The wait was about an hour for food, but Shelby told us this up front (she's the best, btw!). There are spots on the patio to overlook the lake and a good amount of space inside. It was crowded for a Friday night at 7pm, but it was great seeing it packed. We'll definitely be back!

We haven't always found the food to be reliable, but it looks as though their menu has been changed and simplified. There used to be a crazy variety of heavy cream sauce dishes, liver and onions and Italian dishes - the overly wide variety you know can't all be homemade. (NOTE THAT A LOT OF NEGATIVE REVIEWS ARE FROM YEARS AGO.) The new menu is more focused and pared down. Our first taste of the new offerings was via room service on our 20th anniversary. (Room service menu is limited, food comes out of the same kitchen.) I enjoyed my BBQ brisket, my husband said his burger looked okay but had no flavor. Quality of beef is everything in a good restaurant burger, people! Fries were like McDonald's. We shared a Greek antipasto with an enormous slab of good feta cheese, cucumbers, pickled beets, Greek olives, marinated peppers, avocado, red onions and a sweet champagne lemon dressing that was homemade. There was only a bit of spring greens mix, but I can't complain as this wasn't described as a "salad". The brisket was smoked well and was pretty tender. The sweet BBQ sauce caramelized really well with the fat (it's not a lean cut of meat) and produced a great flavor-texture combination. Husband tasted it and agreed it was the best thing to ever come out of Topsiders. We live in East Tawas and have eaten here dozens of times. Old Topsiders was 2.5 - 3.0 stars. New Topsiders a 3.6 - 4.0 stars so far. We have very few solid choices here, so this is exciting! Appreciate the updates, look forward to more. Pleasantly surprised and quite happy!

Here we are in Oscoda, Michigan - up north on the sunrise side of the state! After visiting our…read moremother, me and my sister sets out to go home after one night's stay. We just left Mom in the nursing home dining room and we are driving and I said I am getting a little hungry! So, I make the executive decision to eat at a restaurant with a view of Lake Huron! Lo and Behold there was a resort by the name Tawas Bay Beach Resort and I am sure that they have a restaurant with a fine view of Lake Huron. So, we decide to stop there. The outside was quite nice it sort of reminded me of any other fine Hotel. So we enter by where the restaurant is located and go into the restaurant area. Quite a few people were seated already. Me and my sister thought that maybe there was a family reunion going on at this particular resort. We are seated near a window overlooking Lake Huron. We see sailboats and people on the beach. Very calming and beautiful! The waiter comes out and gives us menus and takes our drink order. Very nice young man, his name is Jake. He takes our food order. We both order a chicken BLT sandwich and it comes with fries. We sit there and take in the ambiance. It is a little loud because there were children, but that is all good! The waiter shared a story about a bald eagle diving for fish in Lake Huron which was quite amusing. He mentioned that he loved his job and it showed through his service. The only thing that he missed was our silverware! But, that was easily solved. I mentioned to him that we do YELP reviews and the next thing you know we both receive a Cannoli on the house! How wonderful. Definitely will go back and if I am not hungry I will just order the Cannoli - OMG it was like heaven on earth! See pictures that I am attaching - definitely a do again especially since the sunrise side has so very few fine dining!

Ate there several times in the food was just awful. But apparently they were bought by the people who owned mangoes about three years ago or so, and decided to give it a whirl for a drink. They've completely remodeled the inside and it's much nicer. The staff was fantastic. They have a really cool draft of your system that delivers your beer really cold with very little head. I've seen the system on TV and it was kind of cool seeing it in person. I'm gonna wait to give it a higher rating when I can try the food sometime. But so far they've done a great job.

The waitress/bartender was very standoffish/rude as I was the only female at the bar. (Tues. Sept 24, 2024). All I wanted was something to eat to go and have two beers and leave. She was not friendly to me whatsoever.. Was right to the point but was the nicest to all the dudes there (hon, baby, sweetie). I stopped in by myself just to get a meal and go did not feel welcome at all. She made me feel like an outcast (as Im not a weekly regular) that was cramping her style!!! I definitely won't be returning on a Tuesday. BTW, the owner's were not there. She probably would have had a different attitude towards me if they were! Non regular ladies beware!
