Petoskey’s Best Restaurants, Bars, and Cafes | Eater Detroit

"The Walloon Lake Inn has been a special culinary destination for decades, but a change in ownership and a remodel in 2014 made the historic inn “next level.” Now one of the most sultry dining rooms in northern Michigan, this lakeside gem might just be the hottest reservation in town…er, 10 minutes south of town. While the space screams steakhouse, it’s the John Cross whitefish that is most popular. With a panko parmesan crust, summer squash, a lemon beurre blanc, and capers it’s a lovely taste of the Fresh Coast and a storied Charlevoix-based fishery. The Walloon Lake Inn offers indoor and patio seating, both of which overlook Walloon’s stunning sunsets." - Stacey Brugeman
