Fish restaurant located right next to a fish market. This place truly looks like a roadside diner with a gravel parking lot and a three season indoor/outdoor porch. Actually kinda cool! It was plenty busy for being located on top of a mountain a few miles outside of town. But it was prime leaf peeping time, so I guess there were still a lot of tourists. Unfortunately due to this set up, they are only open from spring until fall (which in the Upper Peninsula might be kind of short!) You order through one window and wait for your number to be called and pick it up at different window. Many types of fish to choose from and it's prepared pretty quick. My wife and I got the same thing, Cod. Which was pretty good, but in hindsight, one of use should have gotten the Whitefish (local) so we could have tried it. Next time? Fries (chips) were good too. Very interesting place. Worth a try! read more

wow, i saw this place on a travel site and was so glad we decided to stop! It's super casual, with walk up ordering and picnic seating. W both enjoyed our fish, i had a perch sandwich and i was super impressed with how tasty it was! read more

One of the all time best fish and chips I've had. Best fries anywhere, hands down. The fish was cooked fresh, lightly breaded, not greasy. Tartar sauce is homemade, more mayonnaise forward, very little pickle. I tasted enough to try it. Didn't eat the coleslaw as I just don't like southern style slaw (yes, I'm from the south). And the chowder with the jalapeno was delicious! I will recommend this place to everyone traveling to this area. I love the restaurant. It's in a trailer with a covered porch. You can dine inside or out, plenty of tables in the field next to the restaurant. Signs on the wall are eclectic and fun to read. read more

Four Suns Fish And Chips - Fried white fish with fries and chowder with jalapeño emulsion. - Seafood Near Me - Hancock, Michigan

Four Suns Fish and Chips is a must if you're on the Houghton-Hancock area. Fresh caught fish made to perfection. If you haven't had fresh whitefish, it's a must! My husband and I brought my in-laws. We ordered the fried whitefish basket with coleslaw and baked potato (option of fries, bake potato, sweet potato, or risotto). My husband ordered the Parmesan crusted whitefish basket. Everything was so delicious. Even on a random Tuesday night, Four Suns is busy. Definitely this where to be. There is ample parking and seating (indoor and outdoor). Dog friendly picnic style sitting too. There are porta potties that are wheelchair accessible. read more

If I could leave more stars I would! We were in Houghton 5 days and went here multiple times. Four Suns knows how to do fish and chips well! I don't typically eat fish as it is too fishy for me, well....I ate multiple baskets of the friend whitefish with a squeeze of lemon. It was soooo good. My husband got the cod one time and the perch the others. Cod was okay, but nothing amazing. He loved the perch! Said it was super flavorful. The French friends are perfectly crisp with a soft interior and the Cole slaw is tangy and sweet with a creamy texture. We really enjoyed it! The place itself is cute with a lot of outside seating, and a few tables inside. The signs all over the walls were fun to read while eating, and made for additional conversation beyond raving about the food. We will definitely be back! read more

Fresh fried Whiting is a wonderful thing. This was ordered and it came out after about 10 minutes. It came out hot and was perfect. I had a side of their delicious slaw and a side of risotto. I like to try everybody's slaw. The risotto was an unexpected surprise. Both were excellent. This place is casual and has outdoor seating. I haven't had such good fish in years. It was exceptional. My wife had the fried whiting sandwich with fries, amazing! read more

I thought I'd love this place but the food itself was a flop. Fries were not hot and had clearly been sitting around for a while. Fish was overcooked, dry, under/not seasoned, and not crisp. I think my order sat around for a while as service seemed to have a gap of time between ones before me and when mine came out. The place did have a good, casual atmosphere with indoor seating options and several outdoor tables, including several shaded spots. I enjoyed sitting outside. Definitely won't go back and don't recommend, as good atmosphere doesn't outweigh borderline bad food. read more

Came here on a Tuesday at around 5pm and there was no line. My partner ordered the deep fried perch fish basket and I got the parmesan crusted whitefish (fish only). The fries in my partner's order was amazing! I regretted not getting the fish basket too or just a side of fries. The deep fried perch was amazingly crispy, the tartar was very good (even for someone who doesn't normally like tartar), and the parmesan crusted whitefish was very tasty! We got it for takeout to eat while charging the car 10 minutes away. Even for crunch was still perfect even for doing takeout. This place was better than any place in London for me as this was not soggy. I highly recommend 4 Suns if you're in the area. read more

Even on a Wednesday night, it was still lively and full of people. The young woman at the window where you order was very sweet and answered any questions I had and was patient. I appreciate how kind everyone is up in the UP. The food? Incredible. The whitefish was so fresh and flaky, it was delightful. The French fries were perfectly crispy and I could eat those non-stop. The chowder was amazing. The jalapeno immulsion added a subtle heat that was a welcome addition. There were chunks of white fish in there, and huge pieces of potato. It was a perfect chowder. The risotto wasn't something to write home about, and definitely not something Gordon Ramsay would serve in Hell's Kitchen, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. Next time I'll just opt for fries. read more

Everything we wanted our first UP whitefish experience to be! Our sons got perch, I had the tacos (baked) and my husband the baked whitefish and the chowder. We were sad we only stopped in on our last day bc we would have been repeat customers all week!! Fresh, breezy, silly signs for kids to giggle about. thank you! read more

Very good. Had the Whitefish basket with fries and coleslaw. $20.00. Staff friendly. Cute signs to read while waiting for food. Outdoor dining with open porch. Pet friendly. read more

Totally did not expect such an excellent meal. The place really looks like a dump, but the fish is terrific. I went with Parm Crusted Whitefish and my wife got the Singapore Chili Whitefish. I know my picture doesn't really do justice, looks like a plate of fries, but it was excellent. A++++++. Fries look to be battered, just awesome. My wife said her Singapore was okay and that she wouldn't order it again. Also, we really did not like the Smoked Fish Chowder. It was okay, just not for us. Prepare for a line and a wait. Staff was great. Would recommend in a heartbeat. read more

Delish! I got the Singapore chili baked whitefish to be gluten free, and a side of amazing fries with bug flake salt crystals(probably cross contamination for celiac). Friends got deep fried white fish and said it's the best meal we've had all week. Tartar sauce amazing. Highly recommend. There's a porta potty or go into the fish market next door to buy some fish dip and use a real bathroom. read more

Great place for fish and chips. $20 a meal. My husband and I went for lunch so we split a 4 piece meal. Quick service.

We both got fried white fish coleslaw. I got fries. My husband got a baked potato. The service was excellent. The ambiance is really relaxed and reading all the signs is really fun. However, neither of us liked the breading. It was heavy and mine was burned. It also had a weird taste to it I used to get fried white fish at a place in Ferndale Mi called Heather Hills, run by an elderly Scots couple The breading was light and billowy. The fish was chunky and hot and tasty. I was hoping this would be like that. But it wasn't. I didn't eat mine and so I wasn't $24 ( I got a coke). After reading the reviews I had high hopes.We were hoping to enjoy the bounties of Lake Superior, read more

This place is amazing! The fish is great and the atmosphere in there is awesome. And the service is very good and fast.

Great fish and chips. Local and wonderful. Nice seating indoor and outdoor. Try the risotto.

Such a cool place! Really fun atmosphere for eating outside or on the porch and enjoying the view. And quite possibly the best fish I've ever had!! I like the options available, such as baked or fried fish, and the traditional fries could be swapped out for a different side. I enjoyed a baked potato instead. Four Suns is a must-try if you like fish and are in the Hancock area! read more

Always one of my first stops when I'm in town. Simply delicious food and some of the best fish in the area. As far as I'm concerned the only thing you should ever get here (because it is hands down the best fish option) is the fried whitefish basket with fries. The fish is so fresh, succulent, juicy, and fried perfectly every time. The portions are very generous and you wont leave hungry. The fries are also great, perfectly salty and crisp. I always ask for honey mustard for dipping but they also have ketchup and ranch. I've tried the fish tacos as well but they were bland in comparison. You walk into the shop and order at the counter and get a number to wait for your food. On a warm sunny day you can sit outside on a bench with a great view of the Quincy Mine Hoist across the street. I also like to order it to go and take to the canal to eat with a view of the water. Great food and great portions! read more

Four Suns was the most delicious place I've ever had fresh fried White Fish. The fish was mouth watering, flaky soft delicate and awesome. Down right home made. It tastes better than if you freshly caught it and fried it at the shoreline. I wish I could buy it at home. The fish is as fresh and delicious as it can be. They should train culinary schools how to train top chefs to cook fish. No one does it better. Caught the same day in Lake Superior. I can't describe in words how delicious it was. The fries, coleslaw and tartar sauce was great too. It is by far the best place I've eaten white fish in the UP and America. I'd go an hour out of my way to eat here. It's conveniently located across the street from Quincy Mine right behind the fish market. Definitely a must stop on every trip. An epic long lasting food experience! read more

We were driving by and noticed this restaurant on our way to checkout the whitefish store next door. We were starving so decided to eat there instead. Oh my gosh, the deep fried whitefish basket with the sweet potato was amazing!!! This rivaled the whitefish my grandma used to make when I was little (she would fillet a whole fish and pan fry it). It was perfectly fried, the texture and flavor was spot on, and as someone who prefers vinegar for dipping I have to say this tartar sauce was the best I've ever tried. The coleslaw had a nice bite and the sweet potato was so delicious especially with the added butter and brown sugar. Plus the portions are so generous. I wish I lived closer instead of 9 hours away, I would eat here every week if I could!!! read more

Amazing fish! Also the risotto was amazing! Thanks for the great meal! Right behind the fish market, hard to spot on the road

If you are in the Houghton area and you want to eat at one place then this is it! Our meal was amazing! The ambiance is trailer like and very open to the air but that makes the meal even more enjoyable. My wife and I could not decide where to eat so we went here on a whim. Well, some Singapore chili baked whitefish and fried whitefish made us realize this was the best meal we have had in awhile. Simple, fast, and consistent! Can't wait to come back! And reminder bring your cooler because the fish market is next door! read more

Loved this spot for fresh Superior whitefish, fresh fries, coleslaw, and baked potatoes. The fish was as fresh as one would expect in the U.P., and the sides were perfectly done. The coleslaw was not drowning in mayonnaise, the fries were not scrawny and salty, and the baked potatoes were fabulous. Service was friendly; the atmosphere was fun. Bathrooms are not available on site, but you can walk next door to use the stalls. They have a sink outdoors to wash hands; there is a warning sign about the water: "do not drink from this fountain." Highly recommend! read more

After reading reviews we were very excited to try Four Suns. We arrived and the place was was busy, this told us it was going to be great. The service was quick and friendly, but the food was average. We enjoyed the fries, but the fish was just ok. read more

The restaurant is called "Four Suns." It sits just back from Peterson's Fish Market, which has EXCELLENT fresh and smoked fish. I love whitefish, and I love fried fish and I have never had better than at Four Suns. Even in England! Everything is cooked fresh and is served super-crispy. The fries are great, too. It may not be the most healthy way to eat fish, but ya gotta live a little once in a while. I have friends near there now and I am craving Four Suns. I'm sure they'll thank me for the recommendation and go on and on about the food. read more

I was told this was the best fish & chips restaurant in the upper peninsula in MI. We went and had a GREAT meal. We both had the Parnassian baked white fish with two sides. Price was really reasonable. It's take out but they have plenty of casual seating open air inside and plenty of tables outside to eat at. Staff was very friendly and helpful with questions. They serve assorted non alcoholic drinks. The locals know this is where to eat. They handled the amount of volume of patrons with great efficiency. There is plenty of parking. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

If you are in Houghton and you do not eat here...you're an idiot! Hands down the best cuisine in the UP and it's basically a food stand. Everything is fresh and the risotto is perfect. Do not skip the Whitefish chowder the depth of flavor with the jalapeño emulsion is remarkable. They catch their own fish and one of the "suns" is a trained Chef what more can you ask for? read more

Smoked fish chowder was absolutely amazing, and the fried whitefish was some of the best I've had. Highly recommend.
