In Northern Michigan for a week this summer, my husband and I made plans with two other couples on…read morea Thursday evening. I suggested PK&B and they were all on board! I was hoping my third visit to Pour (and my husband's first visit) would be as amazing as my first two experiences... Sadly, it was not. It started out okay... I made a reservation on Open Table, we showed up on time, got seated, ordered drinks, etc... We had some drinks, ordered food, and then our server came back to let us know that they were completely out of sushi for the evening. Considering I spoke up the TIger Roll, and the rest of the menu is a bit limited, this definitely put a wrench in our evening. We made the best of it, had a variety of other food including poke nachos, oysters, salad, a burger, bulgogi, etc... but we couldn't get over the fact that they ran out of sushi. Oh well... Ambiance was still pleasant and the company was great. I would return but can't bring myself to keep that five star rating after that experience... Hopefully next time will bump it back up, whenever that may be!

Gentleman training her was rude from the moment we walked in, probably due to our 4 small children who were almost silent for our entire visit. When ordering our kids water, and asking if they happened to have lids, he replies very rudely "this is a bar, we have whisky and beer". We then proceeded to get dirty looks from him and other patrons for the remainder of our visit. Needless to say we finished our drinks and didn't stick around long enough to order food.

The portions are big, the food is fresh and delicious, and this is just a heavenly experience. We had Clive's pasties--just out of this world. We had a hot dog and hush puppies that were delicious, as well as a fantastic order of poutine. Desert was beignets and fried Oreos. I cannot rate the absolute goodness of this food highly enough. Even better, they use compostable packaging. This restaurant does not disappoint.

I hope this review helps other couples make the right decision if you've been considering Mission…read moreTable for your wedding. We initially booked Mission Table for our October 2025 wedding and ultimately decided to change our plans due to unforeseen life circumstances. From the beginning, communication was challenging. I had to follow up multiple times on basic planning questions -- like scheduling our ceremony rehearsal -- and often received delayed, vague, or conflicting responses. At one point, we were contacted to provide guest meal choices a full year before the event, which added to our growing concerns about how organized and prepared the team was. Barb, the event director, was difficult to communicate with and came across as unhelpful and inflexible. Madi, who was introduced as our main contact, seemed unaware of key details and unprepared to support us in the way most couples reasonably expect when booking a high-end wedding venue. When we ultimately let them know we'd need to cancel the event (six months in advance), their response was brief and dismissive -- no empathy, no effort to work with us, and no goodwill gesture despite our proactive and respectful communication. Looking back on the entirety of our experience with their team, we honestly feel like we dodged a bullet by not holding our wedding there. The venue is beautiful, and that's what initially drew us in -- but unfortunately, the lack of professionalism, warmth, and basic coordination behind the scenes was not something we felt we could trust with such an important day.

We had to make a reservation for a Friday night on Memorial Day weekend. Service was excellent. The bar seating never filled up so that's your best chance if you didn't make a reservation! It's on the smaller side of a place, but it is very cute and you can tell you're about to eat a really great meal!

Worst fine dining fancy food experience ever on August 4, 2026…read more 1. The server was wearing a tank top with his armpit hair out in the wild. 2. The devilled egg's egg white was cold and the rest of the filling was weird room temperature 3. The mixed green salad was supposed to have marinated mushrooms in them, first there were none in mine. My partner's mixed green salad had one mushroom, thinly sliced, not marinated definitely. It was just a bunch of arugula with pine sprinkled on top of it. 4. The vegetable portage soup was actually good. 5. The bread was fine too 6. The tomato salad thin was basically a big slice of tomato with some other stuff on top of it. Only the pickled strawberries were good. But if you want tomato juice get that salad 7. The brannzino was a whole fish. Okay that sounds interesting and looked good. But wait, they didn't give separate plates for deboning it. Cherry on top-also took away the cutlery after the last course. So no cutlery, no plate, and no deboning skills in their regular amateur customer. That's was fun. 8. Lamb chops were under seasoned and unevenly cooked and fatty. 9. Of course didn't even bother asking for dessert. 10. They gave us some small cookies for dessert on the house. That was ok. 11. The bill was $400+ which definitely did not feel like it and safe to say never going there again.

Cocktails & wines were promptly served followed by their fresh cut slaw and delicious baskets of warm bread. Now our entrees were placed with the waitress and by some error in the pickup line in the kitchen, I received a larger serving of the fried shrimp dinner. Well the other guys at the table suffered when I refused to share the unexpected bounty! Finished the lot with just enough cocktail sauce - perfect finale. As the check was presented, the staff gathered to sing the birthday tune to little brother, who hide his face in embarrassment. Lastly they brought out a decadent Ice Cream concoction which was attached by a pack of Wolves. Love the feel of their bar, main room and banquet space.
