New American Restaurants near Sylvan Lake, MI

“Best restaurant around with the great food! Breakfast is my favorite there!“

“Great experience. Service, food and surroundings were over the top. Porkchop was the best I have ever had. Definitely will be back. Menu changes every two weeks.“

“awesome food..awesome service“

“We enjoyed our time at the HUB. We went for a small birthday party and did the golfing simulator and bombowling. The golf simulator is not TopGolf so I’m not sure why it’s labeled as such… we had several issues with the simulator and no one knew enough about it to assist. The bombowling was fun, but at $100/hr for the lane, it’s a bit steep. We were able to get a few games in with 6 people but once it gets crowded it can be problematic with footballs flying and bouncing everywhere. Overall, I’d come back with a larger group so you can split costs evenly. Prices can start to get higher if it’s less than 4 people.“

“The food was exceptional. We ended up doing a lot of shareable items. I think the winner was the grilled asparagus, and the Mediterranean salad was off the hook. The Ahi tuna tartare needed more seasoning. The pizza was delicious. I highly recommend this location. Everything was wonderful about it, including the server who moved us to an appropriate size table to enjoy our food.“

“Birthday celebration with life long friends was perfect. Delicious food, drinks, great service, with a cozy ambience. I give Oakland Kitchen & Bar a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

That olive oil truffle popcorn should Be sold in stores, I never had popcorn this good ever and it’s to live for!!!“

“We went to celebrate our anniversary, and this place did not disappoint. The service, food, and ambiance were top notch. I ordered Ceasar salad and the filet mignon. Both were delicious. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant for a nice time and delicious food.“

“Always spot on!! The house bread and its sauces, amazing!! And had the risotto with shrimp, mushrooms, spinach and cheese. Prefect!! Server was great. You are on our list♥️“

“Great Place. My complaint. NO BLUE CHEESE DRESSING. I Had Chicken Strawberry Salad once a week. Every now and then since they quit serving Bleu cheese. Never after today when We asked the server who to address our concerns to, 2 servers pointed to the owner who picked up our plates and pretended he couldn't talk English. RUDE“

“Seafood pan bake was INCREDIBLE. Prices are high but the amount of seafood in the dish justified the cost. Waitress was a little pushy about ordering and it wasn't crowded enough to justify that. Other than that though I would definitely recommend this place“

“Great service, food and atmosphere.“

“We came here for a rehearsal dinner and we were in a private room. I was surprised that everything was on point, even with the restaurant being so busy . The food was delicious. Myra and Ashley were our waitresses and they were on top of everything . They even helped set up . We definitely will be coming back 😀“

“An attentive and friendly staff, premium cocktails, great food and a lovely atmosphere can all be found at The Birmingham Pub!“

“We are regulars at Stuffed Bun and can’t imagine not spending our Sunday morning with them. The food is always excellent and the staff make us feel like family. The food is delicious and portions are generous. A few of our favorites are the country omelette, breakfast burrito, cinnamon pancakes and chicken Greek salad. 5 stars ⭐️“

“Love the food & service here“

“Amazing dinner on a whim on our way home from Detroit. Everything (service, atmosphere, food, prices) was better than we could have hoped for. We will go out of our way to eat here again. Thanks for a great experience!“

“Last night my family and myself went to Grand Tavern for supper after a long day. Our waiter Xhorxh was absolutely amazing! Personally, I have dietary restrictions and explained to him that I am unable to have gluten, dairy, or egg. I had already pre-creeped the menu before arriving so I could find a meal that would be easy to hopefully adapt to my dietary restrictions. After explaining my restrictions Xhorxh was ON IT! He immediately spoke to the chef and the chef adapted my meal to my restrictions. Xhorxh did tell me that there could be a possible cross contamination with gluten on one of my sides and explained that they couldn’t guarantee that that one thing would be gluten free. Listen, not very often in the service industry do you come across a wait staff member or chef that made sure to cross all of the boxes. I ordered brussel sprouts as the appetizer without the cheese (I could have had three plates of that it was so good) and the cedar plank salmon and ordered two veggies as my side. IT was DELISH!!!!! Xhorxh also made sure that our drinks were constantly filled and took amazing care of our family. My MIL even made a comment after we received our meals how she really liked him as a waiter. I wished we had a Grand Tavern where we lived but unfortunately we are 8 hours away but we will absolutely be back when visiting family! ❤️“

“Our family , 3 adults, one toddler and one 4 month old, had a delicious and delightful meal on Saturday evening , Even though we arrived 10 minutes to 9 pm( kitchen closes at 9), we were graciously seated by the hostess. The server came over immediately and brought us 2 highchairs. We started our feast with ɓreadsticks and didn't have to wait long for our meals. Everything was perfect.Thanķ you for a lovely evening out! We wiĺl return soon for more of your hospitality!“

“I'm highly recommending this restaurant. The service is great, from hosts to wait staff. Great bartender that makes impeccable cocktails. Good is perfectly cooked. Indoor and outdoor seating. Large bar downstairs. All in cozy downtown Clarkston village. Ample parking 1/4 block away.“

“Very fancy and expensive restaurant. One of the few restaurants in metro Detroit (and likely the whole of Michigan) that serves Baked Alaska. They do not flame it in front of you nor does it come with sparklers like some restaurants may do. Still it was delicious. Jamie was a great waitress, friendly and in a good mood. There is no parking lot for Forrest, however after 5:30 pm and on weekends you can use the AAA Birmingham parking lot which is right next door. Very nice interior. The water glasses are small. There is a candle at the table.“

“Amazing experience. Our new place & it's super cozy❤❤❤“

“My mom was visiting from out of state and my children wanted to bring her to one of their favorite restaurants. We started off with the chicken satay appetizer. The flavors of the peanut sauce and the chili sauce go perfect together. I had the scotish salmon for my entree and it was one of the best salmons I have ever had. Our service was exceptional. Lauren and Amber went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied with everything and that our drinks were never empty. They raved about the carrot cake, so we had to try that. It was hands down the best in the area. The cake was huge we all could easily share it. We will definitely be back again.“

“Had not been here for a salad in a long time. Their Chef Salad was just as good or better than I remembered. Lots of fresh tasty vegetables, meats cheese. Freshly baked Pita Bread and Salad Dressing was just right! Waitress was wonderful! Very helpful. Happy with the price and prompt service. Highly recommend!! I will be returning a lot more regularly.“

“We dined for Sunday brunch for an intimate birthday celebration. Although nothing was provided for the birthday person, our meal was delicious, and the ambiance was very nice. The only issue was with there being so few diners, the service was still very slow. But again, the food was amazing, so we would go back again.“

“Let me just say I didn't actually go in but I placed a special order over the phone. I spoke with Adrienne and it was a great experience. She did a wonderful job, I will absolutely be going in person now.“

“Everything! Good food and great service! 😋“

“We have found our place! It’s our go-to for happy hour and for a great dinner experience! We have never been disappointed!! The staff is friendly and very accommodating!!“

“Great atmosphere and amazing food!! Nothing I don’t love ❤️“

“One of my favorite places to eat always Fresh, I’m actually here now“

“Once you make it past the gauntlet of teens and kids selling packaged snacks at the door, the array of scents at the perfume counter, and shoppers out with their children, you can find on Nordstrom’s 3rd floor a cafe with a view of the other side of the shopping center and the skywalk. Service was good and so was the food, but things get hectic, loud, and slow with an increase of customers. Highly recommend the cheddar chive biscuit warmed.“

“Having had the pleasure of visiting here on multiple occasions across a long span of time, I can say consistency is key, and that word is etched into the walls of this fine establishment, serving as one of its main ethos's.

You can visit at anytime of day, and get exactly what you ordered, how you ordered it, with rarely a deviation, and in a time of constant change, a bit of stability in your dining experience can mean the absolute world.

The service is impeccable, with the waitstaff always aware when you would like to order, when the food is ready, and when you need a refill among other things.

If you're looking for an all-around fantastic American-style dining experience and are in the area, why not visit and see for yourself.“

“I really enjoyed dining her with my daughter (11). They have a great kids menu with a variety of options. She loved her chicken tenders and potatoes and I really enjoyed the salmon salad. Service was friendly and fast. We visited on a Sunday afternoon and look forward to going back.“

“Delicious!! I've tried the beef and chicken. Both were great.“

“If you’re in Birmingham, MI, make sure to visit Townhouse. We dined outside and enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere along with fantastic drinks. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious, truly a highlight of the evening. Our server, Maya, was outstanding—she went above and beyond to ensure our table was well cared for, with impeccable timing and a genuine warmth. Townhouse offers a memorable dining experience that’s definitely worth a visit!“

“The famous steakhouse J.Axlxander's is located in the suburbs of Detroit.
Store located at 14 Mile x Orchard mall.
If you don't like red meat, I think the ``Slow Roasted Prime Rib'' is extremely delicious as it is tender, has a concentrated lean flavor, and has just the right amount of fat. Personally, I like it when I choose a baked potato as an accompaniment because it neutralizes the meatiness.“

“One of the greatest experiences I’ve had ! great atmosphere , friendly staff , tasty food .“

“great food, great service, clean and affordable“
