Tanglewood Restaurant & Lounge — Restaurant in Owosso

I went with a friend for lunch today 5/31/25 and as soon as we were seated, we were met by a friendly gentlemen, who informed us that he was the new owner and Welcomed us there as he could probably tell we had never been there before because we were looking around. He told me they cook with healthier options other than grease and about a future pasta dish coming soon and it definitely sounded like something I would try! We ordered The fettuccine, I added chicken in mine and my friend added shrimp, we both thought they were delicious. I am very picky about my Alfredo sauce, so I was skeptical about ordering this, but it turned out to be really good and it was a pretty large portion and I’m excited that I have leftovers in my fridge lol he brought us a fresh roll, complimentary as it didn’t come with the meal. Although I believe it should because that was the finishing touch to our meal. Our waitress was very tentative and friendly. Prices were good and they compare to other places in the area. The dining area was clean and the staff kept busy the entire time we were there. I recommend 10/10. The only thing that I’m disappointed about is not going to this...

Horrible experience and would not recommend them! We called days ahead to make a reservation for a group of 14 (family get together) and were told they were fully booked for that day and had been for months. We were told to stop in anyways since we were staying in the attached hotel. We stopped in around 2p and they were completely empty. They were expecting a party of 30 at 3pm and wanted to turn us away. They told us if we ordered by 230p we'd be fine. We had our orders all ready at that time and placed the order. They had 1 server who barely spoke to us and was clearly irritated. Our food was served separately for the next hour n a half. Never once did we get refills or asked how the food was. Food was overcooked, tasted horrible, and small portions. We made the best of it and went about our way. That night they started karaoke and had drunk people in the bar making all sorts of noise. At midnight we finally had to call the desk and ask when they were going to stop karaoke bc we had kids trying to sleep (the restaurant is connected to the hotel and right below the rooms) so they turned the volume down. Horrible experience and...

Went at 9pm on a Monday so we weren’t expecting them to be at their best but I was pleasantly surprised. I got the fish and chips with a cup of broccoli cheddar soup and my husband got the Southern Cali club sandwich.

The waitress prefaced when she brought my soup that it was the end of the night so if my soup was gnarly, just let her know and they’d get me something else. The soup was super salty (expected, as it cooks down during the day) but really had a great flavor.

My fish was overdone somewhat and oddly chewy; I nearly always get fish and chips at every restaurant and I’ve never had cod with that sort of consistency, almost like scallops. It wasn’t bad but I’ve had better. The Tartar sauce was, truthfully, absolutely vile. I don’t know what they put it in it, or if it is store bought, maybe even past the date, but I had to actually keep the lid on it.

My husband loved his sandwich (he implicitly said it made him want to come back to try other menu items) and both of us had really great fries. Perfect amount of crunchy and soft,...
