Pat Kiesling WelshingerJune 10, 2016Excellent food & service, especially the pie!! The place was very clean and inviting too, with great waitstaff! We would certainly go back.
Laurie PartloAugust 1, 2014Love the fried whitefish, homemade mashed potatoes, fresh made bread and soup. Order your pie when you order dinner. They may run out of your favorite!
Tyler PiercefieldAugust 26, 2016The homemade corned beef hash was wonderful! The dish comes with gravy, so order biscuits as your side and you'll pretty much have another meal! Great to share with someone!- My favorite restaurant in Mackinaw City! Absolutely everything here is so good!! Everything is homemade. Especially love the whitefish. Make room for a piece of pie or take a piece to go.

Jessie WSeptember 26, 2016Pretty cute place - kinda like a family style diner type restaurant. Got the whitefish and the chicken tenders baskets - best fries ever but the chicken and fish are a little meh. Pretty good service.
Ryan ListerJuly 27, 2016Make sure you get some pancakes and try their homemade strawberry syrup. You won't regret it.

- Matthew SMay 21, 2012Daily baked pies, love the whitfish fingers basket and onion rings the most. Everything is like it's home cooked!
They have the best liver and onions, with bacon! And REAL mashed potatoes!
- The liver and onions with bacon is awesome! And the mashed potatoes are real!
Brian MayerAugust 11, 2011Whitefish sandwich (blackened) was delish as was the garlic burger. 4 berry pie was great custard pie was ok.
Don't leave before you try the pie. Hard to miss with any of them.
Tiffany EdwardsAugust 2, 2011Kathy is the best and sweetest waitress! Very attentive! And the food was incredible!!
Karen Bieszke ScheelAugust 5, 2011Went here on a Thursday night. Everyone loved their food from kids to grandparents.
AllycatMay 25, 2013We felt very let down after reading multiple reviews and hearing locals talk about how great this place was. The food was mediocre and our waiter- Chris- was inattentive.
Stacey HemelbergMay 14, 2011Avoid dinner on a Fri. Per the owner it's "normal" for it to take an hour & 10 min to get a chicken strip dinner and that we shouldnt be bothered that we got the wrong food since it was the same price
You have to wait for a table but it's worth it. Food is great but the waitress was not enthusiastic towards our table.
Libby Van de PutteJuly 15, 2012Best whitefish I've ever had and homemade coconut cream pie for dessert. Wonderful dinner and very good server.
