“Has always been a solid option, however my wife and I were in for dinner at 8pm last Tuesday and the service and food was sub par at best. There was Zero hustle in the restaurant, claimed they were busy but the patio was maybe 3/4 full, and we were one of 4 tables inside. The vibe was completely off. Multiple servers staring at each other, while it took tables 10+ minutes to be acknowledged and have the server come to the table. Had a view of the kitchen, and there was zero hustle there either. It seemed like no one wanted to be there. Food was not good and almost inedible. We didn’t even bother complaining. If this were my first time there, I would never go back. However I know that it’s not normal. We were highly disappointed.“

I have had almost everything on the menu and you cannot go wrong with any of the choices. They know me by name when I walk through the door. The pickles are to die for. The turbo sauce is a must have and the tots are always so crispy. I am drooling just thinking about it. Thanks for all you do for your team & customers!“

“Awesome place to grab a bite after a round of golf. Also, in case you didn't know, the grill room at the moors is open to the general public. However, the golf course is still private. The best times to visit the grill room if you don't want to be around a bunch of golfers is Wednesdays and Fridays as Tuesdays and Thursdays are leauge nights for the mens golf leauge. I would suggest making a reservation on either Wednesday or Friday a few days in advance. Also, Wednesdays are why cook Wednesdays and you get 30% off your bill. I would highly recommend this place if your looking for something different to try in portage michigan.“

As soon as we walked in manager and 2 staff immediately left to the kitchen with no acknowledgment. 5 min later hostess came to us and said there was a wait in the kitchen of 5-10 min and would not seat us! There were several open tables so why not at least seat us?“
