Restaurants in Michigan City

“Me and my girlfriend went here to try something new. We had came here to get brunch and the food was amazing and good price. I got the chicken and waffles she got one of the skillets. Bradly was our server he was so nice and gave us time to look at the menu overall amazing”

“I live in Chicago and bought a second home in MC about 5 years ago. This is hands down my favorite restaurant in MC!! We’ve been coming for years and have NEVER had a bad experience. In 5 years, I’ve had only 1 refire asked, and the wonderful female GM who’s always there delivered the refire herself to ensure it was right. I have 2 little girls who have now grown to love it too. Even with toddlers they are always so polite and accommodating to us. They really do understand true hospitality, something I don’t often see in Chicago. The wait time has never once gone over (usually 1/2 the quote time). They are a sincere group of people. So refreshing to see these days. I’ve also taken my buddies after a day of work and we will sit in the bar area that is a little more lively and full of TVs. I’ve sat at the actual bar once and made a new friend (random stranger) that travels from New Buffalo because he, like me, simply loves it. They hit on all cylinders. Are there fancier possibly better steaks in the country? Sure… but this place is an AMAZING bang for your buck. Once, my wife and I went, and we love coconut shrimp but didn’t necessarily want an entree of it, the server recommended we do a 6 piece add on as an appetizer, awesome!! They truly have your best interest in mind. So rare to see these days. Thank you Galvestons, you got a regular for life! Management, keep up the great work, it’s clear to us customers you are involved. From the top all the way to the bussers. BTW my favorite is the Prime Rib!! If you go on Friday or Saturday it’s a must try!!”

“we stumbled on this gem last summer for the first time and just went back for our 5th time yesterday and we live 3 1/2 hours away! the food is consistently amazing, everything we try we love. The staff is stellar 24/7 crem Bru le 👌 magnificent! fish camp is the highlight of every trip we come here to visit! if you like watermelon tey the watermelon margaritas! You won't be dissapointed!”

“The food was delicious and the atmosphere was so unique. It was beautiful all decked out for the holidays.”

“Had a great meal at Vita del Lago. The portions are extremely generous and delicious. The owner was very accommodating in response to our requests However, the server was Very slow to bring everything we asked for. Again, the food was delicious but would hesitate going back if we had the same server”

“We cannot wait to go back!!! We had the fried feta cubes - OMGGGG yes! The arinicini - delicious with a little kick. The flo-chos (recommended by our server) with steak- the real star of the appetizer menu!
The Nashville hot chicken sandwich - chef's kisssssssss
The steak caprese sandwich - not a single bite was left.

We seriously cannot wait to come back! Every single bite was amazing. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and kind. Happy new year!”

“Great place for meeting up with friends and enjoying wine time. The food is good… we ordered two flatbreads and both were good (Thai chili & jerk chicken). The burger was cool. However. We didn’t really care for the short rib sandwich.
The menu is small but I love that they use all types of flavors. The atmosphere is beautiful with nice views and they have outdoor pods you can rent for your group. Check it out! Nice spot :)”

“Lots of gluten free options! Quick service and yummy burger and fries.

Dietary restrictions: Tons of gluten free options! Menu was well labeled.”

“I’ve been a long time follower of Royale with Cheese on social media and finally made it out there this last Saturday. The food was amazing and the serving sizes were plentiful! The fries were crispy and the fried pickles had an outstanding batter on them. The burgers were so tasty, and you can’t go wrong with any they offer.”

“Great beers! Alyssa was a great server. Very friendly and attentive. We tried the catfish bites (absolutely outstanding!!) and a couple beers when passing through. Highly recommend.”

“Mug club party!, always great food and beer!”

“we went for New Years Eve , this is our 3rd time and as always had a great time! the only thing was our seating was a little off instead of one table for 4, they sat us at 2 little tables for 2. But outside of the seating the food and drinks were great”

“Great place! Owner is wonderful!”

“Not only is Memo's a great restaurant to unwind and have a delicious meal, it's a great place to work. I came into Memo's about a month ago and I am treated very well. The Memo's family is very welcoming to their guest and their employees. I'm very happy I am able to be a part of the Memo's team. I appreciate the portions I serve to our guest. we have food for everyone's taste buds; from breakfast, to light lunches, to filling dinners full of varties. We always have our all you can eat salad and soup bar, or you can get a one time trip to the salad bar with you meal. The choices are endless and our customers always leave happy.”

“We were traveling through the area and stopped for a bit of breakfast. So glad we did, as it was very yummy. I had the Captains Breakfast (biscuits/gravy) and hubby had Makn Bacn (BLT with egg). Highly recommend both. We are definitely adding this as a necessary stop when we are in town! Sat outside with nice covered porch. Quiet area, with a park across the street-we even saw a deer in the park.”

“Great Authentic Tacos! Steak Al Pastor Birria Chorizo Beef Chicken Lengua”

“This time I tried the mushroom Swiss burger. Cooked exactly like I requested and it tasted great!”

“I ordered food for carry out some months ago. The 'bacon' burger(I can't remember it's name) was hands-down the best vegan burger I've ever had, and I've had A LOT of them. It was just utter perfection. I also had fries which were delicious, homemade chocolate chip cookies which were superb, and a very tasty and refreshing lemonade. The spot is minutes from both the outlet mall and the beach. The place was clean and cutely furnished. The person who served me(I believe the owner) was absolutely lovely. I live in Michigan, but I will certainly pop-in anytime I'm passing through, or I may just make a trip to MC specially for this burger. I hope this place sticks around! Highly recommend!”

“Awesome food! Great menu! Very tasty!”

“The staff there are just wonderful and I love their coffees”

“We came here while on vacation and it was the perfect brunch spot. ❤️ The portions were great for my husband, me and our super hungry little girl. The plating was beautiful. I'd definitely recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Amazing food! When we visit Michigan City, this is where we always stop.”

“Arturo was great! Our food was fantastic and the restaurant was very clean, bright and the staff all friendly. I had thick French toast with fresh strawberries and my husband had the quesadillas special. Wonderful restaurant!!”

“This was a wonderful find. The corned beef was flavorful. The reuben sandwich had the perfect ratio of ingredients. The corned beef roll was very tasty. The young lady behind the counter was very friendly and helpful. It was easy to give this five stars.”

“Amazing food. And amazing service. It felt home cooked.”

“This place never disappoints!! Great food, fabulous service, and the owner/manager, Pete, is wonderful!!”

“We had take out tonight for Scartozzi’s for the first time and to say that we were satisfied is an understatement. I was very impressed with the quality, taste, and portions of our food. We tried the chicken alfredo, one with fetuccini and one with bowtie pasta and both were beyond delicious; the cripsy chicken cutlet on top was perfectly cooked and so crispy and juicy and the bread that comes with the pasta is a DREAM. The caesar salad was phenomenal- the dressing and croutons are to die for. Last, we got the cheese bread which as simple as it is, was very delicious. Aside from the food, the atmosphere was so welcoming and cozy from the moment you pull into the parking lot; since it is December the decorations were so festive and beautiful, and everyone was so pleasant and nice. We have already discussed that this place will become a new weekly tradition—please keep being so amazing! Support local small businesses❤️”

“I had my very 1st experience with FLUID just a few days ago. The staff was so pleased and welcomed me with such joy, and were very helpful. Chai is my favorite. They had a few different choices, so I ordered the butterscotch, and it was so amazing! Best chai I think I've ever had. So tasty. Thank you for the fabulous 5 plus star experience. I'll be back! 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵”

“10/10 delicious food, great service Eat there it's GOOD”

“My girlfriend and I went to dinner at Scoop's tonight. We had barely started eating our food when we noticed a couple of the very young waitresses talking poorly about an older couple that had just left. They were making rude comments about the way they smelled, laughing and joking about the couple while the waitresses were on the floor and in clear earshot of more than just our table. We were so disgusted with the behavior and immaturity of the two waitresses, we reported the behavior to the manager on duty, who did nothing but laugh and joke with them. My girlfriend and I were so offended we asked for to go boxes, paid our bill, and left. As we were leaving one of the waitresses in question was whispering and pointing at us with another waitress. The maturity level of the staff tonight was incredible. I have seen preschoolers with better behavior. I do not recommend this branch if this behavior continues, however, FB will not let you say you did not recommend.”

“Carlson’s Drive In, Michigan City Indiana (I came specifically to order the Italian Beef and the pork tenderloin sandwich)
The beef was decent, but they don’t have the ability to offer it dipped. They don’t have true spicy peppers, but rather a pepper that they threw on top of the sandwich. OK in a pinch if you’re looking for general flavoring Italian Beef, but that particular dish is just not their thing.

The pork tenderloin sandwich looks pretty good and it was pretty tasty for a fritter. Decently moist and crisp, with a restaurant atmosphere that contributes to the dining experience.”

“Friendly, casual, home-style food”

“Today was our first time eating here and will positively not be the last !! The food and the Service were both Phenomenal!! 10/10 For Sure”

“This pizza was delicious!!! I would have to say that it was the best thin crust pizza that I have ever eaten! You can taste every topping individually because of the quality ingredients! I highly recommend their pizza with the olive oil! Healthy and delicious!”

“Exceptional service by Sarah W tonight! First time in over 4 years we have had this kind of service in a chain restaurant. If you’re going and she’s working, request her!!!”

“We ordered Wana tonight for the first time in years. It was so good. The toppings were plentiful. We had it delivered and it was hot when it arrived. Will definitely be ordering again soon!”

“Excellent, friendly service along with great food! We then locked our keys in the car. One employee provided a gadget that provided space to use another gadget. Another employee offered to help. A couple then offered their help. He was a fireman and was able to unlock the door! Thank you!!!”

“The spaghetti was very aladente excellent. Meatballs was very good.Could use a little more pulmonaro Parmesan o. Biggest problem is too much water Coming out with the spaghetti.on the spaghetti. Biggest problem.I ordered Italian sausage with my spaghetti and meat sauce.Meat sauce was good. And I ended up with a meatball instead of italian sausage. That's okay.The waitress messed up and the meatball was fine. My grandbabies had butter and parmesan cheese on their spaghetti and it was very watered.Drain at spaghetti don't need water with the sauces. Altogether. I'll give it a 5.5.It was a good meal Not great but good”

“Great lunch with fun items for your Lakeside souvenirs!”

“My son and I were absolutely freezing so we went to South Bend Chocolate to get some hot chocolate and candy. The hot chocolate was piping hot and rich. We got their old fashioned toffee too- soooo good!!! We grabbed a bag of caramel corn at the last minute and it did not disappoint. It’s hard to remember the place since it’s not on our normal beaten path! It has a large seating area that’s very warm and inviting. It’s a great place to take a kid at the end of the week for a treat!”

“I absolutely LOVED my cake and it was DELICIOUS!!! I will definitely be purchasing from Binas Bake Shoppe again 💓”

“However today my rice was ice cold…I was disappointed…Did not receive pita bread with my bowl…Again disappointed… Sauces were very good…A few things were off today…😢 I must say first time having issues…😢 The hummus was very good…”

“The gentleman who runs the place is delightful. The place sells a variety of flavored coffee and a couple sweet treats but it is first most for roasting and second making coffee. If you want a good cup of basic coffee come here, but they don't do anything fancier. It's small and though not exactly cozy, still a nice place to sit, have a cup of coffee and a donut.”

“Absolutely love this Dunkin it is only drive through but the workers are so friendly, they are quick and kind vs the other Dunkin on Franklin were they are rushing you to order even when it is not busy and at times doesn’t get the complete order”

“By far the best Italian beef in town*** The staff is always friendly and the riff raff is kept to a minimum. Overall it's a great place to munch and grab some beers. They have live bands on the weekends if you're looking for live entertainment. I highly recommend trying if you haven't.”

“This is our second visit to Frosty Boy and once again we were pleased overall. You can't beat the real ice cream and freshly made hamburgers! Also a bonus is that they allow dogs on the patio. Thanks, Frosty Boy!”

“Great food! I really enjoyed the flavor and the staff were very friendly!”

“Always great service here & delicious food/drinks! ❤️”

“Delish! I loved the smores.”

“Ok you guys got me this time!!! Lmfao staple through the straw! Love the food definitely still coming back.”

“A great guy with great service. The best chicken and to-go mac & cheese in Michigan City. Brutal quality that makes Popeyes, KFC, Canes and Chic-fil-A look mid. Nothing will stop me from resorting to Golo periodically. Thank you for existing especially when I’m off my health routine with pregnancy cravings.”

“Great customer service, they’re very kind & ms Shelly is a sweetheart”

“John is an awesome owner, always so much fun visiting my girlfriend”

“Amazing food! Amazing people!”

“the Chinese food was excellent and would get the tacos again”

“Food is very good and price is very fair. Service is very sub par. Waitresses run around like chickens with there head cutoff. I did a reorder on fish and after 45 minutes the waitress said she was sorry but somebody else took my order. Paid my check and left. Don’t know if I will ever come back.”

“I come here from Gary because the food is always hot and fresh. I'm never disappointed. Mrs. Sue always tries to get to know her customers and if you are a regular she knows exactly what you are going to order.I always forget to order extra sweet and sour sauce, but it's always in my bag?It's only her and her husband and they do a better job than a full staffed restaurant. Great service and great food. I absolutely ❤️ this place.”

“Great ambience!! The tea bombs were amazing. I got the "Captain America" one with pomegranate and raspberry!! Anastasia is so nice and welcoming!! She will make you and even your kiddos something energizing and fresh❤🤩”

“Absolutely no highlight. When I was asked what I wanted, the man behind the screen was rude. When I odered a deluxe hamburger, with mac and cheese, he walked away before I could finish my order, of getting an extra side of mac n cheese. Got my food amd only had to drive 2 minutes back to my work to eat. open the container, the mac n cheese was barely warm. It's a tiny, tiny burger, with wilted, nasty looking lettuce on it, and instead of onion slices, the whole pit of the onion was in the middle of the burger. not to mention the hamburger was ice cold. Absolutely terrible service. Went when they while at the Harley Davidson dealership on 421. Would not recommend.”

“Awesome place that looks like a fishingboat. The food was good and plenty. They are also playing cool music and you can see the lighthouse and the drawbridge from the " deck " . Highly recommend it if you are looking for a unique experience in Michigan City.”

“They staff here are amazing the food is delicious we have not had a bad experience as of yet. Hollie Deb Cat Joey Stacy… even the bouncers I mean everything and everyone is great… karaoke nights Tuesday and Thursdays are always fun!!! Also hats off to the cooks who keep us fed with delicious meals on our fun nights!!!”

“The waitresses were all so sweet! Even if it’s a little bit of a drive, worth it for the service 100% (and their hair tinsel was super cute!)”

“Very nice restaurant fast service. Waitress was very friendly. Clean restaurant. 3 yrs later clean still.cowboy steak was delicious. Fajitas were good but could use more meat.Very tasteful.waited a while for our mixed drinks.but I don't think had a bar tender available.”

“I want to give a shout out to Alicia S. At this location. 8:30 on a Friday night I pulled through after driving 12 hours. Just wanted a hot meal before I checked into a hotel to crash. Food took a good 20 min. Opened it up at the hotel and while the order on the receipt was correct the food was Not! A completely different meal in which 1/2 I couldn’t eat. I called and spoke with Alicia, she did her best to give me a solution and I was so tired I didn’t want to leave the hotel and I hung up. She called me back 5 min later and offered certificates for a meal and a shake for any location and even offered to meet me at 7am as I was leaving early to drive all day again. She was there as promised and apologized again. I also apologized for hanging up on her 😉 She went above and beyond and I feel should be recognized for it. Way to go Alicia! Thank you! 👏🏻🤗”
