Lots of food runners helped keep things moving. This is a really beautiful space as well. Hubby had the French dip and I went with a side salad and French onion soup. The French dip was really tasty (not dried out steakums like some places do), and the au jus was on point (not too salty). My salad was filled with super fresh ingredients and the chunky blue cheese dressing was really flavorful and filled with chunks of real blue cheese. I wouldn't be surprised to find out they make it in house. Everyone at the table was happy with their meal. All in all, we would definitely return when in the area again.

The fajitas are tasty, the chicken sliders go over well with my wife. I also like their ribs. But whatever your taste, you can find something to fit the bill here. Servers are attentive, and helpful. The food is not expensive, so all in all, it's a fine place.

I was inadvertently locked out of my phone and had no way to arrange a ride home. The manager, Greg, went completely out of his way and, out of pure kindness, requested an Uber for me so I could get home safely. I honestly can't say enough about the kindness I experienced here. What a fantastic establishment, and Greg is an absolute gem of a human being. You can feel good about giving this place your patronage. They don't just care about providing great food and service--they genuinely care about the well-being of the people who walk through their doors. Absolutely exceptional!

I went into the restroom and when I came out there was someone washing their hands at the sink. I opened the door and the door hit her . And I was washing my hands and she barely got by she had to excuse herself. It's a little too tight it almost feels like a bathroom at home instead of a business restroom . Just giving feedback. But overral amazing place and I will be back for a nice rooftop dinner .

We made reservations to come have dinner after walking around downtown. We were told before we were…read moreseated that we had to be gone in an hour because they had another group coming even with a reservation. Our food ended up taking forever to come out so we were rushed to hurry up and eat and leave when it came out. For appetizers we got the chips and dip and salads. The dip had a long piece of hair in it and we immediately sent it back and the waiter looked at us like we were crazy for not wanting it. The salads were pretty good - big portion with lots of fresh toppings and dressing. For entrees we got the buffalo chicken sandwiches and the grilled chicken plate. My mom asked for no buffalo and it came with buffalo on it so she didn't love it. Mine on the other hand was pretty average. It was a large portion and had a good amount of toppings on it that altogether was very flavorful. I did ask for ranch on the side when i ordered and it took awhile for it to come out. The chicken plate was just about the only good dish we had. It came with a good spread of well prepared food and was a healthy option on the menu. The worst part of this experience was when we asked for bags for left overs the waiter told us to go get it ourselves so we had to awkwardly go behind the bar to grab it. Overall the service was terrible- everyone was rude. The food was slightly above average but with the hair in it and messing up our orders i would not recommend. Even though this is in prime location there are so many better options in the area. I could see this place having potential for coming for drinks with all the tvs or on the rooftop in the summer but thats about it.

Park 600 itself is a lovely spot, while it doesn't match the level of the hotel, still lovely. The menu caters to breakfast, lunch and dinner, so you can eat at any time throughout the day and they have a pretty decent cocktail program that adapts to the season/trends that keep the menu fresh. They of course can make many of your favorite drinks and they have an ok wine selection also. The food has always been very good here. I have never had a bad experience and have always left very content. The meals are rich, full of flavor and very well done. I think the price points on the menu are a little over the top, but for a hotel restaurant, probably on par.

I made an impromptu stop when I realized the restaurant that I planned to visit on Main Street was…read moreclosed. The location at Second and Main Street with open air dining on this beautiful June day in Michigan was very inviting. I took a seat in the dining room and was quickly greeted by a friendly server (Gabbi). I ordered the Salmon Sandwich which included a Teriyaki glaze and Asian slaw with a side of sweet potato fries and a Labatt pilsner draft which was served quickly in a cold pint glass which was enjoyable on a warm afternoon. The sandwich is a little sticky to eat, so maybe not on a date night unless you really want to be stuck with the person you're accompanied by, but it was very tasty and I would order again. Another lady was kind enough to drop off a special sauce to complement the sweet potato fries that was delicious. It seemed was a combination of yogurt, cream cheese and cinnamon possibly. The restaurant was about 30% full on this day in the early afternoon which made for an enjoyable quiet stop. It really reminded me of being Up North in Michigan on this day as this experience included several families enjoying time together on a beautiful Michigan afternoon in a nice downtown.
