Excellent food and awesome staff. Felt like you were eating at home.
The "All You Can Eat Perch" is an amazing deal.
Make sure to have a sweet potato as one of your sides. It is fantastic.

We try to stop here whenever we are near Traverse City...especially for the banana bread French toast❤ Their corned beef hash is homemade with chunks of potato and the beef is tender and flavorful. The service is excellent and the waitresses friendly. The only disappointment is that we were not able to buy a loaf of the banana bread to take home with us😉 Great value for the money!
