    Heck Yeah!

    The Landing is a Northern Michigan favorite! The Landing is located right on a dock in Lake Charlevoix & you can drive your boat right up to the restaurant! The vibes are amazing & perfect for the summer & the service is great. It's a must to get fresh seafood when Up North & the lake perch is absolutely delicious! The PB&J sweet potato waffle fries go so well with this & it's such a fun twist! The Asian cashew bowl was super yummy & all of their fun cocktails are extra refreshing on a hot summer day! ‍

    The totality of the dining experience at the Landing Restaurant makes it one of our favorite destinations when in the area. Best waterfront dining view, hands down. Gorgeous patio; clean, casual, hip. It is so fun to watch the Ironton ferry shuttle people and cars back and forth. Ample parking with waiting areas filled with beautiful flowers and water views. If you come during lunch and dinner rush, expect to wait. The staff are all wonderful. Many staff look young yet they are all friendly and well-trained. We watched a manager respond to a challenge seating a large group and were impressed with how gracious and friendly she was with customers who appeared disgruntled. Now for the food: honestly, if this review were based on taste alone, y rating would be closer to a 3-4. However, portions are ample, well presented, arrived hot and were good. In an area with great food, it's definitely the ambience and wonderfully run restaurant that keeps us coming back. And the prices... so reasonable we had to do a double take when we received our bill. We shared two entrees and drank only water, yet were still impressed with the reasonable pricing. Great place for families.

    This is a must! The ambience was unbelievable on the banks of the lake. The food was very good and very affordable. And the service was top notch as well, even though I felt the waitress was focusing a little too much on her friends who had come to the restaurant. It was hard to find Jewel and I'm glad we found it.

    Absolute must do if you're close !!

    Heard about this place for a long time and we took our boat over and had a wonderful experience! Dickens to help you secure your boat . Knowledgeable girls at the front that know the correct wait time. Just outside the front door is a sidebar and play area for the kiddos. Extremely hard-working employees and quite an operation here I was super impressed. We went with the awesome fresh fried perch basket , but everything else I saw looked fantastic. Only open 100 days a year, but it's a must do place. 10 stars on a five star scale.

    This afternoon, we chose to eat lunch at The Landing. To avoid the lunch rush, we arrived at 1:30 and were immediately seated in the outdoor patio on the banks of Lake Charlevoix, adjacent to the car ferry. All tables have umbrellas for shade which was great because the temp and humidity were both in the 80's. Fortunately a fairly consistent breeze kept it comfortable. We both chose the lamb burger which is a mixture of ground beef and lamb on a focaccia bun with a slab of feta, bib lettuce, pickled onions and a succulent sauce that makes my mouth water just thinking about it. It was accompanied with fried potato chips and made for a total party in my mouth! We tried a tequila mocktail which I didn't care for. Our server, the hostess and all other employees were friendly and obviously love their jobs. We'll definitely recommend this restaurant.

    Beautiful setting, superb service ( thanks Jaxson), terrific lobster roll. Fresh, flavorful, and a huge portion of lobster. It comes with chips but they go with the roll perfectly. Ask for a side of jalapeño mayo....yummy for the roll or the chips.
