We were greeted with a very warm welcome. The restaurant and bar have a very open feel. Lots of natural light and great view of the water. The server was very friendly and easy going. The food was absolutely delicious. A fantastic dining experience!
Stillwater has consistently been ranked as the best or one of the best restaurants in Brighton. Great food at a good price, ample parking off Grand River but a beautiful view of the Mill Pond and the walkway around it. Try the Lobster Bisque, the free bread and the ribs. But it’s all good.
March 6th, 2023 Great Lakes Wine Dinner. The chef’s, Austin and Zach were excellent! The food was amazing! Can’t wait until the next wine dinner.
If you want a true professional dinning experience this is your place. There aren't many restaurants left where you can get a true culinary experience. The service is impeccable from the minute you walk in the door. I'm eating my way through the menu and haven't found a single thing I wouldn't order again. Thank You.
Great stop on our visit home to Michigan. Excellent restaurant in Brighton overlooking the walking trail with a really well thought out menu. Started off with the bread basket and the Crispy Fried Brussel Sprouts for the table. I suggest you try these if you like Brussels. They were absolutely delicious! They were tossed with shaved Parmesan , pecans, and maple-balsamic glaze. For the main entree I split the Salmon Fillet stuffed with roasted pepper, crab, and spinach. It was served with lemon-caper beurre blanc, rice pilaf, and green beans. I would order this over and over again. It was outstanding. We had a table of six and everyone was so pleased with their meal choices. Our service was fantastic, time to receive our meals from when we placed the order (even on a busy Saturday night) was minimal, and the atmosphere was perfect. Looking forward to our next visit back! The horse at the bar is awesome!! Mosey over to see it. Great photo opportunity . Restaurant was a bit dark in the evening for dinner so it was helpful looking at the menu in advance. Every team member was kind and served with a smile.
Met family here for lunch. I had the Pacific Rim salmon salad and it was excellent. Also ordered the Brussels Sprouts appetizer to share. We all loved the sprouts and all enjoyed our meals. The salad was delicious and filling and the rolls were fabulous!
Still Water is a restaurant that consistently has quality food and friendly service. It really is a gem. Every time we have dinned here our meal has been superb. We always order a variety of food and all meals are exceptional. I know it is a steakhouse, but the salmon is as good as any seafood restaurant I have eaten at. The staff is obviously well-trained and service is a priority. When in the Brighton area Still Water is a 'MUST'. I highly recommend.
Had the sweet and spicy Calamari- it was excellent and very well thought out by the chef. The Fish Tacos were average. Would have been better with some citrus. Service was outstanding!
