Larry Burke, 1986

Our Story:

In 1983, our restaurant was born when Mary and Larry Burke, a couple united by their love for food, purchased the place we now call home. Larry, a skilled chef, took a bold step to follow his dream, bringing his culinary vision to life with his wife, Mary, and their four children by his side. From the very beginning, a family-friendly atmosphere and a menu crafted with passion became the heart and soul of our establishment.

 

Now, more than three decades after Larry's passing in 1992, our dedicated staff and family continue to carry on his vision. Our motto, "Bring the family home," remains as true as ever, because we believe that nothing brings people together like the peaceful beauty of Lake Cadillac and delicious meals made for everyone to enjoy.

"All around good quality food and generous portions. Recommend the prime stack. Staff very attentive. Beautiful setting by the lake. All 70s music for me was an awesome perk"

"What a true little gem of family restaurant nestled up in Cadillac. If the weather is good, I recommend that you sit outside right on the deck by the lake. The menu is pretty big. Usually that does not bode well for quality at family restaurants, but everything we had was really top notch. The fries especially were really good and crunchy and hot. French onion burger and patty melt were both really, really good. The service was great and the prices were cheap. You can really feel the family-owned vibe to the restaurant. This place is clearly cared for and effort goes in to continuing on the tradition of a 1950's sockhop-style diner."

from Julie

"Great atmosphere, pretty view. The food was pretty good. We were entertained by the bird staring another table down!

Portions were fairly generous, except for the small waffle that was served with my brothers chicken & waffles. It was the smallest homemade waffle I’ve ever seen-was an appropriate size for a child."
