Reviews for Trout Town Tavern & Eatery in Kalkaska, MI
It was a very busy Saturday evening and almost didn’t go in due to the parking lot being packed. We were greeted right when we... walked in and sat. The staff worked together amazingly and the hostess was very nice. The food was great and a good drink menu.It’s a great place for dining with family or a date night. Read more
We were excited to try this place. I usually never bash on local restaurants but… It started off pretty decent. 20min wait... until we were greeted at the front, then the drinks… they gave us the wrong drinks and then the lemonade and raspberry drinkboth tasted like water with a slight hint of syrup, our cheeseburger had no cheese(both orders), the perch was not very crispyand served on the cooler side with the insides being a bit mushy, my rootbeer float that was supposed to come in a ice cold mugcame in a plastic cup, and our server kept forgetting to bring us water(they asked us if we needed anything and we would asknicely for water). Bummed about the experience since there aren’t to many options around the area on the way home from lookingat the fall colors. The best thing we had there was the Dirty Tots! Read more
We stopped by here on our way to somewhere else. The lunch specials were all different Ruben sandwiches. We each got one and... they were excellent. Very meaty. The fries were perfectly done. Nothing was greasy or soggy. Our waitress, Shantal, great.Friendly and efficient. The water and coffee tasted great, too! Everything was spotlessly clean, including the bathrooms. Read more
Shout out to Gina! Excellent service! Perch was amazing. Just crispy and delicious. Ribs were very good. Needed a... little more sauce. Cole slaw was Excellent, great seasonings! Read more
Great food. Both the main dishes and the dessert were very good. Smoke meat was very moist and flavorful. Will go again
This place is pretty good. We got a wonton wrap mozzarella stick for starters. Then the bbq platter and the mac and... cheese. Presentation is done well. Food has flavor and is hot on arrival. For being off the beaten path this was a greatfind. Price for meal with drinks was $60, not bad at all during these inflation times. Read more
Service was great! They had Oberon on tap in a nice frosted mug. Lake trout was pretty good. It was cooked well and nice and... flaky, but could use a little more seasoning on the batter. Hickory smoked pork was tender and good but was lacking in the smokyflavor. Great large parking area for RV! Read more
This is a must visit. The pulled pork and sauces ere some of the best I've ever had. I'm a coleslaw connoisseur and can I say... this is by the "BEST" I've tried. I should have ordered to bring some home. My husband got to smothered brisket, that did notdissapoint as well. Would visit again hands down! There sodas on tap are pretty good too, I'm not normally one for the"homemade" sodas. But I would drink again. Read more
