    I had no idea... this place is sooooo good. Hubby got the double; I got the single with the olive burger mix topping. Wayne (the owner) took some time to perfect this to get it just right before he put it on the menu. And the fries? Hand cut and fresh! A most generous serving. If you are in the area, make it a meal stop. If you're not in the area, take a road trip. You'll be glad you did!

    Delish local food, a real community feel, and a genuine nice guy as the owner. I had a burger with jalapeños, bacon, grilled onions, lettuce, mayo, and it was soooo juicy and flavorful. The meat comes from his brother's farm. And the poutine.... YUM! We've decided this will be a tradition whenever we come to the UP. NGL, I'd cross the Mackinac bridge for this burger!!!!

    So before we go on vacation we usually look all along the whole route and see what's out there, what's coming up, as far as gift shops, restaurants, beaches roadside parks or anything like that. We saw "Moofinfries" on the route and it looked interesting so we decided to try this on our way home from vacation. It is a small little restaurant and I didn't understand the name until I figured it out, they sell burgers, fish and fries so the burgers are "Moooo" the fish have "fins" and then they also make Poutine Fries. At least that's how I think the name came along, that's just my opinion. So I ordered a 4 piece white fish and a small order of Poutine Fries. They have a small picnic table outside for those who want to sit outside and eat and we'll, why not it was a nice day out, they also sell some of their own merchandise like hats, shirts and hoodies. I also bought a hat cause I love hats. They also told us that all the fries are cut fresh to order and the fish is caught daily from the local lake which is really amazing! So I had the Poutine fries first and I will say this is the BEST poutine I have EVER eaten, everything just tastes as fresh as they said it was, the gravy was thick, it had a great seasoning and was just all out amazing. Now let's talk about this whitefish, I have had white fish before, in fact, I have had it at some expensive restaurants but what they brought out was better than any white fish I have had at any other place, the batter was nice and crispy, it wasn't super oily like most batter usually is, the fish was VERY delicious, it didn't have a fishy taste or texture at all. it literally broke apart when you cut it with your fork and then the tartar sauce to dip it in was really good. Everything at this restaurant from the fries to the fish and even the restrooms, which were immaculately clean, was just perfect. This is a place we will stop EVERYTIME we go on vacation and I think anyone that is ever driving down the U.S. 2 in the Upper Peninsula needs to stop here and give this place a try because you WILL NOT regret it.

    Always mind blowing! Service is SO kind, food is as well. We are so lucky to have this place!

    We just had delicious burgers, poutine and shakes here. What a good choice this was for lunch! The restaurant was sparkling clean and welcoming. The food was wonderful. The poutine was made with a rich beef gravy and we really enjoyed it. You order your food at the counter and then can choose your seat at one of the gorgeous wood tables. The food was brought to us promptly. Every staff member we spoke with was courteous and very friendly. We will definitely be returning.

    Going to the UP with my family we had a lot of recommendations, but all the guys my husband works with, unanimously said this burger place is a must. We planned accordingly. This place is 40min going west from the bridge. If we weren't specifically looking for it, we would have never stopped there. While it's cute, it's not a place that commandeers attention driving by. Walking in, it's decor is like a cabin, tables are lacquered picnic tables. You order at the counter and sit down to wait for your food to be brought out. Any misgivings I may have had, were gone with the first bite. This burger made me want to wax poetic and I'm not a poet, nor that big of a burger lover. The burger was juicy, flavorful, and at least for me, didn't even need any condiments. Fries were good but not spectacular. Everyone agreed though that it was hands down the best burgers we've ever had in a restaurant. So goid in fact that we made it a point to stop by again on the way back. Since Moofinfries only makes burgers, fries, and fried white fish (hence the name), I had to try the fish too. The burgers were just as good as the first time. The fish was flaky and cooked to perfection. The family was split on how much they liked the fish. 2 votes good, 2 votes ok. Fish is a tricky thing especially with kids. I'd still say to try it if you're a fan. Definitely recommend this spot. The views of Michigan Lake on the drive are amazing as well! P.S. The first stop I forgot to take a picture of any of the food because we were hungry and it was too good. I almost forgot the second time too, but tore myself away after the first couple bites to capture the deliciousness.

    Great little spot to grab lunch or dinner. Hamburger was tasty. Whitefish was fresh and delicious. Too many fries- ;-) - ooops - never too many fries. Worth the stop.

    Best Burger ever even upside down ‍

    So I decide to back up and review the food first. I ordered the SINGLE CHEESE BURGER w/ ketchup mustard lettuce tomato mayonnaise onion and I am going to say BEST BURGER I'VE EVER HAD. I've eaten a lot of burgers in my 58 years and this one stands out above the rest. I don't know why. It was just great. I also had poutine. I've never had it before so I had to try it. It was very good also. The fries I it and the gravy and cheese was delicious. My wife had 3 piece white fish. It too was fantastic. The owner told us everything is locally sourced the beef is from his brother farm the fish is from Lake Superior. I also had a Malt on the way out. It was very good also but. It didn't stand out like the burger and fish did. DEFINITELY STOP BY THIS PLACE IT IS GREAT FOOD. I had forgotten about this place or never thought I'd be near it, but as we were on our way to Manistique, Michigan my wife suggested it. So we stopped. It was Not what I expected at all. First when we walked in it looked very minimal picnic tables to the right and a counter to the left where you order. By the way the picnic tables are in the top 2 nicest I've ever seen. The owner said he made them. The owner came over twice to talk to us, once before we got our food and a second time while we were eating. He is super personable and seems like a real nice guy. So not to disappoint Brian if he still reads my Yelps. The napkins they give you with your were outstanding and they had others in the table in a holder that I didn't try but looked a little less sturdy. They also had Salt, Pepper, Hot Sauce, and Malt Vinegar on the table. Overall this was a great surprise and a great experience. I definitely want to stop again and will when in the area. You should too.

    A single burger.

    Stopped in for lunch on a whim and we were all highly impressed…read more The smoked whitefish spread was more like a whitefish salad, which I LOVED. Piled it on bread the next day and was very happy. Smoked whitefish chowder was homemade with love and care and I would drink this by the gallon. Whitefish and walleye baskets were to die for. And the whitefish sandwich was as amazing as you'd expect. Bonus: the fries that came with the sandwich and baskets were also utterly delicious. Cannot say enough good things about this place. I will definitely make this a regular stop coming in and out of the UP and plan better so that I can take more home from here next time.

While we found this to be a charming local fish and specialty market, we were unfortunately underwhelmed by the food. Most of us ordered the 2-piece whitefish basket with fries. The fish itself seemed fresh, but the batter lacked seasoning and could have been much crispier. The fries were also fairly soggy. We also tried the whitefish chowder, which desperately needed salt. Adding a bit ourselves made a huge difference in flavor. We arrived well before the lunch rush and practically had the place to ourselves, so perhaps this was just an off day. Still, the fish baskets felt severely under-fried and lacking overall flavor, which was disappointing given the local reputation and specialty focus.

We didn't have reservations, so picked up a buzzer from the hostess and joined the crowd waiting in the gift shop or lounging around at the entrance. Our wait was about a half hour, and we were seated in a rear dining room that should receive a Gold Medal for Eclectic Design. Our table was covered in laminated Detroit Tiger baseball cards, and the walls were plastered with beer company paraphernalia and Detroit sports memorabilia. Our server Aimy brought our meal -a Cheeseburger Platter ($11.99), and for me a cup of Clam Chowder ($4.49) and Shrimp Steamers ($14.99). My meal was excellent, the chowder was served piping hot and was loaded with chopped clams and potatoes. And man, oh man, were the shrimps great. They were a half pound served shell-on "Caribbean style" with lemon and cocktail sauce. Yes, they were messy to eat but were so worth the mess. Aimy helped me out with a few wet naps. We had an excellent experience here.

The waitress, while friendly enough, did not have a good grasp of the English language. And all for just under $50. This place is definitely not depending on repeat business. Compared to this,place, Long John Silvers is 5 star dining. Walked away hungry and $50 lighter. I won't be back.
