I visit Grand Rapids once a year but had not tried Forest Lake before. I'm sorry I hadn't because I have really missed out on a good place.
Very nice atmosphere with a setting across from the lake. Typical shortage of help but the ones that were there worked hard to still make it pleasant.
All our food for dinner was very good. Be sure to request the strawberry butter for your warm bread. Delicious treat!
The steak house downstairs is currently closed because of lack of help, but the upstairs restaurant is great and many of the same things offered. Highly recommend.

We have stopped by here multiple times and have had really good service each time. We have had breakfast, lunch and dinner and have received good food each time. We really enjoy the person service from the waitresses and bartenders. They have a very comfortable atmosphere with friendly local patrons. Very reasonable prices and a very good selection on the menu. We enjoy the comfort of the seating and being able to overlook the lake while dining.
