Hand dipped ice cream as well as soft serve are available, plus a couple dairy free options.

Very friendly and very generous with all the soft serve items! Tables were clean with seating inside and out. While they are not Moomers, they also don't have ridiculous lines.

Check out their Facebook for the weekly specials and photos. They have amazing appetizers such as the zucchini strips that we adore and dip them in every kind of sauce that they have. The burgers are absolutely juicy plus the toppings make it even better, unique flavors that you can't care anywhere else. We also love the fact that you can get a mini version of the burgers if you can't eat a whole one, because it's such a generous portion!

You can still taste the quality meat that was cooked perfectly. I upgraded ($5) to the Onion Ring combo. The onions were large and thick with a nice coating on them. Nice and crunchy and very tasty. The service was a mixed bag. The 1st interaction was okay. A little lackluster in the energy. I forgot my coat and I came back n to grab it. It was set by the counter waiting for me. Since I was there I was going to order a shake. However the attendant was too busy having a conversation in the back to serve a customer. Overall a solid 4 star review. The food is probably 5 star, but the service brings it down to a 4. Would I return. Yes, the food is definitely worth a visit.

Smash burger excellence! Limited options but they do them well. Burgers with deliciously crispy edges, toppings that stay on the burger rather than sliding off onto your plate, and efficient friendly service ... we tried the Junction (double cheeseburger) and the Oliver (olive burger). Four burgers on the menu and two sandwiches. They have nuggets and grilled cheese for the kiddos too. Seating in four booths, three tables or counter service. A cooler with canned or bottled beverages is available. They were doing a steady mix of take out and dine in business during our Sunday afternoon visit. Word of advice, the parm fries could be split by four people.

I ordered their Bronco Burger ($15) which is a 1/3 # patty with Bacon, pepper jack cheese, and haystack onions, topped with their homemade bbq sauce. I also added a fried egg($?). The burger was good. Not all time good, but a very solid burger that I would be happy to eat again. Same with their fries, they were good, just not special. The only thing I did not like was their Cherry Lemonade, yuck. They seemed understaffed and were very busy at lunch time. That being said everyone was friendly abd everything was correct.

We had a rental house around the corner and it delighted me to have a little dessert and snack shop nearby. It's a walk up window specializing in soft serve treats like cones, sundaes, flurries, shakes and malts. The ice cream is smooth and dreamy! I had the turtle sundae and it was divine! My mom went for a soft serve with strawberries and we were impressed that it was chunks of fresh strawberries, not a fake syrup. My husband went with an orange float and it was made with local Northwoods soda. It was all so good! They also have a menu of savory snacks like soft pretzels, nachos, hot dogs, pulled pork sandwiches, and sloppy joes. We kept talking about stopping by for a pretzel but it didn't work out so I can't speak much to their savory offerings, unfortunately. The stand itself is adjacent to the GT Butterfly House & Bug Zoo and, upon looking the place up online, I learned that Kettlewell's is the name of a groundbreaking moth researcher and that's the kind of nerdy trivia that I live for.

Food - 3/5 Service - 1/5…read moreAmbiance - 4/5 My group of friends and I were visiting Michigan for a wedding and while stopping in Sutton's Bay, decided to get lunch at V.I. Grill! Three of us had the lunch special of a half sandwich of chicken salad with corn chowder and one got the perch basket. We decided to sit outside because it was a nice enough day so the ambiance was pretty good. The chicken salad sandwiches and perch were decent but the soup was underwhelming, thick and lacking seasoning. We decided against saying anything because there was salt and pepper at the table and that helped a little. I also added at least two tbsp of hot sauce. When we got the bill, I paid quickly after skimming it on their little handheld payment device. It wasn't until I was reviewing the bill later than I realized they added on a whole additional sandwich charge. I know servers are busy and it was probably an honest mistake but still frustrating for the bill to be wrong. I called the restaurant and they were nice about it but I had to call multiple times for them to look into it and their voicemail is completely full. I had returned home so it was not possible for me to go in person to resolve the situation. The restaurant is still in progress of resolving the situation so if they do, I will update my review and add a star for service.
