Such a kitschy place! Great food, super delicious pancakes and French toast.
Whats with a white owned Cherokee diner with a totem pole,Seems a little politically incorrectBut maybe Im just a snow flakeI will say service was good.And I enjoyed the French toast.My company was a babe too.We laughed alot
We had a large family group of 22 for lunch. Very good server. A little slow on the food.
Found a place i had never been, wasnt acknowledged as we waited to be seated then the more people entered which i will assume are regulars were directed right on pass and pointed to seats as we still sat and watched patiently!! I cant attest for the food cause my party of 4 was spoken to as we entered our car with the question Are there 4 waiting? No mam 4 leaving, now im really not sure how that process works today.. Fyi could have just been me!! Probably not!!🤷🏾
Wow! The food was absolutely delicious! I ordered the strawberry banana pancakes and holy smokes was it tasty and the portion size was so much that I could not finish them. We also had the m&m pancakes and boy were they a kid pleaser. The burger was huge too and so flavorful! We will definitely be going back there. The prices were amazing too!
We went there because it was rated 5 stars...unfortunately for us....most of the things we tried to order...they were out of. What we finally recieved was just okay....vegetables could have spent more time in the steamer meat was a bit dry..and the canned gravy that was poured on top...wasnt the best i have ever tasted by any means...and the garlic butter toast was just to bitter ...Would I ever eat there again....highly doubtful..
Weve ordered take out for breakfast a few times and every time we did our food was very good. Whenever we have extra money to get breakfast we go here. Thank you for having great food.
Today was my first time eating here, but Ill be back for more. It reminded me of the delicious omlettes that I make at home. Friendly staff, good selection, and a clean place.
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.
Service was great,food...mediocre at best.Went to pay and cashier was so busy visiting let 2 cut in front of me must have been regulars,will not be back!used to be good,not so much on my visit☹
This is a great place that has great service. I enjoy the food and it is amazing. Recommend this place when you are around.
My favorite old time breakfast place. Eggs are the best of any restaurant around. Sausage links are superior to most. This is the place I used to go with my grandmother. You will see a lot of old timers along with teens-90’s. Its wonderful that they haven’t yuppified. They keep old school.Just love them. Food was very good.
BEEN EATING HERE FOR YEARS always satisfying and great service
This place does everything perfect I love it both breakfast and dinner whatever you want they have good food good service and reasonable rates
Super cute place!! Great food and amazing staff. 10/10 would come back
Very good service and a very good meal. I recommend this restaurant to everyone.
Good food. A throwback from the 50s. Indian decor with wood paneling. A restaurant from the Cars movie. I was expecting Native American food but they offer stuff like Swedish Pancakes.
Service with a smile.Tasty breakfast.Value pricing.What more can you ask for!!!Tom
Great food at a good price. Ive been here several times and have never had a bad experience or bad service.
Excellent food and service. Prompt and delicious.
This was very satisfying. It was difficult costing what to order cause there are so many good options on the menu, but I was very happy with what I ordered and so were the other people who were with me. I really liked the French toast. I recommend gravy on the fried potatoes. My friends recommend the homemade chili and said it was good and meaty, just the right blend of ingredients. I can see why theyre so popular.
Great food, prices and service
Breakfast, coffee and service is wonderful.
Still great breakfasts to be had here! Good BIG PANCAKES!!🥞
Our meal was horrible idk how you can mess up a blt but they did i never thought Id turn down bacon and say no I just dont want it. The homemade pastie lol from what I understand horrible it didnt look appetizing.
What a great change from the current trends. An American classic feel. Great food and great service at very reasonable prices. Also very clean and observing all the current requirements. Cant go wrong if youre looking for a classic throwback.
Very good breakfast at reasonable prices.
Dont say no to this place youll be sorry
Over medium eggs cooked to brown on both sides. Two visits in a row. Great service, food good, but need to calm the flame.
Good food fast service
Great food. Fast service. Very efficient.
Breakfast was very good and our server was extremely friendly. Prices very reasonable as well.
Very friendly staff, seated us right away. Large portions of delicious food and outstanding service! Great place to take the family ♥️
Fast service, nice atmosphere, great food and super prices :)
Wait staff was very nice the biscuits and gravy was ice cold settle back 2nd time the biscuits were still cold in gravy is not so good
The Bomber with egg over easy makes for a messy sandwich of deliciousness 🤘
Great food and the best service in town
Good food and friendly staff.

Very nice people!
The food is good and the prices and portions are great.
Awesome breakfast and service
Good breakfast this morning. The Texas French toast was good, they fry it which was surprising, but in a good way. The prices werent bad $30.38 for 3, thats with or coffee. Will be back, friendly service and pretty fast.
Wonderful breakfast and coffee time!
Had the sausage gravey omelet, it was hands down, the best omelet Ive ever had. Service was also impeccable. I will be going back frequently.
Unfortunately, service was painfully slow. When the food did arrive, it was very greasy. Lots of misses with service... asked multiple times for coffee and water refill. My mother ordered hot tea and was given the hot water and tea bag, but no cup. I asked for one, waited about 10 minutes, and then just went and got one off another table.
Service was great, food was ok.
Its good for what pay the food is good and the place comes across as clean
Love this place
Great food and service!
One part of Muskegon History that wont be killed ! Friendly service, great food, safe social distancing practices and sanitation procedures! So very happy they are reopened now after the fire in April!!
Great breakfast n service.
Normally they have good food but today my food was ice cold
Was seated for 10 minutes, no water, coffee, menu. Watched white ppl come in after me, seated rt next to me, served before me. I left and will never go back.
Decent food and service. Not crowded mid Sunday morning.
One of my favorite places to eat, hands down
Love the food. Usually we get a good waitress. Unfortunately last time I went we didnt get a very good one. Barely came to our table and wasnt friendly at all.
The food was very good and the staff were very friendly and professional and the prices were reasonable.
Great food with excellent service!
I was there in late August . Omg the food was great hot out of this world delightful. I got a stuffed hash brown an side of hash an toast. That were really busy so it took a while. But that kept the smiles 😊 and coffee coming so all was good. The waitress was amazing. The amount of food was huge. I took a box home. Thanks 😊 so much for making my day.
Nice breakfast place.
Good food, great service.
Wait staff was nice.
Great food, Friendly staff. Love it every time.
Short wait and fast and friendly service. Food was delicious, too.
Delicious as always, waitress was awesome
We came here on a very busy Sunday morning. Service was really fast especially considering the amount of customers being served. The breakfast was some of the best I’ve ever had.
Good food, great service.
Great place to eat. Great food and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend. I order the steak and eggs breakfast. It was fantastic. Steak was very flavorful and cooked the way I ordered it. My hats off to the chef.
The decor hasnt really changed since it was open, but for the price and quality of the food its very good. This is a if it aint broke, dont fix it kind of restaurant.
Good food
Cherokee breakfast menu options offer something for just about everyone. Im a little more health conscious now, so Id prefer to butter my own toast and see fresh mushrooms on my omelette, along with small amounts of cheese. But if you are a hearty eater, this restaurant will not disappoint with generous serving sizes.
Stuffed French toast some of the best Ive had anywhere. Additionally wonderful waitress.
We eat breakfast here often. The food is just like what we would cook at home. Very delicious and portions are generous. Prices are reasonable too!
My first job was here. So many memories. The Cherokee is just as awesome as it has always been!Response to Owner: I worked there when I was 15 (approx 1992 for 6 months), I bussed tables and washed dishes. Ted and Joanne Bowman owned it then. It was awesome.
Best. pancakes. Ever. Yes, even (gasp) better than Mr. Bs across town. This restaurant is an oldie but a goldie.
Pancakes are awesome
Our server was very sweet and did a great job, but the food just wasnt that good.
Pancakes where not done completely and the sausage and gravy had no sausage, they should change it pepper and gravy. Two stars for nice waitstaff.
Love going to this place with my boyfriend. He says it hasnt changed in all the many many years he has been going. They all know him by name. The employees are really friendly and food is quick and yummy!I love the family owned atmosphere.
Not very fancy. Dont judge a book by its cover applies here. Its not pretty outside or inside but clean. Great breakfast, reasonable prices and great service. Best thick deep fried French toast I have ever had!
Great food at a great price. The staff and especially the Manager makes this an amazing restaurant. Stop in!
If you want a good breakfast, follow the folks of advanced age. Hint: theyre all going here.Straight-up traditional breakfast with solid execution. You wont find a lot of feta or cilantro going on. Toast. Eggs. Bacon. Potatoes. On a plate. Boom.Thats by no means a dig. There is something great about a well-executed basic breakfast, and thats exactly what youll find here.
Better breakfast sandwich than the chain restaurants. Good jib!
Good was great. Large portions and priced well. Highly recommend this restaurant.
I loved the Cherokee restuarant. They have a solid and reasonably priced breakfast menu. The over medium eggs were cooked perfectly and our server was extremely friendly and attentive.
Wonderful place. I have been there a lot and I love it. Great food for great prices. I just miss their dinners
Wait staff is always friendly. Its a good place if your looking for a family type breakfast diner. Breakfast is reasonably priced.
Great food great service. Highly recommend stopping here to eat.
Cute chicks
This place needs a serious upgrade or serious deep cleaning. Many of the booths were dirty. Too grossed out from the uncleaniness to eat there.
