Kalkaska Restaurants

Great visit to the Artisan! Our server was Monica and she was amazing! My boyfriend and I are celebrating our Babymoon and they made us feel very welcome and special! I put the special occasion in my notes prior which I’m sure helped. We got the storm cloud stout and golden hour for beverages. Golden hour was non-alcoholic and DELICIOUS!!! Tasted like a creamy caramel apple drink, so good! Bread and butter appetizer. Super soft ciabbata and warm apple walnut bread. Dinner I got the scallops and my boyfriend got the braised short ribs. The caramalized onions with the scallops was phenomenal. The short ribs pasta wasn’t what we expected but it was still good! Our food took longer than expected so the chef wanted to buy us dessert! We weren’t bothered at all by the wait time, but we’re pleased with the dessert. We got the chocolate torte with the raspberry and chocolate sauce. It was to dieeeee for, so yummy!!!! Finally we finished our meal with some complimentary some sort of tea sparkling drink that was non alcoholic to celebrate our baby moon! Everything was so appreciated and tasted awesome!! 10/10 visit

What a perfect evening! Great atmosphere, delicious food, outstanding service, and overall a wonderful evening.

Your hostess was very pleasant, professional & welcomed us to Aerie Lindsey did an awesome job of taking care of us, very pleasant & checked back with us frequently asking if there was anything she could do to help us.

Wonderful dinner, salads and walleye were all prepared perfectly and tasted delicious, our server Esella took great care of us.

There was a Lions game at the same time, so it was pretty noisy in the restaurant. Also, one meal wasn’t ready at the same time with the other five, only 10 min later. Other than that, all was good - delicious food, very nice waitress.
