New American Restaurants in Mackinac Island, MI

“Great food! An unexpected find in the U.P.!“

“We really enjoyed eating here . And we are very thankful to our nice server Cornell for giving us a great service. And we enjoyed our appetizers that we ordered.“

“The food is always awesome! My husband literally has talked about it since last year! He finally got his hamburger and fries he waited a year for and i got the pasta salad. We loved it!!!“

“Delicious and great service! Our new favorite spot for lunch or dinner on Mackinac! We had the chicken fingers (they're supposed famous for their chicken fingers and now we know why!) and the white fish and chips. Both were outstanding - flavorful and fall apart tender! Their fries were exceptionally delicious - salty and with a light subtle seasoning we loved! The service was phenomenal - helpful and friendly. Lovely place right on the water!“

“We have made Kingston Kitchen an annual dinner location while visiting Mackinac Island. The jerk chicken fettuccine alfredo is a must!! My husband had the bbq fried chicken and is still talking about how great it was! Great food plus a friendly atmosphere with a great waitstaff. Highly recommended.“

“Bistro on the Greens is such a peaceful place; beautiful lake views and none of the downtown chaos. It’s the kind of spot where you can actually breathe.

The food is solid, the drinks are well-priced, but honestly, the staff is what makes it. Super friendly, warm, and they really make you feel welcome without trying too hard. You can tell they actually care.

Great place to just relax and enjoy the vibe.“

“Great food and drinks !! Our waitress was amazing for the second year !!“

“We just got married at Mission Point on July 4, 2025 and had the best experience!! Julie Suddon and Charlotte Mills and the entire staff were incredible. Julie was super responsive and sweet from start to finish. Super easy to work with and just a nice person. She transitioned us to Charlotte Mills to do the actual planning and the transition was super smooth with tons of communication. Charlotte was equally impressive. Her communication was great from start to finish as well and fantastic for our rehearsal and the day of the wedding. Just super smooth from touring to actually getting married. We were so thankful for the wonderful and professional communication which eased any stress we could’ve otherwise had! We are so happy we decided to choose Mission Point and recommend anyone do the same if looking to get married on Mackinac Island!! Food was great, bartender was great, the vendors were chose were all on the suggested vendor list which made things super, super easy! Just so smooth, cannot say that enough! Thank you for making our wedding day perfect and for making the planning so fun and easy! Julia and Chris McAlpine❤️“

“We very much enjoyed our time at The Grand Hotel. The front porch was amazing for afternoon drinks and relaxing. Shout out to James Tan, our absolute favorite server! We stayed at The Grand with friends for a week! We enjoyed meals at the Jockey Club and loved The Woods!! The staff was mostly attentive, I think the concierge team could do a bit better at being nice. The only complaint I have is dinner in the main dining room. We wanted the experience and got all dolled up one night. Drinks on the porch were great! Dinner was terrible and the service was terrible. I understand it’s a commitment and that’s part of the experience, but our waiter never came around and asked how our meals were after serving us and waited too long between courses. I could see him having a good time laughing and flirting with a coworker when he should have been attending to his patrons. I would recommend The Grand! We absolutely had an amazing week. I would never have dinner in the main dining room again. There are too many great restaurants on the island. You don’t need to settle for bad food and service.“
