"Located just a stone’s throw from the far eastern end of Lake Charlevoix, Cafe Santé is a locals’ favorite. Inspired by the classic French brasserie, this Boyne City spot is open all day. The brunch menu includes a croque-madame and a quiche Lorraine, and a duck French onion soup and whitefish á la meuniére can be found at dinner. Dine inside for a real bistro feel, or outdoors on the patio to see the kids running off their ice cream in Sunset Park next to the lake." - Stacey Brugeman

Michael, Amber and all the folks at “Santé” were so kind and considerate. 🥰 Yes, the food is made from scratch, and seasoned perfectly. 🥘 Yes, the location at sunset park 🌅 is perfect. Yes, there is free parking. Yes, that have a conscientious staff and a beautiful candle-lit, 🕯️dining room and full bar. 🍸If only they had wood fired pizza 🍕, fresh seafood, 🦞 , divine desserts 🍮 and supported local farms 🌾and charities-🫶 oh wait. They do. 👏👏👏 We’re here for 5 days and we’ve eaten here twice already. As Michael would say; “You’re Welcome…” 🙏

Had a wonderful meal this afternoon in the outdoor seating area. Our server Zoe was wonderful and very inviting! I would hire her at my own restaurant if I had one. We ordered the zucchini involtini (lunch) and the sausage plate (breakfast) they were both packed with flavor. Definitely returning if we come back to the area again!

Had the Quiche Lorraine and the Sausage Plate, both were delicious. The Quiche Lorraine's eggs were creamy and the crust was light and flaky. The two types of sausage on the Sausage Plate were flavorful, the eggs were requested over easy and were perfect, the potatoes were soft inside and a nice light crunch on the outside, and the bread was also soft on the inside and a nice crunch on the outside. The staff were very knowledgeable and polite. The atmosphere is great - French feel and beautiful views of the lake. I hope to get back for dinner before we head home.

We still love Sante! We have been going here since they opened. I had the morel feature, there was a small issue with my soup, but they took care of it promptly and appropriately. Their breakfast is excellent, and their dinner features are great as well.

Delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere. Our server was Madeline and she was helpful and friendly. I recommend this restaurant if you're in the area.

The most wonderful interior and ambiance, so beautiful and classy. Would be a great spot for a date night. It is fancy but well priced, has a beautiful water view, delicious food, and even live music. My Vienna pancakes were wonderful. Our waiter Zoe was very nice and did a great job. 10/10 place, definitely check out.

Upscale French Dining in Boyne City Michigan. Great food and great atmosphere. The team that works here is outstanding. They have a great brunch as well. Not an inexpensive burger joint but a quality meal. They also have music regularly and nice outdoor seating. There can be a wait in the summer. They don't take reservations but will take your name at the door.

A VERY enjoyable and comfortable restaurant with excellent food, great service, fair prices, and a beautiful location. I don’t know what more you could reasonably ask for. I would absolutely recommend the Cafe Santé to the locals, tourists, and anyone else wandering by. A great experience, and a wonderful way to start your day! Breakfast or brunch at the Cafe and a nice walk afterwards. I want to go back and do dinner as well and end the day with another scenic walk.
