Martell's - Kalamazoo

Disappointed no fish of the day.Nice joke, "They didn 't catch any "Only 3 Jumbo shrimp with pasta dish.Eggs Benedict was superb.

Driving into the establishment is a delight! As it is surrounded by a lot of scenic areas to walk around, sit outside, and watch the water!I like the seating how it overlooks the water and the bar area is cozy.We got the MUSHROOM TOAST- it was quite flavorless but the bread that came with it was yummy!The SMOKED BRISKET RAVIOLI had a wonderful sauce and it came with 6 so it was perfect for our table.The WHIPPED GOAT CHEESE was the winner of the appetizers! The entire table loved it.I got the ARUGULA salad with salmon on top and the grilled salmon filet was perfect! Flavorful and didn’t even need the side of lemon.We ordered the WEDGE salad and it was okay.The SUMMER BERRY SALAD had a great dressing and you cannot go wrong with it!The MUSHROOM SOUP was pretty similar to the mushroom toast just more soupy, but delicious!The biggest portions were CAPELLINI with about 4 shrimp on top, and the HALF ROASTED CHICKEN.Now the half chicken had fantastic flavor with a lot of vegetables under it. I will order it again sometime!For dessert, we got CANNOLI which was pretty big, and the CHOCOLATE TORTE which was gobbled up so quickly I wasn’t even able to sneak a bite!The snickerdoodle martini was an exact replica of a snickerdoodle.All in all, we had a great time. It was Mother’s Day at 5 pm so naturally the staff were pretty whooped by the time we got in. We ordered a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc and enjoyed ourselves. Parking: Great area to drop people off in the front

Beautiful location, my beef was tender and so savory. They were very accommodating of my dietary restrictions. Very good waiters.

Editing my 5 star review from a year ago to reflect my latest visit which was not a 5 star. I tip based on service. With that being said my tip would have been $20 higher if I had a refill on water. One glass without ever being refilled in the 90 minutes I was there is completely unacceptable. I guess Colton/Connor I forgot his name was too busy with serving loud prom goers. I remember going to the black swan 30 years ago and I would get 3-4 water top-offs during my visit

Nice portions of food that are high quality. Great atmosphere and service. Nice outdoor patio for nice days
