    the menu for the restaurant
    Laura B.

    We always want to try hometown restaurants to enjoy where the locals may enjoy. This place didn't disappoint. I asked what was good and our server offered up the side of hash browns that consisted of peppers, onions, jalapeños and cheese. The restaurant had all sorts of Knickknacks on the walls to keep you well entertained while waiting for your food. We took the last table available and noticed that tables didn't sit idle for long. The atmosphere was very welcoming and warm. You could tell it was popular with repeat visitors. I know we will return on a future trip. Thank you for a great meal.

    Quincy's must be doing something right...it was busy. I wish we had left when we saw a sign on the…read moredoor that indicated they were hiring servers, cooks, and bartenders. Waiter was very friendly. When my French onion soup arrived, we still had no silverware or napkins. Waiter was quick to respond, but the silverware never showed up. Finally, I went to him and asked again. Not good, but not a dining experience buster. The French onion soup was better than decent. So hot, I had to let it cool...a good thing. I ordered the whitefish almondine...disaster. The crust was horrible and I was able to scrape it off, but still terrible. The almondine part; just sprinkled some almond slivers on the fish after it was cooked. I now kick myself for not sending it back. The side of vegetables were terrible; undercooked and barely warm. I wonder if they were from a can? I should have sent the fish back and offered to pay for the soup. My mistake. My wife had the tacos. Not a good choice in the Michigan Upper Peninsula. She ate one of them and brought the other home, which likely will go uneaten. I dont like bashing a restaurant on Yelp, but this whole meal was a disaster. However, the place was busy and loud. Worst meal in the UP. Worst meal elsewhere in a long time. I do not recommend.

    Stopped in for a quick bite. Fast service. Sat at the bar, friendly server. Good was tasty.read more

    A Copper Harbor Treasure -- Harbor Haus is Pure Magic…read more Harbor Haus is truly one of the most special restaurants we've ever been to. The food is absolutely incredible -- every dish is crafted with so much care and flavor that it keeps us coming back again and again. But what makes Harbor Haus unforgettable is the people. Lisa and George are two of the sweetest, most welcoming humans you'll ever meet. From the moment you walk in, they make you feel like you're part of their family. The entire staff is just as wonderful -- warm, attentive, and genuinely happy to see you. There's a feeling here that you simply can't find anywhere else. We love coming to see them, and we love everything about this place. Harbor Haus is the heart of Copper Harbor, and we hope it never leaves. It's a gem, a tradition, and a home away from home. If you're anywhere near Copper Harbor, do yourself a favor and go. You'll be treated like family, fed like royalty, and you'll leave already planning your next visit. A huge Thank you to Amazing Chef Dan!! Victoria Waliczek & Dan Miller

He made several recommendations, including Portside. It was excellent. Food and service were excellent. We are a product of the South and dont have much whitefish and walleye available. I had the walleye sticks appetizer with an order of fries and my wife had the whitefish cakes. Both were delicious. Fries were obviously hand-cut and large; also very hot. Our server was great! The best part of the meal was the BREAD STICKS! It appeared that the sticks are baked in a round pattern, like a pizza, and then cut into sticks. They were so hot, I couldn't hold them until they cooled a little bit. The accompanying spread was excellent; also marinara sauce. One could make a meal from the bread sticks. The vibe was pleasantly rustic. We decided on a booth instead of seats at the bar. Again, our server was great. The guy who brought out the bread sticks was equally good. I suppose the bread sticks are brought to the table directly from the oven. Highly recommend this place!

We rarely sit outside but this patio beckoned and we were helpless to resist. There's even outdoor seating available if you arrive before the restaurant is open! Silas brought us menus and took drink orders right away. We enjoyed the season's first shandies while exploring the menu. His attention was perfect and we shared some laughs each time he returned to our table. Neither one of us wanted to share (I guess) so we each ordered our own appetizers. I can never get enough smoked whitefish spread... until it's ALL MINE! I enjoyed every bite and would do it again. Patrick ordered the walleye strips and he did offer me a bite (generous devil that he is). They were perfectly crisp without being heavy or greasy. If I had known that... nah, I'd still get the whitefish. We'll be back to visit The Portside and try more menu items. Who knows, maybe we'll split something next time?
