Honestly, the best home cooked style Mexican food in Traverse City, and it's not even close. Kind of a down and dirty spot, but pleasant enough visually. Sometimes the place is filled with smoke and fryer grease fumes. I won't go in when it's like that. And hopefully they get it worked out. No alcohol served (that I'm aware of) Sadly, staff attitudes, dismissiveness, disrespectful attitudes toward customers, often closed during open hours, with no sign. If you come in within 15 minutes of closing, they will announce to you that "We are closing." We've seen it happen to a number of guests, who are wondering what they did wrong, to get scolded. The staff apparently feels, if the restaurant closes at 7 PM, they should be walking out the door at 7:01 PM. That would be nice, but that's not how it works. What this tells us is, there is a skilled Mexican chef, real home cooking, behind this place. But there is no management skill or discipline. That also makes me worry about cleanliness and sanitation, because if you have no principles and no guidance or leadership, you can't expect a staff of, essentially children, to perform as adult professionals. Probably the hardest review I've ever had to write, and I hope they fix the BS with the staff. Food is absolutely delicious.

It was a perfect lunch spot with outdoor seating in the shade - highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area!

We ordered the English muffin ham, egg and cheese sandwich with 2 eggs over easy. It was messy but delicious!! We also ordered the Boursin cheese omelette that is served on a tortilla with fresh tomatoes. Both of these were AMAZING and we found Cracked the next day and got the exact same order plus pancakes before our drive home. Bottom line this place is legit. The ham is about 1/2" thick and full of flavors and the Boursin cheese really adds a great flavor to the omelette! Thanks for the great breakfasts!

You can create your own picnic per say. The pancakes were delicious! They were fluffy and tasteful. For something lighter, I also got the roasted asparagus and tomato egg wrap which was also delicious. If you want to avoid lines at the restaurant or want something quick - this is definitely a place to try in Traverse City!

Ok, to find this little gem in Cedar was such a pleasant surprise!…read more We were not hungry in the least bit but when we discovered the Polish Countryside Kitchen we had to get a "Scooby snack" of pierogi and cucumber dill salad. The gentleman running the truck was super friendly and took the time to share with us how he operates his farm and his motivation to do so. The kitchen prides itself in serving authentic Polish cuisine with only the best of ingredients. Since it's a food trailer, you get to enjoy your food outdoors, and in this day the weather was perfect, it was fun to watch the motorcycles ride by as we ate our snack. Now onto the food! We tried the cheddar potato and it was delicious! the pierogi were cooked to perfection with just the right amount of crispiness from searing and the filling was very light but full of flavor. And the cucumbers dill salad reminded me of my Babusia made when I would visit her as a boy. .

Thinking about swinging by again for take out .....give them a try and before they close up for the year.

The truffle flavor wasn't strong, so was a little disappointed. I was also disappointed to find that their fries come from a box (read: store bought), however the fries did turn out to be pretty good. I did consider other dishes. They had an interesting black cod dish, but I wasn't super hungry. I would say the staff treated this more as a transaction than me supporting their biz. A little robotic in nature, not extremely nice. Don't forget that your patrons are coming to support you rather than a more established restaurant.

Well, unfortunately, this was not what I expected at all. The best thing about the burger is it was…read moreonly 6.50. The fries, for an additional dollar and a half, were hot and fresh (yum!) And had great texture, but completely flavorless. I didn't ask for seasoning - hopefully they provide it if you don't want plain old starch. The burger was well done, not medium well as the young lady said, but it was falling apart and not in a good way. It was also pretty flavorless - the best part about it was that it was made fresh. There was way too much bread on the burger, and it was pretty dry (almost old-tasting - yikes!). It's a beautiful day, so I'll be nice - the service was pretty good. Young lady was friendly, and did provide more info when asked. Unfortunately, I won't be having a burger here again. They have some other options on the menu that look good - maybe next time I'll try the dirty fries - I'll hopefully have better luck.

It is overpriced. $25 for 2 meat plate you get little piece of chicken and chop meat. Sides are good but the meat are tiny. 2. It is gross. you know something is wrong when your bbq is drown in sauce. Look at the picture. I never seen a bbq restaurant drown their meat in sauce. It is like they just grilled it or microwave the meat and just dump sauce on them and call it bbq. Also it was cold. Might as well eat at Applebee's if they are serving this. I was going to give 0 star but server was patient and nice. Food was just terrible. Everybody that give good reviews have nachos or macaroni. That's easy to make, but the items that involve technical skills and times, they have no idea how to make barbeque period

Stopped at Sparks while visiting Traverse City because my husband and I were craving BBQ --…read moreparticularly BBQ nachos. Unfortunately, Sparks was busier than expected so it took way long to get our food - even though we just ordered the nachos and a side of mac. Our waiter apologized many times due to being short staffed for the holiday weekend, but we were getting soo hangry we devoured our food in 10 minutes by the time we got it. The nachos were pretty good - I expected there to be a lot more meat and toppings for the price - and I wish they had put all of the BBQ sauce on it! We asked for all of their BBQ sauce on the side so we could try all of it. The mac & cheese was also pretty good! I probably would opt for a sandwich if I came back though since I do think the nachos were a bit lackluster.
