My mother-in-law had a breakfast sandwich, my husband a breakfast combo, and my son and I each had omelets. Everything was cooked to perfection despite the place being very busy, and it tasted great. The sausage gravy on my son's food especially brought positive commentary from everyone that tried it. I love that breakfast is served all day, they have raisin bread, and they serve multiple flavors of homemade jam. The food was terrific, and the young lady waiting tables all on her own did so with a kind and humorous demeanor. She did not blink an eye when my husband retrieved the coffee pot, refilled his mug, and proceeded to circulate the room, filling others'. Bottom line: If you are in the area, this is the place to seek breakfast,

Highly recommend!

I've been to Dilbert's three times while vacationing in northern Michigan and this greasy spoon…read morediner has landed just right in the taste department each time. I can only speak to the Meat Lover's Skillet (sans mushrooms) as it's the best skillet I've had and the only item I'll order here for that same reason. The side of sourdough toast is well worth the carbs, too. I note this because not all restaurant toast is created equal. The most recent time I went this past weekend, our party of three easily found an open table. Our waitress was with us quickly to take orders and the food shipped out shortly afterward. The Dilbert's environment is no frills so don't expect much from its minimalist (and sometimes perplexing) wall art. On the diner's far back side, a wall concealing the kitchen is a simple (albeit huge) chalkboard displaying specials of the day. Thank you, Dilbert, whoever you are or were!

Not much has changed, but it is very homey & a very nostalgic place.

We didn't end up getting an outdoor table, but we were pleasantly surprised when they seated us almost immediately. Our server was fantastic and very attentive throughout the meal. We had read a few reviews mentioning slow service, but that definitely wasn't our experience. We were 100% satisfied with the service we received. The food was delicious, and there were a lot of great options on the menu. Prices were what you'd expect for this type of restaurant, and we thought everything was well worth it. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and the whole place had a great vibe. We were really impressed with Oaky's Tavern and would definitely recommend it to anyone in the Interlochen area.

They are fully committed to the woodsy, outdoor, rustic vibe while still feeling upscale. Our server was excellent and brought refills consistently and without being asked. We ordered fried mushrooms and spinach and artichoke dip for apps. The fried mushrooms and ranch were AMAZING and also pretty massive. The dip was verryyy cheese forward and was a little goopey, not my fav. The flavor was good, but I wanted it to be creamier and more balanced. It was the only thing we got that wasn't a hit, but not enough to change this from 5-stars! I ordered the Prime Rib with veg and a baked potato. IT WAS AMAZING. My family ordered two pizzas to split; bbq chicken and margarita. The pizzas were delicious and had a perfect crust.

We ordered the Hungry Mans Breakfast (3 eggs, bacon sausage, hash browns and toast) and House Made Hash & Eggs (2 eggs, corned beef has and toast) (same as the past 2 years) - you just don't mess with perfection. We ordered eggs overeasy. They brought us a treat of a small cup of homemade strawberry jam for our thick cut fresh sourdough toast - this was a new addition this year (the jam) and we enjoyed it. Nothing is particularly greasy but everything is cooked to perfection. This is one of those places that just makes the quintessential breakfast (or breakfast for lunch). You will leave feel satisfied and happy. July 2023 Amazing find! Last year we stopped to get brunch as we were starving and there aren't many choices along this stretch of road. We would come here on a regular basis if we could. There are a lot of locals but they are equally as nice to out of towners. So this year on our drive, we remembered their food and made a point to stop for a late breakfast. In particular, we recalled their delicious corn beef hash and ordered it again! We ordered the Hungry Mans Breakfast (3 eggs, bacon sausage, hash browns and toast) and House Made Hash & Eggs (2 eggs, corned beef has and toast) (same as last year). We ordered eggs overeasy.
