My partner and I took an anniversary trip to Traverse City and this restaurant looked like the fanciest of the options in the area. The service was amazing. The staff was very quick and friendly. The options at the restaurant were pretty varied. My boyfriend got the Kobe and Crab Cake and he thinks the sauce they put on the... More

Went there for the first time on Sarurday 4/27/13. Great service, your treated like familiy as soon as you walk through the door. Chef Eric comes out and greets you like you've been friends forever. Offers many helpful tips on dinner ideas. Our waitress Heidi was very polite and knowledgeable on the food and wine. While there are many expensive... More

Beautiful drive out to The Boathouse on the Old Mission Peninsula to celebrate our anniversary. The staff is welcoming, the restaurant beautiful with gorgeous views. We had a chance to try their selection on the new raw oyster bar and it was not disappointing. We tried the spring appetizer of morels and asparagus tempera and almost finished it off but... More

We have lived in this area for years and this was our fist visit to this restaurant!! The views of both bays on the way is worth the drive.Any seat in this restaurant you will have a view of West Bay!! We arrived early and they had our table waiting.We ordered the Orange Crush Martini and that was the first... More

Great menu variety. I had a Kobe beef filet with scallops and it was amazing. This would be a beautiful place for a meal on a nice, warm summer night. It is pricey, but you will have a great meal.

We have tried many different restaurants, different cities, different countries and the Boathouse was among the best we've had the opportunity to dine at. As much as the view from restaurant in the Eiffel Tower last year for our 25th anniversary was spectacular, they could have used a little help from Chef Nittolo. Make sure, whatever you do, leave enough... More

We had an amazing dinner last night at the Boathouse. Service was fantastic and the food was incredible.

First off, the setting is great for a romantic sunset dinner. That being said, the menu prices are way out of line for the area, the selection, the presentation and the quality of preparation. The "kobe" beef is OK, one of our steaks was overcooked and the flavor just isn't there. Our server was great, along with the wine, food... More

My husband and I decided to check this place out for dinner while exploring Old Mission. While the service was amazing and the food was delicious, the portion sizes were small and WAY overpriced. We were looking for a nice, sit down dinner but weren't expecting sticker shock when we got the bill. The views of the bay are absolutely... More
