Ludington Grill — Restaurant in Escanaba

$78 worth of solid meh. Late. Hungry. Passing through town and decided to stop based on reviews, which is why I’m leaving one. First time in my life I have ever sent back a mixed drink back because how does that get effed up? But it was. Should have taken that as a sign to not order the steak, but clearly I’m a glutton for punishment. Terrible. Strange fishy undertones that was overdone and came with raw onions vs. the mushrooms I had ordered. Ate one bite of $25 steak. Didn’t send it back. Vibe there was way off. Not sure if I was being poisoned because of the drink or if it was just that bad. Veggies literally came in a tide pool of microwave water. Everyone else’s was mediocre. Place was empty so wasn’t that. Seemed like a quality control issue or maybe just a case of the Mondays. Waitress was very pleasant and accommodating save for never filling water. Save your $, Culver’s would have been a fraction of the price and far superior. Will update if I get...

Came kind of late, but the staff was very welcoming-

Very attentive, and timely/accurate delivery.

Waitress was pleasant, and cheerful.

Drinks came quickly, and were mixed very well. Old fashioned was 'on point'.

Prickly pear was tasty!

Apps came right on time, and were cooked very well.

Mozzy chunks were great.

Bread sticks had a nice crust, and fluffy inside.

Chicken strips were nice chunks, whole meat, and cooked very well and were very tasty.

House Chips were spot on, like always.

Fries were 'okay'. You can do better!!

They are natural cut, but could be soaked longer, or cooked longer for better crisp, or even a light breading, just needed a little more...something :)

Sirloin steak special was stupendous. Bourbon glaze on top of thick applewood bacon, and onion straws. Done as ordered, and very tasty.

Great visit. Will be...
