My husband and I came in for a beer then decided on getting just a small bite to eat. The only…read morething going for this place was the very cold beer and it was in a can at that. My husband ordered chili and we saw the cook walk behind the bar to the cooler and walk back to the kitchen with it, that should've been a sign right there. I ordered mac & cheese bites. The mac & cheese bites were the size of a large kidney bean and there were 5 of them for $8 dollars!!! The chili was too salty and more like a soup so my husband sent it back. We got our bill and she charged us for the chili and we asked about that and she said she could comp us a drink and was unpleasant about it. We left without finishing our drinks and won't go back.

The walls are covered with beer signs, trophy fish and old antiques. Fitting for the oldest running saloon in town. Our waitress arrived promptly and took our orders. Our drinks came back quickly and we knew what we wanted. I ordered the chicken fried steak with a side of cheesesy hashbrowns (Additional $1.50), coleslaw and a roll. My friend ordered the 4 piece bbq chicken with fries, coleslaw and a roll. The wait wasn't long. 10-15 minutes if that. My chicken fried steak was good. The cheesey hasbrowns were worth the extra charge! And I don't usually like coleslaw but this was great! My friend sure did enjoy his chicken! The service, food, PRICE for what you get and attmosphere were all EXCELLENT!

Walking into this place, you understand that is completely a local's bar. It's the kind of place…read morefor people bring a deck of cards, or talk union business at the bar. I had barely set foot in the door when the two bartenders at the bar greeted me warmly and welcomed me in and told me I could sit anywhere I wanted. I sat at the bar and as recommended by a local, I ordered the pepper jack crab soup, which was delicious. One thing to be aware of: don't expect real crab in the soup. Imitation only. But it's plentiful and delicious on a frigid winter day. The bartender recommended the roasted chicken or the perch, and living near another great lake and always having ready access to perch, I decided on the broasted chicken. I was not disappointed. It came with four pieces, choice, potato, and a choice of another side. It was way too its food, but I ate more than I thought they would because it was that good. I will definitely return to the painted lady!

Will most definitely return here when visiting Manistee again! Covid protocol part of the review...they seemed to follow the protocols all of the staff was wearing masks, most of the tables seemed to be far enough apart, they did not enforce masks for customers and were there before the governor's mandate was overruled by the Supreme Court. So it depends on your comfort level.

We stopped in for lunch yesterday based on the menu that we looked at on Yelp…read more First I have to say it's difficult but simple to find this place. It's at the Manistee National golf course. Pull into the parking lot as though you were gonna golf and follow the sign that says Grille. It is in the building adjacent to the pro shop. We arrived about 2:00 pm and were the only people there. It was a cold Saturday in April. The view of the golf course is awesome and the restaurant is fine dinning. My wife had salmon and I had steak and both were very good. I highly recommend this hidden gem.

Just don't! The restaurant is on the top floor of the hotel overlooking Lake Michigan. It has an…read moreabsolutely beautiful panoramic view of the lake. The restaurant serves dinner only. After Labor Day they have a "limited " menu. It's pricey and the food is barely edible(actually we couldn't finish any of the food we ordered so I'm being charitable here). There are a number of really interesting and very good restaurants a few minutes away along the river. Give the Windward a hard pass. The hotel needs to redo their whole concept; even the bar is limited and not very good. This is a great hotel and you'll have an absolutely wonderful time here but sail clear of the Windward!

While the service was a bit slow and prices are on the higher side, the food quality makes it worth the visit. The wedge salad was fantastic--super fresh and flavorful. I had the mushroom Swiss burger which was massive and delicious, loaded with sautéed onions and mushrooms. Fries were perfectly seasoned. Our daughter is gluten-free and loved the cauliflower crust pizza--crispy, generous portion, and totally satisfying. Great spot for a relaxing meal with a view. Just plan on a little extra time and bring your appetite!
