We stopped by here while we were in Escanaba. We did a wine tasting. You get a free wine glass with it. I enjoyed most of the wine. There is a mix of white, red and rosé. The bartender was very nice and friendly.

So glad we stopped here while we were passing through! They had a very nice selection of wines - specifically a lot of semi-sweet options which are my favorite. Definitely do a tasting to figure out what you like, have a glass and then buy a bottle! Our server was also amazing. She was extremely sweet - very friendly and chatted with us the entire time. Atmosphere - also amazing. Very cool, relaxed vibes.

Staff have always been friendly and informative, nice looking place, has some character. Wines are pretty decent- like the Old Escanaba.

Too bad it's closed for the season because I would be back in a heartbeat. They have very limited…read morehours even during the season so make reservations. Everything is made from scratch with flavorful sauces on every dish. Chef Swanson was there cooking with his wife which was so cool to be able to chat with him. Our favorite dish didn't have a photo because we ate it so quick. The fried green tomatoes were lightly breaded with a panko and pesto plus mozzarella. It was similar to a fried green tomato caprese salad. Yum! The rest of the dishes were amazing plus we tried the beet carrot cake for dessert and again perfect. There is outside seating with a view of the country. This place is very remote and you would never expect the quality of food for the price. This is an extension of the Milwaukee location where they hold special farm to table events plus bike rides etc. Please make sure you get here when it opens again because this place is a gem that we need to keep in business. There is nothing like this for miles around this area

Divine. We were…read moreenjoying a week in the north woods when I noticed Braise North and wondered if they were affiliated with Braise in Milwaukee--they are! They're only open Friday evenings and Sat-Sun. We stopped by on a Saturday morning and got the best meal of our trip. They're a cute spot with a lovely little indoor dining room as well as a patio. We opted to dine outdoors on the sunny Saturday morning we were there. I ordered the frittata and a caramel latte made with almond milk. The frittata came with a lightly dressed salad on the side. The salad was fine but the frittata was out of this world delicious. It was buttery with creamy goat cheese that was beautifully sharp and flavorful. My caramel latte was the best cup of coffee of my trip (so good with wonderfully rich espresso). My only hope is that they'll eventually expand their hours as I would have happily been in there every morning of my trip. They are a wine bar in the evenings as well (though we didn't stop by for that). The service was good if a bit disjointed (we received our meals and finished them before our coffee came out). But, aside from that small snag--exemplary all the way around. Get to it!

Her warmth and friendliness was matched by the staff who made our dining experience so comfortable. We were promptly seated and received outstanding service. Portions were large and meals come with bread and a house antipasto salad. Our meals were exceptional. My wife had Chicken Saltimbocca and I tried Linguine with Salmon. Chicken was flavorful; salmon was perfect; the pasta was 4 star. The food was so good that we even ventured into a dessert (rare for us). We tried a lemon cake with glaze and VERY fresh strawberries; it was wonderful. A small restaurant that is a gem and well worth it. An outstanding dining experience. Exceptional food; the service and atmosphere were amazing.

(Rest of the party was long done by the time we got meals). Asked for the manager but our server (Liz?) said she was the manager and tried to fix it by cooking the steaks more - kinda was uncool to sit while everyone else ate while 2 of our party were waiting. Food : steaks (see above), pesto pasta was good. Heirloom tomato salad was very good but star was tomatoes themselves and presentation was odd with dollop of dressing on each tomato - needed some acidity in the dressing. Chicken saltimbocca was OK but very sweet. Nearby places were closed so we ordered dessert. Tiramisu wasn't very good and peach cake was dry but probably also tainted by the experience. They comped the dessert after we ordered. Bill was over $300 for a crappy experience. Wouldn't recommend. We were here 15 years ago and it was really good and we were looking forward to returning - we live 1600 miles away so it kinda was a big deal to return here over La Becasse. Oh well.
