Hands down the best restaurant ever! We had my mom’s birthday here with 50 people and it was perfect! Food, service, atmosphere and cost was by far a must refer experience. We were all treated like family there and we will never hesitate to book everything there.
Very good place to get together and enjoy

Went for the first time on 8.23.24. We thoroughly enjoyed our walleye and cod dinners so we went back again on 8.25 and again, enjoyed our meals (prime rib med rare, and eggplant parmesan). The broccoli was also delish and cooked to perfection, not mushy like some places serve. Same for the green beans, they were perfect also. Definitely going to be one of our regular go-tos now. Also liked our server, Gary ?
Update - Went back again 8/30, and got Gary again for our Server ? Decided to try the Perch dinner this time and wow, was the best I've had, and I've tried the perch in many many restaurants - the batter didn't fall off, it was perfectly cooked! As was the broccoli and rice. Partner went with the eggplant parmesan for a 2nd time and said it was perfect also. Love a restaurant that is consistent!!!! And oh, the cheesecake is smooth and delish! Thank you chef!! And to Gary! We WILL be back - and will be recommending!

I had to try walleye while visiting Michigan. They did not disappoint. Nicely battered and fried with great house santa anna potatoes (scalloped) and decent sized side salad. The salad also had cranberries in it. ( I added the pepper on the salad) And a bonus of soft roll and bread sticks comes with the meal. A very busy restaurant and for good reason they serve excellent food. You will not go away hungry

Food good, not very pricey, can dock there and have dogs outside. The only complaint i have is service and timeliness when eating outside. They are doing renovations outside. Just remember, this is a very old restaurant and popular with locals, so set expectations for fancy out the window

Pleasantly surprised. Food was good, plenty of staff. Had a good sized dining area and tables in the bar area with a darker, neon vibe with sports on multiple tvs.

Place can be a little hit or miss, but we go back for a reason so it must be more hit than miss. Expect it to be tight seating and possibly too loud if that bothers you, if you go during rush. Their weekend special steak is good, too. They'll have the game on.

Though the staff was lovely being charged a full $9 to add chicken to fettuccine Alfredo felt really rather high. I suppose we missed something in the menu that said adding a protien was the same as adding an additional entree. That said the staff and environment were all quite lovely.
