Very good. Still good everytime I stop in. No matter how long it's been. I been going here probably since I was 8 or 10
Whether you dine in or take out the food is always excellent here. Great staff and decent prices. I’ve never gotten food that wasn’t fresh hot and delicious. This restaurant has been here for a long time and you can see why with every visit. One of my favorite breakfast places in Muskegon.
This place is extremely homey and cozy inside and out! The staff working here absolutely radiate positivity. Also, their pancakes are giant and amazing!
Excellent staff and food. Great coffee and first restaurant I've ever seen actually butter the toast completely. LOL. We definitely will be back maybe more than you want to see us LOL.
Edit: *7 Months Later* We came back to see if the Cherokee is just as good as we remember, and sure enough it is. We have noticed places around the area are increasing their prices for the blame of Covid-19, however Cherokee has NOT increased any prices whatsoever. This in my book makes it all the better. Quantity and quality is all the same as before making this place very consistent in its flavors and endeavors it has to offer. I still would pick Cherokee over the others as it is very little wait times (10:00am - 1:00pm) despite being a power hour, and are quick for food to come to order. Original Review: This is our second time back at the Cherokee Restaurant. The food is absolutely amazing from the pancakes to the Texas French toast, and everything in between. Customer service is fantastic and is always accommodating! Compared to many other breakfast places in Muskegon this in my opinion recieved the only 5 star due to its price, taste, and customer service.
Don't think our server was told she got a table when we arrived. The wait was long, but eventually we taken care of. Enjoyed the food. But then another over 15 minute wait until we were able to check out. Aside from long waits, she was very kind.
The outside is delightfully quirky, but inside you'll find reasonably priced breakfast items, great service, and good food. The coffee was okay, but our cups never ran dry. Service is efficient and friendly.
Such an excellent place to have a delightful meal. Been coming here since I was little and this place hasn't disappointed. Love the space, the smells, the memories and all.
I ordered the chief omelette and swapped out toast for a pancake. EVERYTHING was yummy and the prices are VERY reasonable for what they give you. They give you big portions. I wish I would have given this place a try sooner. Especially over that awful and scamming Getty Street Grill. Can't wait to come back.
A Hidden Gem for Breakfast and Conversation I’ve been to the Cherokee Restaurant twice in the past three months, and both experiences have been impeccable. It is a quiet, small spot in Norton Shores with a great atmosphere—perfect for actually being able to have a conversation. I met strangerhere for breakfast, and it was the ideal setting. Cause we left as friends. On top of the environment, the food is delicious, the prices are good, and the staff is wonderful. Highly recommend if you are looking for a quality meal in a relaxed setting.
