“I was blown away at the special delicious dinner line up as advertised for this week! They just didn’t mention it would be one of, THE BEST dinners I have ever had. Lobster Ravioli, Halibut, Raspberry Tiramisu, a wonderful combination! Highly recommend !! Call ahead on the halibut if need be, as it’s coming in fresh! 🎣 Thank you Jodi, Adam and everyone for a great evening, so yum!”

“Great drinks, great service. The mashed potatoes are top notch! Martha was our server. She was so kind!

Excellent music, excellent atmosphere! Definitely a great place for a birthday party or work event.

I only gave them 4 stars instead of 5 because their pesto bowl was a little sparce. I could have gone for a little more than that! We had a fair amount of bread left after the pesto ran dry.

And Tanya's breasts were great!”

“My wife and I were traveling through Kalkaska with our 8 pound Chiweenie. We found Moose and Stella’s on Bring Fido and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent as well as the service. On top of that, they were very accommodating to our puppy. I highly recommend!”

“Ethanology Distillery is such a gem in Elk Rapids! Beautiful ambiance, welcoming and knowledgeable staff, and an amazing variety of beautifully crafted drinks. You can truly appreciate the detail and effort put into every cocktail. My favorite is the White Russian, and I can’t wait to try Taste of Magic next! Even more impressive is their support for local farms and businesses by sourcing local ingredients whenever possible. A must-visit spot!”

“Good coffee selection with cute names! Breakfast bagels were DELICIOUS! The sausage patty was dang near a 1/2 inch thick! Their cinnamon roll was sinful! Will definitely be back if we’re in the area again.”

“Ruthann’s did the cake and cupcakes for my wedding this past weekend and they were absolutely phenomenal! The cake is so moist and the buttercream is so airy. It’s not overly sweet either which I really liked. The cake was designed beautifully and everyone really loved the cupcakes. We even got coffee from them the day after, I am not a big coffee fan (especially hot) but it was really good too!”

My husband had the house salad followed by the special, ribeye with leek butter-delicious, I had the onion soup with tenderloins with demi glacé. The crème brûlée finished an amazing meal. Good ambiance and fast service”

“I have been ordering olive burgers for years now. Every time I go to Kalkasa. Last Friday myself and three friends all had burgers. The meat pattie was not the usual. It looked like something from Gordon’s or Sam’s. Tasteless. I can get a better tasting burger at a chain restaurant. For the price I expect a burger like the ones (3) I had every time before. Next time I’ll ask if they’re still using the same crappy meat I had last time I was in. If so, then I guess I’ll order some appetizers for dinner. Hard to screw that up! 🫰🏻”

“Best Pizza in Kalkaska. Try their Pulled Pork Pizza 10/10”

“There are several pizza options around and after tonight Papa K’s will be at the top of my list. Excellent “pizza pocket” and the normal pizza is pretty great as well. We also got some chicken strips, which were pretty decent.”

“We loved our food!! It was our first visit. We will come back soon!!!”

“Their food is so good! My new favorite food place at the Northwestern Michigan Fair! The staff is super friendly too. I had the jalapeño popper grilled cheese. Yum!!”
