Roadhouse Mexican Bar & Grill

The food was great. Seated by a friendly hostess. Server was really nice. Had tamales for an appetizer, and chips and salsa. We both had the combination azteca platter which included a chicken enchilada, taco and poblano. The chicken was cooked really well, not overcooked. Taco was seasoned perfectly. The poblano and mole sauce was delicious. Service was great.  Really great experience. Will definitely be back. Tried this restaurant because of an up north live deal. Glad we did, happy return customers!

For Benzie County this is a pretty great spot to eat. The food is good, not great but still tasty and satisfying. I am a fan of tex-mex, and to have this eatery right here in this vacation town is awesome. I would recommend it to anyone coming to the area. I'm giving it four stars because you can't find a place as good as this for miles around.

After our 2nd attempt to eat here (yes, we gave them  chances) I had to write a review. I live & work nearby in tourism and I will make sure I steer everyone clear of this place from now on. They used to have a great hostess/manager but she is gone and the new one clearly doesn't like people. Great job owners did with that.
August 2012 we chose this place for their outdoor seating for our group of 15.  Our group arrived but we were waiting on 2 more to which they REFUSED to seat or even put us on a list until everyone was there. When the other 2 arrived they seated us...at separate tables at opposite ends of the patio. Seriously. The food was average which is not the norm for them because they have awesome food however they are clearly not equipped to handle crowds with only the ability to prepare hot fresh food when they are slow. The wait staff was great the hostess was a nasty *#@ch. Restaurant Impossible would eat this place alive.
Another attempt to eat there was last week. We checked the website & called and were told they were open for business. After a 45 min drive we arrive with our family for a special birthday celebration only to find a small sign posted that said "Closed for private party". Nice. We even called.
There will be no 3d time to eat here. There are too many other choices with great customer service to be treated like this. We live in Northern Michigan where we survive on tourism & customer service. The owners had better take this opportunity to review their choice for hostess/manager & their policies because they will get no recommendation from our agency. Too bad too because years ago they were the best.
