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.

Can't go wrong with this place! The service was wonderful and my table overlooking the lake was a dream. My only regret is that I am only in town for one night, otherwise I'd be eating there again.

If you're expecting a quick lunch, here is not the place. If you want great food and freshly made biscuits, or a place to sit and visit with an old friend pull up a chair and enjoy the ambiance. The cook makes everything from scratch to order. I browsed the menu while enjoying my fresh brewed coffee. In the mood for some comfort food, I chose the Mac&Cheese with smoked brisket. The meal included coleslaw and a hot biscuit. 40 minutes later I had a large plate of hot creamy Mac&Cheese topped with a pile of brisket. The pasta was penned cooked al dented, whick is how I like it. Most places serve overcooked mushy pasta. The cheese sauce was creamy and packed with flavor. The brisket was nicely smoked and perfectly seasoned. The coleslaw was rough chopped and made with a creamy dressing. It was not too sweet and didn't distract from the main dish. The biscuit, this namesake, was probably the best biscuit I've ever had. Warm and obviously right out of the oven, it was moist and flakey. The butter just melted right in. There was more than I could finish. I took the rest in a box and enjoyed it again for dinner.

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?
