When I asked for a menu, the bartender told me "We just have regular bar food..." and rattled through some items like wings, onion rings, cheeseburgers, fried cauliflower and whatnot. I went with the burger and it was good. Large, tender, good beef flavor. Cooked well past medium, as I'd ordered it, but the meat didn't suffer from a little too long on the grill. I'd come on karaoke night, and that was just getting rolling when I left shortly before 8. Quite a few people seemed to be arriving for that, and if I hadn't had a bit of a drive ahead of me I might well have stayed.

I was with my real estate agent and her husband this time I got back. I was by myself and I ordered the same thing. I got 3 pieces of fish that were very greasy and some onion rings. I was the same way. No bag, ketchup is handed to me. I was just a little bit disciplined but the owner came out of helping when I spilled my drink. So that made it a lot better.

If you like your food to have a little kick, it's a can't miss meal! Often times the service can be a little laid back, and this is not a fast food joint.

We've driven past this joint for years, and to be quite honest it's been the joke or "running gag"…read moreof our friend group due to the concept of it being a dive bar/night club in the middle of nowhere. The day came when we finally gave this place a shot, and let me tell you what... The joke was on us... The initial dining experience was typical of a local dive bar, however it wasn't until our food arrived that my Hanes X-temp, low cut ankle socks were blown right off. It was like when you first discover the Nickelback and Creed songs that never got radio play... You think to yourself "Holy cow how is everyone hating on these bands?" That was the exact feeling I got at Coco Cabana's in West Branch Michigan. "Maybe we've always poked fun at this joint because deep down we knew we would end up liking it..." Anyway, I got the All American club grinder which was top notch. The 6-1/2" sandwich was a generous portion. Honestly I could've done without the fries, but I'm glad I got them because they were fried to perfection. The house made bread was excellent. I read a review some clown left about the grinder having "too much bread." Hey buddy if you're reading this, go eat an Uncrustable. It's a friggen submarine sandwich, it comes on a loaf of bread... That's like ordering tomato soup and complaining about it tasting like tomatoes. Overall, I was very pleased with our dining experience and will definitely be returning soon.
