My family and I went here to bowl a couple nights while we were in town and we had a great experience! It was fairly inexpensive to bowl and the lanes, balls, shoes, etc. all seemed fairly new and in really good condition. We had a lot of fun! We also ordered some food including chicken tenders, friends, cheese curds. All of the food we ordered was really good and better than expected for a "bowling alley" even though this spot is much more than just that. We look forward to coming in again during our next visit in town!

She made a great Long Island and was so helpful giving us some info on places to find the rocks we were looking for. We split the appetizer and it was delicious. The chili on the cheese fries was soooo good and the little pretzels were so soft and yummy especially dipped in the beer cheese. Wish we could have hung out there longer. They had an adorable little bowling alley, numerous pool tables and games.

I was pleased with the fish sandwich I had selected while Sally opted for a beef dip. We both shared a generous order of fries which were served with a unique sauce that had a hint of horseradish??? Aditionally a large platter of condiments and compliments was available. The fresh sliced sweet onions looked so good I could have eaten them by themselves. We would have never considered ordering dessert at lunch until we saw several "locals" enjoying raspberry pie and testifying to the merits of the selection. It was fantastic!!! We can't wait to return.

Everything was perfect, I ordered the Cream Puff with Peppermint Stick ice cream and ate the whole thing! Great venue, if you are here during the week you should stop in

I started with their Seafood Chowder ($10) this is said to be loaded with Shrimp, Clams and Crab. I could identify these things individually, however taste wise it was excellent.  I definitely wished the cup of it had been bigger. Price seems a little steep for portion size, but no complaints taste wise. I then ordered their Fried Chicken ($19) this had Golden-Fried Breast, Drum and Thigh with Mashed Potato and asparagus. The chicken was excellent, well seasoned and crispy, but still juicy. The asparagus was cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were undercooked. A little harder then I prefer them to be, but edible and at least it was real potatoes. The service was great. Super cheerful and helpful. They accidentally put someone else order on my bill and they corrected it with cheer. Overall a couple minor issues, but still a solid 4 star review for me. Would I return? Absolutely!

That being picky though, the place feels welcoming and is brightly lit and feels well cared for. I ordered the Pot Roast ($20). It's described as slow roasted with carrots and onions and mashed potatoes. It was fantastic. The meat was tender and delicious. the gravy was perfect without overpowering. The carrots and onions were a great compliment. Plus the real mashed potatoes were made to perfection. Smooth, yet still had the potatoness to the texture. The taste was one of the better mashed potatoes I've had in TC. I don't know what they do th their TC Cherry Coke, but it is spectacular. Lastly for dessert I got their Lava Cake ($7), it was fine, but disappointing after such a great meal. I don't know if it was from frozen or what. However the texture was a little off andvthe taste was only okay. I wouldn't get it again. The service was very friendly and super helpful. Overall a 4 1/2 star review. Since I have to round, I'm going to forgive the dessert and give a full 5 stars. Would I return? Absolutely. Especially if I'm craving Pot Roast.

We had wanted to sit on the rooftop to enjoy the views but it wasn't opening until 4PM so we didn't get to experience that. The clam chowder was on special so I ordered that to start with some peel and eat shrimp, cold- you can get them hot or cold and they were perfectly done and the cocktail sauce wasn't so strong that it overpowered the shrimp which was appreciated. My husband and I shared the trout basket and they were very lightly breaded, not greasy at all and well seasoned. My son ordered a cheeseburger and raved about it so much that he told our waitress on the way out that it was 5-star worthy. Note: he orders burgers everywhere we go so I trust his judgement . It was cooked how he asked- medium rare- and was thick and juicy to top it off. If you're looking for a spot with friendly service and delicious food- it's a must try in Sutton's Bay.

We LOVE the New Orleans vibe it's fun, colorful, a little quirky, and has so much personality. It feels like an experience rather than just another restaurant. For date night, one of our favorite things to do is basically order the entire appetizer menu, share everything, be ridiculous, and have fun together. The food is phenomenal and it's the perfect atmosphere for a date that doesn't need to be fancy or serious to feel special. But we also love that we can turn around and bring the family, and it works just as well. It's welcoming, relaxed, and there's something for everyone. Great food, fantastic atmosphere, and a place where we've made some genuinely fun memories.

We didn't end up getting an outdoor table, but we were pleasantly surprised when they seated us almost immediately. Our server was fantastic and very attentive throughout the meal. We had read a few reviews mentioning slow service, but that definitely wasn't our experience. We were 100% satisfied with the service we received. The food was delicious, and there were a lot of great options on the menu. Prices were what you'd expect for this type of restaurant, and we thought everything was well worth it. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and the whole place had a great vibe. We were really impressed with Oaky's Tavern and would definitely recommend it to anyone in the Interlochen area. Great food, great service, and a really enjoyable place to grab a meal.

I arrived 60 mins before the rest of our large party was to arrive to put our name down. It was a 45 min wait. It was a Thursday evening and this place was hopping.

The parking lot is tricky as well as there were barely any spots and many would drive in and not find a spot and then drive out. Once we were seated, we had great service.

Barrel Back is one of those restaurants I have really mixed feelings about because the food itself…read morecan be amazing. Their brisket is genuinely unmatched. We've had brisket at plenty of other places and nothing compares to theirs and it is absolutely the reason we continue coming back. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience doesn't consistently live up to the food. Wait times for food are often very long, and across multiple visits we've found the servers generally aren't very attentive. The other major issue is the price. It's very expensive for the amount of food you actually get, and especially in the current economy, that's hard to overlook. When you're paying that much for a meal, I think it's reasonable to expect not only excellent food, but excellent service and an overall experience that feels worth the price. That's ultimately why I'm torn. The brisket is five-star brisket, but the overall value and service aren't five-star. We'll probably still find ourselves coming back because apparently that brisket has a hold on us, but better service, shorter waits, and pricing that feels more proportional to the portions would make a huge difference.
