“First time eating here. The host was super friendly and nice. Loved their pizza. Definitely recommend and will be going again”

“I grew up in this town but left in 1985. I’ve lived in California since and have eaten at a lot of great restaurants including the Laundry, Chez Panisse, Slanted Door and Mr Chows to name a few. This without a doubt rank's right there. I honestly never thought I’d have a decent thing to eat in this town other than bar food but now I know exactly where it is. If you’re hungry for something exceptional look no further. I have never liked mushrooms, but the mushroom toast was my favorite dish. I can’t believe I’m saying it. Thank you Jen and to the staff for a great evening Looking forward to going back.”

“First time here and it was delicious!!! Fresh, fast , tasty food and friendly service! I don’t make it to TC often, but I’d make a trip for this place when I do!”

“I treated my friends to dinner tonight and the service was just as fabulous as the food. Our server was Kateri (Kat) she took great care of us and also recommended some of the food items on the menu. Everything was delish. We are definitely going back. Thanks Kat for your great hospitality 😁”

“delicious! and friendly staff!”

“First and foremost, our waitress was April. Y'all, all I can say is, she is one of the most customer minded waitresses I have ever come across. She knew her menu, what was going on in the restaurant as far as customers go, and was very pleasant and not in a fake way. The food was very very good. I had the Chicken Alfredo. Hands down the best I've had. For dessert, it was the Apple Carmel Cheese Cake. OMG sooo good. If you haven't tried the Flying Noodle, I would highly recommend you do.”

“A great dining experience!”

“Slabtown is one of our must go to stops,everytime we are in TC..the staff are best I've seen ..quality of food top notch ..hot fast ..filling.. no better burger In TC..WISH I HAD A SLABTOWN BY ME...LOL”

“Amazing! Went in to enjoy breakfast with my girls and couldn’t have been more impressed. The food is to die for!! The atmosphere is perfect. The staff is great!. I would highly recommend going in, you WILL NOT be disappointed”

“The food was amazing! We really enjoyed talking to the owner /chef, all around great experience!”

“We stopped in for lunch the other day! The nachos and blue gill tacos were great! Cute spot! Great service…we don’t mind the scan to order or ordering at the bar!”

“Red Ginger is the full experience. The staff (Randy is our favorite server), drinks, food and atmosphere are simply put… AMAZING! They keep great records for when we call to make reservations. We always get the table we like. They are on top of allergy sensitive issues and are willing to adjust menu items (when they can) so we have more options. We never feel rushed or like they are trying to push us out for another sitting. This is our favorite restaurant to visit!”

“Janelle’s Famous Chili at Folgarelli’s Market & Wine Shop The kidney beans feel like they were raised on a foggy hillside somewhere that requires a ferry and a strong grandmother. The white beans absolutely spent time overseas. They’ve seen markets. They’ve heard arguments in languages we don’t speak. Then the beef shows up like it owns shoreline. This is Old Mission Peninsula cattle energy. These cows had lake views and a seasonal schedule. They were not rushed. They were probably discussed at dinner parties. You can taste a level of calm in this beef that only comes from animals that knew exactly where they stood in the world. Tender, rich, and behaving like they had a wine club membership before becoming chili. The whole pot has depth. There’s balance. There’s confidence. There’s a sense that someone made this and said, “We are not embarrassing ourselves today.” Every bite feels intentional. Nothing in here is freelancing. Nobody showed up unprepared. This is the kind of chili that makes you reconsider other chilis you’ve trusted. You take a bite and suddenly every crockpot at every potluck you’ve ever attended is on notice. It’s hearty without being reckless, bold without yelling, and it fully understands what winter in Northern Michigan does to a human spirit. If this chili were a person, it owns property, has strong boundaries, and brings the good bread without being asked. If it were on the Food Network, one judge would say “layers,” one would say “this has a story,” and another would quietly try to take a container home and deny it later. Final ruling: Janelle didn’t just make chili. These beans didn’t just get invited. They were vetted. Then she introduced them to extremely well-raised local beef and let them form a coalition. The result is comfort with a résumé. If you’re at Folgarelli’s and you see this chili, you get it immediately. Some foods are lunch. Some foods are dinner. This one is infrastructure.”

“The food is so amazing. These guys are so consistent with it. You could never hope to eat a better burger.”

“awesome playlist, friendly staff, food pretty good”

“Our office did Chubby Unicorn's lunch catering and it did not disappoint! Amazing sandwiches, beautiful salad and super tasty treats. Very impressive and made me look like a hero to my co-workers. :)”

“Omg seriously the best cookies we’ve ever had !! Hands down! Way better than Crumbl and Insomnia! Anytime we are in TC we will definitely stop here for cookies! We’ve tried many kinds and they are all amazing!”

“Great! Love the tofu scramble. Re potatoes- suggestion: they used to be better; now to small, get overcooked too easily. No flavor.”

“My kids say the pancakes and potatoes are out of this world! Perfectly cooked bacon, fresh squeezed OJ. For those with a more diverse palate don’t pass up on the stuffed pepper. Kimmy took great care of us!”

“Mama Lu's catered our wedding with their starters, sides, and taco bar, and it was a huge success! They were easy to work with from the start, and we were able to customize and choose the taco bar and offerings to fit the needs of our guests! 10 out of 10 stars! ❤️🎉 Thank you!”

“We loved taproot!! Food was amazing.! Great for gluten free and vegan. Even had a small dog menu! Our pup had a burger for dinner and our waitress was fantastic and welcoming to us and our dog! Thanks for a great experience! We will be back”

“Great brews and friendly staff! What could be better except free beer 🙄🤩”

“This is our favorite restaurant in Traverse City. I’ve dined here many times times over the past several years and have been impressed each and every time. The food is always above expectations and on every visit there is something new to try. The atmosphere is cozy and never rushed. From the gracious owner, to the exceptional servers and the amazing bartender (she really is the best) they always make you feel like family. If you haven’t been there you are missing out on a wonderful dining experience.”

“Delicious calamari !! The best I have ever had ! Great service provided Comfortable chairs and atmosphere we love the fires burning outside on the patio Nice date night dinner with my husband”

“This place was great! The bloody mary was delicious. We had the spinach dip with pita chips and tortilla chips. Tasted great. The wedge salad was so good. My husband had the chicken tenders and waffle fries which he thought were delicious. The wait staff were so friendly too. We will definitely be back!”
