Everything we had here was unique, delicious, and portion sizes were huge. The pastas are rich and fabulous. The shrimp ceviche with chips sounded weird but so delicious. The fish sandwich was yummy with some kind of magical fries. The Italian edges Benedict was SO GOOD. We were in town 3 days and came back 3 times. Do dinner for sure. read more

I came here with my boyfriend on my birthday weekend. The menu looked lovely and the ratings as well. I have to tell you...the ambiance was terrible. It's in a hotel lobby. People were lingering around in their sweats with their bags. None of the chairs matched...I mean some were worn red, browns and some were sunken in leather. We got a martini and an old fashioned..drinks were good. Then we ordered the crab dip and the calamari- crab dip was hot cream cheese, calamari was good. We left afterward because we wanted a cute little date spot. This wasn't it for us. Our server was lovely, and this is nothing on her! read more

Excellent bar service. If you are remotely considering the oysters, get a dozen. *Diahn supports this message and her recommendation is spot on. **review was written on the spot, at the bar, not by Diahn. read more

Went for Happy Hour and was Happy with the quality of the offerings and to 20% off of wines and beers. The tenderloin sliders, perch fingers and hot crab dip were tasty and reasonably priced. Selections of Wines by the glass and bottle beers was good. Service and food was great. I will return and try the charcuterie board. HH is 4-7 and the regular dinner menu looks good also. read more

Amazing food. Quite expensive. But worth it for the taste and presentation. ps. mediocre service 3 out of 5 times, and my apologies for having to say that. read more

Reflect Bistro - 6 oz. Center Cut Filet - Bars Near Me - Traverse City, Michigan

Our stay was at the Cambria Suites in Traverse City and this is the associated Restaurant within the hotel. We made dinner reservations while driving up 131 heading into town. The restaurant setting is slightly off the lobby with a few added tabled around the bar. Quaint little setting, tables with linens, nicely set. We had a few cocktails at the bar and then entered the Restaurant area to be seated. The menu was fairly self explanatory with a few questions upon ordering. My wife ordered the Lake Huron Yellow Perch and I ordered the Great Lakes 4...which included, Smoked whitefish cake, dusted perch, sautéed walleye and fried smelt with pilaf and asparagus. I also added the Lobster Bisque to my entree because it sounded inviting. The Lobster Bisque was outstanding!! It included a 4oz tail to the soup. The rest of the meal was exceptional as well. But it doesn't end here...... For the next couple mornings we had breakfast here as well. To summarize we had eggs with Michigan Maple Sausage, Build your own Omelet, Cambria Benedict with all the fix-ens. The service as well as every meal was outstanding. Nice restaurant and place to stay as well. read more

Reflect Bistro - Lobster Bisque w/4oz tail - Bars Near Me - Traverse City, Michigan

During my recent trip to traverse city, I just had to try this place out ( given its reviews on trip advisor). I went for the prime rib hash. I was super excited to give this a try! It didn't blow me like I had hoped. I may have set My expectations a little too high beforehand. I felt like the primw rib was heated up from the night before. Service was ok. There was another waitress serving another table who was incredibly charismatic. Maybe sitting at her section changes your experience. If I am ever back in traverse city, I would try this place for dinner just to be sure. read more

First of all this restaurant was fantastic the employees who work here are fine people, who are attentive and very kind. Our server was amazing and I enjoyed how they recommended foods to try. Our table started with the cheese charcuterie board, which was fantastic. You can tell the chefs took a lot of time crafting this masterpiece of a board, the board had a variety of different cheeses fruits, and a delicious pull-apart Asiago baguette. As for the 1st course, it was amazing and set the mood and showed me what reflect bistro had to offer. I had the reflect crispy chicken which is in my opinion the best-tasting chicken I've ever had. The chicken was seasoned perfectly and was cooked to absolute perfection, the sandwich also had melted provolone garlic mayo, and pickles which weren't only delicious but complimented the sandwich in every way. I got fries with my sandwich but I guess the staff forgot which was fine so I waited once I got them. The fries were delicious the potato was cooked to what I would say should be the gold standard to cook a potato. Overall the 2nd course was amazing and it left room for dessert. Lastly, Our table finished off with the chocolate lava cake. This cake was made beyond our expectations and sealed the deal at the end of the night. The cake was soft and fluffy and it practically melts in your mouth, the cake was complimented by whip cream strawberries which were arranged to look like a flower, and a creamy rich vanilla bean ice cream. The 3rd dish was truly amazing, and something I would recommend if you come to the reflect bistro. In conclusion, the reflect bistro is amazing. The staff and restaurant were but together and it was well mannered. The food was amazing and is what the culinary arts industry should be held to. I have no complaints about this restaurant as to why I give this a full 5.0 out of 5.0 stars. read more

It was weird to go into a hotel for brunch but it was so worth it! The picture doesn't do the food justice. I had the Italian Benedict and my friend had one of the hashes. The foccacia bread on the Benedict was divine. It soaked up the egg, was flavorful, and so delicate. We also got the pancakes on the waiter's recommendation. She said they were the best pancakes in town and - yeah. Hands down. Best pancakes I've ever had. 10/10 would recommend this place to anyone. Shout out to the Chef Deb running the whole operation and our awesome waiter Libby. The coffee was always full, she knew everything she was talking about, and just made it an awesome experience. read more

Reflect Bistro - Italian Benedict and Andouille Sausage Hash - Bars Near Me - Traverse City, Michigan

We don't normally do restaurants in hotels. But we decided to try it this time. We were not disappointed. We tried it first for happy hour. So we did just a few appetizers. The nachos platter was huge and we were filled up with their portions. We ate there the second night and had perch. Probably the best tartar sauce I have ever have. With mini julienned pickles that were subtle but perfect. The service was fantastic. Not cheap but they put the cost to creating tasty excellent dishes and great service. read more

We were pleasantly surprised at the quality and creativity the chef puts into the menu here. We ate breakfast here both mornings we were at The Cambria. We had their corned beef hash as a shareable and also had The Farm omelette, vegi hash, and several of the Benedict's. Their Bloody Mary was really good though not the best I e ever had. Mimosas were good too. The service was excellent both days. Very attentive and personable. They were able to make recommendation and were very knowledgeable of the menu. Eat here! read more

We are staying at the Cambria and came down to the restaurant for breakfast. Service was outstanding. Our server was Libby. The food was delicious! Our chef was Chef Deb. We had omelettes. Mine was an egg white with large pieces of ham, onion and asparagus. We had two other omelettes with large pieces of sausage and other vegetables. Yogurt parfait was good and had a plentiful amount of strawberries and blueberries. read more

Delicious food and great service! Tenderloin sliders were a 10 and the wedge salad was top flight. Service was great and considering Traverse City in the summer where service is understandingly challenging this was excellent. Nice local wine list as well. read more

Meal was wonderful and service impeccable! We would not hesitate to go back again next time e we are in Traverse city!

My favorite spot to stop for dinner and especially brunch! This year, Lindsey the manager went above and beyond our first time there for my pre- birthday dinner!! This morning, two days later, My fiancé got the seafood omelette that was to die for as well as my dish the Italian Benedict was so delicious! Thank you for the amazing birthday meals that were second to none! P.S. don't forget your bloody Mary it is amazing! read more

This was a very pleasant surprise. I was skeptical at first despite the top TripAdvisor ratings and the unassuming location in the front lobby of the Cambria hotel, but the hype was deserved. High quality of food, large menu, and attentive service. Definitely worth a try! read more

Our group of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. The service (Kayla) was absolutely fantastic and the food was high-quality (Chef Deb) with fair prices. Even if we weren't staying at the Cambria, we'd definitely make the trip back for a wonderful breakfast. read more

We did not get to eat here as we wanted. We came in Friday night, and Sarah was the host. It was my husband, our 13 month old infant, and myself. As we walked in we asked for a table. Sarah rudely looked at us and saw baby food in my hand. She rolled her eyes, walked to the back and asked her manager if it was ok for us to bring baby food inside/ if she can seat us?! I don't know if she told her manager it was for an infant but the manager said no outside food. That they have food there that we have to buy for our infant. First time we have ever heard this! After this gets confirmed, we put the baby food away and Sarah finally seats us. We go to put our food order in as we sit down. We looked at the menu on our way there. Sarah said our server Kyle will be right with us and that she would not take our order. Which is fine, hostess' don't take orders. As we were waiting on Kyle, who never came,our infant started crying and Kyle wasn't present with more food to give our baby to calm him down- I broke out our baby food. Sarah runs over and flips out on us for getting our BABY FOOD out to chill out of infant! Then says she will grab us a fruit cup for us to pay for..... the reason why I'm bringing this up is because she wouldn't take our app order but then flips out on us and says she can ring us up for this other food. She was very rude and not professional. We got up and left. We are not going to deal with this kind of energy. We are on a trip for our anniversary and this is not what we were expecting. I've never heard or seen a restaurant with this kind of mentality if the restaurant agrees with her behavior. Or a restaurant asking to parents to pour out an infants milk bottle, because they serve milk. It's the same thing. I have been in the restaurant industry for over 10 years, I've been in fine dining for 4. I understand the "no outside food allowed" rule and agree with them for sales but this is a baby we are speaking for. 13 months old.... No harm on Kyle, whomever he is. read more

I've wanted to try this restaurant, which is in the lobby of the Cambria Suites, for a long time do to it's #1 rank on TripAdvisor. Now that I have, I can honestly say I don't get it. The experience was perfectly fine, and if I were staying at the hotel, I'd be happy it was there. But with so many fantastic restaurants in the area, I will not likely return. The service was good, but our server smelled very strongly of cigarettes. The food was delicious, but nothing special. The restaurant itself is tucked in a corner of the hotel lobby and we were sat next to the windows with a lovely view of the parking lot. Bottom line? If you're in the area and can't get in anywhere else, it's a valid choice. read more

We've been a couple of times and it has not disappointed. The Crispy Chicken Sandwich is very tasty enough for 2 or a take home box. The Seafood Pot Pie was to die for. Service has been friendly and efficient. Will definitely go back. read more

#1 on trip advisory for many years in a row. Small and quant restaurant in a lovely hotel with excellent service. I didn't have high expectations but wow after I had dinner there I was amazed. Had the steak with the blueberry marmalade, shrimp, calamari (this is a twist on calamari you have never seen) had the beat salad which was super refreshing, I personally wasn't a fan of the dressing so maybe ask for it on the side. Cherry bread pudding was THE BEST DESSERT I have had in a very long time. The CARROT CAKE oh my goodness. Please stop by and try this amazing gem. read more

The breakfast food was plentiful and delicious. We had the Cambria omelet , French toast, bacon and the cinnamon roll. The omelet was light yet filling. I'd never had pico on an omelet. Hubby could not eat all of the French toast and bacon. The crem'e that was included with the FT and cinnamon roll added an additional richness. We were very satisfied with our meal. I would definitely eat at Reflect again. I gave it 4 stars because of the cinnamon roll. I thought it was rather pricey for the size of the cinnamon roll. It did come with delicious seasoned potatoes, but I didn't order potatoes, I ordered a cinnamon roll. read more

Great place for breakfast. One of them few in TC that will book reservations. Inside the Cambria hotel. White tablecloths - had fresh flowers at each table. I had salmon and lox which was excellent! Kristine gave us excellent friendly service! read more

We've lived in Traverse City for 5 years now and have tried several brunch spots all over the city. This morning we decided to give Reflect Bistro a try, and it did not disappoint. Our toddler, who is in a picky eating stage right now, ate almost every morsel on his plate. He loved the French toast and bacon. For $5, this kids breakfast was huge and tasty. My eggs Benedict was out of this world. I love a good bene and try different ones everywhere I go. I had never had it on focaccia before, but I am now in love with this version and will return to have it as often as possible. My husband loved his farm omelette with steak tips and roasted potatoes. He normally picks at food and doesn't finish meals, but he was so enamored with it, he just kept eating. As for the atmosphere, it was lovely. We liked the intimate feel, the nice linens, the excellent service, and the sunny room with big windows! We can't wait to tell our friends and family about this lovely brunch experience. We live just a few miles away, so we will be back asap! read more

The Italian Benedict was incredible. Very flavorful. Benedict is my go to breakfast food when I'm on the road and this did not disappoint. They serve breakfast on Sundays till 2 pm...Bonus. The wait staff was very friendly and Libby did not let my coffee go below a half full. This restaurant is attached to the Cambria Hotel, but would definitely come here to eat without staying at the hotel. 5 star read more

We chose this restaurant based on the reviews. As it happens, this time the reviews got it wrong. While our service was fine, the food itself was quite underwhelming. I'm not sure if the kitchen had an off night in this case, but many of the ingredients were not cooked properly. We both ended up eating less than half of our meals, and declined the offer to take the leftovers with us. I'm hoping our experience was an outlier, but in our case, I cannot recommend dining here. read more

This restaurant is loud yet yet the food was amazing. The service was slower then a snail loading a blade of grass. So if you're deaf and have all the time in the world enjoy your meal. A warning if you're staying due to United Airlines putting you up, don't let the waiter fool you. Telling you it's better to put the dinner on the room after giving him your credit card for payment is a fatal mistake! The hotel staff is run by a incompetency of young and rude baboons that wake you in the middle of the night to correct his mistake! So sad to see such incompetence surrounding a good try at fine food. Dining is a complete experience. Somehow their hotel and restaurant management team must have missed that class! Do your self a favor. Find a better dining experience for your well earned money! read more

They refused to seat our party because we had kids. We even said we were willing to split up and we're told no.

Reflect Bistro - Seafood Pot Pie - Bars Near Me - Traverse City, Michigan

We were staying at the hotel and ended up having both breakfast and dinner at Reflect. For breakfast we shared the mushroom omelette with potatoes and we'd give that 2 stars -- it was bland, heavy, and ordinary. A couple days later, for dinner, we split the fish duo and the morel mushroom soup. The soup was not good, especially for the money -- again, bland and just not well seasoned -- 2 stars. The fish duo, though, was very good, 4 stars if judged on its own. So overall, 3 stars, but with great variability. Order carefully! read more

Dinner tonight was so wonderfu! Loved our time together having fresh brewed coffee that our professional server refilled over and over with an attentive eye. Next we ordered the Wedge Salad and a Beef fillet medium rare. The artistry of presentation left me overjoyed, speechless! The salads colorful display and the blend of flavors, the perfection of the beef, each bite was just right. We have dined here breakfast, lunch, and dinner many times over the years and we have never been disappointed. The menu selections are beyond all expectations, reflecting the changing of the season with such quality and value. Thank you for such a wonderful dining experience. read more
