The Local Northville Reviews
Fantastic dinner !! Madalyn was so friendly & welcoming … honestly all the staff were very friendly! Had a couple of drinks at the bar .. then promptly seated for our reservation! Great specials! The scallops & bacon appetizer was delicious!! The salmon , Mahi-Mahi & lobster roll were all delicious!! Highly recommend!!
Good local spot for a bite to eat! We had the veggie pizza and hot wings. The wings had a great kick to them and the pizza was delicious.
ended up eating here 3 times on a week and a half long vacation! it was great everytime. would definitely recommend it.
I enjoyed dinner at The Local last evening. The food was exceptional. I had Fish Tacos. The fish was fresh and they were topped with a delicious creamy Cole Slaw with fresh Pico de Gallo which also was very fresh and perfectly seasoned. My dining companion had Crispy Shrimp over Pimento Mac and cheese. She raved about the flavor and requested a box as the serving was very generous This restaurant is a very welcome addition to Northville, in my opinion. I will be returning soon.
A very nice restaurant located in Northville. It’s aesthetic and atmosphere fits very well with its location, the Adirondack mountains and the Sacandaga Lake. Since it reopened this year, my family went here twice and both times were both equally amazing. On our first visit I had the lobster brioche and the second visit I had the chicken Parmesan. Both were very good choices! Highly recommend this place if your visiting Northville.
For a tiny town this is an awesome Restaurant. Food is delicious service is great!

Great owners, fantastic staff and best food by far in the area!
I have dined here a few times. I find the food to be consistently excellent. The staff and owners are extremely friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is comfortable and clean. My favorites so far have been the French onion soup, fish tacos, and giant cream puff dessert. Everything that I have had appears to be made in-house which I really like. I also like the quality of the well-stocked bar and the fact that they have Kendall Jackson wine. Will definitely be back!
Great food, great staff. Chef Rob delivers. We will be back.
Late lunch early dinner. I had Calamari with banana peppers drizzled with a balsamic sauce. Sushi type tuna with salad. Spouse has oinion petals and shrimp basket. Highly recommend trying the Wasabi dressing with the onion petals.
This place is a total gem! Food was delicious; we ordered the steak masala, lobster roll and the chips and fish. All meals were scrumptious, but the best part was the service. From the hostess to our wonderful server Madalyn. Highly recommend this fantastic restaurant!
Love everything. I got a pumpkin martini as a recommendation and it was great. Dinner was there dilly salmon with mashed potatoes and green beans just perfect. Jordan was great. She was very attentive and nice. It was her first night and you could barely tell. She checked how I was and if I needed any thing several times. I loved my night.

Server was very nice. Was only her 3rd day and she was great. My husband loved his chicken parm. I got the chicken with maple bourbon glaze and a starter salad. Salad was gross and chicken was eh. Pretty bland. Atmosphere was nice

Nice place. Food wasn’t anything to write home about, except the fries were good. Great service. We were hungry and we didnt leave hungry so it served us well.

Cute, friendly place. Our meals weren’t great. Penne a La vodka was a huge portion of pasta (enough for like 3 people) with what tasted like jarred sauce, and long strips of bland chicken breast. Husband had chicken teriyaki featuring the same exact bland chicken strips. Rolls tasted like they were straight from a grocery store plastic bag. This place feels like it’s trying hard to present an upscale vibe, but the food is subpar. They should cut the menu way back and just focus on doing fewer things but with higher quality.

This is my first time ever giving a bad review. My family and bought property just outside the area. I gave this place 3 chances 1st time a friend and I went just to grab something we were working all day we didn’t have a reservation but we’re seated within a minute of walking in then we sat at the table for about 25 minutes nobody even said hi or would you like a drink. We left ended up with Stewart’s pizza. 2nd time. My wife 2 sons and I we had decent service but food was not to brag about. But took longer than expected 3 rd time. Late Sunday only options in town the local. Or pizza it was half empty I figured I would give it a shot, sat at the bar ordered ice tea I don’t drink alcohol so can’t review that. Ordered a special got salad and bread after 1 and 10 minutes yes I checked my phone I said to the bartender I would like to pay for my salad she walked away for a couple minutes so I left a 20 on the bar.
Nice atmosphere and good service. Ordered French Onion Soup and it was pretty good. 2nd plate, grilled chicken on panini bread and it was inedible. Chicken was so rubbery I couldn’t cut it with a knife—it had the consistency of a road tire, grease and some sort of slimy substance. Never chanced it to take a bite, laid some cash on the bar and walked out.

Was in yesterday for drinks and food with my wife and in laws the food was good the service on the other hand was not good I will say they were recovering from the parade that just happened before we got there but it shouldn’t take that long to get a table for one and shouldn’t have to sit at the bar and wait over an hour to order more drinks the staff was awful I would recommend getting food to good if your not in the mood to wait
