The oysters were incredibly fresh, but the lobster roll was definitely the highlight for me. So meaty, juicy, and delicious. The drinks were really good too.

Sooo... I really wanted to love this place…read more We made a day trip to Door County and had a long list of restaurants to choose from. After reading countless reviews, we picked this one as our #1 dinner choice because it seemed to have great vibes and a beautiful outdoor garden overlooking Lake Michigan. The setting absolutely lived up to the hype, and that alone earns it a star. We arrived a little early for our reservation and decided to grab a drink at the bar. My mom simply asked if they had any watermelon or pineapple seltzers, and instead of answering, the bartender just handed her a drink menu and walked away. It was a small interaction, but it came across as dismissive, so we decided not to order drinks. We were seated shortly after in a wonderful spot in the garden. We had our dog with us, and it was the perfect outdoor setting for her to relax while we enjoyed dinner. Our server was pleasant, but she didn't seem very attentive or able to read the table. We started with the Brussels sprouts, which were delicious and probably the highlight of the meal. We know this restaurant is especially known for its whitefish and lobster boil. After tasting our meals, my mother said she wished she had ordered the whitefish since we'd heard such amazing things about it. Unfortunately, when it became obvious that we weren't enjoying our food, our server never asked if something was wrong or if we'd like to try something else. The crab Rangoon dip was just okay. The lobster bisque was completely flavorless--the worst lobster bisque I've ever had, and I order it whenever it's on a menu. The sage butter gnocchi was equally bland and lacked any real flavor. My mom ordered the ribeye, and she said it tasted more like a sirloin and was totally overcooked. It lacked the rich flavor you'd expect from a ribeye and had quite a bit of fat. She only ate a few bites before giving most of it to the dog. The vegetables (I believe asparagus or broccolini) weren't good, and the au gratin potatoes were equally disappointing. The only real win was my son's chicken tenders. He's an extremely picky eater, and he genuinely enjoyed them. What disappointed us most was how the situation was handled. When our server checked back, she asked how everything was, and we replied, "It's alright." Later, when she saw that our plates were still mostly full and asked if we wanted boxes, we said no. That would have been the perfect opportunity to ask if something was wrong or if there was anything they could do. Instead, the conversation ended there and the check was placed on the table. At that point, we just wanted to leave. Between the underwhelming service, the bland food, and the high prices, the experience simply wasn't worth it. We left feeling incredibly disappointed, annoyed and hungry. It's unfortunate because the location and atmosphere are beautiful, and we truly wanted this restaurant to be a highlight of our trip. Sadly, if we make it back to Baileys Harbor, we won't be returning.

The whitefish with melted butter is amazing. The fish boil also comes with potatoes, corn, Cole slaw, a drink, and cherry pie. One of the best parts of the experience is the fish boil demonstration. They take the time to explain the ingredients, cooking process, and history behind this Door County tradition. Great storytelling and a fun experience to watch! Outdoor seating is available, and the entire experience is well worth it. If you're visiting Door County and want to experience a traditional fish boil, Pelletier's is a great choice. Highly recommend! Thank You

After making reservations for the fish boil on Labor Day, I arrived and checked in at 5 for a great…read morespeech about tradition and inclusivity only to then have one of the worst experiences. Once at our table we waited 40+ min before I could flag down a server. During which the table of 10+ next to us left, they cleaned the table, sat 10 more people and served them the fish bowl. The server served every other table in the restaurant before talking to us, including checking on two of the tables near us again to make sure they had everything included in the meal. Finally after every single other person in the restaurant was served and checked on, the waitress walked by and stated " did the other waitress serve you?". I said no and began going over our order which included a non lactose meal which the waitress stated " I can read..." and walked away. Only to then be brought not only the wrong plate but not be brought bread or corn. I had to point it out and the waitress stated "oh, I guess you're right." Then clearly overheard that they were out of fish, clearly the reason my wife was given the wrong meal. I again want to be clear that the table next to us had their entire meal start to finish already at this point and this was a prearranged meal that should have been served with everyone else at that fish boil time. It was clear that our server would rather die than speak to me as I raised my hand again and again every time she passed by. Finally she stopped by the table and said that they were cooking our food in the back and that it would be out shortly. I asked for an explanation as the entire meal should have been cooked in the fish boil and not separately. The waitress laughed and said "it's boiled in water out there, it's boiled in water in the back, what's the difference..." my wife then said we need to speak to a manager since that's not the experience. Another person stepped over 5-10 min later and said let me explain that we are cooking it and it will be out shortly, confused we asked if it was cooked in the fish boil and if she was the manager, which she said no. Finally the manager did come over, however after an hour and a half my wife had already left. I felt completely unwelcome, like we were the problem. The manager did comp the meal however stated that "what did we want there was fish...?" again my wife never received her correct meal as they were out of fish. I am honestly so confused as to how or why the waitress wanted to completely avoid serving us, not bring food after we were the last ones left, get another server when asked for her manager to confuse us more, and the manager to clearly just want us to leave as soon as possible... as if we were the problem for eating there. This experience took over 2 hours,

With fairy lights, long wooden tables, and a cute covered bar, the rooftop was beautiful and made for a perfect spot to enjoy the nice weather. The staff were super nice and patient, making guests feel right at home. For drinks, I tried the guava cocktail, which was very refreshing and not too sweet. It even came with beautiful edible flowers and a cute lipstick temporary tattoo! Our group split the cheese curds for an appetizer- while they could have been crispier, the cheese pull was very satisfying and they were served with the most delicious cherry dipping sauce. I opted for the ahi tuna tacos for the main event, which were great as a lighter option. The fish was surprisingly fresh and had the perfect sauce/topping ratio so that all the flavors came through. The watermelon served alongside was at peak sweetness as well. We left satisfied and with plenty of leftovers- if you're in the area and looking for a nice spot to enjoy the weather over tasty food, I recommend paying a visit!

It you are interested in dining on the outdoor patio, get there early or show up late…read more We really wanted to dine here as the reviews were good and definitely wanted to sit outside with a bay view. When we contacted the restaurant, they recommended we come before 5PM to get a table outside. We showed up at 4:55PM and got the last table! They have a great craft beer selection including IPA's (which is big plus for me). We started with the Salmon Tartare ($18) which was a light and flavorful selection in which we both enjoyed. My bride went with the Salmon ($36) and I went with the Halibut ($42) and we both loved our selections including the sides! They were so well prepared and perfect dishes for out tastes.

The appetizer salad was beautifully constructed with crunchy, wonderfully fresh veggies. And a ranch that was delicious (I don't usually love ranch). My entree was the chicken katsu which was huge and so crispy with a a sweet lovely sauce drizzled over it. And the cherry pie for dessert was the perfect ending.

There are not many places in Door County where you get quality, well prepared food...as sad as it…read moremakes me to say that. However, to give credit where it is due, Cut is one of the exceptions. The 18oz ribeye seemed more like Choice instead of Prime in terms of tenderness, which is mostly why they get 4 instead of 5 stars, though it was still pretty good. Service and atmosphere were very good to excellent. My only knock is that the wine-by-the-glass selection is a little sparse. Only having 4 or 5 reds to pick from is not adequate for a steakhouse. Usually, our go-to for an upscale night out has been Chives, but after poor service, declining food quality, and them losing our reservation last time we tried to visit, we've stopped going. We may give Chives another chance at some point, but our visit to Cut was a far better experience than any we've ever had anywhere else.

We stopped in without a reservation and were told it would be about a 20-minute wait. They gave us a pager so we could wander around a bit, and the wait ended up being very manageable. There's also a full bar, and you definitely get the feeling this is a neighborhood kind of place -- we noticed quite a few regulars being greeted while we were there, which is always nice to see. My husband and I both ordered the fish and chips, and they were very good. The atmosphere is definitely casual rather than fancy, so come as you are and relax. It was extremely windy the day we visited, so the large garage-style doors were closed. I imagine having those open on a beautiful Door County day would completely change the feel of the restaurant. Overall, we had a perfectly nice experience. The food was good and the restaurant had a friendly, local feel. With so many restaurants to explore in Door County, I'm not sure it would be at the top of my list for a return visit, but I'm glad we gave it a try.
