Chicken Cordon Bleu, server was rude. I understand why the place was empty. Food was horrible. To say the least.

The price was wrong. May be my personal bias, but the food here is kind of average... maybe I am just used to food other than American food.
Good service though, they are nice

I love family style dining, meaning dishes you might make at home or dishes your parents used to make. That's the kind of restaurant we search for. Well, let me tell you, there were lots of options on their menu. We were there for lunch so I had the wrap that is pictured. I love club sandwiches, I hate hard bacon. I have to tell you, this was the best club sandwich/wrap I have ever had. The meat was very flavorful, and the bacon was cooked perfectly. We drove from Clare and we will be back. Oh, I almost forgot, I had a piece of coconut cream pie. I hate greasy pie crusts. I have to say, that this pie was wonderful. Almost as good as my mom used to make. The selection of pies was large, my daughter had lemon meringue. The slices are large and the price was fair. My waitress was attentive and friendly.

I am not a picky eater or a complainer, but I had to post my experience, today.
I ordered the cod dinner (carry out), fries and onion rings. All of the food was wet with oil, soggy and inedible. I returned the order. When it returned, it was over cooked and the fish was like cardboard, as it had been put back in the deep fryer! How does a cook return greasy, soggy food to a fryer the second time?! I had enough and threw it out. Waste of money and bad, bad cook’s choice to correct the situation.
The wait staff was really polite and apologetic.
I was a regular here, but I will never return.

Drove through Houghton Lake looking for a place to eat. This place had a few cars, but we went a bit further. Decided to turn around & go back there.
In that short time, there were no more parking spaces, and every table was taken. (This is at 2:30 p.m. / not the noon or dinner time rush!)
The wait for a table was not that long, and we ordered. We both ordered cod, and oh my gosh...the size of the filets! Theyvwere hanging off the plate. I wasn't thinking about leaving a review, and didn't take a pictue.
I ordered two filets, my nephew ordered 3. Both of us could notfinish our meal. Also their Cole Slaw is very very good. I will definitely go back to this restaurant. The only thing I need to mention that was wrong is that we did not get any rolls or bread, but we definitely didn't need it. The Seasoned Curly Fries are awesome too!
My nephew was unable to finish his meal & asked for a to go box.

Garrett’s Place has been here long before I moved here over 25 years ago so unless you have good food you won’t make it this long in this town! Burgers and fish are great and so are the other menu items. There’s a large selection of food to choose from! This is a small but friendly and accommodating restaurant and take out orders are always on time. My husband and I order take out frequently as well and it never disappoints!

I ate at Garrett's yesterday for the first time with my cousin. We had a wonderful waitress who was helpful & patient too.
We ate chicken tenders & the special of a chicken salad sandwich with soup & onion rings. It was all good, but the croissant was dry, so the waitress brought mayo. Also, took pie to go which was very good. Will be back for sure.
