    Pam's Chicago style Italian beef with side baked beans
    Renee J.

    Carryout order. First time visit. After reading about the Original 3 little pigs, 1/3 lb pulled pork, 1/3 lb ham, 1/3 lb bacon with one side, I had to try it. I didn't realize it was a sandwich...and huge. Very good! Bacon nice and crispy, even with bbq sauce. For the side, sassy slaw...wow, really spicy hot pepper...too spicy for me. As 2 of us were eating, I ordered the Chicago style roast beef, with saute onions and melted cheese. This probably would have been excellent if eaten at restaurant, but the roll got too soggy on the way home. For this side tried the baked beans. Definitely not canned, good taste. They have a sign on front door that warns menu prices are cash, and there will be a 3.9% increase for credit card payments...fare enough, common practice for some Newaygo area restaurants. Definitely will be back to try other menu options....and eat at establishment.

    Holy cow!! Amazing pork nachos
    Jennifer L.

    Stopped here on a whim. The decor is really cool in here, and the service good. The food is great! I regularly get pork nachos, and these were hands down the best I've had! I ordered the BBQ pork nachos, and they had coleslaw on them - so delicious!! If you're out this way, you must check this place out!

    Onion rings just right

    Outstanding food. We went here on a recommendation and I am so glad I did. Almost missed it driving by, but smelled the smoker going right away. Walking in you think that it might be a little rough. Small town bar and it looks the part. No frills added but the decor fits. Old time items throughout the place. Just take a minute to look at the theme and you'll understand it. Felt right at home. The service was good. Very prompt and friendly. Now to the food. Started with onion rings of which I added a picture. Done just right and they were huge and very tasty. We both ordered the smoked pulled pork BBQ sandwich. You could smell the smoke aroma as soon as the plate hit the table. I added a touch more sauce than they had on there, which I thought was nice. Came with a little and you could always add more. If it came with to much, that's the way you'd have to eat it. My wife liked it the way it came. Nice cut fries with seasoning on them. I'll have to remember not to eat before passing through Grant again. I could only eat half my meal. I will stop here again for sure.

    Fries always come out cold. They are not friendly, especially when you point out the food is cold. Hotter than heck in the summer.

    The atmosphere here is a fun mixture of Modern Cottage with touches of a nautical theme. It is…read morelight and airy and very welcoming. I ordered their Duck Bacon & Sweet Corn Wontons ($22). This is Crispy rangoon pockets filled with fried duck bacon blended with sweet corn and cream cheese inside a fried wonton. Served with spicy honey. This was one of the best thing's I've eaten in years. They are absolutely delicious. I also ordered their 3 Meat Smoker Bbq combination ($40). I got Ribs, Brisket, and Smoked Wings. Served with baked beans, potato salad, and corn bread. The Ribs werd delicious. Tender and very tasty. The brisket was very good. The wings were good, but small. I got the Bourbon sauce and their Bbq sauce. The Bourbon sauce was excellent and the bbq sauce was tasty, but I definitely preferred the bourbon sauce. The baked beans were excellent. I'm a little bit of a baked bean snob, and these pass my test. The potato salad was okay, but I didn't finish it. The Cornbread was also excellent! The service was were this place failed brilliantly. I walked in and was ignored by the older lady who was having a slow conversation with another customer and didn't even acknowledge me. I decided to use the restroom. When I came out there was a girl on the phone for 5 minutes for someone making a reservation. Again didn't even acknowledge me. Their was the older lady standing back by the bar, looked like either an owner or manager, just having a conversation with another employee the entire time. Just ignoring me. Finally a waitress walked up after waiting way too long and asked If I'd been helped. After being seated it took almost 10 minutes to get served. The place wasn't even 50% full, so there was no excuse. After finally ordering the service was hit or miss. Okay for a little bit then absent again. When I was actually served it was very friendly. I was considering ordering one of their new shakes, but with the absentee service a d her nit even asking if I wanted dessert, I decided against it. Overall the rating is difficult. The food and atmosphere definitely deserve a 5. The service was so bad the rating should be a 3 at best. However considering those Wontons I'll give the place an iffy 4 star review! Would I return? If only for the Wontons than an absolute yes.

    We chose this restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday and left wishing we had gone somewhere…read moreelse. The evening started with my husband trying to order a beer. The first choice was unavailable, then the second, then the third. After joking with our server that if the fourth beer wasn't available she should just bring us both Cokes, she returned to let us know that one was unavailable as well. To her credit, she did bring the Cokes!! After placing our order, there was a lengthy wait before any food arrived. We were at the restaurant far longer than expected for a meal consisting of soup, salad, and a steak dinner. Unfortunately, much of the food was barely warm, and some items that should have been served hot were cold. My husband ordered the porterhouse steak with French onion soup, waffle fries, and coleslaw. I ordered the fried goat cheese salad and onion petals. The waffle fries and onion petals were cold when served. When our server checked on us, we politely mentioned the issue. The waffle fries and onion petals were remade, but while the fries came back hot, the onion petals were still cold. Beyond that, there was little effort made to address the rest of the meal or improve the experience.
