First time to this restaurant and we enjoyed the unique options. We arrived a little before 3:00pm and as they offer both a lunch and dinner menu, we were given a choice. Food and Service were both great.
We had sandwiches and they were sooo good! We had such a nice gentleman, Kaden, and had a lovely chat! Hope to see you next time !
My family and I have been to the raven social several times and always leave impressed! They are constantly bringing new things to their menu, and so far, they have been great change ups! Highly recommend giving their specials a try when they have them, but their normal menu items are delicious as well. If you are a mushroom fan definitely give their mushroom soup, mushroom ravioli, and jagerschnitzle(has mushrooms) a try! So delicious! Their staff is always very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. Warm and inviting, yet edgy atmosphere. Perfect for a quiet evening for two, but also definitely roomy for a whole party.

We went to Cadillac for a concert and had planned to eat at another restaurant but found the wait too long. I asked their hostess what she would recommend and she suggested Raven Social. I've never been happier for my plans to be sidelined! I cannot wait to go back to Raven Social! The menu had so many delicious and creative options, that you don't see in most restaurants, it was hard to choose. I asked for a change in my drink and food order from what was offered on the menu and our waitress was very accommodating. I ordered the martini from the drink menu but changed the vodka to gin and asked for no mint. The drink was so delicious I had to have two and I honestly think the gin version should be added to their menu. For dinner, I opted for the mushroom ravioli, minus the truffle oil drizzle. It was the best dish I've had in a very long time! I am already dreaming about going back. We had seven people in our party and our waitress was willing to split the bill several ways without complaint, which is rare these days. She was spot on with her service and a lot fun, joining in on our jokes and conversation. We felt like she was a part of our group. Everyone in our group was extreme happy with their dinner and the service!
We were just passing through town looking for lunch. First impressions, not busy at all compared to the place across the street, Clam Lake Beer, who was a 40 minute wait for 2 on a Friday lunch. At the time of our seating, 4 small tables filled with 1 large family, then us. We were seated immediately. They have a large bar in the back. Looks nice, totally empty. We ordered waters and a soda (not time for the fun stuff yet)... that’s later tonight when we arrive in Elk Rapids. I LOVE THE ICE IN MY DRINK! those nice little nuggets of ice. We ordered our food pretty soon after we were sat down. On my way to find the bathroom our host directed me back to the restrooms. 2 doors, both labeled “Whatever” in place of the traditional gender markings Male or Female. Meh Food came out quick. It was very good!
Good variety of dishes. I had the mushroom ravioli and my husband had the special. Both tasted great. We took a look at the banquet hall upstairs while there and it is decorated beautifully. Restaurant was decorated nicely too.
Mushroom ravioli is 5 stars. I read so many positive reviews about their ravioli and they are not wrong. It is very basic. Just cream sauce with mushrooms ravioli yet so good. If the hush puppies are bigger size , they would be better. I prefer larger hush puppies because you get a bigger contrast between the crunchy shell and soft cornbread. I would rate it 3/5 I think I walk in late and therfore felt like I got ignore. Maybe I get better service next time during normal dining hours. The restaurant is huge. You can probably host event in there. Looks like a refurbished barn. Very unique design indeed.
One of my all-time favorite restaurants! Amazing Food Atmosphere and Service! Getting lunch or Dinner, family favorites, or trying one of the new daily specials. Every time we are so delighted! Live Music was an added bonus and seen a Triva night as well!
