Grabbed dinner last night at Audie's…read more We are close enough to Canada when Poutine was offered we opted for it as the starter. It arrived without the customary cheese curds, but the gravy was right. The cheese was cheesy, which is important. Overall, a good dish and one I would eat again. We opted to share the Canadian Perch platter with a baked potato. For $2.00 extra dollars (for a shared plate) we were each given our own potato. The fish was crispy, flavorful, and filling. The tartar sauce...chef's kiss. The right amount of tang, and it was homemade. Was tempting to just drink the rest of it. Staff were all friendly and the atmosphere was casual. If you happen to be in the area, stop in and visit. They have a wide variety of sandwiches and fish platters to choose from.

(I wanted to go to the Keyhole as my first choice but was overruled) I had the steak hoagie with onion rings, and he had the white fish dinner. Both were very good.

Outside of that came around often to check on us. The food was above average 7/10, if you come get the fish. The Parmesan crusted walleye was pricey but big and cooked perfectly.

The artichoke spinach dip was good and came with plenty of pita chips. The blue gill (ordered without the Cajun seasoning) was good as well. Our side order of veggies (asparagus that night) was very tiny for the price. Overall everything was good but nothing stood out to us.

Our server Lisa was so warm and friendly (as if she was your mother) and took great care of us! Got the parmesan topped whitefish with creamy mushroom soup and coleslaw. The mushroom soup was creamy and hearty. I liked the coleslaw - just the right amount of sweet and sour for me. I enjoyed the fish very much. We would have gotten some desserts but we were so full. We did see that the cheesecake slices were huge! Would definitely recommend this place!

Excellent, friendly service from Lisa. Ambiance is small town family restaurant with wooden booths…read moreand lots of light. To place a carry out order, you must come inside and sit down at a table, then tell your server that you want to place a to go order. Lisa was helpful, told me the order would be out pretty quickly, and she brought me a glass of water for while I waited. I ordered the mackinaw burger with onion rings, and hot ham and cheese with fries. I also ordered a coconut cream pie and a Dutch cherry pie slice. All of this was to go, and she packed it up and brought me carry-bags for it. The coconut cream pie was good. The Dutch cherry was ok but, I have had better. The French fries were good--crispy and lightly seasoned. The onion rings were large and hot/fresh, but they are battered (I prefer breaded), and they are pretty greasy. The burger was nice sized and cooked well done, which I like. It came with cheese, lots of pickles, relish, lots of mustard, and just a little ketchup. The hot ham and cheese was okay. I chose white bread rather than rye or wheat. The bread was not special--seemed like white bread you'd buy at any grocery in a plastic wrapper. There's an up-charge for the onion rings. I say skip that and get the fries. For the 2 sandwiches, 1 with fries, one with onion rings, and 2 pieces of pie, my bill was $51.36 before any tip added on. I get that it's a short season up north here, so I expect everything to be a little pricey. If the burger had a bit of char and came on an upscale bun, if the hot ham and cheese came on a thicker toasted bread, I'd say ok. But for what we got, it was overpriced.

We came here looking for a good breakfast and found a fair one. We arrived here to the place…read moredeserted just after the opening time. We ordered our food and more people came in though the place didn't fill up more than a few booths. The bacon, eggs, and toast were all good, but the pancakes were definitely lacking in our opinion. The service was fine, not exemplary, but didn't fail to show up or be timely. The location is quiet and plays classical music. If you're staying in a hotel and would prefer a non-complimentary breakfast meal you could do worse.

We visited around 10:30 a.m. today, and it wasn't busy. We waited about five minutes before anyone…read moreacknowledged us at the door because there wasn't a hostess in sight. While we were waiting, another family arrived after us and stood there for about 15 minutes without anyone greeting them or even saying, "We'll be right with you." Once we were seated, we were placed in a corner while most other guests were seated out on the main dining floor. It honestly felt like we were forgotten about. Our waitress rarely came back to our table. We were seated at a table with no napkins in the dispenser, so we had to ask for those, and no straws were brought with our drinks. It was difficult to even get our waitress's attention. If you're staying at the hotel and planning to use the breakfast coupon, be aware that only four menu items qualify, and none of them are particularly appealing or a good value. I ordered a Diet Pepsi but was served Dr Pepper instead. I assumed it was an honest mistake the first time, but my refill was also Dr Pepper. When I finally mentioned it, I was told that their "Diet Coke" was Dr Pepper, which didn't make any sense since Dr Pepper and Diet Coke are completely different soft drinks. To top it off, our bill was over $60 for food that was average at best. Overall, the service and value just weren't there. I'd recommend saving your money and eating at Darrow's or Pancake Chef instead.

The setup is pretty interesting, with seating available both downstairs and upstairs. We ended up sitting upstairs, but unfortunately, we waited about 30 minutes before anyone came over to take our order. Our group ordered the Pulled Pork Sandwich, American Burger, and Western Burger, all of which came with a side of chips. The food was okay, but honestly, it wasn't anything to write home about. Overall, it wasn't a terrible experience, but the long wait for service and average food made it difficult to stand out. There are probably other places in Mackinaw City I'd try before returning here.

Disappointed in the lack of pizza ingredients, but overheard our table neighbors indicate the crust on their pizza wasn't so good, sounds like it worked out for us in the end. 1 star for not having onefo Guess it's a progressive dinner tonight.
