Super food and outstanding service. We plan come back frequently to try all their food.

Heard rave reviews so we had a group of 7 get together. Kinda cramped for larger parties. The food was good but nothing extraordinary. I didn’t care for the cold spinach dip but the taste was good, just would go better warm. Might stop back again if I was in the area. Fries were meh.Parking: Was hard to find the parking lot. Sidewalk was not salted for winter ice conditions and we had a man in his late 80’s struggle from the parking lot up the block to the restaurant.

Firstly, I am a picky eater. Mason was the waiter tonight and this was my first time eating here. Mason went above and beyond what anyone would expect. Came to our table at a timely manner. He probed the specials for the night and one stuck out to me - Norwegian caught Salmon. I didn’t have that though. My friend and I had plenty other good food! For two meals, two appetizers (spin dip and 12 wings) and a dessert, it came out to a total of $56. I wanted the full experience and I got it! The cod I got was good, but the smell wasn’t cutting it with me. Still, overall my honest review would grade it 9.6/10.Edit to add: the wings are legit the best around. I don’t typically eat wings either if that tells anyone anything ?Simply amazing. Thank you!Kid-friendliness: Very vibrant in there. Felt like I was at home with family!

We have lived in the area for a year, this was the first time we have visited. I have been very sick for 5 days. I wanted some soup, I looked online they had Pepper jack Potato Soup. PERFECT. He gets home and it was EVERYTHING from home my tummy was missing and needing.Thank you AGAIN, I wish I would have ordered more.We will definitely be back.The Collins

This is in my hometown but I no longer live in the area. When I am back visiting family, I always make it a point to eat here. This is one of my favorite fish places on the planet. I highly recommend, even if you are just passing through it is well worth the stop as it isn't far from the interstate.

Went 1st time for dinner and only served burgers at lunch. I don’t eat anything else on the menu. I was trying to be accomidating to my wife and mother who do. Drank my unsweetened tea, which was good and left. Steak at Harbor Lite was great. Heard burgers are good, but I wouldn't know because I don't plan on going back. The service was fine. I don't blame them for management.

Stopped in for lunch. Heard the wings were good. I had an order of the Swee & Spicy Asian flavor wings. They are traditional bone-in wings. The sauce had great flavor and was sticky. The wings had been fried until the skin was crispy but not overcooked. I would recommend checking this place out for wings if you are in the area.

I wanted a place to go on my birthday and it was 8 degrees out side, and a holiday Monday so there were barely any places open. Lo and behold a nice fb group recommended this place, and it was a hit! First of all they had oysters, great size, great taste, great price for mid winter. We had wings as an app and they had a n amazing heat with h crunch and no sogginess Second the crab cakes were handmade and soooo good not too mention the potato salad, that I asked to purchase in a pint to take ho.e ??. I wanted to try the whole menu, but we will be back. The only thing that would make this place 6 stars is a homemade bloody with some.crab legs, but I digress. Super delicious and the staff was great. Can't wait to go back in the spring for some live music on the patio!

Very overpriced and very small portion. I ordered a $9 Philly steak kind of sandwich...came on a soft hamburger bun with less meat than a Mc double! Took one bite, thought it was kind old musky taste...put sauce on it..for a second bite...Nope! Waiter ask how I liked it...told him it was terrible...he charged me $4.50 because I took 2 bites! Wife had crab cakes...they were not made in house but frozen...I'm guessing From Sam's... Very nice Ambiance and very clean! Will Never go back.

Had two bad meals. Suggest they go to Wisconsin and get a real fish fry.
