    Side house salad with raspberry vinaigrette
    Joe B.

    My wife and I went for lunch today, it was our first visit here. Josh our host seated us at a table with a nice view of the water. Our server was Carlos, he did a great job of taking care of our order and serving us. I had a cup of their famous house made mushroom soup. It was very good and deserving of its popularity. I ordered the Orechiette which was very good also. My wife had the Prime Rib Dip which she shared with me. The beef was lean and very tender and the au jus was full of flavor. We loved the fact that they where open at 11:30 for lunch service with the full menu. We will be back to try some more of their dishes.

    Had lunch at Martells today. The food was good, though I felt it was missing a little something. The staff were professional but came across a bit stiff and unsure. What really stood out was the natural scenery, absolutely beautiful with the water features adding a perfect touch.

    Fireplace for cozy warm dinners with Lake view for Ambiance. And a nice patio in the Summer time dining. Good place for special occasions.

    Crispy Brussels Sprouts Appetizer

    Had THE BEST dinner we have had in Kalamazoo maybe even in Michigan! The service was amazing..never had to ask for a refill or anything actually! Our waitress was so sweet and was training another lovely server. We sat right in front of the fireplace and looked out on the water which was so beautiful! It was cozy and quaint! We started with the crispy Brussels sprouts as an appetizer and they were perfect! I think my husband wanted to lick the plate. I had the filet which was cooked perfectly and melted in my mouth! My husband had the shrimp pasta which was just mouth watering. This is our new favorite spot..Izzie the Chef came out and she was just so kind and beautiful! We couldn't rave about this hidden gem in Kalamazoo..so happy we found our perfect date night spot! LOVE Martell's!!! (PS this was our first time here! We can't wait to go back!)

    I have a double date coming up and was wondering is this place a good choice?

    I have never eaten in there. Just ordered take out. The food is really good. I recommend calling ahead for reservations. The outside patio area looks real nice. But the inside has that musty smell. Seems like an old building but nice inside. Just… Read more

    600 is such a cute place for a lovely meal!…read more We have been multiple times but stopped in on a recent sunny afternoon for some lunch. 600 is so light and airy, we really love the atmosphere!! We had a really great waitress, I wish I would have gotten her name! She was doing the job of hostess and waitress to multiple tables, and doing it all very well! We ordered a chicken sandwich and a salad for our lunch entrees! Both were very good and presented very well! While the food is good and quality feels high - the price is also on the high side. For a sandwich and a salad, waters to drink, we spent over $50 for our lunch! Just something to be aware of! While we had time - the experience was not fast. Something to be aware of if needing a quick lunch. The restaurant was not overly busy but the wait was a little long to receive our order. I ordered a salmon salad - the menu nor the website specify if the salmon is wild caught or farmed. I would really love to know this information - the price would be much better reflected if it were indeed wild caught. :)

The service was on the slower side and could have used more attention to detail--coffee refills were missed, and we didn't have spoons to stir our coffee. That said, our server was kind and had a gentle, pleasant demeanor. The food overall was very good. Only one person in our group was disappointed--the chicken and waffles were described as dry, with the chicken coating lacking flavor. Everyone else enjoyed their meals, and the desserts were a standout; they were excellent and loved by all. One area that could use improvement is the upstairs bathroom. While it was well stocked with supplies, it needed cleaning. Clear signage for the upstairs restroom and perhaps a nice piece of artwork would also be welcome touches. Overall, a nice brunch experience with great desserts and room for a few improvements.

    Restaurant Name: The Old goat tavern…read more Dish: pickle chips, BELT, The forty eighty Date Visited:3/15/26 First Impressions: The atmosphere is wonderful it has pick your seat seating a very lovely bar where you can see them make your food multiple TVs to watch the games and a front and back entrance. It's a pretty peaceful college bar next to a really nice coffee shop. Presentation - 10/10 Taste & Flavor - 10/10 When getting food here you can get a good variety of spicy and savory especially when it comes to their burgers their drinks are made with much care. Nothing is too overpowering Portion Size - 10/10 I have a very small stomach so things tend to fill me up regardless however my husband is an endless pit and the burger seemed to fill him up for the time being. Value for your money? I would say you get a good value and a full meal for the price you're going to pay You get good service especially on a Sunday when there's only a very few people in there and you're just trying to relax. ‍ Service - 10/10 The service in overall 10 out of 10 The bartender was extremely friendly kept a decent conversation going & greeted us when we entered, most of the staff is college students so you know they're working hard when it comes to both school and being servers. Overall Rating: 10/10 Final Verdict: The Old goat tavern is by far place I would return to especially for a quick bite and something that's going to kill me up for a cheap price. It's good for a night out on the town or just drinks with friends they have a wide variety of drinks and drafts and a good burger. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you haven't already they live up to the hype.

    Best burger I had in a while. Reason is that size is big, they don't skim on ingredients. Burger is…read morenot supposed to be tiny especially from a tavern. My burger has layers of cheese and meat and sauce. Mouth full of goodness. Also my "back forty" burger is only $13. Pretty good deal in 2024. Sides are extra though Sides are not so much, just taste like they are from the freezer and straight into the fryer. Burger is the main character anyway. Drinks are weak, you can probably down a couple mix drinks and still blow below limit. With that being said, this is still a better place to eat and watch a game than BWW.
