We got there at 8:15 & were told our table was being cleared and it would be a few minutes. We decided to sit at the bar and have a drink, which was a lovely setting. The bartenders were attentive, drinks were delish! By 8:45, we wondered if we had been forgotten. By 8:55, the host stopped to tell us our table was still getting prepared. At 9:10, we finally had a table! They did bring us complimentary prosecco since our table wait was 40 minutes past the reservation time. Our server, Levi, was phenomenal. He gave great recommendations and walked us through the menu & style wonderfully. Our food was also delicious. Nothing disappointed on the menu! All in all, the food was spectacular, the space is gorgeous, and service once seated was amazing. The only star taken away was for the issue of timeliness, which could easily be due to the rush of a Friday night. We hope to return in the future!

Upon entry we were greeted by friendly staff and given a menu to review while we waited for our table. After being seated we were able to order drinks and food quickly! Everything came out in a timely manner. We also got a free dessert for our anniversary which was such a wonderful touch! The dining space is a little small which made it difficult to converse at some points but this was truly the only downside. We can't wait to return to this spot for another delicious dinner! Food: -Calamari: beautifully seasoned and breaded. Great portion size with amazing flavor! -Chicken Scallopini: Creamy lemon goodness! Rich flavor with perfectly cooked chicken.

My friends and I visited Saugatuck for a bachelorette party, and this restaurant ended up on our…read moreschedule after a couple of people in our group made a reservation without checking with everyone first. Once we all looked at the menu ahead of time, including the people who made the reservation, we all quickly realized it was much more upscale and limited than what most of us were looking for. Seriously, this place is for sophisticated eaters, and it is not right for everyone. Ya know, it's right for those people who like to spend hundreds of dollars not to get full and then like to gloat about how fancy their palette is because they ate at a gourmet restaurant. We all saw the movie "The Menu", right? We tried calling to cancel our reservation, but were told that cancellations within 24 hours require a $20 per person fee, which would have totaled over $200 for our group. Because of that, we decided to eat elsewhere beforehand and came here mostly for drinks or dessert; only a few people in our group ordered food. While the dishes looked beautiful and high quality, the portions were quite small for the price and felt too specific for my personal taste. I understand the concept of quality over quantity and the blending of flavors perfectly meshing together, but this menu just was not our group's vibe. There were also only a handful of very specific entree options to choose from. They do have a six-course meal option for $110 a person or a nine-course meal option for $160 a person, with wine pairings being optional for $60 more a person, but I was not about to spend $200 for dinner, nor did I want to sample every meal option they had available. I ended up just ordering the sorbet, and it was delicious. When we arrived, we were seated in a private area near the front window at a long table, which was nice in theory, but the space was extremely hot. It was uncomfortable enough that several of us commented on it throughout the night. Our waitress was professional, although it felt a bit awkward since most of us were not ordering full meals. I can understand how that may not have been ideal for a large group from a service standpoint because she was probably expecting a huge bill and, consequently, a huge tip from our party. Overall, I am sure the food is excellent for those who enjoy a more refined and curated dining experience. It just was not the right fit for our group or for me personally, and I would not choose to return on my own. I hope everyone who chooses to come here loves the food and enjoys the experience.

I ordered the Spicy Pork Meatballs ($16) as an appetizer. They were excellent. Not mind blowing unique, but done to a high standard. I came for the Beef Brisket Bourguignon ($36). I had heard they had a real good pot roast. Well it wasn't just really good. It was spectacular! Probably the best I've had. So tender and flavorful. The sauce with it is excellent and perfectly emphasizes the beef. The potatoes and veggies with it are all perfectly cooked also. I finished with their Chocolate Tart ($13). It was fantastic! It is chocolate to the nines. However it doesn't cross the line of being too much. The chocolate is extremely high quality and super tasty. The service was fantastic. It was super friendly and knowledgeable. Attentive without being too much. Shout out to Harrison, he was awesome. Overall one of the easiest 5 star reviews I've ever done.

The hostess was friendly, and the green room where we were seated was very nice--warm, inviting, and comfortable. My husband ordered the pesto pasta and truly enjoyed it. I ordered the salmon and, since I am gluten-free, requested a gluten-free pasta substitute. Unfortunately, the pasta was very watery and lacked flavor. The salmon itself was dry and could have been much better with a simple lemon caper sauce. The carrot served with the dish was cold, which took away from the overall experience--I would have enjoyed it much more if it had been served hot. Our daughter ordered pizza and she liked it. Overall, while there were some positives, the price felt quite high for the quality of the food we received, which made us question if we would return.

I suppose the food is fine enough, but I've had several subpar experiences with their mussels here. It's not a hipster establishment, but the prices do make one question this restaurant's lore. I cannot reconcile the high price with the lack of quantity, regardless of "quality." Truly, I always come back because it's close to home and albeit sounds good, but Pepino's happy hour menu can't be beat imo. They also have nice pasta and it's only $10 on Thursdays instead of $15-23. I understand that Licari's is upscale Sicilian, but I think I prefer establishments that deliver on food and price rather than just talking a big game. Sorry Licari's. $30+ dollars for a salad and a drink is a bit much... I did see some happy hour special for bruschetta and a drink for $15. However, I probably won't come back to try it.

Very tasty with a fresh garlic taste. My only complaint is they don't give you enough sauce to go with it. I had read that they have one of the best pizzas in Michigan. So I ordered a small Amore Pizza ($20). This has House-made sausage, ham, bacon, pineapple, mozzarella cheese, and tomato sauce. I got mine without the pineapple. The pizza was good. It just wasn't special. The ingredients all seemed tasty enough. The crust wasn't my favorite, but I didn't dislike it either. I brought some home and I liked it even less cold. I've had so many better pizzas. Not sure how people think it's the best. The service was outstanding. Definitely service with a smile and enthusiasm. Overall a 4 star review. Would I return? For the pizza, no. Maybe to try something else. It is definitely an above average place, just maybe not for me.
