Food is great and made to order ! We split the turkey avocado club on sourdough which was very…read morefresh we also split the buffalo ranch melt . It was warm, delicious, very tasty , a bit spicy and served on a really good soft bun with crispy edges. Perfectly cooked the sandwiches are served with orange slices , which is a nice break from chips or fries ! They have numerous coffe and matcha drinks hotv& cold. I tried the cold match blackberry lemonade and it was good and my hubby had the matcha raspberry latte and he really liked his. You know it's a great place when you unexpectedly run into the bride eating there the morning after her wedding!!! The only thing keeping me from giving this restaurant 5 stars ( because the food quality IS there !) is the bathroom situation. There's a very tiny sing men's and women's with a sink to wash hands inbetween. I didn't mind the " closet bathroom stall - I minded the dirty floor and the fact that when I went to wash my hands in the shared sink outside the stall in between the bathrooms , barely any soap dispenses! I went under 4 x just to get enough soap to get the buffalo sauce off of my hands. This is concerning because it makes you wonder if the cooks are bothering to try to get any soap on their hands ?! . Roast and Toast : *Clean the bathroom floors and get a new soap dispenser and I bet you'll get the stars and reviews your food deserves !

I hate to give a bad review but I also hate the idea of NOT giving one at all because the service…read morewasn't up to par and I don't wanna complain. However... Because the place was populated (but not crowded) and my order was simple (a matcha and cranberry chicken salad) Filling my order was a lay-up. The drink came in a timely fashion but my sandwich was nowhere to be found. Add to that I was sitting in the very visible window seat, by myself...a fact made more obvious by the fact that no one was near me and I'm a black dude in a very white restaurant (basically making me even more obvious). Now to be clear: I DO NOT think this was racially motivated, I DO think , however, it was due to inattentive staff. Personally I'm also not a fan of having to go get my food when they call my name, ESPECIALLY if the drink and the food come out at different times. Too much up and down for me. Cute place but I was disappointed...which bums me out because I really WANTED to like this place. This will probably be my only time here (as I am just passing through) and, sadly, this was the impression I was left with.

Staff was attentive and pleasant, and guests were engaged in animated, quiet conversation at their tables. The breakfast sandwiches are phenomenal--see photos for their names and to make your mouth water. I forgot to take a photo of the Dutch baby pancake. Mine was good and the fruit fresh, but if I had a do-over, I'd order a sandwich with potatoes instead because those are some of the best breakfast potatoes I've ever had--perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. My daughter's Dutch baby was sitting in a pool of grease and should have been sent back, but she didn't say anything because she thought it was normal, and by then it was too late. That was the only bummer. It is very small inside, but miraculously we did not have a wait for seven people. You can just pop in for a baked good from their display case or order carryout if you don't have time to sit for breakfast. I encourage you to check Small Batch out!

Breakfast potatoes were AMAZING. downsides: Coke was $4. Syrup was not real maple syrup but the artificial kind, you'd expect real maple syrup at a fancy place like this, strawberries in the Dutch baby still had leaves on them. There are some needless rules that one might consider bad customer service (ex. Heard another table ask if they could get the eggs on the side of their dish instead of on top, server stated "she won't deconstruct it you'll have to remove the eggs yourself")

Had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. Got seated and waited on pretty quickly. My feeling is if the coffee is good that means someone at the place cares, a good sign. And it was good! I got buttermilk pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage links and hash browns. Loved the sausage (from Plath meats) and eggs were definitely cooked with butter. Yummy! My standard for great pancakes are Cracker Barrel and these were just as good. Only slightly disappointed with hash browns as they seemed from a bag but they were cooked well. My wife had the vegetable skillet which was a layer of hash browns with tomato, green pepper, spinach, onions and then eggs over that which was covered with sausage gravy. All very good. Even the English muffin she got seemed fresh made! Good service and fair prices too. Only knock I could give was food took a bit to come out but I blame that on the holiday weekend crowd.

Staff were all exceptionally friendly (Luke took care of me). I started with the shrimp tostadas as an app. Amazingly, lite, and fresh. It made me feel like I was eating seaside in the Baja of Mexico. Order two, you'll eat them! I was intrigued about the chop and toss salad with smoked blue cheese. That wasn't the show stealer in the salad it was these blanched heirloom, tomatoes, done in olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and herbs. The bacon adds to the smokiness, the acidity from the red onion cuts through and then the avocado, adds an extra layer of creaminess. If this salad were an Olympic sport. It would be a gold medalist! Do not leave here unless you order the salad! I saw the two words I have been looking for all vacation... sea scallops? Gnocchi Parmesan delicious perfection! Fresh herbs and interestingly enough a red sauce which was different but worked well the fresh veggies. Only drawback of the dish was there were only three scallops. They were however cooked perfectly! Presentation on food was what I would expect from a true culinary artist! Plates were wiped and not only tasted great but looked great! Get here early. This place gets packed and rockin. RSVP through open table. Doors open at 4. This is a must do experience in Petoskey! It's not cheap but it is a killer experience of class, food art, flavors, and world class service!

Our food arrived quickly and was pretty standard diner food, maybe slightly below average. The bacon was very tough unfortunately, but the rest was fine. My colleague and I ordered the same thing but he was given sausage links and I was given patties. The food runner said they ran out of links so I was given patties. The menu says you get the choice, but we weren't asked. The dining room had a strong smell of cleaning supplies which is a double edged sword. It seemed clean but we both noticed the smell instantly. Overall, it did the job and we left full. The prices were reasonable, maybe slightly above other diners with average food at best.

To start, the atmosphere is beautiful, with the restaurant right on the harbor of Little Traverse Bay. The ambiance inside was welcoming, with the bar being connected to the outside seating.

We had the ahi tuna tacos, sticky ribs, crispy shrimp bao buns, and buffalo chicken lollipops. There were so many mouth-watering shareable options that we had to just get a bunch of those. Loved every bite! The drinks were also phenomenal. I tried the moon rabbit, which ended up being one of my favorite drinks I've ever had. Gin, ginger, lime, cucumber, and sesame oil - unbelievably refreshing combination, give it a try. Overall this place was phenomenal and it will now be a must have on future trips up north!

It sits right on the water, making it the perfect spot for a nice meal with a gorgeous view. I'll be honest--the food used to be pretty mediocre in my opinion, but I'm not sure what changed because they have seriously stepped up their game! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We had the shrimp bao buns, burrata, lobster pappardelle, and the flank steak with grits, and every single dish was a 10/10. The flavors are unique, interesting, and so well done. The portions are also surprisingly generous. It's definitely on the pricier side, but you're getting high-quality food AND a substantial amount of it, so it feels well worth it. The restaurant is beautiful and clean, and the service is always excellent. If you're in the Bay Harbor area, I'd definitely recommend giving Nomad a try--you won't be disappointed!
