Bay City Kitchen — Restaurant in Bay City

At first I was suspicious about all reviews being all 5 stars. Then I got inside. Ok, quaint place, looks genuine, friendly staff. Then I put my order in, ask for a coffee, get a mug (warmed up on top of the espresso machine) and get to my table. Sip the coffe, wow that’s excellent. Ok, so far so good. My order arrives. I got ling cod on black lentils, beets, and some vegetable that I can’t remember. My wife got roasted veggies and quinoa. Both plates are presented excellently, fine dining level.

Every bite I've ever eaten from Bay City Kitchen has been delicious. From salad to dessert and every bite in-between, the food is always delicious. Prices are very reasonable. Staff is very friendly.

It's a small place. You order at the counter and your food is delivered to the table. Water, napkins, and utensils are self-serve, don't expect traditional table service.

Most menu items are available frozen/refrigerated, so a last-minute dinner to go is easy. Choose your dishes, pay, and go.

Good beer & wine options plus some out-of-the-ordinary non-alcoholic beverages. Not a huge list, but all quality selections.

Sunday dinner is always a prix fixe menu that includes salad, entree, and dessert. As of 3/3/24 the Sunday dinner was $30/person.

Last night I had the herb crusted lamb with couscous and turnips. $20. I’m impressed with the variety of vegetables and perfect preparation. This is what eating out should be, an adventure in trying foods I wouldn’t know how to cook for myself. My meal was delicious. I got bites of my husband’s steak and potatoes stuffed with braised vegetables…perfection. If this restaurant was in Portland there would be a line down the block starting at noon. Also, the Sunday night dinners are popular for a good reason. I should add, the staff have been consistently friendly...
