I was looking for a new BBQ place. I ordered a carryout of the ribs and burnt ends. Not disappointed. The ribs fell off the bone and the tips were very tasty. Nice portions for the price. Looking forward to going back to try out the drinks.
Just had such a nice experience here. The staff was so nice, drinks were great, and the food from smoked lotus was delicious. Standouts were the gin skiff, the old fashioned and for food the potatoes and the ribs, but everything was good!
Was a nice vibe I liked this place had alot of fun here
Walking in the door here I immediately felt like I had been transported back to when I had just gotten off a cruise ship in Key West! From the huge ocean screen, to the individual tiki huts set up indoors with couch loungers and island decor, this place is truly an island its own in the midst of a michigan winter! I legit felt like I was on vacation for the short time I was here. They have free play old school arcade games including Galaga, Ms. Pac-Man, Skee Ball, pinball and even a pool table. It’s mostly just a bar, but I actually came here for the bbq, which was under a different business name on google, so the only hiccup really was trying to find Blue Nile bbq which is actually inside the bar. The smoked bbq was my second favorite in Michigan, which is amazing btw because I’m super picky about my bbq. They had fall off the bone ribs and tasty brisket. The staff were all super chill and super friendly. We felt right at home and very welcome here. The weird part is, the name of the place does not match the vibe here. I have a feeling a change in name and some lights outdoors to highlight the Caribbean vibe with outdoor decor would bring a heavy crowd here. For now, however, this is another diamond in the rough!
Great atmosphere and staff!
