Stopped in for lunch after shopping in Macy's. Food and service was fantastic. They grind their own coffee for every pot and as a result the coffee was awesome. I had the willow chicken sandwich and it was delicious mom had "Laylas" roast beef sandwich which was also wonderfull. A fabulous meal for $20. Next trip through Saginaw we will... More

The location does nothing to promote the uniqueness of this gem! Located in the Fashion Square Mall in Saginaw, The Willo Tree offers unique, fresh and delicious meals...the table water is infused with cucumber and lemon and the meal presentation is both pleasing to the eye and delicious! More

My wife and myself had frequented this restaurant, for the food and the service is rather good, that is until the head chef decided to make himself known by starting a rather loud argument with the host, talking to our waitress we found out that this is a regular occurance and she and other members of the waitstaff begged us...

Lunch and dinner are equally pleasurable and delicious experiences. Quiet elegance and sophisticated, upscale ambiance defies what I expected in a shopping mall restaurant. Despite it's pricey menu selections, my Greek salads, goat cheese salad and seafood entrees were gourmet presentations and worth the splurge. Servers are professional and attentive. AAAAAAAA+++++++++. Highly recommend for business meetings, friend get togethers or... More

We went to lunch for my birthday. I have heard a lot of good things about this restaurant and wanted to check it out for myself. Decor - The facility is nice. It's not too fancy and for being inside a mall it was pleasant. One thing we did not like was the fact that they had paper on top... More

We dined here for the third time the other night...Don't be fooled by their mall location. This is not a 'mall' restaurant. This is a place for those that appreciate GOOD food and don't mind paying for it. The portions are more than adequate (I see everyone taking stuff home, ourselves included), the service is very good, and they offer... More

Great food prepared perfect!! Service is excellent. This was our 5th visit and because we love everything on their menu we never walk out without a bill less than $100 and that is no drinks. If you like steak and potatoes this isn't your type of restaurant-this restaurant is for people that love fine foods!! More

A group of women friends had our monthly get together meal at the Willow Tree on a Tuesday evening. It was the first visit for some of us, and others had been before. We were all very happy with our meal, in fact, most thought it was simply awesome. We all had our favorite adult beverages while getting situated and... More

FOOD --- Lots of interesting choices on the menu. Entrees seemed to be priced about right. The Salmon Olympian was 1 star --- dry, overcooked and bland. The Chicken Scaloppini Marsala was 4 stars --- very good. Both of our salads (the Tomato, and the Goat Cheese) were very good. Our dinner companions both had the steaks and without any... More

I recently moved to the Saginaw area from Detroit where there was plenty of restaurant selections. Compared to the what's in the vicinity, this place is fantastic! I've been to plenty of high end restuarants all over the country and the quality of this place is comparable for a fraction of the price. Don't get me wrong...this place isn't cheap... More
