Small plates restaurant
Restaurant
Taste is a cozy bar and eatery offering a diverse menu of small plates paired with martinis. The chef-inspired, made-from-scratch recipes include options like mac-n-cheese, potato pancakes, salmon, tuna tartare, blue gill, Korean chicken barbecue, sushi, and fish tacos. There are also dairy-free, garlic-free, egg-free, and vegan choices available. Chef Joel adds a unique twist to traditional dishes for an exceptional dining experience.
I was so happy to see that Taste is still alive and doing well in South Haven. It’s been 11 years since I visited this town and this restaurant. Of course I had to dine here again since I had a great experience last time, and it did not disappoint. Austin was our server and took great care of us. He was friendly and personable. My husband and I started out with martini cocktails, a paper plane (bourbon drink) for him and a blueberry lemon one for me. Both were tasty. We decided to share four small plates for dinner, cilantro tuna roll, seafood dip, blue gill and jerk shrimp. Each plate was delicious. Food and cocktails on point! I definitely recommend Taste.

We always head to Taste on our first night in South Haven. The bread and butter is simple but seriously delicious - it's our single favorite thing on the menu! The ribs are reliable - tender and tasty. The tomato bisque is also excellent. The hummus was a little disappointing, not a lot of flavor and the pita seemed like grocery store pita right out of the bag - grilled and seasoned would be a nice touch. But overall reliable and tasty.

This restaurant is a MUST TRY when you’re in town!! Their food is top notch! We were in town for 2 nights and we had to eat here both days, that’s how good it was the first night! The jerk shrimp is a MUST!! Coconut sweet rice with a perfectly seasoned slightly spicy shrimp… what a combo! We also LOVED their sushi! The atmosphere and the location are perfect. Service was excellent as well! If you’re a fan of bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and great drinks, this place is an absolute must-visit. Overall experience, delicious food, exceptional service, and a fantastic atmosphere! 10/10 in every way. We will definitely be coming back!

My husband and I LOVED this restaurant! We walked in on a Saturday and were able to get seated right away. The restaurant is clean, well maintained, and has plenty of bar seating as well. Service was great and food came out pretty quick. We ordered the salmon, filet bites, and Mac and cheese. Everything was delicious but we liked the filet bites the most. This was one of the highlights of our trip to South Haven. I’d love to come back here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting!

We came here for our one year wedding anniversary and enjoyed some incredible food! The sushi melted in my mouth and they had some bread pudding with pumpkin ice cream that was a real treat! Our server Heidi was super friendly too!

We went to Taste for my birthday dinner based on reviews I had seen when looking for South Haven restaurants. It did not disappoint! We got several small plates to share and some to keep to ourselves - I chose the blackened chicken in fennel cream sauce while my husband had the filet bites medium rare. He also got tempura shrimp. We split the potato pancakes and the chef's mac & cheese (chipotle cheddar with bacon and tomatoes). My drink was the Elderflower Breeze and he had a Larceny Old Fashioned. And we topped off the meal with a cookie pie. We ate everything but about 3 of the sushi rolls and while we were definitely full, we weren't overstuffed. We are definitely adding Taste to our rotation of places to eat when in the area! Be aware that parking can be a bit tricky if you are visiting during peak summer season. We found street parking a couple of blocks away but we did have to loop a few times. Also during peak season, they limit the number of reservations in order to open up more tables for walk-ins. We arrived about 6:30 pm to put our name in and were seated in about 45 minutes. People that came in closer to 7 were given wait times anywhere from 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours (inside vs. outside seating). It sounded like you could also walk in and eat at the bar if spots were available. The atmosphere is lively and loud. We saw all types of attire from dressy to extremely casual (think post-beach - shorts, tube top, and flip flops). We were perfectly fine in jeans and nicer tops.

Restaurant
Clementine's is a spacious and relaxed dining destination housed in a historic building from the 1800s. It offers a variety of classic dishes such as seafood, pasta, and grilled meats. The restaurant has been a popular spot for both locals and tourists for nearly 40 years. Its menu features traditional favorites like French onion soup, homemade onion rings, and fried lake perch. The nostalgic decor includes original brickwork, tin ceilings, and an old bank safe.
I had the half pound of perch. It was excellent. The onion rings were amazing. There are some non alcoholic wines on the menu and I found that to be great. The service was good. The restaurant has a lot of charm with its Western style ambiance.

I've been coming here since I was a kid. Great food always, I was able to bring my one year old here for his first time this past weekend. The waiting system has been modernized with a text based notification, which is convenient. Excellent staff, menu, and dining conditions. I enjoyed the olive burger on my most recent visit. The onion rings are particularly well prepared.

Last minute decision for a place to eat and always on par with food and service. Brittany was great and kind. Had a burger and fries so nothing too fancy. I usually get the famous onion rings but maybe next time. Thanks again for a wonderful experience!

What an incredibly beautiful restaurant. This is such a special place on the lake right in the heart of South Haven, an enchanting little beach town. Having grown up in Benton Harbor / St. Joseph, the main downtown area of South Haven reminds me of the quaint beauty of St. Joseph. The decor of the restaurant is old world style, with interesting model ship builds and marina themed artwork and photography. The well-made wooden furniture adds to that incredible charm, welcoming visitors into the adventurous ambience of the place. The food itself was delicious, warm, and effortlessly savory. The salads were GIGANTIC in portion, which was surprising and very pleasing! The decadent garlic toast is a must have for every visitor, it is simply to die for. The various fried fish options are plentiful and very well seasoned for flavorful morsels in every bite. Visual presentations of each dish were simple and exquisite with a pub-style feel. Ready made sauces and easy access sides like coleslaw are perfect pairings for every entree. The specialty drinks were made well. My husband enjoyed a Bloody Mary, while I chose a simple Shirley Temple, but was wonderfully made with cherry splendor. Clementine's is a must visit for every visitor to South Haven. This is a dining experience you won't soon forget! ⛵️

Beautiful and large interior. Friendly service. Tater skins were good. Fry texture was a bit rubbery. Didn't finish them. This is for regular plus curly. Perch sandwich should have a lil less bread or a lil more perch. But the perch wasn't my favorite anyway. Hot chicken was decent.

The hostess was super nice upon entry but the bartender was an absolute nightmare when I was trying to pick up my to go order. She had a terrible attitude and turned my smile upside down very quickly. The energy she gave to me made me forget to tip the kitchen because I thought it’d go to her and she was so unpleasant. The food was decent in comparison to a normal Caesar salad, but it definitely wasn’t the quality I normally get here. This is the first time I’ve ordered out from here and I probably wouldn’t again. It was also within the first hour they opened, I don’t know. Maybe it was an off day.

Italian restaurant
Maria's Taste of Italy is a charming, family-run restaurant that offers a true Italian dining experience. The owner/chef uses a 100-year-old family recipe for Italian sausage, adding a personal touch to the menu. Guests can enjoy homemade favorites such as lasagna, meatballs, pizza, ravioli, and breadsticks. The gelato selection and mouthwatering pies are also highly praised by patrons.
We had a nice dinner at Maria's. The pasta was fantastic, the lasagna was delicious, and the pizza was a 7.5/8 out of 10. We prefer mozzarella and it was nice and thick. We don't eat Italian often, but we do like it. This time around, we were pleased. The service was good location was fine. Recommended-MVP

My dental hygienist just got back from a trip to South Haven just as we were getting ready to head that way so I asked her what she recommended and Maria's was at the TOP of her list. Obviously we HAD to stop. We were NOT disappointed! Our server was very nice and did an ok job. A little slow, but not anything bad. The food was INCREDIBLE! Like roll your eyes back in your head kinda good. My husband got the open faced meatball sub. I got spaghetti. And our daughter got the stuffed shells. My husband and I came home with an entire second meals worth of leftovers. And the price was very reasonable. It was only $50 for the three of us. My favorite part was how QUIET the restaurant was. I have sensory issues and crowd noises/restaurant noises can be very painful for me. There was very little of that here. A little bit of noise from the kitchen, but hardly any crowd noises. (It was also 2pm on a Saturday. So it wasn't very crowded.) Which is JUST what I needed after strolling the Center Street shops. We will definitely be coming back to Maria's if we visit South Haven again!
Tamar K — Google review
Maria's taste of Italy serves mouth-watering family recipes handed down from Sicilian ancestors with from-scratch bread and perfectly seasoned sauces. The Alfredo sauce was creamy with extra cheese. The meatball appetizers were big enough for an entree. Fresh breadsticks melt in your mouth. Even the herbal tea was served with a slice of lemon, selection of flavors, and extra hot water. Staff were friendly and genuine. They also offer a selection of locally bottled soda. We came on. Monday for lunch around noon and were seated immediately. Definitely recommend!
Amber G — Google review
Wow... the food was excellent! It was busy so we sat outside, which wasn't bad, but the service is probably better if you're inside. The toasted ravioli was great, the pizza was good and the Palmero was excellent. Great flavors and preparation all around 🔥 would definitely recommend and will return.
Chase C — Google review
Went to Maria's in the early afternoon on a Thursday. It was cloudy out and we asked to sit outside, to which the wait staff were highly against due to a fear of rain and if it were to get busy, the service would have been slow. Ok, no worries. We then sat upstairs. The upstairs was bigger than we thought, and had cute decor. The waitress came to our table and introduced herself within 5 minutes of being seated. We got lemonade, milk for our toddler and a sprite tasting drink. They do not have cups for kids. The side salad came out drenched in dressing and cheese. We ordered a 16 inch Margherita Pizza. The pizza was filling, but the pizza did not taste the greatest. It was the equivalent to a cheese bread. The service was good, but we'd skip this place if we want a pizza in South Haven.

I will start with the good: The chicken Parmesan was the best we’ve ever had, we ate most of it before we could take pictures. I would come back for that dish alone. Generous portion size, reasonable price, flavor was awesome, cooked to perfection. I would also like to try the lasagne and spaghetti. Waitress was so kind and pleasant. The not so good: Extremely Long wait times, and did not allow carry out on Saturday. I would suggest calling hours ahead, going inside to put your name on the wait list, and go do something to pass time until they call. Also, the pizza was unbelievably disappointing. The crust was hard, dry, and seemed like a frozen pre made crust—NOT FRESH HAND TOSSED DOUGH like you would expect from an Italian restaurant—ESPECIALLY FOR THE PRICE POINT. Definitely disgusting and from the pictures online it looks like maybe they changed the way the pizza was made recently? It appears that it was fresh hand tossed dough at some point before, but what we received looks like a frozen pizza. Save your money for sure and stick with the other menu items.

They offer gluten free dining options including cheesy bread (so good!), pizzas, pastas including raviolis, and desserts. The entrees are massive! I highly recommend giving it a try but maybe take them up on the split plate charge because it’s so much food!

Old school Italian restaurant. Pizza was quite good as was were the salad and bread sticks. Menu was fairly diverse with a decent number of vegetarian and pescatarian options. Service was very good and the atmosphere eclectic and interesting.

She refilled our drinks as needed and brought out our food exactly as we ordered. The quinoa sweet potato burger was delicious, the fries were seasoned perfectly and crispy. You can’t go wrong with the Philly and fries here either! They have fresh brewed ice tea and a full bar. Kid friendly atmosphere. Nice location near Lake Michigan and other shops.

After looking at South Havens art work located around the town and going on the beach for awhile I got hungry and found this place. Best restaurant out of all the restaurants I’ve eaten at in South Haven. The waitresses working Joi and Noelia were super friendly and nice. Noelia was our waitress and I haven’t had service as good as that in a long time. Drinks came out fast as well as the food so it was hot. She was attentive to our table and was just super sweet. The food we got that was awesome is beer battered cod with homemade tartar sauce and a house salad with ranch dressing, Philly classic steak Sandwich with fries, fried portobellos with ranch dressing for dipping. Everything was excellent and for the quality of food at a fair price. The establishment is cleanly it is smaller than some but if it gets busy I would definently recommend waiting for a table it’ll be worth the wait. They also have a full serving bar with tvs.

Met some friends here for dinner. We aren't in South Haven a lot and had never heard of this place, but our friends chose it. It was really good! Service was a little slow, but to be fair, it was only her third day on the job. I got the Philly and it was really good. They don't give you a ton of fries, but they were good. And I certainly don't need more fries. I was going to get the fried chicken but the waitress said it takes a half hour to prepare. And Neal didn't have a half hour because he's diabetic. Stupid Neal! Just kidding. And plus I got to eat the Philly. Neal the diabetic got a Po' Boy and he liked it a lot. My wife also got that but on a gluten free bun. And she likes here a lot too. Betsy got a burger but I forgot to ask what she thought of that.

Well. I’m not one to leave bad reviews. Like ever. However I feel like I need to help others avoid the experience we had. The fries & service were decent/average but the rest of our food all tasted like it had been pulled from the freezer and then fried in old grease. The highlight of our meal was the gum in the car afterward.

Great spot on the edge of the main strip. The strip is pretty narrow with limited parking but there is a nice free public parking lot directly behind the restaurant making it really convenient. We went at lunch on a Thursday and there weren't a ton of people. Our waitress was super friendly. We ordered the spicy fried pickles and cheese curds to start, both were excellent and cooked well. My wife and son got different burgers, both of which were delicious. I got the half friend chicken which was fried to perfection with a great crunch on the outside and juicy/tender on the inside. We had 2 smaller kids that ordered off the kids menu and there were no complaints on the chicken nuggets or Mac n cheese. We were in town for a day and a half and we asked our waitress if she had any recommendations and she sat down and talked with us for a good 5-10minutes about everything available in the are. The inside is a pretty typical bar and grill set up, they had a great early 2000s alternative rock Playlist on the speakers for a good vibe.

I ordered The Waldorf burger and I can genuinely say, it was probably the best burger I’ve had in my life. I don’t normally order burgers when I go out because I feel like they’re mostly the same everywhere you go. But everything about The Waldorf was exceptional! HIGHLY recommend. Their fries were also delicious. Perfectly seasoned and crispy. We also ordered the fried mushrooms which were pretty good! The service was quick and we were satisfied with that! The overall atmosphere inside is just kind of your average small town bar, but still child friendly. Nothing special, but it would be really cozy in the winter!

Three Blondes Brewing is a family-owned brewery in South Haven, founded by three blonde sisters. The brewery offers a casual dining atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating, serving quality craft brews and eclectic pub fare such as pizza, hamburgers, sandwiches, and shareable plates. The menu includes hand-crafted eats like Korean Brussels sprouts and braised beef alongside their 16 hand-crafted beers on tap.
Stumbled upon this amazing place on a Funday Sunday adventure. Three Blondes Brewing is off the highway on Phoenix Street and connected to a recreational sports shop. Warm, friendly, and inviting atmosphere for all ages, this place is a MUST TRY!!!! We were seated right away and told about specials. Our server was Sarah, she was friendly and attentive. Our food was spectacular! Lots of unique menu selections- it was hard to narrow down my choice! Salads, tots, handhelds, unique pizzas and entrees…. The chicken strips were amazing and so tender, one of the best tenders I’ve tried. French fries were crisp and fried to PERFECTION. SO. MANY. BBQ. SAUCE. CHOICES. !!!!!!!! 🤤 There are a lot of vegan and vegetarian selections. The shareable Mediterranean brussel sprouts were so delicious and unique- will definitely be ordering again. So many things I want to try next time I visit. Been told the menu rotates for seasonal foods and specials. Looking forward to new menu choices!!! The space is clean and open. Outside seating is also available with igloo(s), chairs, and tables. Clean restrooms. Family friendly. There are lots of vegetarian and vegan choices- OMG if you are vegetarian please try this place you will have to go back to try more yummy food. There is a large variety of beers and ciders on tap and also available to go.

Solid choice in the area for food and drink. Was looking for a place for the kids to run around a bit while we had a few local beers. Turns out, it's more of a restaurant that also brews its own beer than a brewery with some food options. We were sat down right away and they were looking to take our meal order fast. All good, just not the vibe we wanted on this visit. If you are looking for a place to grab lunch or dinner, go for it. If it's more of a sit and chill visit, probably not the right spot. Patio looked cool, the inside was nice, with a mini arcade upstairs. Beer selection was okay. The blonde was very good. There were some more themed brews like jalapeno and dill infused. Service was good and very friendly. Parking was easy.

My family and I stopped here on our way up to Ludington. We were excited to try someplace new and we love stopping at breweries to enjoy their laid-back vibe. While the patio and dining area are laid-back and enjoyable, the fact that the patio is NOT dog friendly did not sit well with us. We still enjoyed our beers and dinner but we had to rush since our pup was in the car (and I felt bad). We would have gladly stayed and enjoyed ourselves more, but couldn't keep him waiting. Upon further digging I found a FAQ section of their website that states they cannot have dogs on the patio due to code (I will now call before we stop anywhere next time). As I stated this location is nice, but only if you prefer to go without your pup. I have given them four stars due to being out of our first choice (Rubia) of beer, then the second choice (Trees and Seas) was not to our taste. Everyone enjoyed their food- with my 9yo being the exception of not liking the cheese sauce. Not sure if we will be back, but feel free to give it a try!

July 11 2025, we visited while we were camping (from Kentucky) and celebrating my sisters 4 year anniversary of beating ovarian cancer - The restaurant was ADORABLE. The food and beer were amazing. Lindsey was our server and she was incredible. Had such a genuinely kind personality and was so friendly. She also got my sister some of the lavender beer to try (and ended up being her favorite) before it was on the menu. My son loved it so much he asked that we come back and eat again before we left town. And … we did :) HIGHLY recommend .

If you haven't been here, just come. I held off for months and kept forgetting. The food was so good there was nothing left for a picture. You can smell fresh pizza when you walk in the door, and while it was pretty great, the other options were just as good. We got two flights and every beer was good at a minimum. A couple I would rate in my top 10. Just show up!

Really wanted a good breakfast and unfortunately, this wasn't it. Ordered biscuits and gravy with a side of 2 scrambled eggs and cheese. It was all together in the same bowl. The eggs were mush and I didn't want cheese on my biscuits. I ate maybe half. The eggs are from a box? Not good. The bacon was edible. My wife's oatmeal was okay. I ate a half of an English muffin. The smashed potatoes were few and average. Had high hopes, failed miserably. Cannot recommend-MVP

Dinner Service was Spectacular! 5 stars across the board, the food, the service and atmosphere were excellent! Greeted at the table with toasted bread and dipping oil. The hummas was delightful, the roasted peppers really elevated the starter, the pita was perfectly crisped! The Hangar steak was well balanced with the salad and carrots, plated beautifully! The show stopper of the evening was by far Korean BBQ Ribs! The flavor profile was exceptional! Felt like a journey with each bite! Hubby can't wait to come back and order it again!

Wow! From service to food, everything was great! My wife ordered the Chorizo Scramble from the menu, and I ordered one of the specials, Short Rib Benni. Generally, I am a much bigger breakfast food enthusiast than my wife, but from the first bite to the last, she raved about how delicious her meal was. This may have been the first time she loved her breakfast meal as much as I did. Summer was our server, and she was quick and friendly, and our interaction with the manager (I love giving positive feedback about our servers) was warm, welcoming, and appreciative. I would highly recommend stopping here for breakfast or lunch (breakfast options are served all day).

Phoenix Street on Broadway is such a great place to start your day. From classic breakfasts to more health conscious and diet friendly options, there is something for everyone person and preference. The BELT is the best if you want a breakfast item that is delicious and will keep you going all day. And by that, I mean you can split it, eat half, be stuffed, and eat the rest later. This is a great family restaurant.

Place was nice, service was prompt. I consider myself a biscuits and gravy aficionado and I've never had it served this way. The gravy was tasteless and the biscuits were already soggy when served. Do not recommend. My wife had the smashed potatoes and they were awesome. It was obvious that I'd chose poorly.

Went in on a very busy Saturday and dispite it taking 3+ tries to get my pancakes correct, we laughed and had a blast. Cool crew, family run, great food. We will be back.

Located at the crossroads of South Haven (but not downtown), PSoB is busy and pretty good. However, for a breakfast/lunch place open from 7AM to 2PM, they should specialize in the basics like fresh O.J., pure maple syrup and cinnamon rolls. They offer none of these. Menu is OK, not specializing in anything fab. We ordered the breakfast sandwich, very large with plenty of bacon. The egg white veggie scramble was unremarkable and served on a cold plate instead of a skillet. Jam is Smucker's packettes so you get the gist of this place. Overall, there are two decent breakfast places in South Haven: This one and Six Chicks and neither offers the extra touches. It would be nice to see them step up their game.

What sets this tavern apart is its lively entertainment schedule including live music, comedy shows, Trivia Nights, and special events like Guinness beer glass engraving. Additionally, guests can purchase BRT merchandise as a memento of their visit.
Nice downtown Tavern has a little bit of an Irish feel My Ruben was subpar, kind of bland deli meat style I wouldn’t get it again. In the past, I’ve had the Philly. It was good. I’ve also had the Italian beef, which is good. This time my girl had the Philly cheesesteak fries They were good little heavy on the extremely orange cheese for our liking, but they were good. We always enjoy our visit at the Black River Tavern. See you next time , the sidewalk patio is always a nice place to sit when the weather permits . Cheers.

We really enjoyed dinner here the other night. The hours are definitely minimal and there were a few things that I would give more feedback on like spoons for the dip and maybe a side with the sandwiches. I did see that there were some a la carte options. All in all we had a lovely meal and I think we got the best table there!

Overall, the tavern was great! An accumulation of slow food service, loud music, and numerous tvs going at once makes it more a bar than a restaurant. I had the garden salad with chicken breast and the chicken was probably the best restaurant chicken I've ever tasted! My husband had the tavern burger and said he'd order it again. The fries were hot and crunchy with minimal salt. That was my only complaint on the fries. My son's chicken tenders were good, but nothing special. The waiters and hostess were quick, but the food did not come out quickly. Oh, the wings were basic. No real issues on the wings, but I've had better.

Great view of the pier and lighthouse from the outside seating especially around sundown, quite a treat with the lighthouse a short half mile away. The gazpacho was very good and fresh especially with the tomato and red onion garnish. The fried Brussels sprouts were excellent, not very oily and the garlic parmesan topping was just right all at a very reasonable price for a resort area. Highly Recommended

Outdoor dog-friendly patio is why we chose this place on our first visit to South Haven. Staff was super friendly and efficient. And, location can not be beat!

Captain Lou's is a charming waterfront eatery that transforms into a lively nightlife spot after sunset. This South Haven staple has been serving up delectable seafood and refreshing cocktails for over 70 years. The friendly staff ensures quick service, even during busy times. With its picturesque location across the Dyckman Bridge, it's the perfect place to unwind with some cold drinks and delicious food while watching boats come in for the evening.
We found a seat immediately and were promptly greeted with menus and water. Our waitress was friendly and attentive without being annoying. The food came out in reasonable timing. We ordered the smoked salmon dip--it was good but the salmon is in large pieces. We thought it would be better shredded because the ratio of salmon to sauce was off. But it was still good. The perch was fresh and hot. We also had the fish tacos and shrimp tacos. Everything was very good. The scenery is beautiful.

Captain Lou’s in South Haven is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy great food, a laid-back atmosphere, and unbeatable views of the Black River. We stopped in after a day at the beach and were blown away by the friendly service, cold drinks, and fresh seafood. The perch basket was crispy and flavorful, and the shrimp tacos were perfectly seasoned. Sitting outside by the water with boats passing by created the perfect Michigan summer vibe. There’s live music on some nights, which adds to the festive, welcoming feel. Captain Lou’s strikes the perfect balance between casual and memorable — ideal for families, couples, or groups of friends. It’s become a tradition for us every time we visit South Haven. Highly recommend for a fun, relaxing, and delicious lakeside experience!

Small little bar place on the water. Outdoor seating. There isn't any nearby parking. We parked on the street across the bridge. The walk was okay. Watching the boats went by was nice. The food was okay. They were out of the beer my hubs wanted. I don't want to sound old school but when did waitresses stop wearing clothes to work? It's early in the day can we find a top and shorts? The world is changing i guess. Effort is lacking. They were setting up live music when we left. Overall it's an ok stop.

Great views while enjoying lunch at outside tables. Menu offers so many great choices it was hard to decide! The server was very helpful in narrowing down recommended/ popular items and offering suggestions based on personal preferences. Everything was delicious! Drinks were great! My salad was loaded with fresh local blueberries and was tasty and gigantic! Fish n chips were addictive. Sweet potato fries were gigantic portions and very good. I highly recommend this spot for a nice lunch outside if you want to enjoy the pleasant early fall weather near the water!👍

While on vacation in South Haven, we stopped in for lunch. Just my wife and I. We ordered the perch basket and the Manistee Mama. No drinks, just waters. We did notice they're in the middle of a remodel/expansion. They need it. Where we sat really had no views, and on the day we went was very hot. Completely understandable, considering 95° temp, but some better circulation of fans would go a long way. Seating is a little cramped. The service was very good. Prompt and courteous. That was nice. Twehe food was decent, the Manistee my wife liked. The fries we didn't like. The price is slightly high moderate. Not horrible for the location. I would try it again-MVP

Captain Lou’s is a total gem! The food was absolutely spectacular. The tacos were my favorite. The atmosphere is unbeatable with fresh lake air, a fun and lively vibe, and great views. Our server was kind, attentive, and quick, making us feel right at home. What really stood out was how family-friendly the whole place is. Our little ones were welcomed with smiles and had just as much fun as we did. This is the kind of spot that makes for a perfect day out — whether you’re grabbing a bite with the kids or hanging out with friends. Highly recommend Captain Lou’s — we’ll definitely be back!

Classic South Haven harbor spot! We stopped by at the end of the season and enjoyed a fun, casual evening waterside — definitely more about the atmosphere than fine dining, but still a great experience. We ordered one of Captain Lou’s famous perch baskets and a shrimp basket, starting off with the spicy cheese curds (our server warned us they were spicy — and they were, but delicious!). They were out of several beers on the menu, but we eventually found something we liked. The perch was excellent — perfectly cooked with a generous portion. The shrimp and fries basket was good but more standard, with fries cooked perfectly and shrimp just a touch overdone. The cocktail sauce was excellent, and the staff were friendly and efficient. All in all, a great local spot for relaxed harbor vibes, tasty fish, and good service

We had 5 people and everyone loved their food and our server Jeremy was literally one of the best waiters we've ever had. We go out to dinner a lot! Jeremy was very entertaining. Great suggestions, funny and made sure everyone had a great evening. He was elegant on how he served but then funny at the right moments. Great food and great service in a nice cozy restaurant. I can't understand how this place wasn't 5 stars rated. They deserve to be 5 stars!!

High-end Italian cuisine in a cozy, intimate atmosphere. Excellent service and friendly staff. I highly recommend the potato soup! The bread and season oil and cheese dip was very good. Our particular dinner was the lasagna, but as it was towards the end of the day, it came out over-cooked, but the manager comped it for us, so kudos there. The wait staff is very friendly and will do all they can to provide you with the best experience possible (if you get Serene, you hit gold). Portions are generous and large enough to split for those with smaller appetites. Prices are up there, but you get what you pay for. Worth a trip back!

The place is nice and cozy with a good vibe. The pan fish and the calamari were really good, but the pizza was not as expected. The pizza was similar to the frozen pizza you get from the supermarket. The service was super slow, we waited from an hour and half for our food, and the waitress apologized several times. The waitress was very nice, helpful, and gentle but they should at least warn people about the waiting time. I suggest asking them about time before entering.

I made a reservation at Tello while visiting a small town, anticipating difficulty getting a table for our group of five. Many restaurants in the area didn’t take reservations, so I booked in advance to be safe. In hindsight, it wasn’t necessary—the restaurant was nearly empty when we arrived. Unfortunately, the experience was underwhelming. Service was painfully slow, and our waiter was so awkward that it made everyone at the table uncomfortable. The bread was a promising start, but the accompanying oil tasted off—definitely not the quality you’d expect from extra virgin olive oil. When the food finally arrived, it was hit or miss. The standout was the Bolognese, which was rich, tender, and flavorful—truly well done. The Margherita pizza, however, was completely average. The butternut squash ravioli had potential but was overwhelmed by the taste of red bell pepper in the filling and was drowning in flavorless oil. It was just okay. The chicken Caesar salad was the biggest miss—overloaded with oregano or a similar herb that coated your mouth and made it unpleasant to eat. My friend couldn’t finish it. To top it off, the soda was flat, and service was so slow we didn’t bother asking for a replacement. Overall, the experience ranged from disappointing to mediocre. Unless you’re craving the Bolognese and have time to spare, I wouldn’t recommend going out of your way to dine here.

We were a group of 4 in a Saturday night. Not busy at all. The ambiance was amazing but the service and food was not. Our waitress came to the table and got our drink orders and only gave 2 of us water. She tried memorizing our order but that was a fail. We all ordered side salads to start.When our main entrees she didn’t bother to clear them prior too and we had to ask her to take the empty plates. I ordered the Marquita pizza and it was just like frozen pizza. The chicken Marsala was good but the broccolini was so hard I couldn’t eat it. We will find another Italian restaurant to try.

The server was great but the food not so much! Stale chips!- their kettle chips were super stale. They do not make these fresh daily they were gross. My Hamburger was basically raw. I couldn’t even force myself to eat it so my boyfriend finished it. Even he said yeah that’s pretty raw! And he likes his rare. But the service was good and the drinks tasted good. I did like that you could try the oysters and just pay for them individually. We got 2 of each kind (3kinds). It was fun to sample them. We had a good view! The friends good will was setting by sail.

What Happened to this place? Did it come under new ownership? We come here every year and this year the drinks were horrible. Your homemade sour mix for the Long Island iced teas taste like crushed baby aspirin. We used to love these drinks and now they taste very gross. We tried it twice and both times on two different days. I hope you go back to the old recipe. The lobster sandwich filling was good, but the bread was stale. The kettle chips were all crushed and small pieces and the yellow jacket bees on the river boat were horrific. You do know you can set traps for them don’t you? Lastly, every year that we would come to the bar and the river boat at the same time of year is normally packed. However this year we were the only people sitting at the bar at 5 PM , which goes to show other people are feeling the same way . We came back for a second try on the river boat and there was no one there at 6 PM.

I read the reviews. We're locals and hadn't been in quite awhile. One thing that stuck out to me, good or bad review, the owner responded! I knew they care about their food, drinks, and business. So glad we went because EVERYTHING was great! Sara, our server was awesome! Kind, interesting, fun, efficient! The runner brought the food quickly with a smile. The drinks were cold, the shrimp tacos were great, the perch basket was too, the fruit cup was well worth the $3 upgrade, the atmosphere was a little bit of paradise with music and the view! We'll be back!! Kind of amazing it was this good as old as Idler is, being waterfront, and at 6:15 on a Friday in August (BTW the host got the two of us in immediately)!

If you’re going to up-charge $1 to sub chips for REDSKIN POTATOES….I should get exactly that. Instead, I was met with an Idaho potato, baked and smashed into the bowl. It also took an hour and 10min to get a pulled pork sandwich, and a side Caesar salad.

Atmosphere was great, clean place nicely decorated. Skinny margarita had no sweet element at all, just $15 of tart. Mocktail was low effort, basically Mango juice with jalapeno. The food was all solid but lacked salt. Honest review is 3.5 stars, not a bad place, good service but food and drink need a little bit of work. They've got a lot right but need a little bit of help to get over the edge from good to great. The pickled carrots and picko were way good!

Let me set the scene: I was vacationing in South Haven with a small group of friends. We were looking for a traditional Mexican restaurant to dine at for lunch, and we found Su Casa. We thought "Oh, they have some good reviews! Let's check it out." We enter the restaurant, which was clean, welcoming, and vibrant. We were greeted upon arrival by the bartender. Our server came, introduced himself, and quickly took our drinks orders. Once he came back, we had decided on the House made Chips and Salsa to start us off. This is where our experience began to decline. The chips were overcooked, and under salted. The salsa options were served in small sauce cups and not your typical wide-rimmed salsa bowl. Mind you, it cost $7 for runny salsa, bland pico, and a few slices of pickled carrots. We thought to put this unappetizing appetizer behind us and order entrees. I cannot give you the exact dishes everyone in my group ordered, but none of us were pleased with our meals. The meats were dry and bland, the rice was undercooked, and the tortillas were stiff and flaky. To say I was disappointed in this experience would be an understatement. While I can appreciate a great staff with a fun atmosphere, I would not be able to recommend the food at this establishment which is a shame because I feel it held so much potential.

In addition to its convenient location by the river, it also provides access to a dock for those arriving by boat. However, it is worth noting that finding nearby parking can be challenging for guests who choose to drive.
I had a great time visiting the restaurant with my sister. We both had fish and it was great. We were here on Sunday July 5th and the whole town was packed. After a little wait we got a great table and great service. There is a parking lot right across the entrance, which was very convinent. The one down side was that the restroom was out of order, but we survived.

Cool setting. Right in the water, accessible from a boardwalk that gives it an extra pizazz. If you are on the river side you get a great view of the marina and the ships coming through. Not as nice on the other. Food was okay. Got the walleye sandwich and wasn't blown away. Burger was pretty good. The nachos were solid. Beer selection was a little lacking, or at least the draft selection. Figured they would have more local options.

I was impressed with how quickly I was served by the bartender and how friendly she was but I was disappointed in the quality of the drinks. I like sweet tasting drinks and ordered the strawberry shoreline that had vodka in it and the sweeteners they used tasted very cheap and extremely artificial. Also, I expected the drink to have more alcohol in it for being the price of $12. I wasn’t even buzzed and 90% of the cup was filled with ice and 3 half cut strawberries. Aesthetically it wasn’t pleasing to the eye either. It looked more like a strawberry fruit water. On the other hand I really liked their frozen drinks. I got the rum runner which was a frozen blend of strawberries and bananas and it had an orange peel on the side. It tasted sweet and like there wasn’t any alcohol in it. I definitely thought I would have been buzzed after ordering my second drink here but I felt completely sober which was disappointing since I ordered another $12 drink. The view and atmosphere of this place is amazing to watch the boats go by and have people wave at you. But I was disappointed in the quality of the drinks. This place has the potential to be so much more but it’s still lacking.

The cafe boasts a clean and welcoming interior where visitors can savor items like croissant breakfast sandwiches and savory danishes.
Great little cafe with delicious quiche fresh out of the oven along with other pastries. The Spinach Lorraine quiche was delicious and crispy at the edges- highly recommended! My (plain) cinnamon bun was okay- it was super fresh- but I wish it had a more intensity from the cinnamon (my personal preference w/ cinnamon though)... I did not see the pecan cinnamon roll everyone has mentioned. A long line formed after I ordered my food- and did not slow down for nearly 30 minutes straight. Very popular spot with locals and visitors! There's a handy little microwave with little plates and wrapped forks/knives/spoons, straws, etc off to the side if you want to reheat/ heat up your pastries. They serve Starbucks coffee, expertly made by the friendly staff which was nice since you know what to expect with the drink menu. Music was a bit on the loud side but fine. Free parking available on the street.

They were friendly enough, but the quality of the food just wasn't there. First of all, they sell Starbucks brand coffee, not their own brew so keep that in mind. Also the chai was very watered down and bland. Finally, the cinnamon rolls... They were mediocre at best. They had the consistency of a dinner roll and you had to heat it up yourself. There was nothing terrible, but it wasn't worth the hype. I'd liken it to a semi decent airport cafe.

I LOVE this place!! The quiche is delicious! I also had the cinnamon roll(s).. like 3 of them -in 3 days. . My vanilla soy latte was outstanding! Rachel is great! The people working there are super friendly and welcoming! I wish there was 1 in Chicago suburbs! It was my favorite in all of South Haven!!

Great location near the public beach, across from the bed and breakfast where we stayed recently. We enjoyed the cinnamon rolls and Danish (cherry and blueberry). There's a small eat in area but several outdoor picnic tables provide space to devour your purchase. The line of customers forms prior to opening to get first choice!

I thought I was supporting a local small business. It's just a starbucks in disguise. It's just a warning to anyone actively boycotting starbucks. The one positive note was that the staff was friendly.

One of my favorite early morning cafes in the area. I stop in every weekend I’m in town and this place is very consistent. It’s by no means a quick stop and shop. I get the biltmore and two cherry danish for the kids every single time. They are always excellent.

The Lodge in South Haven is a hidden gem that offers a warm and inviting small-town atmosphere, making visitors feel right at home. The charming outdoor seating area provides a laid-back vibe to enjoy their mouthwatering bar & grill food. Known for winning the chili competition at the Ice Breaker festival, their white chicken chili with deep-fried saltines is a must-try. Additionally, their smoked salmon dip, caramelized onion dip, and crispy broasted chicken are highly recommended.
This Lodge is definitely worth a visit or two. Absolutely delicious! I tried the BBLT with turkey and cheese and it doesn’t disappoint. The chips are good but I also tried the fries and they were excellent as well. Service was amazing and Daniel was the one who served us and was fantastic. Made sure we had a great experience and that we did. Atmosphere was cool with the hunters style decor. Definitely recommend this gem and will be back to try something different.

The food is great but be advised, most meals do not come with a side, and those that do come with chips. While chips are ok, they aren’t exactly filling, so expect to pay $4+ extra per meal for a real side dish. For two, with just water, our bill came out to be just shy of $40. Pretty expensive for elevated bar food. We enjoyed our meals though and likely will return, but won’t order sides in the future.

This is a composite of two visits. My first stop was for a burger and fries, and although it looked the part, the burger was a very average 6/10 for me. The fries were good and the service/atmosphere were good. The SECOND try was the chicken and waffles... wow, 8.7/10. The chicken, crispy on the outside, juicy and tender inside. The waffle was sweet and delicious. The blueberry jam was wonderful and the fries were somehow better than last time. Would like to try the chicken amd potatoes as well, but that's for trip #3. Will return and definitely recommend.

We went to The Lodge for lunch. In the mood for burgers. They advertised, smash burgers, and sounded good to us. I ordered The Cure, and my wife ordered a kids' cheeseburger because they didn't offer a single on the menu. Both of us "upcharged" to fries over kettle chips. One water and one iced tea. The burgers are not what we consider smash burgers, but they were fine. It seems like a term that is used often and covers different types of burgers. Overall on a 10 scale, I'd go 5.5/6 out of 10. Be nice to offer a single burger, didn't like the $3 upcharge for fries either. The service was fine, no issues there. Might be open to try again. Probably not. Your call-MVP

I was looking for a local spot with great food and hit the jackpot! The onion rings were the best I have ever had! The pretzel and beer cheese were delightful, the pretzel texture was superb. Fried pickles had a bite back. Spinach dip was so good. Everyone was happy with their dishes. I had the chicken and waffles, sweet and savory was spot on. Would highly recommend! I even bought a shirt!

This is by far the best restaurant we have tried during our multiple visits to South Haven. Our table had the chicken dumpling soup, broiled chicken tenders, spicy chicken sandwich with blueberry sauce, and Mac and cheese. Everything was honestly delicious and the food came out very quickly. Our server was attentive and kind, and everything was also very clean. Will definitely be back in the future!

Los Ranchos is an excellent choice for a first date or a family outing, offering a wide variety of options to satisfy even the most selective eaters. The drinks are exceptional and the service is top-notch, accommodating large groups without reservations. It's unclear if reservations are necessary, but regardless, the restaurant efficiently seats customers and takes orders with remarkable speed. The salsa deserves special recognition as it surpasses expectations.
Had a wonderful family dinner here while visiting the South Haven beaches. Absolutely delicious food, great ambiance, and very polite staff. Plenty of parking available too. Highly recommend!

Stopped in on a Friday night for the first time, ordered Nachos Supreme with jalapeños and an unsweetened iced tea. The chips and salsa were ok, as previously mentioned by other reviews they are not made in-house and are thicker. The salsa was different, couldn’t put my finger on what is was. Nachos arrived very fast. Looked delicious but once started eating them there was no flavor. The beef and chicken has no seasoning, lettuce flavor overpowered the chicken flavor. Also the other pictures shows all the liquid at the bottom, i don’t like that for my nachos, bottom half of the nachos were soggy. Glad i asked for jalapeños because they had flavor. Overall wouldn’t order them again. Service was ok, not overly friendly. Probably won’t be back with other options in the area. Total bill with 15% tip was $22. The $4 ice tea was a surprise.

Located in South Haven, Michigan, this Mexican restaurant brought flavor and texture straight from the grill. Great meals are served here! The food was a hit! I love the multicolored chips with the delicious salsa. The creamed spinash and tacos had a ton of flavor as well. All seasoned right, brought to the table hot and in a timely manner. Really good! The service was appreciated! Very kind staff who worked hard to serve their customers. Our water cups stayed full, and the service was great! The atmosphere was memorable. The environment was lively.

I’m gonna give it three stars I don’t know if it necessarily deserves this, but the food was good in the atmosphere was good. My bad part was the service. The guy sat us he gave us. Our drinks took our order and then disappeared. My drink was empty for a good 15 too 20 minutes while the food was being prepared he actually never even came back. Someone else came back with the food and gave it to us and then I guess she took over a server because she was the one that refilled my drink. I would really love to give this place five stars, but because of the service that we got, I couldn’t do it.

Golden Brown Bakery, Inc. is a charming 80-seat cafe located in South Haven, offering a delightful selection of freshly baked goods and full breakfast options. Situated by the Lake Michigan waterfront, this small-town bakery uses local cherries and blueberries in many of their delicious treats. While some changes have been made to the ordering process and menu items, visitors still rave about the warm and delicious French toast, flavorful hashbrowns, and mouthwatering corned beef hash.
Such a wonderful iconic piece of South Haven history. Everything is always absolutely delicious and the staff are so incredibly friendly.

My favorites are chocolate donuts, biscuits and gravy, and soft cinnamon donuts. If this was baseball, the donuts would clearly be a homerun! The service is always amazing! The staff is always kind!

Hot dog restaurant
Chomp Gourmet Hot Dogs is a seasonal walk-up-to-the-window joint that offers a variety of delicious hot dog options, including the opportunity to customize your own. Despite its affordable prices, the hot dogs are described as very filling and worth every dollar spent. Customers praise the flavorful toppings and tender dogs, with one even claiming it's the best they've ever had outside of ball games. The option to build your own hot dog is particularly popular among visitors, who appreciate the diverse selection available.
Hands down the cheapest but best lunch you can get in the entire town. The dogs taste great, there's tons of flavor piled on to each taste missile, and from ordering to food in hand isn't longer than a few minutes. Oooonly down side is that there is no where around the place to sit and eat. There was a family of five sitting on the ground when we got there. We just took our dogs and ate them back in our car. Petition the town to turn a few of those spots in front of the restaurant into benches!

This is a walk-up-to-the-window hot dog joint open seasonally. They have a number of good options including a "craft your own." The dogs were good, and that's saying something from a guy who lives and breathes Chicago style. I got the Godfather. Dog was tender and toppings were spot on. It gets 4 stars only because of no seating and seasonal availability. Its a great quick bite with good rich flavors and affordable prices. Check it out!

This place is a perfect grab- n- go hotdog joint, and we'll worth it. Price is worth it all day to me. I cant go without getting my pups a 100% beef hotdog plain. They are very generous with toppings and the buns are the BEST! No dry buns, super soft! I usually grab 2 because I can't decide. Shout out to plain Jane, Detroit Coney, CYO(create your own). They have 9 choices plus, dog of the week(chef special) so glad I found this place. I will be a repeat For Sure! 😋

Very odd experience. I went 2 days in a row with 2 other people. Day 1, we all got small, melted cups of ice cream. Day 2, we got much bigger servings because we ordered cones. On day 2, we also picked out 2 shirts, no prices shown. Total was 2 cents from $100....... Must have to be from SoHa to understand their servings and prices. Also, the cotton candy is the same recipe as another ice cream shop in MI. Thought that was strange.

Great stop in S Haven. The ice cream was A+. I loved the hard scooped chocolate malted. Lines back up under the tent. 2 order windows and a pick up window to the side. Seating is basically just picnic tables on the edge of the parking lot. That is my only knock on the place...but its a big shortcoming for a place this popular and crowded. Create a unique, dedicated seating area and Sherman's is instantly 5 stars

Incredible ice cream! The service was fast and the staff were so nice. We had a huge order of over 20 people and the team did a fantastic job handling the order with no errors. While I was not a fan of the location being next to a busy road, I think the barrier could be extended or closed off to make the ordering area a little safer for kids. The location is prime between the Jellystone resort and the lake though. One thing to be aware is that the portions are massive! I ordered the yellow cake batter and it was absolutely delicious. We will be returning the next time we are in the area.

This was a tough call for me. I know this is a very popular place and I wanted to like it…. however, I had a bothersome service issue that I’m having a hard time looking past. The upside is that the ice cream was good and the service for everybody, but me, was fast. The downside is that the ice cream is way overpriced, but more importantly, I had a service issue that I was unhappy with. After my order had been taken, I had observed several people that were in line behind me were being served. I also noticed that they had been given a fob that lit up when their order was supposed to be ready. After watching several people get served ahead of me, I finally asked, “ was I supposed to receive one of those?” I was told not necessarily. I watched what I realized was my order being given to somebody behind me in line…. His wife realized what was going on and made it clear that when she was handed her stuff with a duplicate item, which would’ve been mine in replacement of the item initially given to her husband, the staff told her that they couldn’t take back any mistakes and gave her husband the second ice cream that was supposed to be mine. Now I was left watching somebody who had two ice creams and I had none. Through a few more comedy of errors I finally got my ice cream … somewhere between 10 to 20 people behind me were served first and I was a bit frustrated to say the least. No apologies from the staff for the miscommunication on their part, just par for the course…..I guess. Slightly better, communication, and better handling of the overall situation and I probably would’ve given them four stars, but they really drop the ball at every opportunity that a correction could’ve been made. I’m not eager to go back

Sophie's Steakhouse & Bar is a hidden gem in the area, offering excellent food and service. The upscale dining spot provides generous portions of delicious dishes, such as stuffed mushrooms, chicken, and steak. The atmosphere is more upscale than expected, with great service from friendly staff members. Customers have praised the tender and perfectly cooked Delmonico steak as well as the mouthwatering burger topped with flavorful bacon and cheddar.
Sophie's Steakhouse was such a great choice before the fireworks! I brought my family and we had the best time. The vibe was cozy and welcoming, and the staff made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The food was amazing. Our steaks were cooked perfectly so juicy and full of flavor!! The sides were just as good. We couldn't get enough of the crabbed stuffed mushrooms and carrot cake !! Everyone at the table was happy and enjoying their meals, which made me really happy. As a father and husband, I love to see my family smile!! Dinner was relaxed, the service was quick, and we left feeling full and excited to catch the fireworks. It all came together so nicely. If you're thinking about trying Sophie's, do it. Great food, great people, and a really good time. We'll definitely be back!
Austin N — Google review
Very disappointed. I really hoped that some of the reviews were just exaggerated but nope. We had the Delmonico Steak $49 & the 2 lobster tails $36. Lobster was cooked perfectly. 1) The menu had only 4 steak choices. Filet Mignon, Kansas City Strip, NY Strip and Delmonico. Kansas City strip and NY strip are the same steak, only exception Kansas city is bone-in and the NY strip is boneless. Both are cut from the t-bone. So why do they have both? Where is a sirloin , Porterhouse or plain ribeye? I love sirloin but they did not serve it. 2) No seasoning on the steak other than chargrilled flavor. A little enhancers would be great like a little butter and garlic. 3) No steak sauce served. Some people like to eat their steak with and/or without steak sauce. I would eat half without and then with steak sauce. 4) Only serve 2 salad dressings - blue cheese or ceasar. I could not believe it! Especially when most people prefer ranch, italian or balsmic. 5) I sent my first salad back due to so many slimy nasty pieces of lettuce. They brought me another one but there were several bad pieces of lettuce in it as well. The salad was only lettuce, a few cherry tomatoes cut in half and onions. No cheese or croutons. You can see picture below. This is the first presentation of your meal and I would think you would not want the salad or appetizer to have issues. Overall pretty disappointed in this restaurant. Probably won't go back. The service was almost too good. Loved our waitress but she was at the table almost too often and grabbing dishes before we were ready for them to be picked up. But she was a great waitress.

We came here to celebrate our friend getting married. We wanted a nice place to eat dinner and made a reservation for 9 people. We waited over an hour and 30 minutes until we finally got our food. There was a hair in our food and some of it was cold. We talked to the manager more than once about our service. We got our check back and asked for some kind of compensation for the awful service and the manager laughed and asked what we suggested.

SAVE YOUR MONEY. Came from chicago for our 2 year anniversary. Wanted something a little nice for our dinner and decided on Sophie’s. Coming from a city with some of the best food and steakhouses in america, our expectations were grounded, but what we experienced doesn’t even happen at McDonalds. We came in for our 715 appointment at 710. Sat down promptly, and then nothing. Took 10 minutes for us to be recognized again for waters on our table. Multiple servers looked at us and looked away, not even checking in. Nearly 30 minutes later we walked out, nothing put in as an order. SAVE YOUR MONEY. If you expect to be looked at as a ghost, then go to Sophie’s. Embarrassingly unacceptable to be the only “steakhouse” in South Haven. Photos for proof of us being there with time stamps (for you non believers)

Kilwin's is a traditional store that specializes in selling chocolates, sweets, and fudge. They also offer their own unique ice cream flavors which are highly enjoyable. However, one downside of this place is the lack of a visible list of available ice cream flavors. Instead, they have a framed piece of paper on the counter that lists all the varieties they make, even though not all of them may be currently available.

The ice cream tasted great, but we won't be back due to egregious pricing. We ordered 3 small dishes for my wife, 6-year old, and 2- year old, and a waffle cone for myself. Total at checkout was $37.58 and my jaw dropped. It tainted what was otherwise a great time out with the family. As indicated by similar recurring reviews, this is a known issue.

They got me once but they won't get me again. $8 for one scoop of ice cream they don't have the ice cream prices on the wall. You don't see how much it cost until you get to the counter.. Go to Sherman's two doors down much cheaper and in the same ice cream. I should have checked Sherman's first.

I'm not one to write bad reviews or reviews at all but the entire staff was incredibly rude to my group. Only one person in my group was able to order, and when we tried to explain that we were still ordering, we were rushed to the check out. When we explained to the person cashing us out what happened, the girl at the register next to us gave us an attitude. As someone in customer service, I understand being busy and overwhelmed but being rude to customers and not letting people order is actually insane.

OMG talk about overpriced ice cream three scoops people it cost $19.95. Yes the ice cream is good and yes, they are well known and they have a good name but there is no reason to have an ice cream costing 20 bucks for three scoops. To be honest, I would not go there again especially because of the pricing I do understand everything is getting more expensive but at the end of the day this is ice cream I mind you. We didn’t even get the waffles cones we got a cup so to repeat a cup with three scoops in it was almost 20 bucks.

I ordered a hot fudge sundae- with ONE scoop of oreo icecream/hot fudge/ whip cream. It cost almost $14.00. Also the hot fudge wasn't hot but tasted like wax. What a rip off!!! Will never eat icecream there again, in South Haven!!!!! Had better at other places.

My large family ordered pizza here last week and it was not what I would consider restaurant quality pizza… maybe they were just having an ‘off’ night and had they refunded my parents or offered to remake the order I wouldn’t say anything but they did not… all of our pizzas were burnt and it wasn’t appealing at all. I’m not one to complain but seriously do better!

If you’re considering ordering this pizza.. Let me save you the time. PLEASE DON’T!! This pizza was sloppy & not good. Bread sticks were burnt. We ended up throwing this away. There were 7 people in my party and not a single person could justify nor bare after tasting this pizza. It literally looked like someone threw up on this BBQ pizza.

I’m not going to lie. This pizza was pretty awful. My 5 year old niece said 10 👎🏼. Crust is chewy. Margharita pizza is not like other places fyi. Sauce is mid. We got three different pizzas for 8 people and no one liked it 😭.

I don't often write reviews, but felt compelled to say that this ranks as the worst pizza I have ever had! We didn't order anything fancy just pepperoni and green pepper, but it was about as thin as a piece of paper and had absolutely no flavor, cheese didn't even go all the way to edges. Side salad was pretty sorry too.
Debbie C — Google review
Just being honest, this is the worst pizza my family has ever had and we don’t agree on much haha. It’s thin, so chewy, and frankly we threw most of it out. My only hope is that it doesn’t come up later tonight so I have to taste it again. If you’re from chicago- you might as well eat grass because this is awful and has nothing on a good ole home run inn frozen pizza. 0/10 don’t recommend!

My family ordered a huge amount of food. We god barely any toppings on our pizzas, no spinach on our garlic bread that we paid extra for, one of our pizzas wasn't even cut! I ordered a 16.00 Greek salad and got 5 olives, no dressing, and barely any other toppings. Not a good experience. The pics don't look like the real pizza at all!!! Very over priced food

Arrived when we were told pizza would be ready. Waited 30 minutes for staff to realize they forgot to make one of the pizzas They were more concerned with their Bibgy than getting orders out.

Basically a dump. Overpriced frozen food put through a pizza oven level. Served on Styrofoam plates. The $4 1/2lb of fries was actually 34 fries (we counted, it fed one child), that's 13 cents per fry. I called them on it and they just lied about it. They don't have prices on their in store menu either, which is sketchy. Decided to do a little experiment on how many fries and how many pounds a McDonald's large fry is, which cost $3.49. There are 102 fries and it weighs .35 lbs. More than double the fries and 2/3 of the weight. Their advertisement of .5lbs of fries is an out and out lie.

Guys come on how is this acceptable to sell? I ordered the small nachos for $10 and they are nothing more than a pile of tortilla chips with shredded cheese melted/hardened on top. I mean I've made better prepared nachos in the microwave when I was 7. The cheese gets tough almost immediately, the ground beef was flavorless, and the chips were stale. For $10 this is extremely disappointing. I mean I get it, if people buy it, why change it? But seriously just having a cheese sauce on these instead of melting shredded cheese would make these 3x as good. My friend got a cordon bleu sub and said it was pretty good so I guess there's that. For the same price range Admiral Jacks has, on the flip side, some of the best nachos I've had. Please make these better or take them off the menu, really not cool.

Went here on a Sunday after church, It was pretty busy so we ended up waiting about 45 minutes to get seated. I was excited because of the reviews on Google and it looked pretty busy so I was hoping for really good experience at least with the food, I ordered biscuits and gravy with egg on top. I got two eggshells on my eggs, hair on my utensil and too much pepper on my biscuits and gravy this is a comfort food for me so it was disappointing The hostess was really young girl, and she wasn’t very friendly, but our waitress was.

Nestled in the heart of VanBuren County, The Groovin' Grove is a delightful gem that invites you to embrace cozy connections this winter. With its charming retro ambiance featuring nostalgic games like LightBrite and Mr. & Mrs. Potato Head, it’s a perfect spot for some fun-filled memories. Enjoy sing-alongs with classic tunes at nearby beaches or snuggle up with an afghan reminiscent of Grandma's couch if the chill sets in.
What a cool place this is. The large amount of retro knickknacks and the rest of the place’s style really gives the Groovin’ Grove a unique atmosphere I cannot recommend enough. I enjoyed several cocktails while listening to their live music, and both the drinks and service were great. I’m definitely recommending this place to my family and friends. It’s like a cool little hangout spot off the beaten trail, and it’s worth the effort to travel to. I’ll definitely be back.

We had a great time - live music, delicious food and the best Lavender Lemonade I have ever had. Even came with a sprig of Lavender in it! When arriving, it is a little intimidating as there are no windows and it's very "closed" looking. But the inside is absolutely incredible! When we arrived, there was no seating, but the owner went above and beyond and got seats from the back for us with a small table so we could stay and enjoy the music and drinks. It was packed and she didn't have to do that, but we really appreciated it. We are so excited that this is here and are looking forward to making this a regular spot for date night. Note: 21 and up only. (We have kids but appreciated the atmosphere and noise level that wouldn't be achieved if there were kids.)

Our shining star waitress was Carley L. and she's definitely a great asset to your restaurant! Very polite, always smiling and very attentive and speedy with our requests. The drinks were all very tasty. I tried the Aperol Spritz, Something sweet Raspberry and Something sweet blueberry. The appetizer was the goat cheese balls and they were very decadent. Both dinners, the Walleye and Salmon were absolutely the best in South Haven hands down! The atmosphere is very welcoming with a racing theme and the lighting was exquisite as well. They have corn hole set up outside to occupy the children, "Great idea"! Everything about this place is 5 star and I will definitely be returning to try more tasty options. Keep up the great work y'all and give Carley a raise, it's well deserved for going above and beyond to make sure all customers leave with a smile!

I visited this spot with three friends, and overall, we had a fun night out with a few hiccups along the way. My friends each ordered drinks—a Long Island, a lavender mojito, and a Somethin' Sweet—and all of them said their drinks were tasty. We started with the onion petal appetizer, which came in a generous basket and was really good—crispy and flavorful. For our main courses, we tried a variety: Chicken Tikka Masala, the Pulled Pork Sammie, the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich, and the Gastropub Burger, which was mine. Everyone seemed happy with their meals, and both the regular and sweet potato fries were really good, but unfortunately, my burger came out pink even though I asked for it well-done. I only ended up eating half. Thankfully, our server Jose was quick to step in—he spoke with the manager and had it taken off the bill, which I really appreciated. Jose was honestly the highlight of the visit. Despite only being on his own for two days after just one day of training, he was friendly, attentive, and kept us laughing the whole time. Even with some other minor issues—like dirty silverware, no slushies, and a shortage of small plates—his great attitude made the experience much more enjoyable.

This was the best chicken fried rice I have had in a very long time. The guy working went and made it fresh. There were bean sprouts and green onion.

We were seated directly in front of the giant air conditioning unit. There were 2 booths empty, but dirty. When I asked if we could move to the booth because we didn’t want to sit under the air unit, I was told we had to stand outside since there were no clean tables!!! Then she made NO attempt to clear the tables! So we were “ banished” to the outdoors because we didn’t want to sit and freeze during our breakfast, not to mention that our food would have been cold within minutes! It is blowing full force , straight on this table and it is a giant industrial wall unit!! This is ridiculous! Then to be treated as if we were wrong to ask!! In MY many years as a server, I would have said “ yes, of course, let me clear that table off.” If busy, I would have said “ give me just a second to do.,.” Instead we were told , when asked nicely if we could move out from under the air conditioning unit, “!Well, then you have to go outside and stand until we can get a table cleaned!” You lost my business, and NOT just mine, but I plan on sharing this review on every source, such as google, yelp, etc…. I am also a neuromuscular therapist in the area, with many patients, and I will be spreading the word on the poor service and the unprofessional way we were treated!

I stumbled upon this gem of a produce store while passing by, and I’m so glad I listened to my gut feeling to stop in! The inviting parking and the sight of fresh produce outside immediately drew me in. I picked up some small potatoes, sweet corn, and fresh blueberries, and I can honestly say they taste just like home-grown. The green beans were a steal at just $2.00 a pound, and they were incredibly fresh. I cooked everything on the grill, and we enjoyed a nutrient-packed, refreshing meal. I wish I had this type of produce available in my city. I’m definitely coming back tomorrow for more green beans! Highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.

The quality of the food was subpar, leaving much to be desired in terms of taste and presentation. However, what truly alarmed me was the blatant disregard for sanitation practices observed throughout my visit. As I watched the staff members handle the food and salad bar without wearing gloves, I couldn't help but feel uneasy about the cleanliness of the establishment. The sight of them wiping down the surfaces with what appeared to be dirty rags from the kitchen only compounded my concerns. It was clear that basic hygiene standards were not being met, posing a serious risk to the health and safety of patrons. Overall, my experience at the China Buffet was marred by both the lackluster food quality and the alarming lapses in sanitation. It's deeply concerning to witness such negligence in a restaurant setting, and I would hesitate to recommend this establishment to anyone. Management must take immediate action to address these issues and prioritize the health and well-being of their customers. Until significant improvements are made, dining at the China Buffet remains a risk not worth taking.

I stopped in at the China Buffet in South Haven and really enjoyed the experience. The food was solid — I’d give it four stars. Good variety and everything was fresh. What really stood out, though, was the service and atmosphere. The staff was attentive and friendly, and the place had a welcoming vibe that made the meal even better. That part deserves five stars. Overall, a great spot if you’re in South Haven and looking for a good buffet.

Food was dry, stuck to the pan and others crusted over. The lettuce was rotten. I challenge any of the staff to fix a salad and eat it. I can't imagine them eating the majority of the food we found on the buffet. The ham was good.

This is a hidden gem! The building isn't the nicest but the quality of the food MORE than made up for it. Went on a Sunday around 430 and it was slammed as to be expected. Staff struggled to maintain the buffet and they were clearly understaffed but the employees were hustling and working extremely hard despite their adversities. I highly recommend this place if you are craving the stereotypical Chinese food found on buffets. Oh, and they also had crawfish which was surprising and it was actually very good.

We ordered takeout and it was delicious. Egg rolls and sesame chicken were the highlights, but the fried rice, sesame tofu and cashew chicken were also hits. Order was prepared quickly and completely accurate. Large portion sizes. My only recommendation is having tofu as an option for some main dishes (sweet and sour, lo mein, chow mein, etc) - I wasn't able to order those online.

nice little local coffee shop. it’s got a nice central location, and it’s not too far from the lake. interior is very cute, i liked the theming, and the staff were very nice. prices are fair and the coffee was tasty. muffins could have been better but were still fine. nice little place to stop by if you’re in the mood for a drink and a sit.

One thing about me is, I love sipping on a good cup of coffee. As my girlfriend and I made our last stops in South Haven before heading back to Chicago, we knew we wanted to grab some coffee. We found this coffee shop mixed in with all of the shops in the area and were happy to stop in. The vibe was pretty chill, and the barista was friendly and helpful. I ordered a regular latte and my girl got the Chai Tea. All in all our drinks were good and got the job done. We were both satisfied with our purchase. We’ll have to stop back in when we’re back in South Haven again.

Very nice little independent coffee shop. Spacious old fashioned interior with wooden floors and chill music. My small latte had two shots of espresso and was tasty and very reasonably priced. There are a couple of autographed photos of Star Trek cast members hanging on the wall along with a number of other sci-fi works of art, in keeping with the flying saucer theme.

We have been traveling around Michigan for the past several years. Our focus is lake towns along Lake Huron, Lake Superior and of course my favorite, Lake Michigan. We were in South Haven for the day and exploring the town and we found a fabulous coffee shop - "The Flying Saucer". Great friendly service in a nice shop. The Capuchinos were amazing at a very good price. The counter staff were engaging and made you feel welcome. What more could you want, a great Capuchino in a beautiful lake town on Lake Michigan. If you like coffee, you have to stop at the Flying Saucer in South Haven.

Visiting from Indiana, heard the Flying Saucer had good coffee. We had our 1st French Press Coffee. Medium Roast. It was delicious. Had a nice selection of fresh baked goods. My friend like lemon so we got the lemon bar.. I'm not a big lemon person but it was so good. I had planned on just taking a bite but ate half. Highly recommend the lemon bar. My friend said it was like a lemon curd. Our barrister was so nice and knowledgeable. I wish I had gotten her name. Highly recommend the Flying Saucer.

The service is amazing. The staff is extremely respectful and polite. They are insanely fast getting orders out. Their coffee is, in my opinion, better than large corporations who have pretty good tasting coffee. Their prices are also very reasonable, with a large being around $6 and the food being around $4. 10/10 would recommend.

Guests can enjoy indulgences such as charcuterie boards with wine or champagne. The large family home design makes it ideal for big groups looking to socialize, while the guest house provides a more intimate experience.
A one night stay for our anniversary. Victoria greeted us and made us feel like we were royalty. Adore the rooms! My husband had breakfast with goat cheese and eggs-fresh fruit. More choices upon request, of course. He loved it. We had wonderful conversations with the owner and other guests at night. Caught a beautiful sunset on the beach across the street. What a comfortable environment. Location was perfect. Host was fabulous. We’ll be back!

Our stay at Yelton Manor was lovely. The location allowed us to have morning walks to the marina and multiple beaches within minutes. Our room, Camelia, was almost perfect and spacious. I would, perhaps, recommend blackout shades, since there is no sleeping in with the sun beaming through the blinds. Matt and Victoria were helpful, kind, and diligent. Water and brownies are a nice touch. Thank you.

Lovely rooms - very nicely decorated with large comfortable bed. The house is full of lovely nooks and crannies stuffed full of books! Very close to a lovely beach and walkable to all the lovely restaurants and harbour walk. Breakfast was fine. The housekeeper/owner? seemed overworked or understaffed. Breakfast table was not cleaned and had sticky syrup on it. But overall I would go back and recommend this to others.

I had an excellent experience here and would highly recommend it to anyone in South Haven or visiting the area. The service was outstanding from the moment I walked in and the staff made me feel welcome and taken care of. The food was fresh, full of flavor, and served hot. Every detail showed real pride in what they do. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and perfect for relaxing with friends or family. If you are looking for a great spot in South Haven that combines quality, service, and value, this is it. I will definitely be coming back and telling others about it.

Huge disappointment!!! My husband and I booked the “honeymoon sweet” to celebrate our anniversary and stayed 2 nights. I believe it’s cleaning staff that lets you in and shows you your room. Our room was beautiful and very charming BUT the toilet didn’t flush…we had to take the top off and flush it manually. Oh yes then it overflows if you don’t manually stop it from doing so. There is no cold water in the bathroom sink so we had to brush our teeth in the tub. When we said something about this, we were told oh yes we know it’s broke. No one told us before and no one bothered to fix anything. Needless to say, not super romantic 😂 then we wake up to store bought muffins because whoever cooks was sick and the next morning no breakfast at all! They charge a fortune for a “bed and breakfast “ experience. We never saw the “in keeper” who we were told is available 24/7. They put a $50 credit for the 1 morning of no breakfast and won’t even respond back to an email about the lack of concern about anything. Terrible experience and won’t go back and it’s too bad because it’s a cute place. Also you need to understand when staying on the north shore of this little town, you have a tiny sliver of beach that is public and they are super pretentious about anyone going on a private beach even though there isn’t a sole out there. ADDENDUM: After reaching out a second time, we were given a fair credit for the problems we encountered.

Was a bit disappointed with our arrival. The woman who answered the door wasn’t aware that we payed for an early check in. The outdoor space needs a lot of work, everything was very over grown giving it a messy look. The room was also a bit run down, plugs not working and missing light bulbs. For $300 a night, I would expect more. The location couldn’t be beat!

My friend booked this accommodation through Priceline. Was very disappointed to learn it is not beachfront, as described in the listing. This was my 1st time staying at a B&B. There seemed to be a lot of rooms. Our room was nice (no view) but it did have a jacuzzi tub which we used. The room was freezing and there was no place to control the temperature. The beds are very firm. They do provide coffee, tea, water, brownies and fruit throughout the day. There is no ice machine and when I asked the only staff member there about ice, she said they were out and told me I could get ice at the convenience store. Also, we missed breakfast as it only runs from 8am to 10am but we were never informed of that. For what they charge a night, I would have rather gone to a 4☆ resort with a pool.

Looks like a dream, feels like a shrug — style over substance at Yelton Manor I booked Yelton Manor with high hopes, dazzled by its near-perfect 9.8 rating on Booking and charming aesthetic. The house itself is a gem — think lovingly curated sitting rooms straight out of a magazine, perfect for curling up with a book or pretending you're in a Nancy Meyers film. But beneath the polished surface, the experience quickly fell flat. We were promised drinking water on arrival, only to find the guest fridge consistently empty. When you're paying premium rates, “just drink the tap water” (chlorinated, by the way) isn’t exactly the welcome I had envisioned. Our room? Darling. Immaculately clean, wonderfully comfortable bed — credit where it’s due. Sadly, that was where the hospitality seemed to end. Breakfast was... peculiar. A self-serve coffee bar with no coffee (or mugs), and a host who reluctantly fetched some with the energy of someone deeply inconvenienced by a guest's existence. The actual breakfast was a minimalist masterpiece, if you're into that sort of thing: a single slice of toast wearing a whisper of avocado, two cherry tomatoes, micro greens, two eggs, a modest scoop of fruit, and the ambiance of being a bother. Salt, pepper, sauce, or even a simple “is everything alright?” — apparently too extravagant. Interacting with staff felt less like staying at a B&B and more like interrupting someone's afternoon. If you’re not up for hosting, perhaps hosting isn’t the calling. We polished off our meager plates and went elsewhere to feel human (and full). The building may be warm and inviting — shame the welcome wasn’t.

Restaurant
Brix Corner Oven is a rustic-contemporary eatery and bar that offers wood-fired pizza, craft beer, and cocktails. The restaurant features a spacious outdoor seating area with a patio where guests can enjoy their meals during the summer months. Families can also engage in games like cornhole while savoring Michigan beers on tap. The thin-crust wood-fired pizzas are highly recommended, and the addition of new menu items such as wood-fired asparagus with an over easy egg has been well received.
The ribs and chicken are top notch. Both were tender and packed with flavor. The blueberry sauce is as flavourful as it is unique. Great service, great drinks and a dog friendly to boot. Great spot, highly recommend that you stop in.

Brix has plenty of outdoor seating which is nice to have for South Haven, there is not table service as you'll need to go inside to order your food. It is quite pricey but the food did taste great, beyond most brew pubs. After ordering you'll get a number placard and a wait staff will bring your meal out. The bar is in a different room from where you order the food so also a separate line for that. House mixed drinks are $8 each so pricey as well. Staff was friendly, and being a Friday summer night in South Haven the place was packed, about an hour wait for the food. The line to get a drink was about 10 minutes. Thankfully the staff did have a cooler on the patio portion with water for easy water refills.

Awesome pizza thin crust baked to perfection in wood fired oven and server was fantastic. talked with us about area and what it is like in summer. Definitely will be going back Just visited again on 7/4. They have added things to the menu, especially appetizers. We did a wood fired asparagus drizzled with oil and parmesan cheese topped with an over easy egg. Very different but oh so good. Pizzas were all delicious, the kids loved it. They had like 20 beers on tap and offered some limited hard drinks. Staff all very friendly and always looking to help.

Located in South Haven, The Blueberry Store is a must-visit for anyone who loves blueberries. This quaint store offers a wide variety of blueberry products, from cider and jam to salad dressing and even blueberry wine. You can also find unique items like blueberry pancakes mix, books, coffee, salsa, and more. Visitors can enjoy tasting sessions at the store and even order products online. The friendly staff adds to the delightful experience of exploring the diverse range of blueberry options available.
At 49 years old, I finally got to the place I wanted to see since I was 10. I have an obsession for blueberries that no one will ever match. I first wanna say how impressed I was with the vivacious downtown of South Haven. I didn’t expect much when I came, but thoroughly enjoyed being here. Near a busy crosswalk right on the main drag is The Blueberry Store. Keep in mind that their inventory shuffles; I wanted blueberry brats (YES, they exist) that are sold out as soon as they arrive. It’s best to come here during early hours since it can be busy and items can clear out easily. For amazing blueberry cheesecake ice cream, head a block west to Kilwin’s. Phoenix Street is absolutely wonderful to stroll around, and don’t miss the picturesque downhill pier at the lake.

I couldn’t say no to trying this place’s potatoes, so I dropped by and got one of their stuffed potatoes to go. They actually brought it out to my car, and it was piping hot. Just calling it a stuffed potato feels like an understatement. The container was almost overflowing with cheese, meat, and veggies with the baked potato at the center. It was delicious and filling, and I’d definitely order it again. If you like potatoes, the dressed potatoes are definitely worth a try.

Disappointed. I've had many wonderful meals here in past seasons. However, tonight we waited for over an hour and change for a salad and scallops. This was after waiting 20 minutes to have our drink order taken and another 15 watching our drinks sit at the bar. They probably should not have been seating the restaurant since they were hosting a wedding reception. Hoping to return and have a better experience in the future, but was saddened that this was my first experience of the season back at Hawks Head.

Alright food, although some of the steaks were overcooked or undercooked. Would recommend to get here seven hours early because that’s how long it takes for the food to arrive. Overall, decent service waiter was very nice and helpful. I was very disappointed in the overall inconsistency with the temperatures that we asked for when ordering the steak. And so forth I would conclude my review with a statement. Rust was in the water. That’s all. Thank you for reading my highly sophisticated review. I will be the food critic one day.

We were very disappointed. You have to pay for bread so we paid the $4. All they gave the 4 of us were 2 rolls cut in half. Then we ordered the beef tenderloin appetizer. They gave us 3 crostinis. We said something to the server and she just said “that’s how it comes.” Cmon, there’s four of us, just throw another cracker on since it’s a $21 appetizer. They also got our wine order wrong. So we left without ordering an entree and ate somewhere else. I guess 2 more dinner rolls and a crostini cost them 4 entrees. That’s a great business model

McIntosh Cellars is a pioneer cidery in Michigan, one of the first in the state. Despite being up for sale, visitors have enjoyed its offerings for over a decade. The ciders are described as good, cold, and refreshing, while the fruit wines receive mixed reviews. The tasting experience includes 5 choices for $7 plus an additional fee for the iced cider. The winery offers covered outdoor/indoor seating and a shop with local products.
In every State there has to be a pioneer and Mcintosh Cellars was 1 of the 1st in Michigan. When Michigan only had a handful of Cidery‘s McIntosh was in that hand. I have enjoyed stopping here for the past 10 years every time im traveling through the area. It saddens me to find that Macintosh is for sale but I hope and i like to think that somebody someday somewhere will keep on the tradition of being on the property of a pioneer and continue to make great hard cedars. The original cider and the pear cider is absolutely wonderful and refreshing. The original is not too sweet and it’s not too dry. The pear is fresh pure and soft on the palate. Cheers!

Cute place & nice scenery. There were 5 of us who did the wine tasting & out of the 25 tastings we had I think we only liked 2 total. Very disappointing. We brought some under 21, as they had been to wineries with us in the past & had juice; however, they did not have juice for those under 21. If you're looking for wine tasting, I would try a different winery

The ciders are really good, cold, and refreshing. The fruit wines are hit or miss with flavor and I was slightly disappointed with the iced cider. It's not as heavy as iced wine which is nice but I was hoping it would be as refreshing. Also, the pours were not the same for each tasting, which is $7 for 5 choices plus $1.75 for the iced cider. They also serve meats and cheeses and some panini's. I didn't try them but they sounded good. They have a really cute shop with the typical wine accessories and some great smelling soy candles which I did get.

Chicken Caesar wrap was skimpy on the chicken, but plentiful if you like tomatoes and iceberg lettuce. Salads were disappointing with just iceberg and a slice or two of tomato. Kids meals come with cookies, which we thought were homemade, but not.

Service was excellent. Staff worked perfectly together as a team. Our waitress was amazing and I was impressed with her level of multitasking. I ordered the triple decker turkey club and hubby ordered fish and onion rings. We also got pretzel bites, all was delicious.

The overall experience was not good. We waited about 50 minutes for eggs and pancakes. When it arrived, most was cold and some was uncooked. The restaurant was not even full. I felt sorry for the waitresses and hostesses that rely on this for their income. Especially our waitress who was refilling and checking on us constantly. I hope they figure out how to organize their kitchen better so one person isn’t trying to do everything.

My waffle was BLUE.! Not from blueberries either.! I can’t figure out what was wrong with it, so I just stopped eating it.! Chicken pieces over cooked.! 3 pies to choose from this morning. I’d say this place is lacking….. parking lot so slippery, my husband fell. First and last time we will stop here.!

It may be my nostalgia for the restaurant chain but I really enjoyed it. As a kid my family would stop here and have a burger. The Big Boy burger is a classic double burger with 1000 island dressing. Give it a try if you're in the area, it's a pretty good value for your money.

The Depot is a popular deli and liquor store known for its impressive charcuterie board and delicious sandwiches. The friendly staff and great customer service make it a top choice for many visitors. With a wide selection of alcohol options, it's the perfect spot to grab a drink or enjoy a meal. While some may find the customer service typical of a high-end store, the quality of food and drinks makes up for it.
I was traveling to South Haven for a girls' weekend and contacted The Depot about putting together a charcuterie tray and snack tray so that we could stay in after a long day of travel. They were so responsive and accommodating, and they put together the perfect feast for us. Everything was fresh and delicious, and it made our first night in town perfect. The store itself is fantastic. The service is really friendly and helpful and there's a big selection of gourmet food and drinks. We will be back for sure. Highly recommend!

The sandwiches were average, but $80 for four is quite pricey. Please note that a gratuity was automatically added to my bill when ordering by phone for pickup. While this may be standard for them, it’s unusual for takeout and could surprise other customers. I recommend checking your bill before paying by phone.

Wendy's is a popular fast-food burger chain known for its delicious burgers and sides like chili and baked potatoes. Customers have praised the restaurant for accommodating special dietary needs, such as gluten-free options. One customer shared a positive experience where an employee went above and beyond to create a gluten-free burger using lettuce as the bun, resulting in a satisfying meal. Wendy's continues to be a go-to spot for classic fast food favorites with options for various dietary preferences.
Restaurant was clean and standard for a Wendy’s. We came on a slow Sunday night, dine in. Did not have to wait long. Our food was hot and fresh and exactly what we ordered. Restrooms were clean which made this a good road trip stop.

Where do I start? Poor employee quality including the Manager who told me to "google the owner" when I asked for their name and number. They charged me more than the price posted on their signs (both inside and drive through). This happened 3 times over the last 6 weeks! Each time I complain they tell me "it is the tax", duh. Item price on the sign $2.59. Item price on the receipt $2.89 plus tax. Then they say they have to charge "what is in the system", so out of their hands. Nobody to blame here. Pretty sure this is illegal.

I visited this Wendy’s location yesterday and had a very disappointing experience. I ordered a chicken sandwich that was delivered to me completely cold. What shocked me most was that the manager was the one cooking, which makes it even more surprising that food was served in that condition. When I returned to the cashier to explain that my sandwich was cold, they asked the manager to make me a fresh one. Nearly 40 minutes later, the sandwich still wasn’t ready. During that time, I noticed the manager was conducting an interview with a new employee instead of focusing on resolving the situation. This was, without a doubt, the most unorganized and mismanaged Wendy’s I’ve ever been to. Serving cold food to a paying customer and making them wait 40 minutes for a replacement is completely unacceptable. When I brought this up, the manager’s only response was a quick, “I’m sorry.” I highly do not recommend this Wendy’s. It is poorly run, disorganized, and customer service is severely lacking.

Food was good. But They switched me and my friends food. It took us 20 minutes to order the food and another 10-15 to just get our food. The floor was sticky when walking in, huge line of people to order food and I saw in the back the bacon on a tray sitting there… flys everywhere, French fries on the ground in the back. Only a couple workers working the rest sitting. Lots of alarms going off. Terrible service and place. Never going back. Barley any parking also

The most disgusting fast food restaurant I've ever been to! I was talked into going inside to order and eat. As soon as you walk in, there's flies EVERYWHERE! Even standing there to order was gross, flies going by my face, all over in the kitchen, dining area...Fly strips just hanging in the kitchen COVERED in flies. The worker taking our order wasnt paying attention at all, but then constantly checking the screen with the order like he forgot everything as soon as he read it. Seemed to be a lot of workers but that was the only person at the register. Waited foreverrr to get the food. As soon as he put the tray out, flies were all by the food. I asked for bags, put my food in them, and left...still not wanting to even eat what I paid for... I do not recommend this place to anyone!

Lakeside Entertainment is a well-established bowling alley and American restaurant that has been serving customers since 1987. The venue offers a range of entertainment options including bowling, seasonal mini-golf, and a bar serving cocktails. Visitors have praised the attentive and accommodating staff who go out of their way to ensure everyone has an enjoyable experience. The restaurant serves delicious food with excellent daily deals, making it a popular choice for families and groups celebrating special occasions.
I was visiting from out of town and stopped by with some family to bowl and try the food and drinks. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, which makes sense for a small rural town, but it has a retro charm I can appreciate. We played a few games and the lanes worked well with no real issues. The food was solid, and I liked that they made the pizza well done—it really brought out the flavor. Some of the drinks were a bit average, so there’s room to improve the cocktails, but overall everything was fine. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made the atmosphere feel comfortable. I’d definitely come back!

We just celebrated "100 Years Loved" -- the 100th birthday of my aunt. I must tell you we chose the right place, the right management, the right time and the right date- EVERYTHING! Lakeside Social did us "RIGHT"! The updates etc. that have been made to the facility are RIGHT on time. I believe Lakeside Social is a real blessing to our South Haven community. A Special "Shout out's" to Miss Stephanie S, the truly working general manager who supervised and worked "hands on" before, during and after to make sure things were in order; Mr. Steve Meeks, our chef extraordinaire who prepared a wonderful "100 year celebration" meal of delicious fried chicken, creamy mashed potatoes, with just the right touch of gravy, done just right string beans, rolls, tossed salad, an assortment of beverages and our hostess/server with the "mostest" Miss Linda! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Could not have done it without you. Perfect spot for your next event! Just ask management and I will be happy to share we you! I will share pictures at a later date!

I have been visiting the restaurant occasionally for years. I have enjoyed the food and service and specials very much through the years. Friends will ask what alternative places to try where they can be seated quickly and taken care of efficiently. Very reasonable meals, and beverage. I have noticed unfortunately that the recent Change of ownership brings with it a significant change in service and quality. My wife and I waited 45 minutes to be served and my food was cold. I don’t mind cold potatoes, but that night I didn’t care for the experience. Waitress was pleasant, but did nothing to rectify the situation. At this point, I am reluctant to return and have shared my experience with other friends who have been in agreement. Seems to be to be a huge mistake to have new ownership and allow the service and quality to decline immediately. Bad for maintenance maintenance of business.

Overall we've been extremely pleased with the food and service here. It's nice to see the new owners updating the place. The menu prices have also been updated but are still reasonable and the nightly specials are an exceptional value. Nearly all of the complaints here are from people who don't understand the tipping model or believe the prices should remain locked in 1995. They should consider ordering off the value menu at the drive-thru down the road.

This is the best pizza in town. It is piping hot quick and delicious. You can eat inside and see the nostalgic booths and tables with a little dim lighting. Didn’t notice if there is a hike box but there is a duck machine. It seems well run and we have not had a bad experience yet. I give it 4 stars for atmosphere because they serve you the pizza in a box if you dine in. I understand but it is still a little bit of a bummer. Def recommend if you are an old time fan of the Hut!!

Arby's is a popular fast-food chain that specializes in roast beef sandwiches, as well as offering a variety of hot and cold sandwiches, fries, and shakes. One traveler had an unexpectedly amazing experience at an Arby's location in South Haven, describing it as the closest they've ever felt to heaven. However, another customer was disappointed when they didn't receive a promotional deal that was advertised on local TV. Despite this, the food quality was still praised.
I had gone to Wendy's off of Phoenix rd to get food but the lobby was closed which was fine. I had asked if I can stand at the mic to order or stand at the windows as the vehicle i was driving was a schoolbus and was denied basically being told that if I wanted food from there to bring the bus through the drive thru which wouldn't fit without damage. I called this arby store up and explained my situation and even knowing that the lobby was closed the lady on phone told me that she has absolutely no issue with it and said that if I bring the bus and park she would open the doors so I can come in and order. She showed that people out there do respect professional drivers and 10/10 would recommend more truck drivers and bus drivers to come to this location.

I ordered at the drive through today and was then asked if I'd "like to donate a dollar to kids". When I said "no not today" his reply was "really? No? How sad." I was then given a cold beef and cheddar sandwich and cold curly fries. When I asked the lady who gave me my food if I could have Arby and Horsey sauce she acted as though it was a huge inconvenience. She never spoke a word to me....no hello, have a nice day, here's your food....not a single word. Very rude treatment for not donating a dollar to a "kid". What "Kids" group are you supporting and collecting money for? How much of my dollar actually supports a child? It doesn't really matter as I will not be back. There are plenty of other places to eat in South Haven.

I would have liked to leave a better review however they always close early just like tonight. They always have a great excuse too they are short staffed or they had to tear down the machines early because they couldn't stay late. I know people that work in the fast food industry in the same town. last night in particularly they got stuck until 4:00 a.m. because there was only two people, they never shut down the business either. This particular location continues to close early on random days whenever they decide they don't want to work anymore. They're nice enough to leave the headsets on so that way they can still clock their hours and tell you that they're closed and make it appear that they're still open to corporate. If you look closely you can see they're either smoking whatever paraphernalia is their choice or eating in the kitchen trying to hide from the windows. If you don't have the proper staff to stay open change your hours. If you don't have the proper staff that has common sense look for new staff. If you happen to be the GM and don't realize that your store is getting closed early almost in the nightly perhaps you should stop in and make a sneak visit at the end of the night. I truly hope corporate sees this. This is definitely been going on long enough. With that said I've never had an issue with the morning crew. They have always been amazing. Beyond accommodating and more than happy to give you a crown no matter what your age is. Night shift do better!!!

Ordered a brisket whopper jr Waited 5 mins for the to tell the front counter lady they didn't have it anymore. Why is it on the menu still? Reordered for a whopper Jr they tried to get me to go without giving me the difference. They messed it up. I went back in to get it remade the manager said that "it was a lot to remember and we're busy." Waited until drive thru was cleared before remaking my sandwich. Took 27 mins of my half hour break to get my one sandwich made right! And the manager had that kind of attitude on top of it!

No frills, but good pizza: crust are soft, good blend of cheese, with diced vegetables on their large Very Veggie, and it was $15 and change for a large. While there is seating, it is attached to a gas station mini-mart. So, if you are looking for a selection of chips, snacks, a coffee bar, and low cost fountain drinks...this is a good fit. Oh, and by the way, a good price on gas.

Wonderful experience and the employee was super helpful. FYI little Caesars (overall not location)....make your online ordering more accessible to modifications like Pizza Hut does. Some people have special requests for certain things. Do better.

Today Little Caesars won my loyalty. I was at the high school with extra students that parents where running late as well as my own kids. I door dashed pizza for them and when it got here the cheese pizza was sausage. If you know kids you know that was not going to work! When I called them manager understood I was stuck and could not leave to pick up the correct pizza so she ran out and dropped it off to us. Happy Kids and very happy mom/teacher. Any manager that is willing to go out of their way like that is top in my book. Thank you

Their pizza was good and the order was completed in due time, however, they're not very friendly and when my phone was cutting out I had asked for cheese sauce and she repeated it back to me, and I still got pizza sauce to which I'm allergic to.

Employees/cashier had a bad attitude Apparently they were busy before I got there. But that’s what happens at work. Sometimes it gets busy.

Second time I walk in there to order pizza and it’s 90 degrees, unbearably hot. Sad for the workers

Truffle fries were delish! The burger with 3 patties, fried egg, and onion strings was amazing. Great cocktails!

First of all, the staff was considerate to let us sit inside even though we had a dog. For food, we had the beef bolognese and the deluxe burger with fries. My bolognese was a little towards the sweeter side but everything else was really tasty.

We had a great experience at Social House. Let us park in the employee parking, server was super friendly to my toddler, pulled pork fritters and Mac n cheese were all great. Prices were on point too.

Was hoping to see a local discount since the prices were really high. Bought 2 salads and 2 drinks from the gun and it was $50. Left still hungry. Service and atmosphere were great. Go quick if you’re interested, I’m thinking this one won’t last without some changes.

Horrible first attempt. Show up at 10 for brunch. Claims opens at 11 not 10 on Sunday for brunch as “Google has it wrong.” Problem is it says 10:00 ON THEIR MENU (see attached pic). Second brunch is basically an early serving of their dinner menu. Nothing that’s breakfast lunch or brunch. Finally, after taking and bringing our drink orders, we’re informed half the menu is unavailable due to “kitchen issues with the fryer”. No need to go back.

McDonald's is a well-established fast-food chain famous for its classic burgers and fries. Customers often find it to be an affordable and convenient option, especially for families. While some have experienced occasional errors in their orders or encountered staff with attitudes, others have praised the efficient service and delicious flavors. Overall, it offers what one would expect from a typical fast-food restaurant.
Drive thru took a while, but oh my god this is the single greatest breakfast bagel I've ever had from McDonald's. Fluffy bagel, crispy and soft on the inside. Hot and fresh, just wow.
June M — Google review
Atmosphere was great and there's a play area with a large slide. However they acted like each individual fry came out of their check. Both large fries were filled before the edge of the front of the container. Absolutely ridiculous.

I ordered through the app. I went through the drive-thru and got an iced coffee. When I order it through the app I order it with no milk and no ice because the ice Waters down the flavor. I've had about four of my coffee's handed out the window with ice in it after I put no ice in the app. I didn't say anything. This time I said something. The guy at the window was awesome he's always showing excellent customer service. However the older lady in the back with the long grayish hair and glasses she rolled her eyes and said oh my God that she had to remake mine. Well don't put ice in it whenever the screen clearly shows that it says no ice. Is it the biggest deal in the world know it's not but you know what her nasty Behavior I can only imagine what she puts her co-workers through. The next time I go and she gives me a hard time, we're going to have loud words in front of everybody. She's not going to treat me like that again I promise! If she was doing her job then she wouldn't have had anything to complain about. And if she's a manager, you need to get a different one.

Food was average McDonald's food. I ordered from the kiosk and took my number. No one brought our food to us or let us know it was ready. I marked dine-in, but our food was packaged for takeout. All the tables in the play area were dirty. I had to go grab a couple of clean trays since we didn't get any. I also had to go grab cups for our drinks. Why have us take a number if our food isn't going to be delivered to us? The bathroom in the kids' play area was disgusting! This was 7pm, and it wasn't busy.

I want to congratulate you you know what a Big Mac is it's it's made probably it's made properly with two buns and it's actually a Big Mac it's it actually has a proper name to it because in other areas like the McDonald's down here in in Monroe I don't know what a Big Mac is like little you know it's like a single size like you know it's not a Big Mac at all so thank you and you guys are very friendly and you have wheelchair accessibility and all that sort of thing and and it's very convenient and very clean keep up the good work

Manager Karen is amazing has always been very friendly and kind. However Christina is very rude and unprofessional. After her demeanor as well as calling me a liar over a sprite/fry that I paid for via mobile order even after showing her proof she was still very rude. Been going here for years, now I don't even want to go back after the way she talked to me.

I arrived at 10:29 a.m. and asked the lady what she had for breakfast. She told me they were already at lunch. And then I saw that two people after me had ordered breakfast. Incredible.

Gyros, Banh mi, smash burgers, ice cream. Heck of a variety as far as menu. I can only speak on the smash burgers, but no complaints. The decor inside is definitely interesting and the patio is fun! Good vibes here.

Rough experience. Ordered dinner online, arrived and was told they didn't see my order as it was on another screen. Told they would bring it to my car in 5-10 minutes, 15 minutes later I walked in and saw my meal behind the counter. Gyros bowl and dumpling appetizers felt like reheated frozen meals served with grocery bag salad. I'm usually pretty optimistic but this was not for me. Would recommend other options with your time.
Ryan J — Google review
We're locals of SW MI & this was the first time we ate here. From the outside, it looks like a "Hole in the wall" eatery, but inside the menu offered international favorites like Gyros, Bah mi, stir fries, pierogi, & kielbasa. The waiting line to order at the counter was not surprising and the meal prices were affordable. We made our selves comfortable at a table and they brought our food out within 15 min. The only negatives were the cleanliness of the restrm. and the shortage of napkins on the tables. But we'll certainly go again.
STXPony C — Google review
I misread the menu for whatever reason but I did assume the gyros would come with the added toppings like tomato. They should. I didn’t realize I’d have to pay for them. So my gyro sucked. Would have been better with it. My family felt similarly. Also their online menu is misleading because I believed there’d be açaí bowls available but I didn’t see it in person? The tables inside were also dirty. No point in sitting inside because they come wrapped to go.
Sara T — Google review
Took forever even though they're not busy. My $13 veggie bowl has maybe 4 broccoli florets, a miniscule amount of shredded carrots, exactly 3 mushroom slices, and the rest is rice and lettuce. Hubby says his gyro is delicious.

Burgers were delicious the fries were cooked to Perfection all of the wrap wasn't cooked well enough or even the cheese to melt
Travis W — Google review
We made a stop last night for a sweet treat, sadly we tossed both ice creams and the slushy. The ice cream was gritty and icy and the blue raspberry slushy was overly sour. With the area, this place could benefit from a higher quality soft serve. The girl working the booth was not friendly but also not rude, just not warm? She only wore a glove on one hand which was off putting since she touched the ice cream cone with her uncovered hand. We will try this location again in the future, hoping a second chance with positive improvements.

Went here with family to get cheesesteaks and was not disappointed. Service was fine, straightforward. Atmosphere was cool, but i didn't get to enjoy it for too long, we ordered take out. The ice cream shop in the outdoor area was tempting, so be careful! Recommended for a quick bite with friends and family.
