"DOWNRIGHT FANTASTIC!! This is a must visit restaurant! And you need reservations if you want to eat here on a weekend. We drove by on the way to a tasting at The Blue Dot winery, which is .5 miles away, also fabulous. We decided to go at 4pm when they opened to see if we could get a table without a reservation. We got there right at 4pm and so did about 25 other people. Luckily we were one of the first 2 to enter the doors when they opened. There were no tables left but since we were early, we were able to snag seats at the bar. The bar is U shaped and surrounds the counter where the food orders come up. The bartender, Liz was clearly a seasoned professional. She could feel when the food hit the counter. even with her back turned. The plates were just about to be set down and she was grabbing them to serve them. She was very attentive and had a bar full of people eating dinner as well as having drinks. We both ordered the 10 piece shrimp dinner that Laura at the Blue Dot winery recommended. We ordered half fried and half steamed with mashed potatoes and I ordered green beans and my husband opted for asparagus. We split an order of crab cakes as an appetizer. The crab cakes were phenomenal! Best crab cakes we have ever had, even in Maryland! Sorry, Maryland peeps! The shrimp were beyond amazing. The fried shrimp had to have been made by a French pastry who loves fried food. That 's the only thing that makes sense. My husband doesn 't even like any fried food and is a tough restaurant critic and he was totally gob smacked at their deliciousness, as was I! The shrimp was tender w a light, crispy batter. The steamed shrimp were so tender as well. Hands down the best shrimp we have ever had. They advertise as the best shrimp and they are not kidding! The coleslaw was so fresh and flavorful. Best coleslaw ever. The green beans and asparagus were bright green and fresh and cooked to perfection. Nothing I hate more than dark, limp, over cooked green beans. The mashed potatoes were light and fluffy and yummy as was the bread with the seasoned butter, This was one of the best meals we have ever had and we are well traveled. The restaurant was super clean, as were the restrooms. The staff is very efficient. It 's one thing to cook good food and another to run a restaurant efficiently. To cook amazing food, serve it hot and with excellent service is another level. If you are ever in Charlevoix, this is the place to eat. If you don 't like seafood there 's other choices. We are leaving town tomorrow and we were sad to find out it 's closed tomorrow because we were ready to come back again!"

"We hired Grey Gables for our Castle Farms wedding for both catering and bartending. Their communication is awesome and Katie made sure to answer all our questions leading up to the big day. Doing a taste test to choose the menu was a fun experience and they are so open with any ideas you have and flexible with any dietary needs for your guests! Grey Gables is very experienced which makes the process so simple with well-organized information packets and great recommendations. The food was definitely a win as we got many compliments on it and the staff day of was incredibly sweet! They even made my husband and I an extra plate after they put the buffet away since we got busy hosting and didn’t each much of our meal. The bartenders also did an amazing job keeping up with everyone and even learning certain people’s orders so it was a breeze when they went up for another. They also take care of cutting your cake and boxing up any leftovers for you at the end of the night which was so appreciated! I would highly recommend Grey Gables' catering and bartending services for your event."

""Daisy Grille is amazing! I would eat there every day if I could. My go-to order is the cheeseburger with all the toppings and a chocolate-dipped cone. I sometimes eat the cone as an appetizer and even take the burger to-go. The staff is wonderful, including the owner. I might have to visit during this early snowstorm to eat my feelings!""

"It was $8 for two cups of coffee, and it was some of the worst coffee I’ve ever had. It was watery and disgusting. It was so bad my mom I ended up throwing them away with 80% left. Not sure if it was just a bad batch but I was extremely disappointed. Service: Take out Meal type: Other Price per person: $1–10 Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3"

"They have both sweet and savory crêpes. Stick with the sweet! I absolutely LOVED the ‘sweet’ banana and Nutella crêpe! I’d give it 5 stars, but the ‘savory’ crepe that I ate first was not good. It was supposed to have caramelized onions, spinach, mushrooms and Swiss cheese, but all I could taste and feel as I bit down was a lot of spinach. I told the cashier (when I went back in to get a sweet crêpe) that it was like biting into turf. It really was. She said to ask for less spinach next time. How was I to know it would have a dense stack of spinach? I couldn’t even finish it. She listened to my feedback and was friendly, but she didn’t offer to do anything to make it right. I still ordered a sweet crêpe because I heard how good those were and I still wanted to try one. It would’ve been good Customer Service to do something to make it right, (I.e. apologize and refund the money for the savory crêpe or comp the sweet one) but she didn’t. EDIT: I appreciate the owner’s comment and offer to make it right. If I can get back there before I leave the area I will. 2ND EDIT: I went back in and the owner was totally different than his response on here. He said I shouldn’t “expect a refund just because I ordered something I didn’t like” and chastised me for posting my review. (I did try to address it with the cashier when I went back in, and I still ordered a sweet crêpe even though she did nothing to address it). My review was very positive about the sweet crêpe and honest about the savory one so others may want to stick to the sweet (or ask for less spinach, like the cashier suggested for next time). Maybe I just got a bad one with tough spinach. I don’t know, but it was hard to bite into and I couldn’t finish eating it. I normally love spinach things, which is why I ordered it. He had a totally different tone in person than his response on here. He said he’d refund my money. I told him not to bother after how he was speaking to me in front of other customers and I just wanted to leave. I thought he was going to be as nice as his response on here and then I’d update my review my ratings. Quite the opposite happened when I went in there. I won’t be back after how he treated me. Too bad, I really liked the sweet crêpe."
