19 Best American Restaurants in Ludington

“Neat little roadside take out fishery! Kinda seemed out of place. On a small residential street between homes. People park up and down the street to go in and get their fish. Only open in late spring through Labor Day.

Parking: There might have been 5-6 spots out in front of building. Most park on the side of the road.“

“Gave me a salad I didn’t ask for???

I am a regular at this culvers and the service is always fast and excellent. But i was given a salad that I didn’t order as well as what I DID order. Is culvers tryna tell me something? ???“

“Went there for the first time today and got the Sweet potato loaded tots and they were delicious! I got the “small” order and it was a hefty serving! Highly recommend this food truck. Can’t wait to go back and try some of their other food. 😋“

“We live in Ludington and have eaten here a number of times. For the most part, food has been great--hearty breakfasts and the best grilled cheese sandwiches (homemade bread!). However, the most recent dinner we had was pretty bland. Husband liked his meatloaf, but said that most of the flavor came from the gravy and that the meat lacked seasoning. My spaghetti and meatballs tasted a little too much like Chef Boy-Ar-Dee. To be fair, every other time we've had dinner there, it's been great, and the waitstaff is friendly and helpful. I'd still definitely recommend the restaurant because most of the dishes are good--and I've heard that the desserts are wonderful.“

“Come to Chef John’s for the very best breakfast, sandwiches, and the Dill Havarti soup is world class! Staff is consistently friendly and very solicitous. The quirky decor takes one to another time. Chef John’s has a local and summer following.“

“The food was very good and the waitress was very friendly. We had the smothered chicken dinner and the liver and onions dinner. They were both very good. We will be back again soon.“

“My favorite place to eat😁. Will be there Wednesday🤪“

“We had the best dinner Friday night. My husband had the prime rib and I had the caper chicken. Both were outstanding!! Our waitress was the best. We live out of town and this was our 2nd visit here. Our waitress made us feel like family and the service was the best. We love Scotty’s! Our favorite place when visiting Ludington ❤️“

“My mom and I visit Ludington at least once a year during the summer. Stopping at the House of Flavors is a MUST, and we usually stop in for breakfast and dinner. 😂 No need to go anywhere else!
We were in again last weekend, and as always, everything was perfect.
The food was on-point, the restaurant was clean, and the service was friendly and professional. Shout out to Andrew for providing exceptional customer service! Looking forward to next year's visit.“

“Great breakfast, friendly staff.“

“Met old friends here for dinner. The food was delicious and service was outstanding!
Since we hadn't seen our friends for over a year, when they closed we asked if we could stay a little longer. They let us stay for over 45 minutes, never once pestering us or bothering us.
Would definitely recommend!“

“Love the garden too! Great place to hang out.“

“I went into Applebee’s with my family the other night and the whole experience was AMAZING! We were greeted by a gentleman named Garrett, he was very polite and worked with us to find a table very kindly. There was a bit trouble finding the right table as it was very busy, but a manager (I believe her name is Janna) helped us very kindly. She was sweet and made sure that we were at a table to fill our hungry bellies ASAP. Such a respectable and kind person. As we were sat and ate, our server Melissa was extraordinary! She made sure we had refills when we needed them, made sure our food was out on time and was extremely kind through the whole process. Love this Applebees and the workers there!!!!!!“

“Its a must stop for us when were in town, we love the staff even though one person should not be running the bar and taking out food. Many things get lost in the chaos like condiments or napkins or refills. Awesome old bar atmosphere though. Lots of room for billiards and beer pong.“

“They feature some great Michigan-brewed beers & ciders. Bartenders are always knowledgeable about what they serve. Thumbs up to The Mitten!“

“Many beer options, cider, as well as cocktails. Theres a lot of can options and if something isn’t pre canned the bartenders have no problem making some up for you. Great food! Michigan Cherry Chicken Salad, Brussels sprouts, loaded fries, or a Pesto Chicken pizza are delicious! Everything was so great the many times I visited, when the opportunity arose, I decided to put in an application to a top restaurant in the area.“

“A wonderful place to enjoy dining for the whole family

Parking: Plenty of parking for everyone right there

Kid-friendliness: I see them make the children smile

Wheelchair accessibility: I see handicap getting in and out with no difficulty“

“Out for a girls’ weekend, we had passed by this place earlier during the day and noticed it was packed. We all know that’s a good sign, right? So, we decided to stop in rather late that night for dinner and drinks. Luckily, the kitchen was still open! The bartender and our server (the sweetest girl ever visiting from Romania) were wonderful.
The Blueberry mules were delicious! Our late night dinners consisted of some pretty amazing birria tacos and Colorado Nachos. We also couldn’t resist dessert to go and let me tell you…don’t pass up on that cheesecake flight!“

“I read the reviews here before choosing a spot in Ludington for our anniversary dinner. I was impressed with such high reviews, and we went last night. We were seated downstairs at a booth, and our waitress was extremely kind. The atmosphere was very relaxing. We don't like crowds, and while there was clearly a lot of fun being had upstairs, we were enjoying the quiet on the first floor. Once we ordered our food, it only took 15 minutes to arrive at our table, and the combination of flavors was heavenly!! We each ordered a different burger and requested that they be each cut in half. We both got to enjoy the succulent flavors of both combined with the most amazing fries I've ever eaten! We upgraded to the garlic parmesan fries, and they were worth every penny! We will DEFINITELY be returning.“
