I had the anti-carb burger with a side salad, while he had the ribs and brisket. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere is cool and laid-back, with a full bar and a great beer selection. The Double Oak Old Fashioned was top notch, and the Saugatuck Lake Street Lager was the perfect beer to go with the BBQ. Great food, great drinks, great vibes, and genuinely wonderful service. There's a reason we made the drive back for a second visit, and we'll definitely be back again!

All in all great place for a beer lunch and or diner. I would definitely go back and try a few more menu items and beers. Diana S. Killed it. She must own the place or just super efficient!

Mannnnn.... I remember eating here as a kid, some 30 years ago…read more I can't believe they were open on the 4th of July! SCORE! This is the last Hot n Now left in existence, BUT I've heard thru the grapevine that they're actually making a comeback and opening more locations! My mom lives here back in Sturgis again... When we would come visit my aunts and uncles, we would stop here, some 30+ years ago, and it's just as I remember it. Being from Reno Nevada, when I come visit my mom, I try NOT to eat here, because I try to stay away from carbs, but I had to give in after an internal 3 day battle. I always forget what I ordered from the last visit, because it's usually years apart. This time (and probably last) I ordered the "Big Hot" with fries. It was perfect and sloppy, just how I like it. The fries were good, and I ordered fried pickles. They were a little greasy but super good. The menu is also very fairly priced. For the trash I would get at 5 guys for just me, I was able to buy 2 combo meals The lady who took my order and money was super sweet. I don't remember what iit looks like inside, and come to think of it, I don't know if I've ever even been! I hope they DO open more!

My friend ordered an olive burger and she didn't know it came with cheese but evidently there's does. We go back thru the drive thru and they wanted her to just take the cheese off. They actually made her another one but said they won't remake the mushroom Swiss cause there wasn't anything wrong with it. Yeah there was IT WASNT HOT! The cheese was not even slightly melted like it would have been if the burger was hot. They surely don't live up to there name it should be Cold and Disgusting not Hot n Now! If you want something hot order the fries or cheese curds since they have to deep fry them.

Again she didn't even apologize. My boyfriend ordered the fish which was fried the pieces were very very thin and it was very very soggy.

For my first time here I am so disappointed. My husband hyped me up for this place as his first…read moretime here he was more than stellar. I was torn between getting the Mottville Cheeseburger or the Breaded Tenderloin I asked our waitress if the tenderloin was a prefab patty. She just said that it comes pre-bredded. She didnt really anwser... so...I still am not sure. We shared a sampler platter, and hubs had the whitefish (lemon pepper flavor) with loaded baked potato, and unsweet tea, I had the Mottville cheeseburger and fries with a coke. Our waitress seemed rushed when taking our order. (We were there during the dinner hour so I completely understand being busy and the weekend and needing to turn tables) She didnt ask me how I wanted my burger cooked and she didnt ask what cheese I wanted, I didnt know what cheese even came with it as it did not state on the menu. Our sampler arrived, it contained onion rings, greenbeans, mushrooms and mozzarella sticks. It came with 2 dipping sauces. Both of our sauces were ranch. (Wish I would not have had to ask for marinaria by the time our waitress brought it our the cheese sticks were already cold and past their prime) When my food arrived she sat it on the table and left just as quickly as she came. Did not ask me if my burger was to my liking or anything. However, I did hear her ask the table behind us how everyone wanted their steak and their fish cooked. (Not sure why my hurger would have been any different) For my liking my burger was way more pink than I would have liked. I did not complain and I did not say anything as we also were not asked how our meal was. The resturant seems clean at the surface however it did feel a bit claustrophobic. Dark and low celings. There is a nice section of the resturant that looks outward toward the river and has a nice view. The mirrored wall on the other side is something left to be desired for my taste. For the price... the portion size seemed a bit off... perhaps one more filet for the fish and maybe a few more fries or a smaller portion of fries and a second side would be nicer. I'm not sure with what we recieved if $63.00 was worth it, and unfortunately our server was not as helpful as she could have been. The food was just mediocre at best and nothing to really write home about. Will I be back... Most likely as my husband likes this place. I just hope that next time it won't be during dinner service and I hope that our waitress could be a little more accommodating and anwser questions about the menu when asked.

We saw some good reviews and had hopes for this one. When we entered we were quietly greeted, found…read morea table to where our waitress said I'm sorry ahead of time, I've never done this before. We put in our drinks in and weren't sure what we wanted and asked for a few minutes. She returned to give us our drinks, which she also messed up on bc she couldn't remember what we asked for and we were still unsure what we wanted so we put in our kids order. She came back again and got our order. Then she just disappeared. You couldn't flag her attention one bit. Our drinks were empty, still couldn't flag her down. Finally the food came out but not like we had ordered. Like stated above we put in our children's order since they were hungry and we were still unsure. Yet all the food came out at the same time. Not only that but we asked for our eggs over hard and when they came to us they were over easy, simple mistake that can be fixed right? Nope, the person cooking loudly said, "you can't cook these any harder." Wow, well I'm sorry but they were clearly overeasy and my autistic niece is very particular about not having runny eggs. Our waitress was hardly around still and after that we got the check bc they had also forgot our bacon. No apologies or anything for the mistakes. Definitely won't be back. So rude. Paying over 70 for that and the kids were still hungry.

The menu is decent, but could always use a little tweaking. The burgers are really good, but it would be even better if they weren't straight from a box. The toppings are fresh, and we have enjoyed them. The fries are nicely done and pair up with a burger just fine. They want to serve some Mexican dishes, but I feel that they fall really short here, so we steer away from them. Beer prices are pretty steep.and they don't offer any happy hour pricing, so it's a one beer kinda place for me. All in all, it's a clean and nice place that offers decent food, but prices are a little more than I would think for a place like this.
