There were four of out for Lunch so we had 4 shareables and they were perfect!! Two of us had bloody Mary’s with lunch and they also were amazing!! The only thing we were missed having was the Brussel sprouts! We were so sad to hear they won’t be back on the menu. Great place and Robin was such a great server!!

Another place put here for the Fips. They’re a very good reason you won’t find drink prices anywhere ! $15 mediocre cocktails not my thing! Better be a lot more craft and punch for $15 seeing I can get a dinner for that’s. Also in order for you to be a brewery you actually have to brew some beers. Or at least have a nicer selection of some beers! Only thing saving is some good local entertainment. remember this is Michigan not Downtown Chicago

Food was good but the service was bad. Had a party of 10 and when it was time to pay for the bill the waitress told us we can't do separate checks, that she could only do 3 separate cards or all on one card. Should have told us that in the beginning but instead because she didn't want to do the work she made us do the work of paying back our friend who put it on his card. While all that going on we see another table same size of party have all separate checks. Will never be back nor will any of my friends. Bad service all around and ruined our good time celebrating our birthdays.

Food is decent, especially the fish tacos and apps, but people go here for the view & atmosphere. Can’t beat the lake view and inside is always poppin. We take all our visitors here because it’s the coolest

The food is excellent! Everyone rated it a 4.5 to 5 stars and would easily return. The beer is excellent as well. My only gripe is that the brisket burger is literally just meat on a bun - nothing. The menu describes this, however it was still a surprise to me.

Went in there last night for a radio show contest. Sat at the bar and was greeted with a menu. After taking 1 minute to look at the menu, I sat there for 20 minutes looking at the bartender, Jade, waiting on him to take my order. During that time, several people came up to the bar for drink orders, which he promptly filled. Not once did he even look at me. It wasn't until a server came behind the bar and I asked for a beer did I get served. I should not have to bark out drink orders like I'm in some club. You really should train your employees better!

We had a party of 6 for dinner. 5 out of 6 received their food. No one ever came and asked how everything was or if we needed anything. When asked to talk with the manager we were told we’re short staff. I understand everyone is short staffed but how would you feel if you went somewhere and never received your meal and was told well we’re short staffed we hope you give us a second chance. Very poor service

We visited on September 1st and had to wait at least 10 minutes to find a waiter or waitress. We finally went to the bar to have them send someone to our table. We placed a drink order and they served us warm beer. We asked the waiter about it and he said they were having problems with the cooler keeping beer cold. He brought us glasses of ice to pour the beer into. We decided to leave after that as we didn’t know what to expect for our dinner experience. We love the Strand and were very disappointed with our visit.

We had a rehearsal dinner and the service was horrible. We had 27 people with 1 server. There were 3 hostesses doing nothing that could have helped, could have cleared dirty plates but they just stared at us all night. The Manager never checked, not even once, to see how things were going. She had to print the menu twice due to errors. She was rude and did nothing to solve any of the issues. BALL DROPPED! I would never have a party here again!!!!!!! EPIC FAIL!

I know people who visit the Sisters Lake area, and they recommended other restaurants. The Strand was close, and we still tried. The food and drinks were great. Two of us had barbeque -- one brisket and one pulled pork. I travel for work, and I thought the Brisket was on par with good places in Texas and Kansas City. The barbeque sauce was very good. They should focus on making the appetizers better; if they did this, it would really make a difference.

Waitress needed more training. If it’s taking a long time for your food why not go check into it? How about asking if we wanted more beverages ( that were empty from the waiting) in the meantime. A busser came out and asked if we had gotten our meal. Lo and behold he went to the kitchen and we got it. The manager should be walking around and noticing little kids (whose parents weren’t watching) walking on top of the fire pits. Accident ready to happen. The new waitress just stood around talking to other waitresses. I came to decompress and left angry, thirsty and mad. I love The Strand, for the atmosphere, but none of it was there that night.

We really want this place to do well. It has so much potential and I love the ambiance. I’m not sure what happened over the years, but the last few times we came here we had a poor experience. They are often under staffed. We waited 2 hours to get our appetizer one night and had to ask 4 times when it was coming. The quality of the food is pretty bad. Bland fish tacos. Perhaps adding Guac or fresh limes and cilantro would help. They were heavily breaded and fried with a flavorless slaw on top. 2?people at our table ordered the same dish, one arrived with French fries, but not the other. Weird. And the fries were cold and bland. Other than salad, there are no healthy food options. I’m pretty sure the food is not made fresh, but from frozen. I hope they up their game here because I’ve heard a lot of people complaining about the quality recently.

Absolutely fabulous! Great beer, great cocktails, and great service! Our bartender was Jade. We witnessed the longest motorcade we've ever seen go by during our stay. So fun! Loved the vibe, the indoor/outdoor feel, and the excellent service. We will be back!!
