As a meat eater, I went out on a limb and tried a vegan mushroom and roasted vegetable dish. It was unbelievably good, and I certainly was not disappointed that I passed on the beef.

The food here is amazing. I appreciated the selection of fresh and local ingredients. I like how they put everything on the same plate. It makes it feel cozy, like you’re eating at a family potluck. They also have several flavors of house-made sodas, which was a real treat. Everything came out real quick, too.
I’m taking off a star because I was disappointed to see that the kitchen is so open to the dining room. Maybe we were just sat at the worst spot, but I just expected more from a restaurant that’s on the upscale side (we paid over $100 for our dinner of 2, with only one drink each). And to get to the back dining room, you have to pretty much go through the kitchen to get there, it’s weird. It lowers the ambiance, and I’m sure the staff doesn’t appreciate costumers being able to watch (and hear) their every move, either.
Wheelchair accessibility: They are completely wheelchair accessible. No stairs or thresholds. Bathroom is large.

We came here in the afternoon on a winter day and sat at a table right by the window. Our waitress was great. The food was fantastic. Best lake trout we’ve ever had. They serve waffle fries as a standard, not as an additional charge and I appreciate that because who doesn’t love a waffle cut? Doing things right at Angry Trout.

Great fish sandwiches, every time. One of the kids meal options is a healthy looking hot dog instead of what you find most other places. They also have a solid veggie burger. Their root beer is very smooth and tasty. Beautiful views from the table of the big lake.

I've always enjoyed The Fisherman's Daughter, but wanted to try this place because of the reviews. I had the cod fish and chips and a glass of pop. 27 bucks. The breading on the fish was tough and thick. The waffle fries were subpar, and the cole slaw was dry and bland. The only plus was their lemon-lime pop.I did have a nice spot to eat looking out on the deck and the harbor. But I would have had better food at Subway or DQ.

The involuntary surcharges added up to almost 40% on top of the prices you see in the menu. The service fee is "included" and fixed at 20% but deserves maybe 12%.

Went there for the fish of the day Trout or Herring according to the front fish list and the person up front dealing with all the customers, said there was a 1/2 hr wait turned out it was 1 hr 14 minutes, we were seated told the server what we wanted & got a response that they were out of trout, I'm not a herring person but gave it a try my wife had chicken fingers, didn't take that long to get the food. Did eat it but if I would have been told at the beginning we probably would have went someplace else.

I'll say this place was pretty much perfect in every way. Excellent food and atmosphere. Our server, Miss Claire, was extremely friendly, attentive, and thoughtful.
Worth the wait food and service both were good they could put a Lil more effort in ambience and seating arrangements or else it's a good restaurant.

Absolutely a must in Grand Marais!!!
Vegetarian options: I had an amazing veggie skewer with chimichuri. Waffle fries with Airlines was tasty. The table shared the smoked fish platter(charcuterie) and it was a perfect starter.
Parking: There is plenty of parking on the streets in GM, you just need to walk a bit.
Kid-friendliness: Our 14 and 17 yo loved the patio seating, and Ellen our server felt like family by the time we left. So helpful with menu selection, quick to accommodate requests, and very forthcoming with ideas for places to hike and visit on our stay. 10/10 recommend!
