We always love the Hearthstone. In the past, everything has been stellar. Today, the service was excellent and the ambiance was better than the past. The manicotti was good, the French onion soup was as good as always, however, the New York strip came out cold but flavorful. The strip was half grizzle and fat. When we waited until the end to show them the fat/grizzle, (mom was tired and we weren’t waiting for different food) they took 5.95 off a $39 steak. I’m guessing we will choose a different restaurant next time.

The white turkey chili was delicious. And the Lake Michigan Whitefish was also very good. We'll be back!

First time for both my fiance and I. Our server was excellent and fun! Free anniversary dessert and free photography! She willingly took our picture for our anniversary. Then when leaving we decided to get our picture taken by their beautiful Christmas tree outside. A worker who was standing by the hostess stand came out and took our picture! Then after telling her thank you and what great food and service we had she then hands us a card to come back! Amazing customer service. We will be back!

Waited in the entrance for a few minutes before just walking up to the server station because no one came to seat us. Everything else went smoothly with the staff. Small portions for the price. My shrimp was overcooked. Otherwise, the atmosphere was great, and the food was flavorful.

The flavor of the escargot was great. Needed more butter and rather than those pastries, some bread to absorb the butter. French Onion soup was really good. Enjoyed the croutons that stayed somewhat crispy even in the broth. Fries were great with the Steak Frites. Steak was decent, but a little bland. Cooked nicely. Server was helpful. Probably the highest end restaurant in the Muskegon area. Great for a special occasion.

You’ll be glad you decided to dine at Hearthstone before your first bite of food: The lovely landscaping, trellised outdoor seating, and graceful ironwork entry all point to a dining experience that will not disappoint. As advertised, this culinary gem in Muskegon, Michigan, is a bistro, bar, and grill. The menu offers favorites from American, French, and Italian cuisines. The wait staff was friendly and helpful as we pondered drinks, apps, and entrees; many offer wine pairings. The fare my four-person group ordered was beautifully cooked and plated. Of course, we shared apps: escargot, prepared in garlic and parsley butter; Maryland crab cakes,served with a dynamic poppy seed kale and cabbage slaw; and beef carpaccio, a spectacular dish of raw tenderloin, sliced thin and served with red onion, capers, and field greens. Our entrees included: pastrami on swirled rye; Butcher’s steak burger, a patty featuring oyster mushrooms gruyere and truffle mayo; almond brioche perch; and steak frites (I subbed the creamed spinach for fried root vegetables—a fantastic side). Lemon cake (a multi-layer pastry of lemon curd and cream cheese frosting) and black coffee were the endpoints of a unique food excursion. The only faux pas was a fried green tomato soup with bacon, which was too salty. One might argue the prices are a bit high for the communities served but Hearthstone is a fine-dining establishment that offers wonderful food and atmosphere—inside and outside. Bottom line: food is like art—personal and worth what you’re willing to pay.

Filet mignon with Brie is very good. The spinach cream with rice comes with it is an interesting combination. Medium is more of a medium rare. Veal is average. They all say the breaded fish is good. The drink I had is pink something and I did not like it.

A very pleasant evening for a birthday dinner! The food was well cooked and warm. The cheddar soup is so great as usual. They had a blueberry ale mocktail that was fantastic! Our server was the sweetest and very attentive. The bathroom was clean and the hand washing experience was fantastic. The water was warm and actually stayed warm and the soap smelt so good!
Will continue to return for special occasions.

Amazing food and terrific service!!! We always try to go there once a month for the chief specials!!
We also used them for our wedding catering in August and they rocked it!! We did the dinner buffet and also had them do our cake as deserts! People are still talking about how amazing the food and desert was! So easy to work and communicate with. I’d highly recommend them for any catering!!
