10. Itty Bitty Bar
Overall Ratings
4 based on 132 reviews
Itty Bitty Bar is your local 5-star dive bar. We are a great place to meet up with friends or to make some new ones!
Reviewed By Denise S
Like others have said, don't let the name fool you! It's actually quite large - with awesome open air seating on one side. Live music, great food, and "Animal" was an amazing server who helped us rush to get out to enjoy lakeside sunset, even though staying all night would have been a blast too (and we did another night.) The vibe is fun, and the whole "Five Star Dive Bar" slogan feels right although it really isn't a "dive" at all, they just want it to feel that way (relaxed and friendly.) Pizza and salad amazing - will be back to try plenty more.

Because it is a bit out of town, the Ottawa Beach Inn is not known to as many non-beach goers as it should be. Some of the best fried perch to be had anywhere; the basket has perhaps 10 perch, accompanied by tartar sauce, cole slaw, and french fries. Although the perch are my favorites, there are many other choices, including excellent BBQ pulled pork, smoked on the premises.

This was only our second time visiting since the new decor and menu and the Beechwood Grill did not disappoint. Meals were good with appropriate portion size and the service was also good. Enjoyable evening here.

We went as a couple with our toddler. I was a little hesitant about bringing a child, but it was a little more relaxed for a "nice" place than I was expecting, which is fantastic for any kids tagging along. Our food was very good, but we did find the service a bit too slow. The table behind us felt the same way, as we heard them ask a staff member if they would have a server at some point. We also waited quite a while before someone came to even get drinks started for us...we sort of felt forgotten after we'd been sitting for quite some time. Me and my husband LOVED the spicy Thai lettuce wraps appetizer. Our main dishes were still tasty, but compared to the appetizer they were a slight letdown...that's how much we loved the appetizer. I would order the Thai lettuce wraps as my actual meal next time. My "Moscow Mule" (called something else there), was a little too light on the lime for my liking, so I asked for some extra lime and it was perfect. My husband got a beer on tap that he wanted to try, so he was happy with that. Outdoor space looked lovely, but we ate inside. We'd definitely go back, just wish the service was little more on-point.Thank you for your feedback Stephanie!

This is a 3.5 star review. Adorable brewery with a cool vibe and a storefront for beer and spirits purchases, with a fun Bloody Mary bar on Saturday which we indulged in! Our server MJ was hilarious, upbeat & friendly, very honest with his recommendations on the menu... the spicy fried chicken sandwich was pretty good as was the fish sandwich. The Bahn Michigan fell a but short as the pork belly was way too fatty and no rendering of any of the fat, not crispy at all, so too heavy and overly rich. Also could use more flavor.A haven for beer enthusiasts which we were not, but still enjoyed.

We arrived around 5:30 on a Sunday for dinner. Hostess told us the wait would be 40 minutes and took our cell number. We waited over an hour and then were told that we still couldn't be seated because the kitchen was backed up even though there were multiple open tables. We have a special needs child and asked if we could just sit down and get him drinks while we waited. We were told no. This is not an acceptable way to treat customers. If there were a problem in the kitchen we could have been told earlier so that we could go elsewhere to get food for our kids. We visit Holland often because our son is at Hope College but will not visit Hops again after we were treated so poorly.PMFANDME,I apologize, on behalf of the restaurant, for the service that you received on the Sunday that you visited us. The host staff and the manager on duty have been briefed on the proper way to handle this situation if it happens in the future.I'd like to talk more in depth about your experience.

Our large group was seated quickly during the early dinner rush,and 0our server did a wonderful job with both getting our varied orders and spacing the serving properly and with a smile. The food ranged from salmon bakes to wet burritos to chicken dinners, all with sides, and all were just really good. The prices are very reasonable for the quantity and quality of the meal along with the service. There's no horsin' around here, for the restaurant just works hard to give all a good time!Thank you for your great review!We appreciate your dining with us and are glad we met your expectations :)
