Came into the Little Brown Jug this afternoon, and let me tell you, this was an exceptional choice. I walked in, and it was calm, and I was immediately greeted by the lovely staff (these ladies were total babes). I sat down and was waited on by a very lovely young woman named Sarah. She was very attentive, friendly, and made great suggestions, as I wasn't too sure what to order. My food came out pretty quickly, was so delicious, and the portion size was incredible. Definitely worth my money.
Here’s where they truly showed how exceptional they are. While I was eating, the place quickly filled, and it was packed. There was a festival or something going on nearby, and a big reservation came in, but these lovely ladies didn’t miss a beat. Sarah and the two ladies she worked the dining room with gave a masterclass on how to handle sudden chaos. They kept their friendly demeanors and stayed on top of everything. The way they worked off each other was poetry in motion. Big round of applause for those gorgeous ladies.
The food was incredible. The portions were bountiful. The staff was second to none—the stars of the show. I will be back, and I will recommend to everyone I know to make the trip out to Maybee and visit “The Friendliest...
Read moreFor a long time, I have heard about the exceptional prime rib at the Brown Jug. Since, I was in the area, today was the day. The Brown Jug is a restaurant/Bar with a very casual atmosphere. The wait staff is friendly. I ordered the prime rib medium rare+. I respect them for not rolling their eyes. I just want a steak between medium rare and medium. Other places have belittled me for my order. I also ordered the baby back ribs. The story behind them is the crew at the restaurant has won awards for their bbq. My third order was Mac and Cheese. Each entree came with various sides. The entrees are very generous in portion size. You will not leave this place hungry. The food review - The prime rib was cooked as requested. Very tender. I thought that it would have a better char on it. The taste was decent. The ribs were fall off the bone tender. I assumed that they would be smoked. My bad for not asking. I wish they offered a choice of bbq sauces. The sauce they put on the ribs was average at best. The Homemade Mac and Cheese was good it just needed more cheese. Would I go back to this restaurant, probably not. If I was in the area visiting friends and we ended up at this restaurant, I would be...
Read moreRecently had a party here. Food tasted good, area was clean, and staff was nice. However, the complaint I have is that I paid per person for the "buffet" for the party. The buffet selection on their website says a buffet for guests to serve themselves. I was also told on the phone that the entree choices for the buffet was salad, soup, and cold sandwiches since the food would be setting out. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE AT ALL. The waitress came around and asked each guests what kind of soup and sandwich they wanted. There was NO buffet. Some guests only wanted soup and therefore, did not get full as there was no buffet for them to get more. They also ran out of the soup that I chose ahead of time, even though they were told 20 guest and only 16 attended. I am disappointed since I paid $16.99 per person for a "buffet" to feed my guests and they were not able to get full off the choices they were given. I would have rather let everyone choose something they wanted off the menu had I known they would be limited to one bowl of soup. This is frustrating since I paid good money, half of my guests drove from mid Michigan, and I didn't get the service I chose...
