked just how I asked! The sides are basic but delicious! The only thing we didn't care for were the mashed potatoes with gravy. We also had an order of chicken fingers with the brew-city fries, YUM! And a side of the walleye, fried. Also delicious! My ONLY "complaint" and it's not even a complaint, just something I wish was different... they no longer serve bread/rolls! I asked the waitress about this, as we haven't been to Bills in a few years, she said they ended their bread service after the pandemic, to keep costs low. :( Good bread feels like a staple to a steakhouse, but even without it we will most certainly still be back! The drink menu brings great selection! Our cocktail was great as well as a craft beer! We've always had top notch service here! Very kind! Very attentive! Very helpful if you have questions or concerns! They had people constantly checking for clean up needs! Looking for a great, fresh steak experience? (Plus so many other great options!) Give Bill's a try! Enjoy a lovely car-ride with country scenery and a delicious meal, all in one! :)

I drove by this place several times over the years as the parking lot was always full. I had a friend recommend this place as having the best steaks in Michigan. I sat down and had no wait, despite the parking lot being relatively full. Good mix of people inside including families. I ordered the filet with garlic butter/powder with a salad and potato and beverage. The salad came out relatively quickly. The salad plate was not chilled, and a fork and knife was provided with paper napkin. The steak was a bit slow to come out and the steak was somewhere between medium and medium rare. It was delicious. The potato was normal size without any seasoning on the skin. The butter wasn't, it was country crock with vegetable oil. Sour cream was also provided. All in all it was a very pleasant experience, and I will be back. I do wish they did a few small upgrades. Cloth napkins, homemade Italian salad dressing, and of course actual butter. Those few extra touches would knock my review to a five star. I was slightly bummed the garlic butter/ powder was an upcharge.

Came here to meet some friends for lunch who live in this remote area. I have to admit I was skeptical about going to a steakhouse out here. But I was pleasantly surprised, this place has been serving steak for a long time and still are, for good reason. This is not your typical steakhouse you find in Troy, like Ruth's Chris; Morton's, Capital Grill or Eddie V's. This is more like a steakhouse you'd find in Texas. Oklahoma or one of the Dakotas where you get a big steak with all the fixings and sides. We arrived here on a Sunday for early supper, 4:00 pm. It wasn't busy when we got there, but by the time we left there was a wait. I split a porterhouse, recommended by our friends. What a good choice. They had a special too where you can add walleye for not much more, be sure to check the specials board. Also recommended was the blue cheese dressing, it was every bit good like they said. The service was excellent be Dori R, it looks like it all the servers there are good. We found out that one lady in our party went to school with our server's dad. This is a small town. The decor is a little rustic, a little Moderna do a little traditional, just the right mix. They have a large room available for banquets or parties. Probably can't eat here every week, but it is worth a visit, even if it is out of your way.

Serving deliciousness since 1961,,, Steaks Fish Ribs Pasta Desserts Drinks Family get together Team bonding Just a quick bite on the way home!

Crab stuffed mushrooms

They sold out of the XXL porterhouse so we got the XL version. OMG! It was huge and very tasty. I recommend the garlic butter on it. The gravy on the mashed potatoes is amazing with chunks of meat in it. The crab stuffed mushrooms were really good too. But there is more. Had a bite of carrot cake. Yum! Then we move on to the ambiance and service. Love the decor. Enjoyed some of the signs in the bar. The waitstaff are amazing. Very kind and hospitable. We will be back! Thanks hon!

Filet Mignon, Fish & Shrimp Combo

Went on a Saturday night and were seated for 2 immediately. Service was a little bit slow, since it was peak dinner time, but the food didn't take long at all. Food was hot, delicious, and perfectly cooked. We haven't been in several years after hearing complaints that portion sizes had decreased, but given inflation, we were satisfied with the price and portions. The loaded brew fries were phenomenal. I would make a trip back just for those. They had real smoked bacon crumbles and were covered with them. We will make sure to go back sooner this time!

The XXL porterhouse was 32oz of pure joy, and for $35 a deal. Unfortunately the service was lacking

In the area? This place is worth the detour, skip the chain food restaurants, feed the hunger and…read morequench your thirst!! Fantastic custom Bloody Mary's, Fresh fish and the chef salad was huge!! Mushroom soup was bold! Thick and creamy. Great custom sandwiches and a verity of other dishes. I will definitely be back. Local lake cottage style building and decor lots of friendly staff.

This is such a neat little neighborhood restaurant/bar…read more My mom lives literally walking distance, so every time I come visit, we always pop in for a good home cooked meal. I've been here probably three or four or five times, and I always see the same friendly faces. I had NO idea that this place was even for sale, but apparently new owners bought it a few months ago. Had I known it was for sale, I might have tried to buy it. It's always busy in there, and I even think sometimes there's a short wait. They have outdoor seating bar seating table tops, jukebox, and the place is really clean. I can't remember the dishes I've had prior, but this particular visit they had a special of German pot roast, with red cabbage and dumplings? It was so so good, and I liked the fact that the chef went the extra mile and plated it with a flower and a gingerbread cookie. He even came out of the kitchen to ask me how I liked it. Every time I visit my mom, I will always come back here. I really like this place and you will too! ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.
