- SSharonNorthern Michigan / Upper Peninsula •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoEverything was very good. The Tomahawk steak is not worth $170. The butternut squash puree that can with my scallops was a tablespoon total, or less, which was also a bit disappointing. Overall, a great experience. Highly recommend and will go again.More infoAerie Restaurant & LoungePrice: Very Expensive• American• Acme•4.3
- JJamesNorthern Michigan / Upper Peninsula •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoWe wanted to enjoy our special dinner on New Year's day at one of the BEST restaurants in Traverse City on Mission Peninsula and was NOT disappointed. Was able to take in the whole atmosphere & waters view that felt comfortable & relaxing while enjoying our dinner. My husband really loved the salad & his Filet, cooked just right & it melted in his mouth. Another thing he was surprised when he order a 7 & 7 it really, really had great color not pale, like most other restaurants with drinks he has had & quality of the whiskey was superb as you would expect for an above & beyond quality restaurant. My lobster cooked perfectly, very flavorful & tender. Excellent Kahulua and cream & a scrumptious Crème Brule. All and all wonderful experience. We were delighted to enjoy our special New Year's Day dinner at a wonderful restaurant on the Mission Peninsula in Traverse City, and we were not disappointed. The atmosphere and water view were comfortable and relaxing, enhancing our dining experience. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his perfectly cooked filet mignon, which melted in his mouth, and he was pleasantly surprised by the rich color and superior quality of his 7 & 7, a marked improvement over similar drinks he's had elsewhere. My lobster was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and tender. The Kahulua and cream and the crème brûlée were also scrumptious. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.More infoBoathouse RestaurantPrice: Very Expensive• European• Traverse City•4.9
