Food was disappointing...ordered southwest eggrolls that were just bad. Rice was main ingredient and I don't think it even belongs in the dish at all. Found one tiny piece of chicken in one whole eggroll. Bree appetizer was tasty but so rich that it should have been served with plain toast...the buttered bread was overkill. My friend expected a sliced chicken breast in the pasta dish he ordered but instead it had little bits of boiled? Chicken...same small pieces as the southwest eggroll. My Tropical Sangria was Amazing though! For the prices, this place could really do better with the food!

My dear friend is visiting from Maine and in the summer The Deck is always a must…read more We came in on Friday, 8/7/26 around 12:30. We sat at one of the bars upstairs on the deck and Ashely S took such good care of us! Of course we had to have frozen drinks in the color changing cups #freemerch. She had a Pina Colada upgraded with Barcadi Silver and I had a Frozé, we were both very happy with our choices! To eat we split the brisket nachos and they were fantastic, lots of cheese and meat and the tomatoes were a great bit of acidity to balance out the richness. I was so hungry I just started shoveling food in my face without taking a pic. It was the first time in a long time we've been waited on at The Deck and while the togo food to eat at Below Deck is good - having it come out hot is just different than hoofing it down to the sand. Still good - just better being waited on.

Finally made it to this spot and it was all the vibe I was hoping for...what a great spot. It was…read morethe first time here and we came on a busy band night...it was hard to get our bearings at first with all of the people. Waiting in line on the sand level to get drinks for over 30 minutes. There were 3 lines but of course we chose the one that took the longest. After drinks we decided to head up a level to get a view of the band. The first thing we noticed was another bar upstairs without a line at all definitely kicked ourselves for not looking around more. Lots of signs all pointing towards finding the hostess for seating instead of sitting yourself. So back to the hostess stand to be told either put your name in for a table or you can sit in any red chair that is available. Food is takeout only but you can order at the window or online for pickup. We had the chips and cheese dip and also the chicken fingers. The hot honey wasn't great, but the ranch was good and runny. The cheese dip was okay, nothing great. Drinks are what you would expect for a beach feel...not strong by any means. I'd definitely save the extra money for the fancy drink and get a canned beverage for the best reliable alcohol content. I know I kinda gave this place the business but a still good overall rating. The vibe, sand, band and overall feeling is what makes this place great! It supersedes the things that could be better. The place is a vibe and vibes bring people together. I'd still go back and knowing what I know now, just do it better.

She was funny and friendly - even while running her bunsies for the rest of the bar. The restaurant was busy and we were surprised to find two seats at the bar. It was moderately loud, but not unbearable. We started with a cosmo and a raspberry lemonade martini - that was so good I had to order one of my own after I finished my cosmo! I had the Santa Fe Chicken Salad in a wrap. For only a dollar more you can get any salad as a wrap and it comes with chips! It was a great wrap and I was really happy with it. My Mr had the Perch dinner with fries and Cole slaw - one of his favs from Hobo's. He was happy with it as always. We will of course come back, this is a North Muskegon staple and we are big fans.

It's inside of the culinary institute and is more or less a classroom experience but I wouldn't let that discourage you as the students do an incredible job. I'm always impressed with the service, the generous portions, and the quality of the food. It's a really great way to have some finer dining at a reasonable price. Speaking of the food the menu changes fairly regularly based on the term, so you'll want to check the latest on the site before you go. It's all over the place, but always good. My favorite thing to order here is the coffee! They bring a full French Press, a few biscotti, and some truffles out as part of it -- all for $3! Give it a try!

I stole the above quote from the website but I thought it described the restaurant perfectly! We went as a party of four for lunch. We all tried different plates and enjoyed them immensely. I had the spring chicken salad with a strawberry vinagrette, my husband had the steak which was prepared exactly as requested (medium rare), we also ordered the eggplant canneloni and a wedge salad. We also tried the ahi tuna appetizer and a flight of wines. We didn't order dessert but tried the French press coffee sampler. It all came to about $50'ish and tipping is optional since the place is run by students. If in Muskegon, I highly recommend dining at Courses.
