The Manitou
4.4 / 5 (1404 reviews)

Description

Nestled in scenic Michigan, Manitou impresses with its vibrant ambience, attentive service, and delectable dishes. Patrons rave about the succulent whitefish, perfectly cooked duck, and enticing rib curls, complemented by standout sides like baked potatoes and sweet potato fries with house-made aioli. The cocktail bar also shines, contributing to the restaurant’s inviting atmosphere. While the limited parking can be a hassle, the dining experience—whether indoors or on the patio, albeit needing improvement against pests—is well worth it. Highly recommended for anyone wanting exceptional food and a memorable evening out, Manitou promises a satisfying culinary adventure.

We had a truly excellent experience at Manitou! We enjoyed the white fish and the rib curls, both of which were delicious. The service was knowledgeable and friendly. The restaurant was bustling on a Sunday night, which is always a good sign!

After about five hours of chasing the fish on our plates, my brother and I finally made it to the Manitou. We were starving like gods after being on the water all day. I know we looked a bit rough around the edges compared to the others there, who were dressed in golf attire with silver hair and an air of superiority. I couldn't help but feel that the staff might have been tired of us, perhaps viewing us as vagrants. But the experience was surprisingly wonderful. We both ordered the roasted white fish, and it did not disappoint. Overall, it was a good experience. We paid our bill at the end, although I could tell the staff might have expected us to leave without paying. Would we eat here again? Absolutely!

This is a fantastic local restaurant that may appear small from the outside, but don't be deceived—there's plenty of space inside, along with outdoor seating available in the summer. Our meal for six was delicious, and the staff was excellent, even though it was quite busy during our visit. The only downside is the parking situation, which is quite poor; they really need to create more parking spaces to avoid street parking. Aside from that, it's a wonderful place!

After 16 years of marriage, my wife and I finally found The Manitou! My wife ordered the Duck. She said it was the best Duck she has had in 22 years! I had Fish and Chips. 7 huge pieces of lightly beer battered cod, fried to perfection. For the chips , I had sweet potato fries. (Hidden tip, ask for the lemon/garlic aioli sauce they make in house to dip the fries in. Hands down the best sweet potato fries I have ever had! Our waitress was super nice and helpful with everything we needed. She was knowledgeable and quick to offer suggestions when we asked.They have outdoor seating, so bring your dog. We did!
