This place has been a staple for our northern Michigan visit for over 20 years. Since covid the…read moreplace and quality has fallen off. Specials are out, NO white fish and no scallops, shrimp Lenny was dry AF and had a drop of sauce. While pricing has gone up significantly. Service was average. Eva was our server. She did her best with the kitchen and hostess handing her lemons. Had to ask a few times for some things.. Like the scallops and had a return of web to wedge with unripe lettuce. Never got handled. We asked since nothing was gonna be done for it to be taken off the bill. Once seated we were sat at 8 top for 11 people and had to argue with the hostess and threaten to leave and then again ask our server for an additional empty table. It was resolved. Food menu is shrinking and price have gone up 20% over last year. To start we always arrive early and have a drink and pictures on the back patio . The Bartender had no idea how to make a Boulevardier. And didn't even know where to look? The ambience has become a burger and trailer park crowd. We probably won't come back until they bring back menu items, improve quality of food coming out or lower prices or expectations This is NOT the same DLB sadly. I don't normally leave reviews like this unless there are major issues that are NOT resolved at the local level. No attempts were made to correct salad issue until I asked the waitress. Dinner was better but the perfectly cooked stake but room temp and was not salted. I asked for kosher salt and it was brought out promptly. Our visit was on Thursday at 7:15 pm. No excuses for things to be this bad! I haven't been this unimpressed since eating a Mcdonald's hamburger. It's become Culver's with overpriced stakes :( Also this dining experience was on a Thursday night where the place was 3/4 full. Sadly our tradition ends with the DLB. We hoped after the last two years it could have been better. We tried but it wasn't.

Since they want to delete my other review on Google, I'll make one on here. Stephanie was great!…read moreThe owner on the other hand absolutely horrible. Making rude remarks. Yelling across the bar stating she would press charges to a guy who was not near the pool table with a beer in his hand. My friend went to get a water and she walked past and said 'god she's needy' for a glass of water. Unless you are in the pellston clicks expect to be treated this way. I will not be going back especially as a paying customer and getting treated like that with the group I was with. Do not recommend! Save yourself the disappointment, and find somewhere else that is nice and professional.

Hardest review I have ever written. We were thrilled to try this place, and horribly let down by…read morethe experience, specifically by the server. The good - the atmosphere is great, the vibe pretty accurately replicating a French bistro. The food (what we did get) was good. Steak frites was awesome. The bad - never has a server failed so miserably. How? 1. Brought the wrong wine, then lied by insisting the house red was in fact a Côtes du Rhône. 2. Forgot two soups, delivered our entrees, said the soups were "coming" and reported "almost here" when we were half done with dinner. 3. Wrong dressing delivered on the salad, then delivered a different dressing with the request for extra. 4. The topper - the manager's comp dessert was either wrong or the pastry chef has never seen a real Basque Cheesecake. The manager was appreciative for the feedback, but the "fix" was to not make us pay for the wine that was wrong or the soup that never came. Not exactly the experience that will make us rush back. I know that staffing "up north" is tough, but this place was full of servers who appeared well in control and efficient. We drew the very short straw. Eat here at your own peril.
