Marek's Harbor Grill

Stopped in for a late lunch. Glad we did! Excellent drinks, food and service! Fish & Chips for me, a beautiful salad for my bride. Excellent location in the middle of Charlevoix, Mi. Thank you Wendy for the perfect service and afternoon lunch! Menu updated with current date.

We had just finished a sail and needed a place for lunch. The wait at the most popular place was 30 minutes, so we wandered the main street and came upon Marek's. There were only 8 other people in the place, but it was comfortable and the service was quick and friendly. We ordered the Fish and Chips and a Chicken and Gouda Salad. The fish and chips were very disappointing as there was only 4 little pieces of fish. The fries were good though. It was not at all worth $21.00. The salad was ample enough, but the chicken was dry and the dressing was way too sweet. The shredded gouda did add an interesting flavor profile. I can't say we would recommend eating here.

I love local businesses and am rare to dislike food but my wife and I left SO disappointed. To start we ordered the lobster chowder which was honestly pretty good. A little less flavorful than one would want but we’ve had worse. For main entrees we had Parmesan crusted walleye and Chicken Marsala which is where the disappointment started. My walleye was dry, small, and very lacking in flavor. It was as if they had just boiled the fish and added a Parmesan crust and seared it so it would stick together. My wife’s chicken Marsala was leagues better but that’s still not saying much, unfortunately. It was an uneven amount of noodles cooked in a wine reduction sauce. Thankfully due to the large portion of Marsala I didn’t leave hungry, only disappointed. The servers were great but I can’t in g

The Cajun chicken pasta was delicious and it’s a ton of food expect to take some home unless you share. My partner got the perch basket and it was light and delicious as well. Neal’s overall tasty price slightly overpriced for the quality of food. We didn’t need reservations because there was a winter storm and barely anyone out. Otherwise I’m not sure how busy it gets.

Wow! What a wonderful date night. Atmosphere was classy and extremely clean. Service was fantastic. The host Mike was very friendly and our server Sonia was very knowledgeable and attentive. Food was impeccable! Started with the Brussels. Very crispy, sweet and savory. We ordered prime rib and walleye for our entrees. Large portion sizes and cooked perfectly. Ended the evening with the house made chocolate mousse and peanut butter chocolate cheesecake. Both were so good! We will definitely be back.
