We had to wait at least 30 minutes or more before the server gave us water and bread. I honestly thought she had forgotten about us. Turns out they were short staffed and she was handling too many customers at a time. My order wasn’t right (ordered chicken but got fish). This is the second time this has happened. I love Cooper’s Hawk but y’all need to get yourselves together

Dinner was terrific. Started with excellent cocktails, Caesar salad and cheese bread. There were four of us and everyone enjoyed their entrées. The best part of the evening was our server, Lynn, who was knowledgeable and professional. If you go to this restaurant ask for her!

Love the upscale pub decor. Som let us try a few wines before ordering a nice Vermentino and Barbera. Good Ceasar salad. The chicken was wonderful and large portion. The lobster Louie had tons of lobster. Veg Wellington was excellent. Nice job.

Really had a wonderful meal at a place with a really cool vibe! The trout was amazing, as was the boneless leg of lamb! The fennel salad was great! Great decor. And an interesting selection of good wines, all from Michigan! (Yes, I eas surprised that those words would even come out of my mouth - and I’m from Michigan!) This place deserves all the 5-star ratings it gets!
