Pick Chowhound!
November 15, 2022

Chowhound catered our wedding and it was the best decision we made for our night. The staff was incredible and worked seamlessly to make everything perfect and we got so many compliments from our guests and how friendly and professional all of the servers were.
But, the highlight was the FOOOD! I don't know how John and his staff do it. Our venue did not have an onsite kitchen, so we were nervous about the quality of dinner being compromised - somehow it was even better than on our private tasting day. Every single guest plate was plated beautifully and tasted perfect, which we know because I think every single guest told us how amazing their dinner was.
We highly recommend the tomato bisque for any occasion, truly was the highlight of our dinner and by far the best bisque/soup we have ever had.

Thank you to the entire Chowhound Team!

Amazing Food with Taste
October 30, 2021

We were looking for a restaurant when we stumbled upon the Chow Hound. We tried the pizza and it was delicious. The pricing was reasonable, and the staff was pleasant. I highly suggest this restaurant to anyone searching for a place to dine when there isn't much else nearby.

I have shopped at Chow Hound in Grand Haven for a couple of years. Many times I leave empty handed due to out of stock. Most recently I needed to purchase dog food. Again they were out of stock, but offered to special order what I needed. My first thought was great, then I was told it would take a week. So I went to Chewy for significant savings and received the items the next day.

Not Satisfied
October 28, 2020

The menu is very short with the main course. They were tasteless. Mushrooms were not properly cooked. It is expensive too.

This site is pretty much a site where people can go to get a review or suggestion for the best Restaurants & Bars in a certain area. I have yet to use this site but will be putting it in my bookmarks just in case I ever go out to eat again I can see what people think about the Restaurants & Bars in my area before making a choice.

Now that everyone knows that Yelp is a totally fake site with fake reviews and business are finally suing yelp, I have been using Chowhound to find the best places to eat. Very solid reviews and the people on the site are real and not plants by business owners and competitors. Just real reviews by real people... unlike yelp. Yelp's new tag line should be fake reviews by fake people.

Much better than lame YELP website. Yelp has become overrun with fake reviews and now businesses are doing a class action lawsuit against yelp for all of the extortion yelp does to make money. Chowhound is a much better place to go. Great reviews and a better community for real foodies as opposed to the yelpers who just want to write for the sake of people reading their reviews.

This site is a great way to find out how locals view the food scene of a place you are visiting. I recently visited Toronto, and a little time spent on Chowhound helped me find some great bakeries.
