“Fantastic Chinese food! We've been on the hunt for a decent Chinese place nearby and we finally struck gold with Mandarin House. If you're a fan of Orange Chicken, I highly recommend theirs; however, know the reviews of this dish are surprisingly polarizing.The staff is also fantastic. Super friendly and informative regarding any questions we had.”
“I really love this bakery. They did such a wonderful job with my baby shower cake and their prices are always super reasonable. I especially appreciate that their buttercream is not so cloyingly sweet that it’s difficult to eat, and this is coming from an anti-frosting gal!”

“Met a friend for lunch. He ordered a burger and onion rings. I ordered a steak sandwich and onion rings. We were both very happy with our meal. Our waitress was awesome. The building was very clean inside and out.We will definitely be back.”
“The oldest bar in Essexville. The owner even let me tour the basement. The staff is amazing. Especially Rebecca and her man is super cool. Order the perch if you’re there on a Friday night!”
“Small establishment in Essexville thats not hard to find. Friendly and on point service. Play pool, shoot darts, listen to music and just have a good time with friends and family.”
“This is our favorite local Chinese restaurant. We usually use the drive through because it is so convenient. It is best to call ahead as everything is made fresh and you may be in the drive through line as long as 15 minutes or more if you don't. Their soups are a little thick for my taste but they are quite good. The entrees are fantastic. All the ingredients taste fresh and are seasoned perfectly. The staff are exceptional and treat you with great kindness and courtesy which has kind of gone to the wayside in many establishments.”
“Hungry Howie's on Center Street in Essexville, MI has outstanding customer service, fast delivery, friendly staff, and of course phenomenal food. Can't go wrong here, really. Highly recommended!”

“Had a great experience around 9:30am Sunday morning December 17, 2023. Racks full of great looking fresh donuts, ordered two iced Capps, a dozen donuts, and two breakfast sandwiches. It’s looking like our good old Tim hortons again from a long time ago. At least today, they brought their a game.”
“Wish they had paper plates available for dine in. We were offered take way container lids instead.Parking: Very large parking area including truck and RV space.”
“So today some tool who drove a fed ex truck came in ahead of us. He was a complete j*** from the get go to the girl making the subs. I don't understand the entitlement some people feel they have?? Fed ex tool guy was in the wrong for his behavior. If he complained I can assure you...the staff did nothing wrong. He spoke to her so ignant and then walked out, it was obviousnothing she did or said wouldhave made him happy. She was delightful. I tried to make her laugh and I hope her day got better.”
“The reason for 4 ?s is the top bun of my ? withered away and had to eat half the burger like a flatbread sandwich without a top bun. I ordered the ? double ? nator. The rest of the order was superb that was my only issue.”
“The coffe here is fantastic! It's better then Starbucks. Never been disappointed with a drink. And the cinnamon buns ? I've only had the apple but it was delicious. Cant wait to try more.”

“Wow WOW WOW.... My GF saw a post on Facebook, so we made the plan and drove over an hour and made our way to Gilly's... We walked in and was a bit shocked... Not very many tables but was shockingly it was REALLY busy... So we had read and reread the post and decided that we were going to get the specials (street corn/steak taco and the steak burrito, then decided we were going to try the birria tacos and the tamales) OMG.... So awesome and great! Definitely authentic and everything was definitely homemade! She told us it would be 20 min... And now I see why! There had to have been at least 5ppl come in and pick up orders while we were waiting for our food... While there don't have a liquor license... They definitely make up for it with the quality of their food! I absolutely can't wait to go back .. thank you Gilly's crew!!! Top notch in my book.”
“My favorite pizza of all time. Our family drives over an hour and always orders extra to take home. Try the stuffed mushrooms also! Perfect and loaded with cheese and flavor! I've had nearly the entire menu and have never been disappointed in food service or company.”
“Definitely found a great place! Will return ? pulled pork Mac and cheese is fire!!!! Burban burger hits!!!!!! Service is great! Very nice and friendly. Love it here!”
“The best ice cream! It's never a bad experience here. It's a little small inside but on a nice day you can go outside and enjoy the view of the water. The staff is always friendly and is good at answering questions. The quality of their ice cream is the best because it's all made in-house and just tastes so creamy and fresh. Definitely would recommend.”

“I'm moving away from my Bay City and I can only pray that my new hometown has a place like Barque. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is so relaxing and fun, and the staff are very friendly and genuine. I highly recommend the house bloody mary, which has a variety of delicious pickled veggies. 11/10 stars.”
“My husband and I were hungry visiting Bay City and wanted some Mexican food. We've tried others in Bay City, and left disappointed. We stumbled upon this place and couldn't be more pleased. Not only was the service fast and friendly, the food was delicious. The sauce on the tamale was phenomenal, and the rice was perfect as well. My husband loved the Birria tacos. I'm a picky eater but nothing about this place left me hungry. Will be back.”
“Katie our waitress was absolutely fantastic. All the staff was great and I noticed the manager was also helping everyone including bussing!! Best experience at a local restaurant in a very long time!!! Great job!”
“Our second time here and it never disappoints great food! Great service!Wish they would update the atmosphere ...it's lame, boring and for such amazing food the environment begs for ”
“It is an awesome place. But I just watched your servers throwing a fit about guys with cameras. Then they locked the doors with customers inside and called the police. On potential customers! I do hope these servers were fired in the spot! This is unacceptable behavior!”
“I spent over 10 years working downtown Frankenmuth for every festival. St Patricks in BC has that same vibe. This staff is the best around. I know what it's like to be overwhelmed but I've never witnessed a more professional group. Everyone at Coonan's are at the top of their game. We love you!”
“We were in Bay City visiting. My wife and daughter stumbled upon Excited Goat and fell in love. They took me the next day and I too loved it. From the staff to the food and coffee hands down better than the giant coffee shops. I even bought a T-shirt and wear it with pride. Next time in town will definitely be back.”
