The waitress we had I believe was the owner was FABULOUS she helped us learn what their specialties are and you can tell the soup was made fresh with no cut corners. Clearly a local favorite for good reason!! We are definitely going to bring our small children with us next time to try the good food! read more

Ok the restaurant was neat and clean and the service was attentive and friendly!! Which is great but I came for the food. I chose the cheese burger with the impression giving on the menu it was fresh hamburger and it was clearly a frozen patty and I was not a fan of it at all! But I will say the fries were very good !!! Not happy paying $19.00 plus tip for a frozen patty I was very disappointed!! read more

So expensive for what you get! $9 for four onion rings!!! Yeah no Garlic toast so soggy and full of butter! Definitely won't be going back! Burger was nothing special! read more

We go there fairly often. The food is always delicious and consistently so. We've never had dessert because we are always too full. read more

Good food and fast, friendly service! A go-to for breakfast. Spacious and clean as well. Good for all ages.

Long drive to Michigan, drove out of my way for Yelp endorsed breakfast. Disappointing is the word. "Corned beef with hash breakfast special." 2 eggs, One small piece of toast served with Corn beef, straight out of a can.. didn't even separate the little slices. Just a small pile on top of hashbrowns. Disappointing breakfast. Very plain interior. Service was great. read more

Didn't know what to expect since we never been here before. Very good food, the steak tips were great and the sweet potato fries were great. Hubs said his blue burger wax good as well. Audrey was a very nice waitress and I was glad I took her advice and got the steak tips read more

This restaurant decided to offer one meal on Thanksgiving, and put zero effort into it. They should have actually advertised (or stated on menu) "Turkey Roll". Not only did it look disgusting but it tasted (yes I actually tasted a 1" square of it) like a salt soaked piece of, churned fake meat." The meal consisted of a choice of vegetable (few options), mashed potatoes, gravy and dressing and cranberry sauce. The dressing and potatoes were so thin they were best eaten with a spoon, certainly wouldn't stay on a fork. The potatoes contained some other type of fake meat which may have been a fake bacon, and were still flavor less. The 1 tablespoon of canned cranberry sauce was served in a bowl of its own (why bother?), and stirred to hide the fact that it was canned. It actually tasted like the can. I managed to eat the soupy potatoes and dressing and left. Did I complain on the spot, no! There was no reason to complain. This wasn't a kitchen error that could be corrected. They knew what they were serving. This isn't my first attempt at eating there. I wasn't impressed before and this Thanksgiving dinner changed my mind about ever patronizing the restaurant again. read more

Dinner for five yesterday at this restaurant which we went to based on Yelp reviews and a recommendation from the front desk staff at our hotel. Fabulous service, outstanding food! Delicious salmon topping a wonderful salad of greens, excellent breakfast garden omelette made just as we requested (they do breakfast all day), pork chops, and steak tips--all were tremendous. The rack of ribs was huge, meat fell off the bone. The only suggestion I would make is that the ribs be cooked in the BBQ sauce rather than being cooked with the barbecue sauce then being ladled on top. Excellent peach apple cobbler a la mode! We were so lucky to find this place for dinner. Don't miss! read more

I know I've reviewed this restaurant before, but I feel it deserves another. The daily dinner specials are really great. I had the chicken tortellini and it was superior. My partner had the same and it was really tremendous The young folks in there go out of there way to make sure you are satisfied and the ambiance is clean and delightful I'm glad for the remodel so the wait is much better. Good food - great place read more

The good was the HOT food...the bad was the attitude....server was extremely short with us...anything we asked for seemed to have been met with arrogance....this was our first visit and I don't believe I would go back...do not like feeling uncomfortable to ask for something...I'm in the service business as well and work tirelessly to accommodate...I'm aware of what it means....i believe this lady was the owner read more

Good food, had to wait to be seated till our whole party arrived. Would have gotten appetizers if I had a table. Felt a little uncomfortable waiting with everyone staring at us. The food and service is very good though. read more

This is a small unassuming place in a strip mall that you really have to be looking for. We started to walk in and they asked how many in our party and asked us to stand outside while they got our table cleaned and ready for us. You are required to wear a mask when walking around the restaurant. All employees wore masks. Once the table was ready they seated us and brought us menus, water and asked if we wanted any other beverages. The waitress asked if we had any questions and she was very friendly and helpful. They serve breakfast all day and also have quite a few choices for lunch and dinner. I got the Sante Fe Omelette which comes with vegetables and hot peppers and blended cheeses. There are potato's on the side and toast. This omelette was delicious and very cheesy! My friend got a Rueben Sandwich and it came with the choice of French Fries, coleslaw or cottage cheese. He loved his sandwich and said it was a 5-star sandwich!! The food came out so quickly it was hard to believe, but it was very tasty and the total bill was $20 for 2 meals- very reasonable. They rang up my debit card right at the table. I would definitely come here again. read more

Needed a quick lunch but did not want fast food. Found Crimson Cafe on Yelp and it looked promising. The place is in a plaza and pretty unimpressive but do not be fooled by the outside! The inside was clean and comfortable. I noticed a lot of carry-outs making their way out of the place, so I figured that was a good sign. Bathrooms are single stall and decently clean. I believe the owner was our waitress and she was fabulous. Friendly and attentive! Simple but effective menu. Love that breakfast is served all day and good options for lunch/dinner. The prices are also affordable. I went breakfast and my husband went lunch. I got the french toast and bacon. Big portions of the french toast and good flavor. The bacon was cooked how I wanted - slightly crispy. My husband got the tomato basil soup and it tasted fresh and homemade - tons of flavor, especially the basil. The chicken Caesar salad was great - good amount of dressing, chicken was cut nicely and hot, and big portion. Everything came out pippin' hot! Really glad we found Crimson Cafe and I highly recommend you give it a try! read more

Just an update from last year!!! Only gotten better. Why would u eat anywhere else. Husband and wife team. He cooks, she serves. Feeling like ur a guest in their home. She's in top of everything. You can adjust ur meal to suit ur taste. The hubby's cooking, impeccable. Taste, presentation...entree salads, omelets, pasta, sandwiches, a huge choice for such a quaint cafe. I noticed lots of carry outs. Cannot beat the reasonable menu pricing. Pay attention to the hours. Closing mid afternoon some days. Dinner served other days. We paid attention as we didn't want to miss our visits. A delightful family, a very delicious meal. read more

Came into Crimson Café on Tuesday April 16th at 6pm and our waitress was Hannah.  I was so excited to see a Café open after he got off work.  We were coming back from grocery shopping and we had to stop.  My husband and I were seated quickly with a smile.  The waitress asked if we wanted anything and suggested strawberry lemonade. Both my husband and I went with the cheddar burger, he added bacon and removed all veggies while I didn't add bacon and only removed the tomatoes.  The husband wanted fries as his side while I went with coleslaw. We both also got the strawberry lemonade which came with sliced strawberries.  The staff was super friendly, freely talking and conversing with regulars.  (I hadn't even gotten my food at the point of writting this yet I feel at home and like I found a place I would want to come to regularly.)  So I sit at my table praying the food is amazing so I can enjoy the atmosphere of this grest little place. The lemonade, as my husband put it, was fire.  It was like a field of strawberries were crammed into my glass.  The burger was fantastic, super juicey and the cheese was gooey just the way I like it. We did order dessert, the cookie bite delight.  Maybe it was the other flavors floating around my mouth but it was kinda meh.  It wouldn't stop me from coming back but I will definitely order a different dessert or forgo dessert altogether next time. read more

Always a homemade feel to the food. You can taste the freshness and love in all the plates that they make. Service is always excellent, and the atmosphere is always positive. Truly an amazing place to take the family to! My favorite breakfast spot in all of SWMI!! HIGHLY recommend the fried pickles, the best i've ever had:) read more

This might be my favorite place to grab breakfast in the area. I've never been disappointed. But, I'd feel bad if I didn't recommend the smoked salmon scramble. Grab an Italian soda for the road. Or two. read more

Crimson Cafe - Two eggs, three bacon, breakfast potatoes and toast. Across the table was pork chops, breakfast potatoes and eggs. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Stevensville, Michigan

A hidden gem! Awesome food, polite staff and delicious sweets. Great prices and it offers breakfast all day and the lunch and dinner menus are excellent. The dessert my Dad had is the same if not better than any could 5 star beach front restaurant. It's just that good! If they have the Apple dumpling with ice cream and caramel sauce save room. It's worth the calories!!!! read more

The first rule for running a successful business where you service your customers personally face to face is to actually politely service your customers. This establishment failed in this department. Extremely rude impatient server (who appeared to be managing the joint at the time). What a way to represent your establishment. I truly wish we could've had the opportunity to see if the food was above par of the service but due to the severity of the service, that wasn't going to happen. Won't be back. read more

We needed a place near the road, where 4 members of our party could get the kind of food they liked. Most of the options available were fast food or fried everything. We came here because we had more options, and we all left happy! This restaurant is a family affair, and the owner definitely takes pride in satisfying the customer. We enjoyed some crispy rings, wings with Crimson Sauce, which were cooked perfectly. Dinner for 4 included a chicken wrap, shrimp pasta, a Denver omelette, and the lunch special (chicken breast, mushrooms, cheese on grilled sourdough). All were very happy making & we were back on the road in good time with yummies in tummies. A great alternative to the other highway-adjacent options. I'd definitely come back! read more

We went there today for lunch Everything was fantastic They have doubled the seating area. Plenty of room for groups Mindy is the Owner and was our waitress SHE IS FANTASTIC Her and I believe her husband (I believe he is the Chef) have poured their hearts and souls into this business and it shows Great Food, Appropriately Priced, Diner Atmosphere.

Crimson Cafe - Very neat and clean!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Stevensville, Michigan

I almost didn't write a review bc there were so many 5 stars, lol. I decided to write one though because everything was so good. The food all tasted homemade, with love. The owner served us, and her husband cooked. We started with the potato ham soup, YUM! I had a chicken wrap with the most delicious onion rings and my husband had a mushroom swiss burger with fries, both were very good. It's in a strip mall, but don't let that dissuade you. It's bright and clean and welcoming. You won't be disappointed. If we are ever in this part of Michigan, we will definitely stop back in! read more

Crimson Cafe - Front counter - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Stevensville, Michigan

The owners are there all the time making sure your order is perfect and comes out quick. I like the variety of their menu.

I was told by 3 people how good this place was for having "home cooked" food. When you travel in your job you soon get tired of the same restaurant canned food. This place is awesome and I'll be sure to return when in the area again. Highly recommended. Ribs were great but I was told that everything on the menu was great. read more

Fantastic family diner. Don't pay attention to Angie L (2 stars - and I read every one of her other reviews). The food was "best in class" as a fresh made family diner. Great service. The husband/wife did the whole menu (our first time there...we don't know their names... just traveling through). The wife was serving and the husband was cooking. The meal for both my wife and me - The lentil soup was better than my German grandmother's. The salad was fresh. The grilled buffalo chicken wrap was savory and well seasoned. The chorizo burrito was amazing. (I asked if they made their own chorizo, they don't, but they tasted a bunch to find the perfect one). The burrito came with potatoes that were perfectly seasoned...the kicker was a pinch of rosemary. I overheard a family at an adjacent table talking about the nights that the cafe has pot pies. This woman comes to the cafe early on those days before they may run out. The owner was talking about her teenage daughters and how they built up a cupcake business on their own. Note to Angie L: pay a little attention to what is around you and don't try to write reviews like a "food network star".... You might be impressed once in a while. read more

Excellent food, the owner was very friendly and attentive to all the guests. Its a cute spot!

Always a good meal! Not a lot of space so the wait for breakfast or lunch might be a bit longer but the food is good!

If this is the local Michigan hospitality for the area, then count us out! The blonde lady, who appears to run the place, served us and was so rude that I couldn't even look at the menu before knowing we needed to leave, and soon. Her high pitched voice, mixed with rushing around, and incessant one statement of "no, we do not" to the simplest questions, was a very good indication that she had better things to do that day than worry about pesky customers that morning. When she brought us the check (for just coffee cuz we were not staying!) she actually hit her hip on the edge of the counter in her rush to get away to the next thing. Whatever. No thank you, we will try a different local joint for a friendly breakfast. read more
