“Cozy coffee shop with a relaxed ambiance and friendly service! The crème brûlée latte and pumpkin spice latte were both very tasty! Those chocolate chip cookies served from a warmer were looking pretty tempting, too!”
“I really love this place. We come here often when we’re craving Chinese food. Everything I’ve had, I’ve really enjoyed. They bring new food out constantly, and the service is great. We brought our daughter in recently, she’s less than a year old but insist she should feed herself, which can lead to quite a mess. Our server wanted to help clean up, but it was bad and we really want to clean up anything excessive. The server insisted, with a smile, and swatted my husband away from trying to clean. She was so sweet, I just loved the whole interaction. So, kid friendly, great food, feast service. An all around awesome place!!”
“Went here tonight with my wife and kids and it was the best experience. There were 3 young ladies working and they did an excellent job The food was fresh and hot and came out to the table exactly how we ordered it!”
“An absolute must for me to visit any time I'm in Hale, I am OBSESSED with the mango habanero truffle and 5 alarm bar.... Sweet and heat is magical together!”
“Amazing job by Lee!! They closed and we were out of gas but ready for a long night on the water. Lee helped us out and went above and beyond to fill our tank! Very grateful!”
“Great local watering hole. Excellent menu that runs the gamut. Burgers that will give you a heart condition to salads that would choke a hippo. The staff is fun and sassy. A must visit place if in the area.”
“Got here early before it was busy. I was extra hungry so the food tasted doubly good. Nice day of hiking and a good meal- I got the fiesta sampler and highly recommend it. The flautas were excelente!”
“My wife and I went to Northwoods Steakhouse for Valentine’s. We both ordered steak and it was delicious. The steak was cooked to perfection (medium) and very tender. The Valentine’s drink special ( strawberry crème martini) was excellent as was the glass of red wine. Our waiter was very attentive and answered all the questions we had. Definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys a great meal for a fair price.”
“Cute local place with great food and drinks reasonably priced. Friendly, fast service. Enjoyed seeing the snow coming high school kids at their dinner. The staff were providing extra special care. ”
“The food and tea was fantastic. Even though we ate in, we felt we should have taken it somewhere else. There are no bathrooms! Even for customers. Didn't feel very welcome. The Big Pig sandwich was amazing.”
“We're up in East tawas for vacation and we ordered the "Work's pizza" from the Hungry Howie's in ET and it was LOADED! They didn't scimp on toppings and it was delicious, thank you HH! We will be back. Also, the young lady at the counter was very nice, it must be that small town charm!?”
“I believe this place used to be a small tiki hut behind the holiday inn sometime in 80's or 90's they built a more permanent foundation and of course expanded it ... after it closes u can enjoy songs around a fire on the beach meet ppl from all over the place and share stories ... my grandmother introduced me to this area over 40 yrs ”
“We had LJS. The food was good. Probably best LJS we have eaten at in years.The restaurant was very clean, my hats off to the employees for the upkeep.We'll be stopping again on our next trip.”
“Awesome restaurant with real menus, nice tables, comfy seats and atmosphere, and excellent service. The food is always amazing a little pricey, as is everything now, but this place is worth the money! My whole family loves eating here. My favorite thing is the pulled pork platter. The ribs are delicious and the fries are the best.Kid-friendliness: It does have a bar but still very kid friendly”
“I absolutely adore our local KFC... it's hard to find consistency sometimes but when I say they are always on, they are always on! I always order the Famous Bowl. Whenever I'm out of town and have a craving and try ordering from another KFC I'm always slightly disappointed. Every time I order from our I feel like family. Thank you local KFC and keep rocking it.”
“First time there for date night and it was fantastic! First off, let me tell you about our waitresses, Abbie. She was the only wait staff working the six or so tables of 4. (We were the only table of 2) It seemed as if each table had it's own personal waitress cuz Abbie was so attentive. She also knew the menu front to back. To drink we had an Elderberry Fizz, which the bartender wasn't shy on vodka. It was good ?. Stuffed jalapeno poppers wrapped in bacon with a raspberry drizzle made for an excellent appetizer! For the entree we both had the New York Strip, rare. It was seared perfectly on the outside and warm and pink all the way through. The side salad was great, no tomatoes, but it did come with croutons and cucumbers. I like tomatoes but I didn't miss them. The potatoes were pretty good too. For dessert we had the cheesecake, and when Abby asked us if we wanted the raspberry drizzle or the chocolate drizzle we said both of course! She said no problem. We will definitely be going back! It was very affordable too! We even took a piece of cheesecake home to Grandma for 7 bucks. Our whole meal was under a hundred!”
“Stopped in real quick with my dad after we got done mowing a lawn. I think it was the first time I tried this location. I think it was great. We came at a non-busy time so we gout our fresh order pretty quick. The food tasted good (I know there is better pizza out there, but not all Little Cesars are equal. They did a great job at this location) and very friendly service.”
“We had such a great time. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. Addressed my children as if they were people and listen intently to there responses. I was so nice to eat inside and not feel as if our band of misfits have disrupted the whole day. Will definitely eat there ”
“Pizza is always good, and cooked to perfection. Aiden is a wonderful server and is very attnetative to his customers. Great company and atmosphere, and even better food! Enjoy the pizza ”
“We came here on a breezy October day and got street tacos with asada and barbacoa as well as elotes! We were given chili while we waited and definitely should have added that to the purchase. This is hands down the best food in the area with extremely friendly staff!The elote is a must get!”
“Been going here with my family for years, always such an amazing atmosphere and amazing food that comes to the table so fast. The food is a whole other world of amazing, the Breakfast Nachos were so unexpectedly delicious and was a great way to start the morning. The location is also so beautiful by the water.”
“So I've spent 3 weeks here in Tawas in total and we tried so many of their restaurants and this one has been our absolute favorite! I ordered the brisket tacos & tomatoe soup and my best friend ordered the fried calamari & French onion soup. EVERYTHING was delicious!! The French onion soup was definitely a 5 star from her. Also the drinks are so so good too. I ordered the BEES KNEES & she ordered the FLOWER FUSION. both were super yummy! I highly recommend this place.”
“Stopped by today after seeing their roadside sign. Wish I got her name, but the woman that helped me was wonderful! Guided me through recommendations. The speciality grinder was perfect! Wish I lived closer to Tawas to visit again!”
“If I could give this 6 stars, I would! This place was absolutely incredible. Even though the breakfast hour was packed and super busy, everyone was so kind and wonderful. Awesome food, good vibes, and incredible service! We had such a great experience went there another time for dinner. Second visit was just as wonderful.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu and great atmosphere”
“I am only giving 4 stars because they lost my wedding cake order and when I went to pick it up it wasn't made. Complete panic set in then Laurie said she would have it done in time and did it half price for the inconvenience. I thought rushing it would compromise the quality but it was beautiful and moist. Big hug to her for her immaculate decorating skills! It was a huge hit!”
“After having many bad TB experiences in Michigan this location was honestly refreshing and one of the best we've had in a long time.Food was quick after ordering in the touchscreens, hot and correct first time.If you visit during the holiday period, check out the lovely decor the staff have put together including the cute village on one of the tables.Definitely recommend if you're heading up north or home!Parking: Not the largest amount of parking and it's a little odd leaving through the drive thru lane but easy enough to find a space”
“Went at 1:30 Sunday June 18. I was a long wait but only because there was only on employee. That said, she was very fast and efficient, she also had a great attitude about it and was very nice and helpful. Wish I had gotten her name to mention here.”
“The girl who made our food was a fill-in from the other Sunway in town she said. She was stressed as nobody had showed her anything, and she couldn't ring up sales on the register, but she remained cool, calm, collected, pleasant, and sweet.”
“My wife and I had "The Melt" sandwich at lunch and I have to say it has the best sandwich we've ever had!! Brisket with Gruyere and pimento cheese on sourdough, fantastic.”
