Hands down the best olive burger ANYWHERE! And the cherry bread pudding was outstanding and could have fed 4 people! Waitress was great and the sassy owner, Nancy, was a hoot . Will go back every time we go to Traverse City. We might even make a special trip just to go there to eat (& we live 2 hours away!) More...

Nice little local haunt, atmosphere makes you feel like you’re at you’re local favorite bar and not far from home. The olive burger is everything it’s praised to be (like the menu and owner says: you don’t need to doctor it) and I would get it again in a heart beat. Friendly staff and decent prices for good food and drinks. More...

I was happy to find a small-town bar! This is a place to unhook from technology (small TVs that weren’t on when we were there). Was not busy at all on Black Friday at dinner time. Staff were super friendly! I had the eggplant appetizer and side Caesar salad. I love eggplant, so I loved this dish. My fiancé got the famous olive burger and they are adamant about not adding anything; he was not disappointed! We come to Traverse City often and will likely be back. More...

The Lacuesta family LOVES Lil' Bo! The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and quirky and reminds me of some of my favorite places back home in TN. The food...oh, the food! Our favorites are the olive burger and the stroganoff, but we aim to work our way through the menu. The service is attentive and welcoming--Nancy knows our drink order without asking and even expedites our toddler's spaghetti order--AND cuts it up for her! This place is a delight, and we plan to share it with our friends and family. TCB! More...

The best of everything! From the Famous Olive Burger, MI Lake Perch Dinner, Stroganoff, Lasagna, to Nancy's Outrageous Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Butter Frosting. The staff and owner are super nice, friendly and professional. I've put this place at the top of my list of Best in Town! More...

We always try to make a stop to this gem every time we come to TC. Nancy is always a riot and love chatting with her. My husband had the perch with her homemade tartar sauce and slaw. Amazing!!! I had the TC salad and it didn’t disappoint. We had carrot cake to go. Love love love!!! We look forward to the next time we are up! More...

Great service. Lots of Elvis. Very good burger and fries just be sure to order them crispy. Not good though for watching sports. Two TVs very small weren't on when all day there were some really good college football matchups. Nice menu offering, besides burger and fries, like beef stroganoff and goulash which we can't wait to go back and try! More...

Can’t get better homemade food around town than this. The stroganoff was delicious carrot cake spectacular great family environment. But home cooking is the key here. Couldn’t have been more welcoming. They aim to please. More...

Good food and very good service. Unless you require a chain experience or lots of plastic, Little Bohemia is a food and drink establishment of choice in Traverse City.

The food was good. We followed the owner recommendations, as she attended our table. Overall it was a good experience. We were just surprised as, while leaving the place, the owner came out and complained about the tip. (Not enough...we did not get our math right...so use your calculator!). Anyway, it's one of the oldest restaurants in the area and a visit may be warranted. More...

Great food - great service - fantastic history of the restaurant. The Lasagne and the goulash were very good. Desert was the cherry bread pudding with ice cream - yum, yum! If we are fortunate enough to return to this area will definitely return. More...

Impeccably perfect combination of fabulous meat and sensational olives with a toasty bun that saturates the melted cheese and scrumptious juices leaving you satisfied and fantasizing about meeting Elvis here on the down low, cuz ya know. ... If he was still alive, he'd be coming here for certain. The gnocchi was like an upper class poutine that left an urge to throw onto some sort of Burger but temptation didn't get the best of me. Splendid atmosphere where every other table in the joint was mesmerized by their own private experiences..... Very vocally I might add ☺️ . Come on in and slap a dollar on the ceiling. It's worth it!

A small tavern with deep roots, this quaint bar offers a few choice entrees to go along with the drink selection. For a place with the name "Little Bohemia", you wouldn't expect outstanding lasagna and a great Olive burger. They definitely surpassed those expectations. More...

Great food, we got there late and they kept the doors open for us. Most places would slap something on the grill, and get you out. They served us a great perfectly cooked burger and did not rush us out the door. More...

This is the first time I ever got a tip from a waitress!I'm from Las Vegas, and they were playing Elvis on the music. The waitress gave me an "I love Elvis" bumper sticker. The food was excellent the service was good. We had Beef Stoganoff, the eggplant appetizer and the perch dinner. Not health food; not low-fat, but still authentic and well-made food.the atmosphere is casual and very laid back. If you are a stuffy person with a stick up your butt, don't come here: you won't enjoy it.The restaurant has a very long history in the area. I will definitely return. More...

I had beef stroganoff. It was really yummy and obviously homemade. The carrot cake for dessert was to die for..best in my whole life! For all the people giving negative reviews about the service...I had great service. If you are a fussy, prissy person you should not come here, or get a life. You get back what you send out...if you like your *ss to be kissed when you go out to dinner...you are more likely to get it kicked in this joint. If you are a normal, gracious person...you will be treated just fine! ❤️ More...
