My hubby and I were out driving around to see the fall colors and decided to stop in for a drink. Mt Shasta is a really neat restaurant with a small little bar. I love the decor and the faint music in the background. We had the spicy whitefish bites appetizer. Wow, delicious! The perfect breading, fresh light fish, with a spicy dipping sauce. We wanted to order a second helping! This is a nicer sit down restaurant. They were busy for a Saturday afternoon. All the food leaving the kitchen looked good. If we had more time, we would have stayed for lunch. Super friendly servers. I hope to be back in the area and have a full meal. read more

So much history! Love that Mt Shasta captures it throughout the restaurant. We came here for a family dinner. We made reservations in advance to accommodate 25 individuals. We had 1/2 the restaurant! Drinks were good. Love the ambiance. Checker table clothes and fresh flowers. I ordered the Michigamme smashburger. Great burger. Not a typical smashburger with the patties being thin, but that's okay. The burger was great. My husband got the Saturday night prime rib special. Meat was cooked perfectly. The tempura asparagus looked more like asparagus, which I guess isn't too bad. It's healthier. We had a great time. read more

The burger was cooked perfectly! Portions were more than pleasing. Fresh salad bar with delicious soup. Super sweet waitress. 10/10 recommended. read more

Mt Shasta - Mushroom Swiss burger with fries. - New American Near Me - Michigamme, Michigan

What an experience! We walked in and it was like stepping back in time. I loved all the wood and the big fireplace. It was also pretty cool knowing it was in the movie "Anatomy of a Murder." I loved looking at the old photos on the wall from the film. We went on a Saturday for lunch and our server was wonderful! She was so pleasant and knowledgeable and I can't say enough how great she was. Then the food. I ordered a Mushroom & Swiss burger with Sweet Potato Fries and honestly it was one of the best, if not the best, burger I've ever had! Same with the fries, amazing! We decided to do dessert and it was so decadent and delicious! We had the Carrot Cake and the Mudslide Pie. Very highly recommended! We loved it! read more

Been going to Mt. Shasta since waaaay back. Never disappointed in the food, always delicious and the old interior and history can't be beat. On our last visit the 3 of us ordered the Mt Shasta smash burger....very, very good, done to perfection and quite the large burger with ample fries. Nice selection of draft beers too. So why not 5 stars? Sat at the bar and our server/bartender was either having a bad day or just not the most personable fella. We even saw a couple walk out due to his lack of attentiveness, pretty sad. But he won't keep us from going back. read more

Been here twice. Prime rib first time. Jimmy Stewart pork chop second visit. Both meals were very good and our servers were great! Like the salad bar. If you are looking for some history, good food and nice atmosphere this is the place. Well worth the drive from Marquette, Gwinn, or even Houghton. read more

Great food, friendly and efficient staff. Very cute place with lots of photos from a movie that was shot in the area. Jimmy Stewart dined here. read more

Awesome rustic atmosphere, great Friday fish fry. Friendly service all adds up to a great place to have dinner. Sit by the warm fireplace, enjoy the salad and soup bar. Reasonable prices makes it a place to stop in and look at photos of the film Anatomy of a Murder that was filmed there many many years ago. I'll be back for sure. Makes a nice drive from Marquette or right of the snow mobile trail. read more

Stopped in after hiking so friends and I were a bit sweaty - Had fish sandwich with sweet potato fries. Sandwich was a bit over cooked so were the fries but I do like my fries crunchy and were perfect! Warming atmosphere Friend had - Salad bar was good - (needs carrots) tomato soup was delicious. read more

Delicious fresh food. Excellent service. Love the historical memories and ambiance. Brings back good memories and happy to have real fresh food. read more

Lovely updates on this little hidden gem. The patio is TOP NOTCH! It also has a stage for music. We were in Michigamee visiting family over the 4th of July. We stopped on Saturday early afternoon and the place was almost dead. The weather was perfect, the whitefish app was great, the ppl were so friendly. We cannot figure out why it was so dead. There were visitors from all over occupying almost every cabin on the lake. They have a perfect location and great restaurant, just need help with the marketing and bringing people in. Suggestion- have a band or 1-2 man acoustic singer Sat and Sun afternoons, maybe some Friday nights. The stage outside is perfect! In winter you could still have a single acoustic singer indoors. Fourth of July weekend, they" place could have been packed. Good luck, we loved it! See you next time on our way through!! read more

Popped in for lunch, excited to find out they have a salad bar with homemade, delicious soup! Went with the hamburger and fries, excellent. They would've knocked it out of the park with fresh cut or steak fries! Very cool inside with some interesting history. See you soon. read more

I bought a camp near this establishment and have been a few times Prefer cooking at home read more

I absolutely love this place. It has very good food! Honestly I will come here again someday. Thanks for reading my review, have a great day! read more

It's a nice restaurant with potential, but with prices being so high and the food looking the way it did and tasting even worse, we were overly disappointed. read more

Mt Shasta - Poutine! Honestly, even the waiter agreed it didn't look right. The cheese curds were ice cold. - New American Near Me - Michigamme, Michigan

Been here a few times and they don't seem very busy but good in between place to stop on the way to either Marquette or houghton. Staff is friendly and attentive price is decent food depending on what you get. If you get wings there is NOT much choice in sauces as they tell you their NOT a wing place as they portray as fine dining it really depends on what you get but the prime rib is the bomb as in good, not like Ruth Chris but good for the area as it's better than most choices in the area you'll have. Out of 3 visits the 3rd time was best so what ever changes they made their improving! read more

Really cool restaurant and decor! Server was friendly and helpful. It's a good break on the way to Mackinaw. Food was perfect and thanks for having us! read more

Mt Shasta - New American Near Me - Michigamme, Michigan

We stopped there less than a yr ago and to get service was slow we stopped there on 7 24 23 and the service was worst. There we two customers sitting at the bar and three other couples sitting at various tables. One couple was served the other two waiting for their meals. We were sat down at a table and proceeded to wait to give a drink order and to receive menu's. We sat there 25 minutes and received neither as employees just kept walking by us. At the 30 minute mark we got up a left. I can see having a wait when busy but in this case again not that busy to have customers wait that long and never given a menu. read more

I heard about Mt Shasta reopening with new owners and just had to stop in. Its been over 10 years since I ate there, and I was completely blown away with our whole dining experience. First, walking in the door, table settings were of a fine dining restaurant, everything was clean, and wait staff warmly welcomed us in. We sat at the bar and were immediately greeted by front of the house manager and bartender Rob. Through the whole service he was extremely personable and professional. Wait staff was dressed in black with ties on. Our food came out looking amazing. I ordered the BLT, something so simple and it was absolutely delicious. The garlic aioli in place of mayonnaise was so delicious. The waffle fries were close to perfect too. As we're eating, Rob brings out a plate of their tempura asparagus that I was talking about ordering but didn't. He said he really wanted me to try them! I couldn't believe he did that. (They were spectacular by the way!!) Then he brings out ANOTHER plate of their house made cole slaw which was so unique and tasty as well!! Rob talked with us for most of our meal about the renovations and the reopening. Then the owner came and talked to us too! And as we got our bill Rob said drinks were on him as the cherry on top. They had extensive wine lists and tons of local beer on tap. Their last fish fry this past Friday was a huge hit too they said. I will certainly be back and telling everyone I know to stop in as well. You will not be disappointed!!! read more

We found this gem from Trail 8 snowmobiling. We stopped in for a beverage and break. Very charming and pleasant. We came back the next day for breakfast. It did not disappoint. Great Northern vibe. I'd come back again the next time we are up here vacationing. read more

Wow! So excited to have Mt. Shasta open again! But even more excited for what it has to offer - some great upscale choices for good prices. We are so thankful that we have this close by and don't always have to trek to Marquette. They are open for lunch AND dinner and the menu is absolutely wonderful! And the special fish fry menu on Fridays has a variety of options. Good food, good cocktails and beer choices, and great service! We will be back FOR SURE! read more

Sorry to say, it appears the Shasta isn't doing business as a restaurant/bar these days. Whenever I was in the Three Lakes area, my family would enjoy dining at this famous local spot. Nice folks. Okay food. Cold beer. And the WIFI was free. Hope to see it reopen the next time I'm visiting. read more

Mt Shasta - I drove by on June 7 around 6 pm. The sign said "open for rummage sale," but I must have been late. They weren't open. - New American Near Me - Michigamme, Michigan

We are travelers & foodies & our favorite restaurant is right in our back door. Meals are all 5 star and a shout~out to Rachel, while not being a bartender, knocks our request for a rusty nail out of the park. read more

The fam and I stopped by for breakfast. Good, quick service with tasty food. Could have used a bit more hash browns but that's getting nit picky. I really love that this place is back open and spruced up a bit. Hopefully we'll get to stop back again and enjoy the outdoor seating! read more

Stopped in for the Friday Night Fish. Food was great. We had the white fish and trout grilled, with a side of white fish chowder. Once again food was awesome, flavorful fish. Downfall was the service. We had to wait 15 minutes before we saw our waiter, and then when we got our food our order was wrong. It seemed as if the other servers were more attentive, so I think we just got the fluke of the bunch. Overall would try again but hope for a better server. read more

We have visited twice since Mt. Shasta reopened. Once on a Saturday and once on a Sunday. While the food was pretty good, the service leaves a lot to be desired and needs to improve before everyone gives up looking for a good experience. It is not clear whether lack of training is the problem, or that every server has a don't care attitude. On our first visit, a Saturday, we were served by a teenage girl with a very dull expression and complete lack of personality. We had to ask if we could order drinks before ordering our meal. We then ordered an appetizer, and then a main course, both of which came out within minutes of each other, so we were juggling them on the table. I ordered a prime rib, rare, which was grey on the surface. So I assume it was frozen and not carved, but it tasted good and my wife's fish was very good. The server never came back to check whether our meal was ok, and never refilled our drinks or water glasses, and we had to ask for our check. On our second visit, this Sunday, we were seated by another teenage girl who did not smile. She pointed at a table, cleared off the excess table settings, dropped off menus, filled water glasses, and never came back. She then seemed to spend the rest of the time wandering around the restaurant moving water glasses from one table to another. Two other teenage girls were wandering around apparently doing nothing. At the same time, an older lady with red hair was grumpily dealing with the four seated tables in a disorganized manner, and apparently working behind the bar. We looked at the menu and both selected fish main courses along with the fish appetizer. When the older red-haired server came to the table, she did not introduce herself or ask if we would like to order drinks. She just said "What do you want to order?" We asked if we could order fish bites, and then our fish main courses. "We don't have any fish!" was her response. This was a surprise at a restaurant with a menu that is 50% fish, and a bigger surprise that no one mentioned this when we were seated. No alternatives were offered, such as chicken instead of fish on the salad. So we had to scramble and selected burgers. I ordered mine with fries and my wife swapped fries for the "Garden Vegetable" soup, which turned out to be beef soup. The meals were dropped off at the table and the server left. She never came back to check if our meal was OK. It was OK, but we wanted ketchup for the fries and mustard for the burger. We were able to flag her down and ask if we could have them. She said yes, but then went away, made coffee for another table, played with something behind the bar, and never brought them. Eventually, she came back and asked if we were done. This is a nice location with a nice atmosphere and decent food, but this kind of service really detracts from the experience. We were really excited when Mt. Shasta reopened because it is a nice place to visit on our journey between Houghton and Marquette, but right now I don't feel any desire to return in the near future. read more

Perfect Northwoods vibe. Awesome log cabin with red flannel table clothes and bright windows with ambient light streaming in. Service was prompt and friendly. I wish I could keep raving, except food isn't anything to brag about. All pre prepared, frozen gordons food service ingredients. Lame menu. Has potential though!! read more

Much improved under new management. Been here twice recently. Both times food and service were excellent. Soup on both occasions was tasty and hot. Salad bar was good and may improve to great as summer produce becomes more available. Ribs, burgers and fried shrimp entrees are all excellent. Service was friendly and a big improvement on previous owner's staff. I have no relationship to this business, but live close by and am pleased to have an historic, charming venue with good food just down the road. Actually, am taking friends there tonight. read more

Welcoming atmosphere of "Northern Country" mixed with upscale dining. We were in hiking boots and jeans and felt comfortable cozied up to the large, well-tended fireplace. We ate a late lunch with delicious fish, broasted chicken, and well-appointed salad bar. The salad bar was fresh and included soup. Good local beers on draft. Definitely recommend! read more

The food doesnt warrant 5 stars. Sometimes it can be hit or miss. I'm giving it 5 stars for being a restaurant that has survived 50 plus years in desolate Michigamme Michigan. I'm giving it 5 stars for being one of the coolest looking restaurants you will ever eat inside. It also had scenes from "Anatomy of a Murder" fiimed there. Thats right Jimmy Stewart and Duke Ellington ate there. Thats gotta be worth something. Dont expect to be wowed by the food. Just check it out for the surroundings and the decent food they have there. The fish fry on friday night is very good but the fish hate it! read more

Absolutely fantastic American menu with a strong Lake Superior influence! With the added flare of being part of the movie set from 1959 "Anatomy of a Murder". read more

Came in to celebrate mom and grandma's birthdays all the way from Honolulu . Grew up vacationing at parents summer place on the lake. Friday night fish fry is a must every time. This time grilled trout was excellent. Unfortunately felt somewhat rushed. We were sat at what felt like a table on the surface of the sun, as it was very warm even with shades closed. Rest of the side dishes were average. Salad bar was a really bad rendition of an all you can eat yuck fest. Server, though busy never once cleared a plate or empty glass, which had filled table because there were six of us. I would have given less stars where it not for the great tasting fish. Will continue to go to Mount shasta on annual trips to the U.P. only because of tradition. read more

This hidden gem has some great food. The whitefish cakes were very tasty, the coleslaw was some of the best I've had, and the filet on the blackened whitefish sandwich was nice and crispy. Definitely come here if you're passing by on M41 read more
