Came to eat here after the Dune hike. Definitely want to order pizza here. The gluten free pizza was actually some of the best I've had! The tomato sauce tasted pure and fresh. My family had a regular pizza with no cheese, veggies, and beef. They loved it! They made a pizza with no cheese delicious and better than a regular pizza. Good for kids/ families.

Ordered a pizza "to go" this evening, and it was so bad no one wanted to eat it. It was like a Dominoes pizza before they made improvements. This place had the best pizza when Joe and Brandon were managing. Btw, $30 for medium 2 topping, and a small bag of popcorn. Shameful.

A amazing experience, the food was great. We didn't expect it to be that good. The burgers and the brussel sprouts exceeded my expectations. Julie our server was sweet and accommodating. Great location after a long hike.

Zero seasoning on the burger. Otherwise a perfectly fine local greasy spoon. I recommend the owner consider sprinkling some steak seasoning or at least a little salt & pepper on their burgers, very bland tasting. Beef is meant to be seasoned!!

Not so good. We didn't order pizza which sounds like what they're known for. I had a salmon sandwich and it was good. Fries were those nasty coated fries which I loathe. I even asked if they had regular normal potatoes for fries and she said yes. NO. Sleder's has awesome fries BTW. My husband had a Philly beef sandwich and he ate 2 bites and that was it. He eats everything without complaining so I knew it was awful. Expensive visit and next time I'll drive into Traverse City. Oh and I did send a private message to the restaurant and they didn't respond so here you go.

Definitely a go to.Parking: Great parking, close to building whether handicapped or not.Kid-friendliness: Would be a great place to take the kids or have a family night out. Pinball machines, pool table general store.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair accessible

Awesome pizzas, great gyros -- spicy chicken pita wrap is AMAZING. Overall the food is great! Even the salads are pretty inspired as well as being fresh and green. Portions are good, and the service is friendly and quick. If you're staying in Empire or just coming through you can't go wrong here even if you and your SO are in the mood for different things!
