For those Michigan people! I need to know something....

I'm in Southern Michigan, Jonesville, south of Jackson.

What is your favorite restaurant and why?

Now I need to know where I should go that is a hidden secret.

Favorite restaurant: Johnny T's in Hillsdale Love their pot roast.

Favorite hidden secret: There is a Statue of Liberty in the middle of a pond.

Evans Street Station in Techumseh is near you and has a great menu and atmosphere.The Common Grill in Chelsea is perfect,menu and service.

Either Rustica or Fandango in downtown Kalamazoo would be my favorites. Or maybe Salt of the Earth in Fennville. Or Chinn Chinn in Mattawan. All are fantastic.

If you take a trip up north, check out The Bluebird in Leland...a hidden gem...you get cinnamon rolls with your meal...ask for a window table when you make a reservation...very peaceful. Enjoy, EEL

There is a restaurant near by in Ohio that is in an old church building, bar/restaurant in the bottom and the sanctuary is upstairs. I have not eaten there but sounds like fun

If you are ever in Dundee where Cabela's is, there is a little Mexican place called LA Fiesta. Oh my is it good. Their salsa is addicting. Many times I have eaten there 2-3 times per week!

Michiganders--I retired to Ann Arbor and would appreciate any help you can give me. There are many restaurants, but none I am in love with.

We get to Cabela's a couple of times a year, will have to try that place!

Mackinaw City, Dixie Saloon. Good burgers. If you're on the island, The Grand Hotel still serves afternoon tea. You don't have to be a guest but proper attire is required.

Lakeside Charlie's in Cadillac. Right on Lake Mitchell so have dinner at sunset. Mountain Town for a steak in Mt Pleasant, take a train ride, too.

Gobbler's in Gaylord is a little quirky and known for their turkey dinners. Like Thanksgiving every day but the last time I was there the food was pretty meh.

Legs Inn, Cross Village (Harbor Springs) about the only ethnic food north of Detroit. Great atmosphere and guest cottages.
