One ordered the pulled pork and it was perfect. The other 2 of us decided to split a perch dinner. When the food arrived we were all hungry. We dug into the perch. After a few bites, it was clear that this was NOT perch. The server stopped by, and I asked her what, exactly we were eating. She had no clue, but agreed that it was not perch. We never did get an answer, but got a 25% cut off the bill. This was very disappointing. And because of this, we did not return for more dinners as we had planned. C'mon 211. Y'all are better than this.

(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. We sat at the bar to eat and the bartender was great. The food was delivered quickly and there were lots of TVs to watch as you ate. I will be going back next time I am in Mackinaw City!

When checking in to our hotel we asked the front desk receptionist for the best place to eat…read moredinner. She said hands down, The Keyhole Bar & Grill. It did not disappoint at all. We both had fish, my wife the walleye and me the whitefish. (I had it blackened and it was a couple extra bucks though. I've never seen additional fee for blackened.) BUT nonetheless it was EXTREMELY delicious. They also had a wide variety of craft beers. It was crowded but got in after only about a 5 minute wait. (too cold for the outside seating area). We were in the back by the pool table but wasn't too bad and not too loud so we could carry on a conversation. Alicia our waitress was extremely nice and the service was extremely quick considering how busy it was. So, our front desk receptionist was absolutely correct. HANDS DOWN !

The hours are created by someone who obviously doesn't need the income (open 11-8) It's tough to get off the water and get in before 8 in the summer, then like the rest of the town.. it's closed except the local bar that stays open. The food: Not impressed. 1/8# burgers with the same pricing as a normal restaurant. Fish and chips $4-5 more than average. A medium rare cheeseburger is served well-done Server was very sweet, but not knowledgeable at all. (We really don't blame her at all) We asked about 3 different items, and she was honest about not trying any dishes, maybe new? Day one training should have given staff a taste of signature food so they have something to share with customers. It was also obvious she forgot to put our drink order in and took forever to bring it to us. The place has a great view of the river, but we were so let down after waiting so long to get in. So many spoke so highly of this place, we were really hoping it to be a great experience-but it's really nothing to brag about. We finally came by during mid-afternoon while it was pouring, minimal customers and service should have been on point, but it wasn't. I can't recommend this place at all. Save your money and go to Great Lakes Grill down the street. (I didn't want to give this place any stars, but Yelp requires at least one to post)
