Restaurants near Park Lake Station

This was our first time dining at Minerva's, we were celebrating my brother's birthday! It was a great experience, the atmosphere was enjoyable, the food was delicious and the staff was outstanding, friendly and accommodating, we will definitely be back!

From the moment we came in contact with the hostess the night was great!!!! Diane server, Chris assistant to Diane were both professional, knowledgeable and friendly, but also were ghost like when my husband and I were talking (very important to "read" your customers). My husband had the Bone-in New York Strip with au gratin cheesy potatoes. I had the 11oz filet with garlic mash potatoes, both were absolute perfection!!! We also had the spicy shrimp for appetizer that comes with a side cucumber onion "salad" which Diane highly suggested we have a little bit of that salad with each bite of shrimp.....she was spot on with that recommendation!!!!!! This is our second visit to this location and we will surely return!!!! The oversize booths are roomy yet still maintain that "intimate" ambience for our dinner for two. Next visit we will TRY to save room for dessert.

Wow... what a transformation! I had not visited Hotel Delamar and Artisan restaurant since it was the dumpy Holiday Inn. The hotel is beautiful. Artisan really came through! The decor is sophisticated but inviting, the fireplaces roaring, our view pleasant. The food is quite good.... the service made the experience! Melissa took care of us. She was knowledgable, made some smart suggestions and paced things perfectly. The kitchen also split our apps. I especially liked the cacio pepe salad... my dining partner enjoyed the roasted squash app. We both had the filet with a bit too heavy (for me) sauce. Loved the pave' potatoes. Nick the manager checked on us regularly and kindly showed us the pool and 'igloos'.... One more great addition to the Traverse City dining scene!

Friendly atmosphere, delicious food, good cocktails

The food and service was nice. We would return again. It was loud due to a unhappy little toddler, but that wasn't the fault of the restaurant. You couldn't hear the conversation between us at our table, which was disappointing, because of the little child...
