    Prime rib, green beans, mashed potatoes
    Madalyn V.

    Old Channel Inn is a true hidden gem on the shore of Lake Michigan. It is incredibly cozy in the winter months and it is just as cozy and relaxing during the summer months! I love that OCI is open year round! But be sure to note that they have reduced hours during the winter months. OCI has a great selection of cocktails, wines, appetizers and main plates. Everything always taste fresh and the prime rib is great! We really enjoyed their New Year's Eve meal last winter. The staff is friendly and the restaurant is always clean. I highly recommend OCI for a date night spot or a special occasion.

    Food was pretty good. Service was ok. Bar had a limited menus. Great for a off the path restaurant

    Ambience. Very cute. Lots of woodwork in an old home off side of the road.

    Food was only okay. Server was new and a bit slow. Pretty quiet for a Sunday night dinner in September.

    Excellent food and drinks. The perch was a hit but the walleye and Brussels sprouts were also very good!

    Littlebird - Bread Pudding French Toast (plain Jane)

    It's my birthday weekend and wanted to treat myself to a luxurious brunch. Of course I chose…read moreLittlebird for the best French omelettes in the area. I adore crab so ordering that was a no brainer. Their coffee is strong. It took a ton of cream to change the color... though it was delicious with free refills for $5. The omelette was heaven. All the flavors melded well and I appreciated the crisp acidic salad to cut the richness of the omelette. My only critique is wishing the crab salad topping was a bit more decadent. For $21 I was hoping for big lumps of crab rather than cool shredded mayo based salad. All in all, I love this place, I love the concept. It was quite busy and was thankful to snag a seat at the bar. The service was friendly and quick. Best hipster establishment I've patronized in a long time. Make a reservation if you have a group or pray there is a seat at the bar. Keep doing your thang Littlebird!!

    I absolutely love Little Bird's smashburger and I will die on this hill. It's probably one of the…read morebest burgers (if not the best) dine-in burger in GR and I will constantly come back for this over and over. My boyfriend and I stumbled in during happy hour and were happy to grab some cheap drinks, but the main event was the burger! We typically like sitting at the bar as well and chat with the bartender who was absolutely lovely! The dirty martini was okay but I will definitely order something else next time as the olives just didn't hit for me. It's a quaint and quiet spot - you can read that as intimate - since it's not loud or rowdy, so if you want a really sweet date spot, feel free to check this one out! Otherwise, you can just go and have a casual, delicious dinner. Parking is limited with the street parking and it being so close to Monroe Center but you shouldn't have a terrible time finding something, even if requires a parking ramp vs street parking. I'd just recommend a reservation if you are going on a weekend or don't want to wait/sit at the bar!
