AMAZING! A must-try restaurant on Mackinac Island! I admit, it is a little pricey,but the food, the atmosphere,and the views are totally worth every penny! We went there for lunch and sat on a patio/deck. The views were spectacular, plus our kids were able to run around on the beach, which was an extra bonus. The cocktails we ordered were so good! We knew we were in for a treat, but the food truly hit the mark! The shrimp and asparagus salad was refreshingly yummy, the steak sandwich, as well as the whitefish sandwich were really tasty. We absolutely loved their french fries (one of the best I’ve had!), their sauces (horseradish, tartar), and their flourless almond and orange cake. So good! If you’re looking for a great place to relax by the water while having a beautifully presented meal, try the Carriage House, and you will not be disappointed!

Sat at the bar (didn’t have a reservation this time) and enjoyed lively interactions with the well traveled bar tenders and locals. The quality of light and color that come in through the patio windows makes this place feel like everything great about being on Mackinac Island! French onion soup and asparagus salad were the perfect light lunch I needed to fuel another pedal up the Grand hill.

My husband and I went for dinner, the food was fantastic. The view was spectacular. We ordered oysters they were so dry and small. But our main dishes were tasteful.

Dog-friendly, beautiful views, and amazing staff! We had a fantastic, lazy lunch on the back patio gazing out at the water. Our waitress, Jackie, was great and very accommodating to our dog. The moscow mule was one of the best I’ve ever had! Everyone in my party had good things to say about their meals. Pricey but worth it.

We enjoyed a wonderful evening celebrating my wife’s birthday. Our server was personable and attentive, every dish was delicious and prepared to perfection, and the setting was just stunning. We also appreciated the warm, professional hosts who were able to accommodate us for dinner significantly ahead of our reservation when our plans for the evening changed. We can’t wait to be back next year.

Excellent food and service – my server was Alina and she was excellent. The salad special and fish special were made perfectly. The real bonus are the views of the Straights of Mackinac, lighthouses, and water from the restaurant’s patio and dining rooms with big windows to accommodate the view. Walking distance to downtown area/ferry docks.
