Best Restaurants for Groups in White Lake

The food was outstanding, the ambience lovely and serene, the service was impeccable. So often "fine dining experiences can take too long, but this was perfectly balanced. We were in and out in about 90 min, which was just the right combination of attentive but unobtrusive. It is pricey though, so be prepared for that.

Food and Service were excellent. We went for lunch on a Wednesday, and it was crowded, Glad we had an Open Table reservation. My wife had the Grilled Shrimp appetizer as her main and I got the Diavola Pizza (No. 8) as my main. They were both great and large enough for us to both have a meal for take home. We finished up with the Pumpkin Gelato as perfect desert for this time of year. Our Server, Katherine F, was outstanding.

We were seated at a high top for 2 people that overlooked the kitchen. My wife and I are average sized humans and we felt the table was a little cramped for shared plates, but this was the only negative thing to say about our evening. The service was outstanding with napkins, plates, and cutlery replaced with each course. The restaurant was filled with conversation and some fun music, about what you would expect with shared plates being the main theme. The drinks were great, the view from our table was superb. We had a look in on the open fire grill and the stone oven while also being able to watch the bartenders put on a show making cocktails. Food was top notch and came out spaced perfectly. We had the beef tartare, Carrots, octopus, and duck. This was an excellent date night, anniversary meal (if you’re ok with loud) or a great double date, I think 4 people here fits the menu size for their shared plates pretty well.

We had a wonderful dining experience. It was our first time at Prime29 and we were celebrating a birthday. Many great choices - we wished we could do a sampler of every appetizer! We each had one of the nightly specials - Scallops and Halibut. Both were delicious. Steak next time for sure. Our waitress was great - very attentive and helpful on suggestions. We were surprised with a delicious piece of birthday cake and candle at the end of the dinner without even asking for anything. Exceeding our expectations.

Delicious food, and a great beer menu. Kind of a cool location above a market. Would love to come back on a weekend when it's a bit livelier. We went on Wednesday evening before a concert at Pine Knob.
