This is a great place to eat in Munising, if not the best place. Great salad buffet and soup with the meal. This place is busy and you can see why. Good selection of beer, wine and drinks with a full size bar. Food was tasty, hot and service was top notch. We always stop in here on our way... More

Visited on Mothers Day afternoon. We were seated promptly and then sat..........We waited quite a while for our waitress, at least 10 minutes with closed menu's. When she finally came, she did express that she was sorry for the wait and said, "no one told me you were seated, those greeters need to do a better job". One in our... More

The food is quite good and the staff is friendly. The menu has a lot to offer and the prices are not bad. The interior and decor are old, but also rather charming. I would eat there again for sure. We ate in the restaurant area only, so I cannot review the bar area. Looked fine though. :)

Sydney's Shark Bay Bar & Resteraunt was a cute little joint. Although when we first arrived we stopped at a sign that said, "Please wait to be seated." So we did, and when our hostess came, she was a very rude and conceited little teenager. All she said was, "How many?" Not a "How are you?" Or "Welcome!" When we... More

We had driven all day without stopping to eat, so when we arrived at Munising we were hungry. I was a little surprised that the women at the front counter didn't bother to greet us, but rather just said "how many?" Not the friendliest service I've encountered. We sat at a table in the bar and I was immediately concerned... More

The weather was pretty crappy when we stopped by, but the hot food really hit the spot. While there was only one woman working the floor, she was busting her butt to make sure we were well taken care of.

Did a great job at hosting MI Ice Fest. Very accommodating to the ice climbing community. Good food and friendly staff too!

In Munising you have somewhat limited choices in dining, so I will frame this review with that point in mind. Having vacationed in the area 5+ times, we've come to the conclusion that Sydney's is a reliably tasty and affordable choice. We have been disappointed everywhere else, particularly by the Brownstone, Dog Patch and the Navigator. I will say to... More

My husband and I took a road trip around Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan this past summer. We had some spectacular breakfasts and we had some good breakfasts and we had one cruddy breakfast. This was it. We went for the breakfast buffet, which was probably mistake #1 after the weak coffee. If you're looking for overcooked eggs, greasy potatoes, and... More

We stayed in the Days Inn just behind the restaurant and were exhausted from a long day's travel and facing more the next day. There was a menu in our hotel room from which we ordered over the phone and it was delivered to us in a reasonable time. I had a hot beef sandwich with gravy/mashed potatoes and my... More
