So cool to just walk around and check things out. Oh, by the way, the drinks are GREAT! We tried a couple varieties, with different liquors and all were good. We ended up buying a bottle of gin. It was mid-afternoon on a Monday so not crowded whatsoever so just got served right away. Bartenders were nice and gave nice recommendations based on what liquors we like.

It was a super rainy day and really dampened our skiing situation, but we made the most of it and found this place. Not only did we sample 10+ mac & cheese options, but we also washed it down with several delicious drinks from the bar. Truly a beautiful place, great venue for weddings and receptions. There are also dart boards, pool tables, table shuffleboard...lots to do with friends for a different feel to just sitting at a bar. This place is worth a visit and has so much to offer

We liked the cocktails, we ordered the ribeye steak and it was perfect and we split everything and they split the plates and gave us extra portions of vegetables and potatoes without charging extra. The kale salad was very good but I would say the dressing is a little too sweet for some. A great place to dine for dinner.

If you ever take a trip up north, this spot is a must try. I tried some delicious Asian fusion…read moredishes that were very unique! To start, the atmosphere is beautiful, with the restaurant right on the harbor of Little Traverse Bay. The ambiance inside was welcoming, with the bar being connected to the outside seating. The service was also amazing, helping out with food and drink recs as well as constantly checking in. The food and drink were the stars of the show. We had the ahi tuna tacos, sticky ribs, crispy shrimp bao buns, and buffalo chicken lollipops. There were so many mouth-watering shareable options that we had to just get a bunch of those. Loved every bite! The drinks were also phenomenal. I tried the moon rabbit, which ended up being one of my favorite drinks I've ever had. Gin, ginger, lime, cucumber, and sesame oil - unbelievably refreshing combination, give it a try. Overall this place was phenomenal and it will now be a must have on future trips up north!

Nomad in Bay Harbor is such a beautiful restaurant with an elevated, upscale feel, and the location…read moreis hard to beat. It sits right on the water, making it the perfect spot for a nice meal with a gorgeous view. I'll be honest--the food used to be pretty mediocre in my opinion, but I'm not sure what changed because they have seriously stepped up their game! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We had the shrimp bao buns, burrata, lobster pappardelle, and the flank steak with grits, and every single dish was a 10/10. The flavors are unique, interesting, and so well done. The portions are also surprisingly generous. It's definitely on the pricier side, but you're getting high-quality food AND a substantial amount of it, so it feels well worth it. The restaurant is beautiful and clean, and the service is always excellent. If you're in the Bay Harbor area, I'd definitely recommend giving Nomad a try--you won't be disappointed!

Chandler's is a Northern Michigan fine dining hidden gem! The dishes here are well developed, have…read moreexcellent flavor & are executed perfectly! The service is incredibly helpful, professional & friendly! The atmosphere is incredible, & dining in the wine cellar is a must!! There are no wrong choices here, everything is seriously phenomenal! The steak tartare is a great starter to share with the table, the amount of crab in the crab cakes is fantastic, and serving the caesar in a parmesan tuile makes it that much more fun to eat! The boar shank I had made for the perfect winter meal, it is fall off the bone tender & the sweet potato gnocchi pairs so well with it! The salmon florentine is another beautiful dish & you have to enjoy the amazing wine selection they offer!

Their efforts don't go unnoticed. Also, I have to thank them for their consistency, quality, taste, portions of their variety of food offered. Accomplishing all this while keeping the prices reasonable at a time when so many other restaurants are taking unnecessary advantage and being greedy while blaming inflation. It can't be easy so again thank you. The weather today was overcast, but at the landing the atmosphere was sunny and bright! Don't, miss a visit this Northern gem of a restaurant especially if you love lobster! Their Lobster Rolls are amazing? Also, be sure to check out their Roll Back Specials! That idea is terrific. Thank you Carson for excellent service and making this visit once again perfect!

One of the managers, Lisa, stopped by our table to check on us. She was so nice & told me she loved my daughter's pigtails (she said she never got to do any fun girl hairstyles because she's a 4 time boy mom lol) We were out shopping in town & decided to come back here for food! The pulled pork sandwich was delicious & my husband loved his perch dinner! We tried to get our daughter to eat the grilled cheese kids meal, but she decided my husband & my food was better lol The sweet potato waffle fries are really good! I loved the peanut butter sauce but did not care for the strawberry jelly dip. 3 years ago we ate here on a sunny day & it was beautiful. Even though it was rainy today, the beachside vibe still made it fun! Hopefully it doesn't take us another 3 years to make it back to the area because I would definitely eat here again! (Anthony plus is that the bathrooms are clean & they have scent sticks which make it smell good)
