43 Best American Restaurants near Stevensville

“Frankly, DogSlinger Offers Winning Wieners Warmer days had my wife Shelly and me jonesing for summer grub, so we decided to investigate DogSlinger, located near the corner of St. Joseph Ave. and John Beers Rd. in the heart of uptown Stevensville, Michigan. Upon entering, we were greeted with giant artsy photos of each type of dog on the menu, and our mouths immediately began to water. The wall of photos made ordering easy since we could see each type of hot dog. Conversely, it made it more difficult to order because there were so many unique dogs and sausages that we wanted to try. Per usual, we did some splitsies. We started off with the Seattle Dog, which found the Vienna all-beef hot dog nestled in a cream cheese laden brioche bun and topped with freshly cut and grilled onions and peppers. The warmth of the hot dog caused the cream cheese to soften and melt into the bun. The saltiness of the dog was nicely accentuated by the mild, sweet, and tangy hints of cream cheese. I said “Yeehaw,” when I bit into the Cowboy Dog, which was wrapped in bacon, topped with cheese sauce, BBQ sauce, and some house-made crispy onion strips…oh, and then more chunks of bacon! The hickory smoke flavor of the bacon and the sweetness of the BBQ were well balanced. You’d better saddle up before trying to rustle this beast. I never thought one hot dog could fill me up, but this was one big meaty dog! The Termintater (not a typo) is DogSlinger’s version of a loaded baked potato. Somewhere near the bottom of this creation was a hot dog suffocated by a myriad of tater tots and meat chili. Nacho cheese sauce, sour cream and their house-made Slinger Sauce was drizzled over the heap before it was garnished with fresh-sliced scallions. In football, we call this “piling on!” Of course, we couldn’t leave without having the traditional Chicago Dog. It’s hard to beat this classic when it’s made with premium ingredients. A true Chicago dog must start with an authentic Vienna Beef brand all-beef frank in a steamed poppy-seed bun and topped with neon green sweet relish, chopped onion, yellow mustard, tomato slices, a kosher spear, pickled peppers known as “sport peppers” and a dash of celery salt. Do not embarrass yourself by asking for ketchup on it. Actually, they will make it for you that way, but they may razz you a bit.“

We miss soooo much stuff because we watch your Facebook and your specials and new releases aren't posted much...... We usually only come to St Joe for Silver Harbor and would probably come alot more if Fb was updated more!!!! maybe let some of your AMAZING Staff take charge of the FB account if you aren't going to keep up on it!“

“My husband and I went there a month or so ago to try it as we live in Benton Harbor but ive never been. Soooo good. We go at least once a week now. We always get the chicken strips or the Olive burgers. I never eat hamburgers as I've never liked them but this place changed that. Im obsessed. Also their chicken strips are great! The servers and cooks are kind as well!“

“I’ve been back again and again. Highly recommend making the trip to Benton Harbor to check out a band and grab a bite to eat…or just to grab a bite to eat as they have extended their outdoor patio, and it is a cool building with a great ambiance, along with the very tasty pizza, sandwiches, and a hummus plate like I’ve never had before. So good! The acoustics in this place are on point. Fantastic sound - saw the band Full Chord last weekend. Great band, great vibe….all around good time there. Always enjoy it. Thanks, Livery folks. You’re doing great.“

“If you’re in the Bridgman area this is the place to go for all Cubs games. They also have a nice bar setup, so even in the baseball offseason, I’d recommend going there to watch your game. The staff is very friendly and they have a nice Chicago themed menu with burgers, sandwiches, hotdogs, etc.“

“Great environment and food was amazing“

“Cozy clean friendly cafe with superb breakfast. The coffee had a robust flavor, eggs cooked to specification, sour dough bread toasted to perfection and crispy smoky intense bacon. Coffee was filled as needed and even though a busy Sunday morning the staff was friendly. We will be back!“

“Fair price for now- days“

“Would give 5 stars for delicious pizza and good beer, but the music (good selections!) was extremely loud. Difficult to hold conversations. Had headache by time I left.“

“10/10 supper yummy food support local !!“

“From Chicago and every time we pass thru we stop Keep up the good work!!“

“Food was great perch lightly battered and tasty. Olive burger was quality beef not greasy and cook medium as ordered. Onion rings and cheese bite appetizers great. Our server was attentive and efficient along a pleasant and friendly personality. Definitely will return soon.“

“Great food at a great price! This unassuming restaurant is a delightful surprise. Offering an extensive menu of American standards prepared to perfection, it also offers Greek fare such as gyros and baklava and shish kabob. The parking is excellent and there are tables outside available for outdoor dining if the weather permits. Close your eyes and pretend you are on a Greek island, or at least in Greek Town in Chicago. The food is that good! Andy, the friendly Greek American owner, knows his many regulars by name. He offers take out, dining in and catering. The hot dogs are Vienna Beef-terrific! He has a hot dog cart available for your next party too.“

“fantastic burger and fries!“

“Walked in a little after 2 pm on a Monday (7/14) and they were surprisingly busy. There were two women on the floor and they were phenomenal... A bit disappointed that there was no one else there to support them but they held their own. There was a large party and then several other tables and since we were coming to relax we weren't bothered with a wait, there really wasn't much of one. Ordered the pretzel bites and cheese garlic bread appetizers which were half odd. Garlic cheese bread was fantastic!! The ladies kept our drinks replenished and we look forward to returning soon.“

“Went there tonight with a group of five very good food. I had the bomb unbelievably good and huge. My grandson had the bomb also very good son and daughter-in-law had steak. Very good. Grandson‘s girlfriend had the salmon. She wasn’t real impressed with that, but they did eat it. Service was great. We sat outside very nice place.“

“I was waiting by the hostess stands for someone to notice me. A woman walked through the door to start her shift, asked me if I had been helped. I told her no and she immediately helped me to a table, got me menus and asked about my drink.

She did an amazing job. Start to finish. The service, meal, portions down to the drink were great!

I will be back and hope she's working again! Or that I at great get that amazing service again!

Thank you!“
