Reviews
My usual pit stop in Sebawaing is McDonalds, but since their dining room was out of commission I decided to satisfy my curiosity about the Lamplighter. Sebawaing's McDonalds may have lost themselves a customer. I was there for lunch, but had a taste for an omelette and ordered the cheese and mushroom one. As the waitress was taking my order back to the kitchen I had second thoughts--I remembered that diners often use canned mushrooms, which can be rubbery and flavorless. But when I got the omelette I was pleased to see the mushrooms were grilled fresh mushrooms. The omelette had great texture with plenty of the fillings. And the waitress brought it with a bottle of hot sauce--I didn't have to ask. Service in general was friendly and fast. I chose a biscuit for the side and it was very good too, soft with a slightly crunchy exterior. Hash browns were the only off note here. They were a little mushy. I ordered mine extra crispy, and they came blackened in spots but still otherwise mushy. Still ate most of them. I've had worse. I will probably be this way in another week or two and will sample some lunch items.
Great restaurant very clean and always smells clean! Waitresses could be a little faster but hey we've all been there; little on the pricey side but well worth it, salad bar is little but it's great I love it when they have their potato salad. Their pizzas are great they sometimes get a little too topping happy. Expect to visit the bathroom three times after the visit though! After all nice and great place to take your family or even yourself. Cook is very annoying. Maybe that was rude...
Nothing better than fresh local perch. This place has amazing simple classic food. Like a Leo's downtown but half the price, you can't beat that. The wait staff is kind and friendly. Always on the ball to help you and your table out with what every you need. Not to mention that you can always judge a place on what kind of pickles they serve and this place has some prime pickles. If your driving through the area and your in the mood for a classic American meal, come here, sit down, and enjoy an amazing meal.
Had amazing service. The waitress was so sweet and nice. The food was also wonderful. Had the pot roast and the porterhouse The pot roast was fall apart tender and the steak was cookedd perfectly. The table next to us had a calzone that looked to die for. Highly recommend this place. It had a very welcoming and cute atmosphere.
