Golden Grill - Berkley

I had a craving for crab cakes the other day and decided to try the Crabby Benny breakfast special on a Sunday. The restaurant was quite busy, but the staff handled it well, stayed on top of things, and remained friendly. Despite its average appearance, the food at this diner is surprisingly fresh, flavorful, and creative. They have a few outdoor patio tables with shade, although they face the parking lot, so the view isn't great. However, it's a nice option if you want to enjoy the weather and have a quieter meal. Overall, you can't go wrong dining here.

I primarily visited this restaurant because of the experienced servers and original owner. The food was decent enough to keep me coming back, but eventually became bland. I was not a fan of the bacon bits in their skillets, as I prefer real meat. The service was generally good, with a few exceptions. I would suggest replacing the chipped and falling apart plates as they are not up to health code standards. Unfortunately, the owners would not accommodate my gluten intolerance by providing a replacement for toast, simply suggesting I go without. Overall, while the restaurant has its drawbacks, it still has potential for improvement.

First time in Michigan at our daughter's new home in the area. This restaurant was discovered by her in-laws. Pleasantly surprised at the bright, clean environment. Selection was expansive for a small diner and quality of food was very good. Waitstaff very friendly and quick with coffee refills! Highly recommend this diner!Vegetarian options: Plenty of options for a vegetarian

Such a hidden gem! My food was incredible and the service was amazing! The new owners even did a walk through the dining area and were so friendly! All around wonderful experience! We got a chance to talk to the chef and learned that the biscuits are made fresh each morning and that real time is put into the gravy, no quick mix here! The time and care put into the food isn’t just reserved for the biscuits and gravy, I have yet to have a meal there I didn’t love!

This is such a cute little place to have breakfast or lunch! The food was awesome, and all of the waitstaff were so nice. Truly a family atmosphere with the new owners. Definitely will be going back!Food: 5/5
