- TTerriOrlando / Central Florida East •4 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe made a reservation for Bennethum's on Open Table and mentioned that it was our anniversary. The restaurant was fully booked when we arrived but our table was ready and we were seated right away. The hostess wished us a happy anniversary, and there was a hand-written note at our table with best wishes from "the Bennethums". We enjoyed an excellent meal starting with the crispy parmesan Brussel Sprouts, followed by one of the daily entree specials, Waygu beef sirloin in mushroom aujus. It was perfection! Bennethum's offers an outstanding wine selection, too. We paired our meal with a very nice Pinot Noir. After dinner we were presented with a complimentary dessert to top off our anniversary celebration! Unfortunately, I do not remember the name of our server. She was excellent, as well. Overall, we enjoyed a wonderful evening and would highly recommend Bennethum's to anyone looking for an outstanding meal served in a relaxed, yet classy atmosphere.More infoBennethum's Northern InnPrice: Expensive• American• Gaylord•4.9

- MMarcyvipDetroit / Eastern Michigan •58 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoWe always love celebrating special occasions at The Boathouse. The patio seating is weatherproof and accommodates any weather conditions. We love a few special dishes and this year treated them as small plates to share. A perennial favorite is tempura asparagus. We also added a Burrata salad, oh yum, with added peach; and for protein we tried the new small plate lobster cakes topped by a scallop. Always delish, we’ll see you again.More infoBoathouse RestaurantPrice: Very Expensive• European• Traverse City•4.8
