If you're getting a side of biscuits and gravy... plan to share it with someone. So many great options to choose from. Don't think you can go wrong with anything you decide on. A few tables outside but mostly inside. Smaller diner with 2 bathrooms (one men and one women). Our server was nice and made sure we were happy with our choices. I ordered a breakfast sandwich on a biscuit and she warned me that the biscuit was too large and advised me to choose something else and I'm glad I did because AGAIN... the biscuits are MASSIVE! And delicious :)

My companion ordered a cheeseburger that looked great and he was impressed as well. The service was was friendly, and our wait for a well done burger was as generally acceptable. The restaurant was quiet when we arrived but the radio station our kind of music. Clean dining area. My guess is that this is probably a fun place to stop for folks on the way home from work. We will stop on the way up or down to the UP the next time.

We all want to support small mom and pop places when we come up- atleast pretend to like your job. This place could be a fun place- i do know Swamp Bar is very full when you drive by, i wonder if it's because the service is more fun and better over there...leaves much to be desired tho On a scale of 10...it's a solid 6.5. Could be an 8 with some attitude adjustments starting at the hostess stand when you walk in

It was better than what I've enjoyed at various traditional Cajun/Creole restaurants over the years. The difference? The flavors were spot on. The consistency of the soup was perfect -- not too thick, not too runny. The Beef & Cheddar Burger was a patty made from brisket and browned on both sides to a light crust and topped with cheddar cheese melted on top on a hamburger bun. I added a little of their BBQ sauce instead of my usual burger condiments. It was fantastic! I've heard Ray's is great, but I had no idea they were this great!

There are limited restaurant options closer to Interlochlen unless we drove through Traverse City. No reservations required. Super busy, but they get people in pretty quickly. Once seated, we started off with the smoked trout and artichoke dip. The dip was fantastic! We could have used more crackers, but we finished it! For my cocktail, I enjoyed an espresso martini. For dinner, my husband and I got the Friday trout special with mushroom risotto and broccoli. My mom got the two smoked meat platter with wings and ribs. To end the night, we shared a slice of coconut cream pie. Delicious! Definitely would stop by again if we were in the area.

The sausage gravy was just okay, but I couldn't eat the eggs. I even cut one open and left a half on the plate so it was obvious the yolk had been cooked solid. The waitress never once asked why I wasn't eating them or if there was anything wrong. What disappointed me even more was the service. She never came back to check on us after the food was delivered. When she finally returned to refill our coffee, she was talking to someone else and looking in another direction, so there wasn't even an opportunity to mention the issue. To top it all off, I accidentally left my white Yeti behind. I went back first thing the next morning, and they told me it wasn't there. It's literally the only place I went that day, so that was pretty disappointing as well. Overall, it wasn't just the food. Mistakes happen. It was the lack of attention and customer service that left the bad impression.
