I ordered a ribeye steak. First couple bites were good but after that it was mostly gristle. We told waitress but she didn't do anything about it. My husband had the prime rib which was really good. Very disappointed. We've been there before and it was always good.

We had a really good lobster bisque for lunch. Great service in a wonderful location.

We came for brunch. Dana was an excellent server. The view is always a treat!.Ordered the vegetarian omelet. It had very little feta and could taste no seasoning. Was looking for something savory in this dish.It is always a risk to order Eggs Benedict, but was hoping this chef had it right. At first glance of my plate, I could tell that the sauce was very thick… like a bechamel. That is exactly what was served… a yellow bechamel… not that exclusively buttery lemony flavor. I kept sample tge sauce, looking for that signature lemon. Could not eat it. Ordered medium poached eggs. One of them actually squirted water over the English museum, followed by runny egg white. Ate the eggs and muffin, but this was disappointing.

This was the 3rd time we dined here since new ownership took over a year or so. The third time was indeed a "charm". Since it was NYE weekend a special menu was served. The crusted halibut and lobster bisque were done to perfection. My wife loved the lobster stuffed ravioli. All food came out hot... and all portions were very generous. The basics. Our server Margaret was knowledgeable and treated us like a guest in her home! The drinks were great. They also have a large NA drink selection (for my wife) which is pretty unusual in WI. The ambiance was OK but maybe could use tablecloths and real candles ( not battery ones). We will definitely return.

We went off-season and had the whole place to ourselves. It was a magical night full of magic and enchantment. Flavors abound with hints of decadence. The chef was on his game. Our server took great care of us. We considered that evening to be the highlight of our trip.Wheelchair accessibility: Street parking and several stairs to enter

My husband and I dined at the Harbor Fish Market & Grille on October 14th, 2023 to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary.When we arrived, we were led to our table promptly, even though we were early for our reservation. Our kind server, Kayla, immediately took our drink orders and started us with some warm bread and butter. We enjoyed it while sipping on our drinks and looking at the menu. The menu was large, but not overwhelming. We each ordered our food. We ordered crab cakes and lobster bisque as an appetizer. I ordered the scallops with sweet potato & brussels sprout hash. My husband ordered the ribeye with Korean barbecue brussels sprouts and potatoes au gratin. We also ordered a side of brown butter sage gnocchi.We were served our meals approximately 10-15 minutes after we ordered. It didn’t feel like we were waiting a while. Although it did give me some time to look at the decor. It was a little outdated, but it did not detract from the overall relaxing atmosphere.We were served the lobster bisque first. It was mediocre at best. It was under salted and needed some heat. We used the salt and pepper provided on the table, which we were very disappointed in. The pepper must have been at least a year old because it was tasteless. The servers should bring a pepper mill to the table and ask the patrons if they would like freshly cracked pepper on their dishes. The salt on the table was obviously iodized salt, which is a culinary nightmare unless you want your guests’ food to taste like a penny. It’s tacky to put salt on the table in a fine dining establishment in the first place (because you should expect your food to be adequately salted), and even worse to assault your guests’ tastebuds with the McDonald’s equivalent of salt at a fancy restaurant.When we got our meals, I asked about our appetizer that we ordered (the crab cakes). Our server said she forgot them, but apologized and made it right by offering us a free dessert. I took her up on it and we skipped the crab cakes.When I looked at my plate of food, it was beautifully plated, however it seemed a little overkill. There was caviar atop my scallops, sweet potato and brussel hash, a few grilled carrots, and some sauce. It was much too busy. I tried the scallops first, without the caviar. To my surprise, the scallops were slightly undercooked and tasted fishy. I only ate one of the five I was served. The brussels sprout and sweet potato hash was bland and, like everything else I had eaten thus far, needed salt. The grilled carrots were my favorite thing on the plate.Now for my husband’s meal. He said the ribeye was cooked nicely and he enjoyed it. The brussels sprouts could have used less sauce, as they were swimming in it. However, the flavor was excellent. The au gratin potatoes were not his favorite, the potatoes were cubed, which is not how au gratin potatoes are supposed to be made. They should have been scalloped.The brown butter sage gnocchi was enjoyed by both of us equally and we had no complaints about it.For our free dessert, we chose the cherry bread pudding. I have a huge sweet tooth, so my hopes were high, but I was let down again. There were maybe 3 cherries in the whole slice and it was not flavorful.All in all, spending $140 before tip made us extremely disappointed. We will not be back.

amazing food and staff. During the winter it gives cozy hallmark cottage vibes. But my favorite time to visit is in the summer because you can sit outside and enjoy a drink by the lake.
Excellent! Both the Whitefish Chowder and the Lobster Bisque were so good! The best Lobster Bisque we've ever had... even better than what we've had visiting the east coast! Everything else was cooked to perfection and presentation was beautiful. Service was very good...we didn't feel rushed at all, keeping in mind it's the off season. The ambiance very nice. All in all, it made for nice relaxing evening!

The fish bisque was very good. I would eat every time I went to door county if I had it my way.

wow, what a disappointment. very very special day for us-oct 1st. I called and spoke to a woman about my reservation and what we would like and they assured me they could accommodate us. we arrived on time, dressed up and was told they had no reservation for us. after about 5 mins they said 'oh, just two of you? Right this way'. The table was a joke. Nothing special and not with a view. The service was TERRIBLE. I WAS SO ANGRY. OMG. The food was ok but our waitress was so bad it was comical. They ruined our evening and it was expensive. I'll never return. (I hardly ever write reviews but I wouldnot trust them with a casual lunch) seriously one of the biggest flop of an evening for us. We drove 7 hours for this? They should be ashamed.

Very disappointed. I had stuffed noodles with browned butter that made then ugly and greasy. Minimal filling. My husband’s whitefish was excellent but potatoes were cold and dry. Waitress eventually got more hot water for my tea. Also very slow to ask if we wanted anything else.

What a wonderful meal. Perfectly delicious. Our server Dana was friendly and charming. We started with the Maytag salad that was marvelous. My husband had the Ahi Tuna which he said was awesome and I had the Agnolotti Ravioli with perfectly cooked scallops. Definitely will return.
