Restaurants near Hawk Ridge Golf Course

We enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner with Artisan! The experience was exceptional; one of the best dining experiences I've had this year. Our waiter, Giovanni, was knowledgeable, and professional. The food far exceeded my expectations. The only aspect of the evening that was not perfect was due to the fact that our waiter was pulled to serve a large party during our meal, and we saw very little of him after that. No one asked if we wanted coffee with our dessert or refilled water glasses at our table. However, I understand that this was a holiday, and it was clear to see that the staff was working very hard, and probably somewhat exhausted. I will definitely visit Artisan again.

Food and value were excellent as always. Our waitress, Liz, was outstanding. The best happy hour in all the Northern Lower. The service and quality never waivers, always excellent.

Service was attentive. Large selection of different brunch items from omelettes to salads, pasta and carving stations. Excellent desserts too!

Their special was 3/$60 which included an appetizer, entree and dessert. Chocolate raspberry martini 10/10. Butternut squash bisque 9.5/10 should have asked to omit the goat cheese. Entree was John Cross whitefish 10/10. Dessert NewYork cheesecake 10/10. We were a party of 5. The environment was a little too quiet for our liking. We usually like to do a lot of talking and laughing, which we still did, but felt we had to keep it down a tad. The rest of my party rated their experience 9 to 10 as well. Definitely recommend this place if you’re thinking about going.

This is our favorite restaurant in Traverse City and we always dine here for the special occasions in our life. All of their wait staff are awesome, but Mary is our favorite! If you’re looking for a wonderful experience, try The Boathouse….summer or winter!
