The young lady who met us at the door when we walked in who was also the bartender was extremely friendly and helpful. It made us feel very comfortable. We ordered a couple dips and few drinks just to test the menu out. The hummus was delicious, the plate was well presented. Presented. I got the crab rangoon dip which felt like it kind of missed the mark. I had ordered the crab on the side, and I was presented a small container next to a sweet chunky cheese dip, mock crab. A little disappointing for the upcharge for something that wasn't even crab. I would imagine that some people would really like this place. However, the vibe that I got was a women's retreat. The pool is in the center of shipping containers, some cut out to make cabanas?? All containers are painted black without any shade.

I was offered a seat at the bar, which had chairs that I found uncomfortable and a two inch molding that meant plates couldn't be pulled close to eat over. I wanted a sit down dinner with a book. I did not get that. My halloumi salad was bland. The beans were undercooked -- hard, not starchy gone creamy, definitely not braised -- and under seasoned. The whole thing needed salt. The halloumi itself was good, very crispy. The Meyer lemon soda was good. I expected more from a chef with this pedigree. Apparently there were specials -- I heard the bartender mention them to the couple next to me as I was paying my check. That was the first I'd heard of them. 3% CC fee. I won't be back.

Very cool and modern spot in downtown Douglas outside of Saugatuck. Had a larger group so tried to…read moremake a reservation. Was told if we could make it there asap, then they could seat us. There really wasn't anyone in there so not sure about the tough seating opportunities. Food was lackluster and not any good. Mostly Italian fare but just bad options and tasteless food. Opted for the a meatball appetizer which came with charred ciabatta and a tasteless marinara, along with undercooked meatballs. Didn't finish it on account of taste and texture; it just wasn't good and that was the general consensus amongst my entire group. One person opted for the Marguerita pizza and the amount of uncooked flour left on the platter and bottom of the pie was absurd. Flat out that's all he could taste was dust. They also were out of at least two or three tap beers on their list with no replacement and limited options. At least the server was nice and helpful but apparently if you have a larger group than 5 or 6 they cannot split bills. Ours did but we had to "keep it on the lowdown lest her manager hear" that that was allowed by this particular server. There aren't too many choice options in such a small town so I guess take the good with the bad or just go hit the hot dog food truck on the roadside instead.

Now all I had left was ice & possibly a tablespoon of pop and she brought me an empty cup. Ummmmm I didn't ask for a cup so I could take my leftover ice home.

They were fried so you are staying clear of fried foods--I would skip this dish (it wasn't listed as fried). The cocktails and food was amazing.

We got the crab and lobster dip plus the duck liver mousse for appetizers. Both were bland and the flavor non-comprehensive. The dip had little flavor and the texture was weird and chewy, did not taste like the crab and lobster was cooked that day (from experience). The duck liver mousse was decent, but fell flat on a full flavor alone, it was kindly complemented with the pickled cucumber and carrots but overall it wasnt the most impressive. We had the lake trout and the hanger steak. The lake trout was gamey, oddly flavorless but also had a strong musky flavor, severely under seasoned during cooking. The spinach and embellishments saved the dish from being totally inedible. Presentation was sad and sloppy. The steak with tallow fries was a joke. The meat was chewy/tough, the sauce tasted like nothing, and the fries tasted like they came straight out of the freezer section of Walmart (freezer taste included). Wedges or fingerlings would have been a far better pairing in our opinion. Both of our plates were left barely half finished and it turned into a date of being food critics lol. A positive was they did make a decent old fashioned (was more of a double), and their French 75 was fabulous. Overall, it was a joke. We love interesting new places with unique menu options. We chose this place for that reason. Unfortunately we felt it was a case of "quantity over quality". These dishes had so much potential, but it was by far our worst food experience of our trip.

The space is big and well-established. Service was efficient, but not overly friendly. I like that they had an activity sheet to keep the kids occupied. Food and drinks came out pretty quickly! My club with curly fries was delicious, but unfortunately a lot of pickles on the side that wasn't listed on the menu or mentioned (hate it when that happens as a pickle hater!). Nachos were delicious. Other opinions at the table: chicken tender breading was more fish-like and the chicken slid out of it - not very tasty. Chick and twist pasta was bland, no notable spice/flavor to the chicken and sauce congealed. The orange cream drink was a hit - tasted like an orange julius! Overall, okay experience, but food average.
