We made brunch reservations for today (Christmas Eve) at 1pm and both ordered the 'Over Easy Hash' bowl with potato, cheese, bacon, green peppers and crowned with two eggs...over easy, of course. Although they had a selection of alcoholic beverages, we opted for bottled water (the restaurant tap water has a 'rural' taste to it). The entire experience was exceptional, as we've come to expect from the folks at Coon Creek. Our server, Summer, has become our favorite of all the staff: she's prompt, pleasant and personable and we can't ask for more. Next year, call and make a reservation for Christmas Eve Brunch at Coon Creek...miles ahead of the rest! read more

Coon Creek - Over Easy Hash: one of several choices for their Christmas Eve Brunch - Smokehouse Near Me - Ray, Michigan

Went here with friends on a Sunday afternoon and glad I did. The food here is amazing and super friendly servers too. I real home town feel here, and it seats quite a few and has a long bar too. I will definitely do it again! read more

Went here for a family birthday and enjoyed it! We started with both the potato skins and calamari, both were good. As an entrée, I enjoyed the salmon and a side of macaroni and cheese. The salmon was terrific, crispy and flavorful. The macaroni and cheese left a lot to be desired. I found it bland and boring. The service was absolutely terrific. Summer was very kind and patient and answered all of the questions that we threw her way about their menu and dinner selections. The ambience was OK. Nothing out of this world, but for what it was, it was clean, modern and fit the area that is location very well. I found it to be a bit more expensive than I expected. I think based on the location and overall ambience, I expected it to be a little bit more affordably priced. Also, they really need to change the name. It sounds offputting when explaining to others and doesn't emphasize the quality food. If you're in the area, I would stop by. Not sure that I would drive 15 miles one way in the future. read more

Wanted to try this place because I've heard good things. Figured it would be busy so made a 730 reservation but got there early. No biggie I can wait. However, half the restaurant had empty tables and there were tons of parties waiting. So made my way towards the bar to get a drink while we waiting and the bartenders took forever to come take the order even after looking my way 3 separate times. Luckily we were able to get seats at the bar rather than wait for a table. Then things changed. The bartender/server was good, the sea food special that day sounded great. The clam chowder was amazing. The cakes were mediocre. All I could taste was tuna and there was no tuna in the sea food cakes. Overall food was ok, service was ok. But next time I go back I'll try something different. read more

We went here for the first time at the recommendation from a friend and we were not disappointed in the slightest. The service was quick to get a table (we had reservations), our waitress was incredibly kind, even letting us change tables as the sun was blinding at the first. The restaurant itself makes you feel like you're in a cabin up north and was pretty cool. The food-I cannot wait to come back and try more. My husband and I both had the NY strip. He had Mac and cheese & baked potato for side, and I tried the Mac and cheese & Caesar salad (I cannot wait to get the salad again). Everything was so fresh and delicious. Steak was cooked to a perfect medium-flavor on point & no extra sauce needed. Cannot come up with a single complaint (aside from putting some blinds on the window near the fake front door). We will be back soon & look forward to trying more items! read more

I have only been here a few times but was recently there on the way home from the lavender festival. Food was so so good!! Had the Brisket Sando with tater tots and asked for my coleslaw on the side. No complaints, super yummy! I'm not the biggest fan of creamy / sweet coleslaw and usually prefer a more vinegar crunchy slaw but it was still good! Service was okay, not terrible not outstanding. We weren't ready to order right away which understandably irritated our server. He was in the weeds and wanted to do his order of operations (I get it, I'm a server too!). My best advice is to not sweat it! Otherwise he was very kind and attentive, just needed to slow down and take his time. One major complaint: the water tastes absolutely terrible. I don't know what it is or why, it tasted like well water. Ended up getting a soda instead so no big deal but that might need looked into by management / city? I don't know. Super clean, fun atmosphere, and delicious overall! I'll also be back to order some take home meat one day soon! read more

Went here for dinner the other night. Food was pretty good, but I kinda have 2 issues with how this place operates which is why I won't return. First off, we made a reservation to go there for dinner not knowing how busy they would be on a Friday night. When we arrived, they were very slow, maybe 25% of the tables were used. The young hostess refused to sit us and allow us to start ordering drinks because our whole party wasn't there. I understand this policy and respect it, but I think it's BS to enforce it when 75% of your tables are empty. All they accomplished was a reduced bar tab. Secondly, beware that this establishment operates on well water, not city water. They do not advertise this. If you order just a water, you will get well water unless you pay extra for bottled water. First I think it's BS that they charge you for bottled water when their available water is un-drinkable. Secondly, they still cook using the well water. Many people may not be able to taste the difference but anybody who grew up on well water, will be able to taste it in the background. read more

Finally made it here- after about a year. So wanted to love it. Noon time ,Friday lunch. Tried for a French dip - they were out. Shared a cup of chili ,a brisket sandwich- both good. Came with slaw on sandwich & fries.service was great. Cuz it was my birthday 1/2 off the bill, plus free piece of carrot cake ! read more

Our family loves this place. Everything is great. Fried chicken with Mashed and mushroom gravy if my favorite

The food was real good but the service was sketchy. We ate at the bar. The bartender was overwhelmed with the crowd and the service was lacking. She was nice but in over her head. They need more help during the busy periods. The food is the star here. We definitely will return. read more

So I used to be a big fan of this place, great burgers, fresh meats etc.... But the last 3 times I've been there, it has not been a good experience. So a couple of weeks ago I ordered 3 well done burgers and 2 of the 3 were medium rare. Tonight they are out of the French dip sandwich, it's always something honestly. I understand that they make everything from scratch, but if you're going to do that at least make enough to last you through dinner. If I'm calling for a sandwich at 6pm there should be enough to at least last until 7. I did talk to the manager and she offered a free desert which I appreciate but it does not change the inconsistency of the restaurant in general. It shouldn't that hard to be a customer at a place, get it right next time. If you're out all the time obviously an adjustment is needed. read more

My girlfriend and I had dinner here a few weeks ago. Everything was great and our server Audrey did a great job answering all of our questions. I had the brisket and my girl had a filet. Everything was cooked to perfection. read more

Yes. Yes. Yes! Our first time here, and it did not disappoint. Our waiter, Conner, truly made our dinner experience one to remember. He had great recommendations and was extremely friendly and outgoing. The steaks are locally sourced and were cooked to perfection. The sides were delicious. Conner also brought us the Carrot Cake Roll for dessert! Mic drop. Please do yourself a favor, enjoy a night out at Coon Creek and most definitely ask for Conner. read more

Came in on a Friday night at 5 and the place was almost full...so you know it's good food. What I didn't like was the water. I just don't like water softener taste! Personal preference I guess. My NY strip was great. We had the fried pickles and I liked them but for $10 I don't think there were enough. The Mac and cheese was very good. We all thought it was so good! The brisket skins were really good. All in all would return! read more

Went there for the first time today. The service provided by Andrew the bartender, was excellent. The food was also excellent. The menu offered options unexpected for a bar. We also enjoyed the atmosphere! read more

I have been there twice now and on both occasions with a reservation. My party was seated promptly. The atmosphere is casual, and there is a bar. The food was excellent and of good value. The beef is outstanding! The service was also very good. The only downside would be that it gets very loud in there when it's even half full, so conversation is difficult. Could be the tin ceilings. Also they only have well water so ordering a drink of some kind is necessary. read more

Great food ! It was very good and they took the time to taste what it is they serve people . Services was great. The price for the food was average. The atmosphere could be a little bit more cozy but overall it worked. The place needs to turn the heat up. read more

My wife and I had dinner on 7/26, and our server, Audrey, was fantastic--very personable and spot on with our order. My wife had the salmon, and I had the bone-in ribeye. Both dishes were cooked perfectly and served hot. Excellent service and delicious food made for a great dining experience! read more

First time dining here and let me tell you, this place did not disappoint! My wife and I sat at the bar the and we had a great bartender who kept the the drinks full and the conversation flowing.

We also capped off our meal with a shared piece of homemade carrot cake. All in all this is a great place with farm to table fare at reasonable prices. read more

Wow food was excellent! The Nashville chicken sandwich was awesome. Audrey was our server and she was the best.

The best brisket sandwich around! They add a bit of slaw on it so you may want to ask for light slaw if you prefer! Ambiance is family restaurant - bar scene and they are going to be paving the lot soon. Sometimes they run out of specials but call ahead to make sure. read more

The service was excellent , Chelsea the Bartender who served me and my dad was very attentive and deserves major praise. my steak was cooked to perfection to a medium, and the steak was tender and season to perfection, my Captains and Coke was amazing, the Mac and cheese was alright could've used some bread crumb but that's personal Choice. The baked potato was delicious. My dad who got the meatloaf loved the gravy and even asked for more gravy, that's how good it is. This place is a great family steak house and I recommend this place for someone who likes great steak house and has a great bar. My mom had the ribeye and it looked tender and looked amazing. read more

Love, love, love this restaurant, the delicious food and the wonderful staff! We were celebrating my daughter's birthday and me finding out my cancer is in remission! Not only did they wish me well and wish my daughter a happy birthday, they gave me a congratulations card with all of the staff's signatures and my daughter a birthday card with all the staff's signatures! Then they brought us each out a piece of delicious cake! Fern (the owner) and Chelsea T. (our waitress) were incredible! I highly recommend Coon Creek and I can guarantee you we will definitely be back! Debbie W. read more

Well what can you say about the Local smoke house and bar! Absolutely awesome the smoked Brisket and Pork, Ribs, and sides are delicious and mouth watering! The waitstaff kind courteous prompt and quick with the refills! We have had some of our family gathering catered by Coon Creek and we have always been satisfied with the price and quality of the menu and the flavors from the moist succulent meats prepared! Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to have their parties or graduation parties catered by Coon Creek! Worth the prices! You won't be disappointed! read more

This was our 2nd visit. Food is tasty, but portions are skinny for the price. My bone in ribeye was $35 and thin, mashed potatoes were about 1/2 a cup and the vegetable of the day was no more than a table spoon amount. Disappointing. Exterior and Interior of the building is well appointed and attractive. Our 1st visit we sat at the bar and had 2 appetizers which were good and led us to the 2nd visit, but after the 2nd, we both thought we get more for our $ at Long Horn Steakhouse. read more

This is not a smoke house any more, it's suppose to be a farm to table restaurant So I order the tomahawk pork chop baked potato and Mac & cheese, the meal cost $27.00, the chop was very underwhelming and extremely small, the potato must have been in the warmer for a week the skin was so tough I couldn't cut it with a knife, the Mac and cheese was fair, when the waitress asked me how everything was I told her how I felt, I said where's the other half to my chop and she said that it was the last one and it didn't look as good as they normally do but they didn't do anything to make my experience worth going back, besides the place was slow and so was the service the bartender and waitress were to busy talking to each other and not worried about the 6 customers that were in there, this area needs a good restaurant and this isn't it, read more

Coon Creek - "Tomahawk Porkchop" - Smokehouse Near Me - Ray, Michigan

*** PLEASE READ If you have steak on the brain, and you've been to other steak houses (22 Steak house, Bar Verona, or Da Francesco's - all "somewhat" local to that area")... and that's what you're expecting... its not. If you're looking for "a value steak house" (like Lucky's in Imlay city), which this is... then you have arrived. Many reviews talk about the "value" of this place, that should be a red flag. FYI, its well water. Steak was tasty but is on the thinner side. Steak tips were cooked right but chewy (unexpected), and Pub burger was "ok". Service is top notch, Sage was our server and you cannot ask for better. She sold the place, the food, the family background, and why that place is what it is. Great job. Atmosphere is good and proper. Much improved. I will give it a try again one more time.... when going that direction. read more
