We had a fabulous meal here! The staff was super friendly and fun, we learned a lot about the winery chatting with Andrew. Just made for such a nice evening. Highly recommend the Hanger Steak and the shrimp was also delicious!

We always love coming here for dinner and especially for special celebrations. The food is outside and hands down best steak ever! Our server Gio was attentive and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Excellent service by young man and our server. Unfortunately, I didn’t catch either of their names. Chicken chili is delicious with a southwest flair!

This is such a favorite for us! The students create delicious meals with creativity, presence and passion. Every bite is delicious and created as an edible symphony of flavors. They put so much of themselves into the menus they create, prepare and serve every single time. The restaurant location on Traverse Bay is breathtaking as well. I cannot say enough about this dining experience and the pride each student takes in this marvelous restaurant!

Every year I bring up a team of volunteers to help work the Iceman Cometh event for our brand. When the event is over and we’re exhausted, we quickly get cleaned up and immediately head to McGee’s for a celebration dinner. It’s a big treat for the team and legendary because of the restaurant’s ambiance, coupled with the quality of the food, beverages and desserts. Thanks for taking Open Table reservations, it’s so easy and much appreciated. See you next year.
