I had the lunch combo with chicken soup, which was amazing, salad, and a corn muffin....deeeelicious. I also had the blueberry tea, so good I had to get a refill for the road. Our waitress was awesome, and the atmosphere was perfect. Our food came super fast.

Red Robin Gourmet Burgers

Reviewed By pbk96

The Avo-Cobbo salad had two half slices of avocado (about a tablespoon size) that were partially brown. Yuck! The chicken on the salad was a 2” by 3” thin breast that was dried out and rubbery. Very little tomato. The two small pieces of garlic bread were stale. Yuck! It was basically a big bowl of lettuce.

Reviewed By Beelinden

Being out on a cold day shopping with my daughter, Bar Louie looked very warm and inviting. We were greeted by a server rather quickly who took our drink order and then our food order. Food took awhile and was average, similar to ruby tuesday. The waitress never came back after serving our food to check on us. We finished eating and sat there about 15 to 20 minutes waiting until I was finally able to catch her attention and ask for the bill. The best quality of the restaurant is the atmosphere, cozy with a fireplace and bottles of wine displayed on the wall. Will try again some day in hopes that service improves.

Texas Roadhouse

Reviewed By EricandVal

I've grown to have high expectations at a Texas Roadhouse, and usually love their steaks: great seasoning, beautifully cooked, and tender meat. So on this visit I ordered the filet medium rare. It came barely warm on one side, and even calling it rare would be a push. Took awhile to get someone to take it back, and then it was 10 minutes before they brought me another filet - this time well done. By this time my business associate was done with his meal, and my potatoes were cold. So, the server promised fresh potatoes and a steak properly cooked. 20 minutes later nothing. And, the manager that was supposed to stop by still hasn't shown up. We stood up (to get attention), and told our server to forget it. We were done. Manager finally showed up with a coupon worth less than the steak I ordered. We paid for the one meal and won't be returning to this location.

Redwood Steakhouse & Brewery

Reviewed By Skye9988

I had a very disappointing meal at this restaurant tonight. It’s unfortunate, because just a little over a year ago I wrote a five star review for them. First of all, the restaurant was not busy at all. It was a Tuesday night and I ordered the beer and onion soup, the Salmon Oscar, and a cocktail. The soup came right with the salad which wasn’t that big of a deal. I finished eating my salad, while letting the soup cool down a bit because it was served quite hot. However, before I could even get halfway through my soup, my entree arrived. I immediately asked the server to take it back and place it under a warmer because I don’t like to eat cold food. I wanted to enjoy my soup. He took it, but he brought it back to me within five minutes and darted away before I could stop him. I was still eating the soup! So, by the time I got my entree, it was stone cold. The mashed potatoes were so cold they were inedible. I ended up asking the server to bring me some hot Hollandaise sauce so I could put it on the salmon to warm it back up. Instead, he brought me a bowl of cold Hollandaise sauce. I had to catch his attention again, which wasn’t easy, and ask again for the sauce to be heated up. I’ve had the Salmon Oscar each time I’ve gone to this restaurant, and it’s always been delicious. Tonight, I’m sure if it had been served me at a reasonable pace, I would’ve enjoyed a nice hot meal. I don’t understand how a restaurant like this, which is rather upscale for this area, would bring everything out at once. My server clearly didn’t understand that the customer might want to actually have time to enjoy their food. I wasn’t in a rush, and the place wasn’t busy so it wasn’t as if they needed me to eat fast to accommodate a crowd of hungry people waiting for my table. This was a very big disappointment to me. Eating at a place like this is a splurge, and I looked forward to a relaxing, delicious meal. I certainly don’t feel that I got my money’s worth tonight, and I did complain to the manager that my food was cold, but she didn’t offer any discount. She only commented that my server should’ve offered to warm my meal back up. He never did offer to do that. Overall, I’m sure I’ll be back because it is one of my family’s favorite restaurants. However, I will certainly avoid this particular server, and I won’t order the soup again. It was the most delicious part of my meal, but eating it cost me the chance to enjoy the rest of the meal . Clearly the pacing for this entire dinner was terrible.

On my way to Lansing, I stopped at this BK for a breakfast sandwich. It was overcooked (microwave) and was tough. The dining room wasn't very clean. Next time, I think I'll go across the street for Taco Bell or Mickey D's.

Reviewed By Jym471

We stopped at Pesto’s Restaurant for lunch after picking up our daughter from Bishop Airport. Joseph, our waiter, was the best. Very friendly & helpful. There were four of us and each one ordered something different. Every lunch was delicious.We will definitely eat here again. We live about 80 miles from the restaurant so we can’t be here as often as we would like.Thank you, Joseph, and all the staff at Pesto. It was truly a great experience and we will be back again soon.

The Draft Sports Bar and Grille

Reviewed By Teri M

We have been here many times and tried many different menu selections. So far the only thing I wasn't wild about was the spinach dip. Love their special wines especially the Musicbox Moscato. It's a fun atmosphere and they have different things going on certain days like trivia and other games. The wait staff is kind of hit and miss. Some are really on top of things and others aren't as attentive and don't check back for drink refills or take a while to get your order in but overall it's still one of our favorite places to hang out.

JT's Country Kitchen

Reviewed By Lynne3327

Best Mac and cheese that I have ever eaten! Fabulous cinnamon swirl bread as a side to my Irish 3 egg - Swiss cheese- corned beef- omelette. Rare to find smelt on a specials board, but TJ’s had it. Coney dog was cooked properly. Friendly waitresses. Food served quickly even though the restaurant was busy. Food was served hot, too! Wish I lived closer because this would be a favorite place.
