    Great place! Breakfast has unique and standard options. Staff was very friendly and attentive even in a busy Mother's Day.

    This place has really turned into an amazing dining experience! My friends and I tried it before…read morethe covid thing and it was awful! The weird man Henry telling stories about how he used to be a chef made us feel bad for him. We went in again this past weekend and wow! The food was 1000 times better than before! The huge tables were so great we all fit and no uncomfortable wait while they shuffled things around. The ribeye was outstanding, and I loved how they have baked sweet potatoes as an option! Kudos to the chef he really knows his stuff.

    The atmosphere here fits into a classic Golf Course Clubhouse. It all looked clean, but it did seem…read morea little worn down. Plus it felt like they were trying to hide that with dim lighting. On a plus side they have a couple of live edge tables for sale that are really nice. I ordered a 3 Choice Bbq smokehouse combo ($27). I got Ribs, Pulled Pork, and Shotgun Shells. The ribs tasted decent, but were not tender at all, in fact I had to use my knife to separate the ribs. The Pulled Pork was very good. The Shotgun Shells, which are a group meat in a pasta shell wrapped in bacon and covered in bbq sauce, were good. However, the pasta shells were dried out and tough. The bbq sauces were very good. For the sides I got baked beans and deconstructed street corn. They were both very good, probably the best part of the meal. The person I was with ordered the Burger ($12). It was declared to be very good. The service was friendly, but not very efficient. Long periods of the waitress vanishing or talking with other waitresses. Overall a 3 1/2 star review. However I'll be rounding up to 4 stars, due to the sides, the pulled pork, the sauces, and the burger. Would I return? If I was in the area, then yes, otherwise no.

Being a burger joint, we obviously ordered everything but the burgers lol. We had a long trip ahead and didn't wanna feel too greasy but looking over at other tables later, the burgers looked delicious. I got the peach salad that came with curried pumpkin seeds and shredded asiago and croutons. I added grilled chicken for $4. I wished there were some fresh peaches on it but the salad was tossed in a peach dressing instead. The croutons also tasted like fried pieces of sandwich bread. I will say, I was so pleasantly surprised by how delicious this salad was! Holy cow, after a few days of camping, having vegetables was one thing, having this salad changed my outlook on life. My fiancé was a little saddened by the fact that we will be no where near this place (from Connecticut) becuase he thoroughly enjoyed his brisket wrap. Maybe it's the Mid Western charm and hospitality, but our experience was so great. After getting the bill, our waiter (who had two colored socks on and my friend thought he only had one, but alas, one sock was just black while the other was a hot pink) offered us our drinks to go and brought us back a full cup of iced tea and Dr Pepper. Our table of four left with a $70 bill which was fantastic, given that the food also satiated us to the best degree. All the way from CT, I wanna say: thank you Michigan. And thank you to the Gnarly Heifer, even though we did not taste your Heif.

    When one of my friends from Grand Rapids recommended a meet in the middle, me being from Lansing I…read morewas pretty skeptical, but what a pleasant surprise. We had a party of 8 and no reservations. As I drove up to the establishment I was taken by the great views of the lake and the public beach. They have two outside patios with one being a 2nd floor observation deck with a bar, beautiful, if you can get a seat as it is very popular. They accommodated us quickly and we were seated within 5 min without a reservation. Servers were attentive, helpful and friendly. The menu is large and varied and the prices moderate. The Ruben, a house special, was recommended and I ordered it. When it arrived I almost lost my mind, it was huge and delicious! Easily enough for two. Everyone in the party also really enjoyed their choices as well. Cocktails were on point. The one outstanding surprise was it had a bowling alley attached, but the noise from bowling was not discernable and what a cool thing to do perhaps during a winter visit. We will defiantly be back and I strongly recommended it even if it is a fair drive in from the expressway. Worth it.

I ended up putting the beer cheese on my burger! Phenomenal. Mel was our waitress. She was really helpful and even recommended the French Dip to my girlfriend which was also great. Their ranch is top of the line too. Can't wait to come back
