“Frankly, DogSlinger Offers Winning Wieners Warmer days had my wife Shelly and me jonesing for summer grub, so we decided to investigate DogSlinger, located near the corner of St. Joseph Ave. and John Beers Rd. in the heart of uptown Stevensville, Michigan. Upon entering, we were greeted with giant artsy photos of each type of dog on the menu, and our mouths immediately began to water. The wall of photos made ordering easy since we could see each type of hot dog. Conversely, it made it more difficult to order because there were so many unique dogs and sausages that we wanted to try. Per usual, we did some splitsies. We started off with the Seattle Dog, which found the Vienna all-beef hot dog nestled in a cream cheese laden brioche bun and topped with freshly cut and grilled onions and peppers. The warmth of the hot dog caused the cream cheese to soften and melt into the bun. The saltiness of the dog was nicely accentuated by the mild, sweet, and tangy hints of cream cheese. I said “Yeehaw,” when I bit into the Cowboy Dog, which was wrapped in bacon, topped with cheese sauce, BBQ sauce, and some house-made crispy onion strips…oh, and then more chunks of bacon! The hickory smoke flavor of the bacon and the sweetness of the BBQ were well balanced. You’d better saddle up before trying to rustle this beast. I never thought one hot dog could fill me up, but this was one big meaty dog! The Termintater (not a typo) is DogSlinger’s version of a loaded baked potato. Somewhere near the bottom of this creation was a hot dog suffocated by a myriad of tater tots and meat chili. Nacho cheese sauce, sour cream and their house-made Slinger Sauce was drizzled over the heap before it was garnished with fresh-sliced scallions. In football, we call this “piling on!” Of course, we couldn’t leave without having the traditional Chicago Dog. It’s hard to beat this classic when it’s made with premium ingredients. A true Chicago dog must start with an authentic Vienna Beef brand all-beef frank in a steamed poppy-seed bun and topped with neon green sweet relish, chopped onion, yellow mustard, tomato slices, a kosher spear, pickled peppers known as “sport peppers” and a dash of celery salt. Do not embarrass yourself by asking for ketchup on it. Actually, they will make it for you that way, but they may razz you a bit.“

“We are visiting from Ohio and love trying hole in the wall local spots and this is one of the best we have found! the food was great, the chicken wrap was perfect and the BBQ pork tip sandwich was also on point. the staff were so kind and quick.“

“Applebee's is your usual American chain restaurants. Prices are reasonable, and they have several all you can eat dinners. They were short staffed, so it took a little longer than usual to get our food. The service was excellent, they did the best they could, and were honest about the situation.“

“fast service even though they were pack.food was hot and friendly employee s“

“I love everything about this place! From the food ( biscuits and gravy were yummy- perfect gravy to biscuit ratio) to the friendly staff- I think I spoke to all of them as they checked in on me, to the chill environment! This will be my go to place when I'm in town.“

“Just had dinner here at the Red Arrow Roadhouse. Hubby ordered the meatloaf dinner and he liked it very much. I ordered the Roadhouse Classic Reuben minus the sauerkraut and 1000 island dressing! The house-cooked corned beef, warm, very lean, and incredibly tender on griddled marbled rye, with melted Swiss cheese was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had! The fries were perfectly cooked and hot. Our server was a dream. Friendly and welcoming. She made us want to come back! The next time we’re in New Buffalo, we will definitely visit this restaurant again.“

“This was our first visit to the Staymaker, which is the restaurant within the Journeyman Distillery. We are visiting from Chicago and this was recommended and we were not disappointed! Everything was really excellent! From our charming and attentive server Hailey, to the amazing smoked trout spread app to the Trout entree and the brisket meatloaf. It was all so delicious! We will be back!“

“Great food at a great price! This unassuming restaurant is a delightful surprise. Offering an extensive menu of American standards prepared to perfection, it also offers Greek fare such as gyros and baklava and shish kabob. The parking is excellent and there are tables outside available for outdoor dining if the weather permits. Close your eyes and pretend you are on a Greek island, or at least in Greek Town in Chicago. The food is that good! Andy, the friendly Greek American owner, knows his many regulars by name. He offers take out, dining in and catering. The hot dogs are Vienna Beef-terrific! He has a hot dog cart available for your next party too.“

“Excellent menu, delicious food, good variety, friendly and professional staff, local business, clean and pleasant dining room.“

“One of my fav local spots! Delicious, fresh food. Friendly atmosphere with welcoming staff. Kaitlyn ALWAYS has an inviting smile and sunshiny attitude. Owners Jayme and Ryan are incredible and provide a great experience, including going well above and beyond. We need more places (and people) like this! 🤗☺️“

“What else can I say but Amazing“

“Been here many times. We had a great dinner here the other night as always. The zucchini blossoms are delicious and the sauce to dip them is so good. The blueberry martini is my favorite.“

“I was waiting by the hostess stands for someone to notice me. A woman walked through the door to start her shift, asked me if I had been helped. I told her no and she immediately helped me to a table, got me menus and asked about my drink.

She did an amazing job. Start to finish. The service, meal, portions down to the drink were great!

I will be back and hope she's working again! Or that I at great get that amazing service again!

Thank you!“

“Walked in a little after 2 pm on a Monday (7/14) and they were surprisingly busy. There were two women on the floor and they were phenomenal... A bit disappointed that there was no one else there to support them but they held their own. There was a large party and then several other tables and since we were coming to relax we weren't bothered with a wait, there really wasn't much of one. Ordered the pretzel bites and cheese garlic bread appetizers which were half odd. Garlic cheese bread was fantastic!! The ladies kept our drinks replenished and we look forward to returning soon.“

“Decided to try this place for dinner and it was pretty good! The bloomin onion was the only thing I did not like, unfortunately it had no flavor. But the rest of the food was good! My steak was cooked perfect. My wife’s steak did come out over but we just shared mine.“

“My fiance and I shared a large Chicken Nacho's which was more than enough to make the two of us very full. The restaurant was hosting a fundraiser where they would donate 20% of the proceeds from the night to a local family who had medical issues, which I think is a great way to give back to the community! Very nice restaurant for casual dinning, date night, or an evening out with the family!“

“Spareribs succulent. Nice salad and sides. Enjoyed cakelike cornbread. Great service .“

“Excellent service. Greeted right away. No wait to sit, even on Saturday. Got a small booth as my choice.

Server was prompt. Got my drink, few minutes to decide on my order. All good things.

Breakfast cane out just as I ordered it.

All good things. I will be back when I'm in the area!“
