Food was ok. The whitefish had bones. When I said something I was told that sometimes happens. They were not concerned. Stewed tomatoes were luke warm. Server got our bills wrong. All in all a little disappointed read more

Lovely meal with great service. They don't take reservations, but the food is delicious! Escargot, perfectly cooked whitefish and duckling in cherry sauce. We were lucky enough to snag one of the window seats and could people watch while we dined. read more

Food- appetizer dishes were delicious. The mushroom ravioli was prepared just right and had a mild flavor. Crabcakes were seasoned well and flaky. Onion soup had a funky flavor. Filet mignon was tender and tasty. Green beans were tender but needed some flavor. Baked potatoes dry. Homemade hashbrowns were flavorful but were overly greasy. The chicken schnitzel was on the dry side. Whitefish needed some more sauce and had no flavor.... did not taste fresh. Coleslaw was crispy but tasted packaged. Service- fair and friendly Ambiance- old lakeside restaurant Would not return. read more

The food and experience is always good at Terry's. I was concerned when it changed hands a few years ago when Terry Left sold The Villager Pub and Terry's, the high end restaurant. However, the new owner has been able to keep the same quality that existed before. read more

Crowded and noisy due to a WAILING baby. At least get a pacifier for the child. Total lack of respect for the rest of the Terry's diners! Okay enough about the evening's ambience. Our server was prompt & reasonably responsive. Good wine suggestions and recited the evening's dinner featured entrees. French Onion soup was thick, like they had buzzed it with a blender & the crouton was shredded. Now on to the main dishes - we all ordered the Hash Browns as our option. PUT DOWN THE SALK SHAKER CHEF! Nearly inedible! The Walleye made up for their heavy sodium hand but Linda's & my SIL's Perch was slightly over cooked. My brother ordered the Schnitzel, he is not a seafood guy, and it was over breaded & darkly fried. Really disappointed our dinner experience was tainted, but will of course return to Terry's again this season. All these holiday visitors strain the workers with their demands. Just roll with the punches folks - life's short Happy & safe 4th everyone! read more

This felt like a very old-school up north restaurant with the small dining room and the cottage cheese as a side. The food was outstanding- I found it hard to pick my meal to begin with, but ended up loving my perch, and everyone else had great things to say about their food as well. The service was also a little old-school, and was unfortunately a little stilted, but nice. We also felt a little rushed near the end when the party who was clearly there to take our table arrived and was waiting practically on top of us due to the small nature of the dining room. However, even with those odd notes, the food was incredible and we would absolutely return. read more

I had been to Terry's several years ago, and wanted to revisit with friends while passing through Charlevoix. The restaurant exceeded expectations. Great choices and service. Come at 5pm when they open, as they don't take reservations. read more

A great local spot with some unique dishes. Quaint restaurant with cozy feeling. Excited to go back and try more. Server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We got escargot and whitefish with lemon caper sauce. All delicious. read more

Our new favorite restaurant! The escargot in garlic butter was just the start of a great meal. I had the special, whitefish with lobster sauce and my husband had the veal with morel mushroom sauce, both were phenomenal. Get there early as they don't take reservations and there was s wait when we left at 6:30p. read more

First of all we have been frequenting this restaurant for 20 pus years. First bad experience. Salads came before we ordered our food. Waiter took salads back and we had washed he left them. Hoping things would get better the waiter delivered the check after we waited 1/2 hr with no water (not exaggerating) and with dirty plates in front of us wanting to order dessert. The food was good. Very disappointing experience. read more

This is probably one of the best restaurants in the area. We eat here often and always enjoy our meals. Tonight we had mussels. Escargot, Caesar salad and a wedge salad. Everything was really tasty. Also the Grand Marnier soufflé is a MUST. The service is always good. Recommend any of the fish dishes, you really can't go wrong. It gets busy in the high season so prepare for a wait. read more

Dined at Terry's Saturday night. It was a great experience. Both the food and service were excellent. The veal with morels was over the top. Chris was our server and did a great job. I only wish that they took reservations. read more

Terry's Place absolutely blew me away and is hands down one of the best restaurants I have been too! This quaint restaurant is conveniently located in downtown Charlevoix and has the atmosphere of a small family owned restaurant. The staff was super friendly and we were able to quickly sit down without a reservation on a Saturday night (we did go in October which I believe is the off season for this area). The portions are VERY generous given the price and quality. The flavor was out of this world - I had some of the best fish and the most amazing key lime pie in my life. This is an absolute must if you are in the area! read more

My fiancé and I were in charlevoix for the weekend for the first time. We asked many people where they thought the best dinner spot was and the consensus was terrys place. Boy were they right. Every aspect of our night was perfect. From service, to food, to drinks, I was blown away. Christine was our waitress and she was absolutely incredible - super friendly and made some of the best dirty martinis we'd ever had. I ordered the special, the blackened white fish, and my fiancé got the veal morel. Both of these dishes were beyond incredible. The fish EXPLODED with flavor and the beurre blanc sauce served with it was the perfect match. Easily the best whitefish I've ever had. The veal morel with angel hair was phenomenal. All the flavors and played together so perfectly. The morel mushrooms were an awesome touch. I would eat these meals every week if I could. Just perfect. What an awesome spot, I can't wait to visit again. read more

Always a great, consistent, filling, and skillfully made meal. Staff is super attentive and always makes me look forward to my return! read more

It was a slow Thursday night - the service was incredible & the food delicious. Great place if you're in Charlevoix. read more

Can't say enough great things!! We had excellent service- friendly, informative and quick. Very nice selection on wines and they have a full bar but we stayed with a bottle of wine. As we were visitors I was curious what the price of a bottle was and it's so reasonable! But of course the food is the main star!!! We started with French onion soup. We've spent months in France, had a French friends mom teach us how grandma made onion soup and always try it at other restaurants ending up disappointed. Not the case here. It's as if we were in a French bistro having onion soup. It may sound over exaggerated but really it's not. I was so happy, so excited that I could have ordered more bowls and made it my meal! But we didn't stop there. Our fish came with a nice salad and the house made ranch is really nice. Then our meals, I had the white fish filet with pistachio and lemon butter sauce. To. Die. For!!! My husband had the walleye and he was brought back to his younger days of fishing in Canada and catching Walleye. We both absolutely loved our meals. The fish is fresh and nothing takes away from them. I wish we lived around here to continue to go back, maybe one last time before we head home. read more

We've been coming to Terry's for well over 20 years now. A Charlevoix staple for us. It's one of those places that I know we will have a good meal and see a few familiar faces. Food is always delicious. Husband always orders the white fish grenebois with hash browns and green beans. I usually order the chicken schnitzel or NY Strip, both excellent. It's one of those comfort places you can always go back to and it will still look and feel exactly the same. read more

I've been a satisfied customer here for years. Tonight, they had a feature menu for Mother's Day and I was blown away!

Great food and great service in a small, friendly atmosphere. We come here every time we come to Charlevoix.

I've had many delicious meals in Northern Michigan and Terry's is no exception. In fact, my brother likes Terry's so much that he wanted to eat here 2 out of his 4 night vacation. We were lucky enough to join him one night. Unfortunately, you can't make a reservation, but somehow we scored a table for 8 with no wait. When they saw that 3 of our 8 were small children they asked us to give them a minute and found a lovely table in the back for us. There's no kids menu here, but they will make buttered noddles which suited our hungry little ones. In fact, my son ate the entire plate of pasta before declaring he didn't actually like it and would need something else to fill him up (as in dessert...nice try). I went with the whitefish, green beans and sweet potato and couldn't have been happier. The whitefish was cooked to perfection and I'd likely order the same exact thing next time. I found the service in Northern Michigan to be much slower than what I"m used to in Chicago and while there was a little wait for our food, they were faster than most of the other restaurants we dined at. Overall, absolutely delicious and I'll be making a stop there for future trips. read more

Great dining experience. We've been going the for almost 20 years. Still going strong - including the change in ownership.

I really enjoyed my dinner here. I had the Whitefish Grenoboix (beurre blanc sauce with capers). The green beans were amazing..tiniest haricot vert I've ever had and so tender. Loved the stewed tomatoes, too, and my salad was super fresh. The creme brûlée had raspberries baked in and was topped with blackberries. Service was fabulous!! Thanks fellow Yelp reviewers for steering us this way as it was well worth the visit! read more

Incredible food! Loved the seafood options. Helpful staff! Great find in Charlevoix!!

I'm afraid to write a review because it's a great place! And was open on a Monday night!! Consistently good food, fantastic and attentive wait staff, just wish the ice cream was Hagen Daaz for the gold brick sundae. If that's my only complaint, then you know it's a great place! One day I'll try something other than the whitefish almondine....then again it's so good, why get anything else? read more

I could go in about Terrys forever. The steaks, service, ambiance, wine selection, cocktails, desserts, all excellent. Chicken schnitzel, any of the pasta dishes, Long Island duck, garlic stuffed filet, salad, stewed tomato's, and of the fish dishes. The best part is (as a local) Terrys runs specials in the colder months. Dinner for two with a bottle of wine and soufflés. OH! The soufflés. They are Out Of This World! read more

Small enough you could miss it, but definitely a dinner we'll remember. The food was fantastic for everyone! One of us is celiac and all gluten free options were explained. Two others are from the area and hadn't heard of Terry's so they were skeptics, but left wanting to go back. We got there at opening since no reservations or call ahead seating and we were able to get in. read more

Food was excellent and service was great! My wife had the chicken schnitzel and I had the whitefish special.

Terry is a local favorite right in the downtown of Charlevoix. They are known for there delicious whitefish entrees. The Almondine version is hands down the best. They use an also light lemony sauce to go over the top . Most entrees come along with a dinner salad . They have a decent amount of dressings to choose from . The shrimp provencale is our favorite pasta and it comes loaded with shrimp. We will always continue to make terry's a part of our up north traditions ! read more

Come early, this place is busy! We had the nicest waiter, Benjamin. Very helpful, honest, kind, enthusiastic. Attentive and efficient despite a crowded evening, knowledgeable about the menu. The escargot and mushroom ravioli were fabulous. The whitefish and walleye were buttery melt in your mouth. We had a good bottle of white wine for not a fortune. We had a lovely night after a long day of hiking. read more

Delicious, high quality food with outstanding and kind service. My husband and I had a great experience here tonight. From the wine, to the apps, to dinner, to even the bread rolls, everything was exquisitely done and delicious. Great service from our server Jill as well, she was so nice and really informative on everything. My favorite thing we ate was the Wild Mushroom Ravioli appetizer - WOW, truly one of the best things I've ever had in my life. We also had escargot which was perfect. I had the stewed tomatoes side with my whitefish dinner and it was so simple yet absolutely amazing. I would definitely return here when we come back to Charlevoix! read more
