Restaurants in Ironwood

“Its a toss up between Randall's and Joe's. I'd give this place the edge on taste, flavor and they have a chicken cordon bleu pasty whereas Randall's does not offer anything chicken.”

“HOLY COW!! This bistro is a diamond find in the UP. Situated in Ironwood MI, as the Chef’s “retirement plan. Run by a Master Chef and his delightful wife, who are living their retirement plan. The unbelievably tasty food competes with the likes of Zingerman’s in Ann Arbor, or Mudgie’s in Detroit. I had the delicious BLT, which was unlike any other BLT I’ve ever had. It was that great! Thick sliced multigrain bread, filled with thick crispy bacon, tomatoes, greens, and a sauce that was so extremely delicious. Portion: HUGE! I am saving the other half for tomorrow. Spencer got the meatloaf sandwich, which was “the best sandwich I’ve ever had.,”per someone who has sampled some of the best sandwiches in Seattle, Chicago and Detroit. What a gem!! Chef Paul Sardinia is an award winning Master Chef whose culinary style and menu, is something I’d expect to see in NYC, Chicago, or the culinary scene in Detroit. Prices are perfect for the portion and taste. Anyway, the best yummy strong son and I’ve had the pleasure of dining, in a long time.”

“We had an amazing server! I didnt get her name! I always worry about bringing my 3 year old to restaurants and she was so sweet with her. Food was great!”

“The bitter beer was very good. I was there for the Plaidurday festival. It doesn't get any better than having great craft beer and Dig Deep!”

“Awesome place to stop. Great vibes. Drinks are tasty!”

“Nice café. Good food value for the price. I had the veggie omlette w added bacon crumble. It was huge! Ate Half. Loved that the owner/chef sautéed the veggies before putting into the omlette. It was perfect. My husband enjoyed his Eggs, Ham and hash browns too.”

“Has a very expansive (and still expanding!) menu with options for anyone's pallete! I had the Winter Rose Vodka Spritz and it did not disappoint, I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!”

“We’ve stopped a few times now as we live 34/40 minutes away. Breakfast is our way to start a day of shopping in Ironwood/Hurley.”

“Love this place, it is a beautiful place to have your special party. I've attended weddings, Anniversary, birthday and baby showers here. The Aurora Club is very helpful in everything you need as well as accommodating special requests. The halls are bright and beautiful for any event.The staff is very friendly and accommodating... Love this place.”

“Excellent pizza, excellent food nice people! What more could you want!”

“We found this gem when we were hot and needing a break from the heat. We got ice cream and enjoyed the AC for a little bit. The bartender was amazing and so friendly. We have now made this a must stop when we stay in the area. I believe they only have pizzas for food. But they have delicious ice cream 🍦. Cash only with a ATM on site, so no biggie.”

“Great place for a cold beer!”

“This is the only Chinese restaurant I have like everytime I’ve come! They really care about their customers and are committed to their customers leaving with a positive experience! Nothing but positive things to say about the Golden Dragon.”

“I absolutely love going here now. I look forward to it every week! I just told my husband the other night this place is now one of my favorites to go to! Love the food, love the specialty cocktails and mocktails, and love the service!! Keep up the great work!!”

“We both tried pasties for the first time. Rigonis shipped them to us. OMG so delicious! We will visit in person this summer to try the other flavors!!!! Thank you!! PS I baked an extra one which is far too much for one meal. Tomorrow morning I will break it up and fry up in some butter with over easy eggs on it. Can't wait!!!”

“AMAZING coffee, pastries and parfaits! Stopped every day of our trip. 10/10 ☕️”

“better than Starbucks * Professional service. 🥑Fresh breakfast,🥯 sandwiches, 🥪 allergy friendly, gf 🍞options. 🍄 rishi tea 🫖 variety. Seasonal drink menus. 🧋 Chairs are wooden🪑, hard at indoor tables. 🛋️Couch available and loungers.”

“If you’re a foodie and looking for that hidden gem in a town where you’ve tried everything, and haven’t quite found what you’re looking for— this is the place! I get the vibe that some top food critic is going to come in disguise, sit down, and eat the best meal of his life. Then give top reviews and award a Michelin star like in all those movies and TV shows. Then boom, all of a sudden ironwood is on the map with a top tier restaurant and us locals can’t get in anymore. … Maybe I shouldn’t write that into existence though because I’d be super sad if I couldn’t sit down for a prime rib again. So food critics, please stay away and let us have this. :) All jokes aside, I did have the best prime rib of my life. I love that it’s a reservation system, giving a sense of eliteness but still providing a small town, homey, comfortable dining experience when you sit down. It’s quiet, perfect for a date night or a special occasion. This will be our go-to in the future! Thank you for a great meal!”

“food really good but seems like we always have to remind a waitress that we been sitting n waiting for anyone to take r order. as we see people coming in way after us n get wait on n order place b4 we even got to order r meal.”

“I always have a good time.the workers are kind and always give you what I want.and if they make a miss take they fix it right away.”
