The Boathouse Restaurant is a gem located on the scenic Old Mission Peninsula overlooking Traverse Bay. The ambiance remains bright and lively, with comfortable seating and spacious tables for two. The menu features outstanding dishes, including the duck appetizer, halibut main dish, and chickpea cakes, alongside unique options like Surf n Turf for 2, which includes perfect steak and lobster tail. Guests have enjoyed the super salad and delicious mushroom soup as well. The servers are knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, making excellent recommendations and pairing wine with meals. The restaurant offers stunning views of Lake Michigan, creating a perfect atmosphere for a delightful dining experience. With its exceptional food, excellent service, and beautiful setting, The Boathouse Restaurant is highly recommended for discerning diners. The menu is small, but every item is made with perfection. The steaks are the best in Michigan, and the Surf n Turf for 2 is a must-try. The oysters and caviar were great. The restaurant is gorgeous and beautiful during sunset. The staff deserves a round of applause for perfecting the art of true fine-dining with an impressive menu, stupendous ambience, and above and beyond service.
