    Lake Superior White Fish fried to perfection
    Geno P.

    Being a Wisconsinite, and ready for some fried fish any day of the week, I was on this place!! I always order the local fair, and white fish was on the docket. The fish had a very light breading, and that is how I like it!!! Fries were absolutely delicious!! This place is great example of how to fry the local Lake Superior fare. The service is very rudimentary, and basically fast food like. I'm not mad about that!! This is not fine dining, it is dining fine. First time eating white fish, I will say it is dense, yet moist. I would definitely return and order the white fish again. A great institution of the U.P. and bring a cooler!! They have fresh and smoked fish next door. Eat some now, eat some later. I call that a win-win.

    Cheesy risotto, with peas? Yes, it was absolutely fire. Get this.

    I don't even like fish that much, and I'd say this place is purdy fire. My wife was super hyped to try this place, so we went, and man, 10:10. We muffed up and got there like 10-15 mins before they closed. They were super chill about it, I hate being those ppl tho. I've worked restaurants, I know the workers hate it when dummies show up 10 mins before the doors close. I greatly appreciate that they were so accommodating. I got a fish sammich, it was fish tastic. My wife got some sort of baked fish dinner, I dunno, sorry, I wasn't paying attention to her stuff cuz I was in fish sammy heaven. Next day we went back, she got smoked fish. I don't partake in that, but she said the smoked fish is the best she's had in all of Michigan. She's had a LOT of smoked fish in Michigan, so I'd trust her opinion if I were you. Yes, you. Cheesy risotto was low key the extremely over talented back up singer of the show. I saw it on the menu, was extremely confused by it being there, and was thoroughly rewarded for getting it. Eat the fish, look at the mine. Get ur yooper vibes in.

    My favorite seafood ive had that didnt cost $60. For $27 i got the singapore baked fish with risotto, small chowder, and a drink. Was one of the most satisfying meals ive had in a long time. Everything made in house with chef like touches. Absolutely fire.

    This is the place for smoked Lake Superior fish in the Houghton-Hancock area. The smoked lake trout is sublime. So good! Friendly folks too.

    Really really good fish and chips. They were set up great for covid, with one door for entry and one for exit. They have a huge yard for eating outside. The fried whitefish was perfectly cooked, and the fries were delicious as well. I couldn't finish the whole thing, and ended up eating some cold fish leftovers two days later - it was still delicious even after sitting in a fridge for 2 days!

    Great, super fresh whitefish ( the restaurant is actually called Four Suns). Lots of outdoor seating.

Tartar sauce is homemade, more mayonnaise forward, very little pickle. I tasted enough to try it. Didn't eat the coleslaw as I just don't like southern style slaw (yes, I'm from the south). And the chowder with the jalapeno was delicious! I will recommend this place to everyone traveling to this area. I love the restaurant. It's in a trailer with a covered porch.

It was plenty busy for being located on top of a mountain a few miles outside of town. But it was prime leaf peeping time, so I guess there were still a lot of tourists. Unfortunately due to this set up, they are only open from spring until fall (which in the Upper Peninsula might be kind of short!) You order through one window and wait for your number to be called and pick it up at different window. Many types of fish to choose from and it's prepared pretty quick. My wife and I got the same thing, Cod. Which was pretty good, but in hindsight, one of use should have gotten the Whitefish (local) so we could have tried it. Next time? Fries (chips) were good too. Very interesting place. Worth a try!

    The Hut - A Gem in the Keweenaw!…read more The Hut is a very unique experience, and we were thrilled to stumble upon it--especially since dining options in the area are a bit limited. From the moment we walked in, we were struck by the quirky decor that ties into the Keweenaw's mining history. It's charming, memorable, and adds a special local touch you don't often find. My wife was on the hunt for some Lake Superior whitefish, and The Hut *delivered*. She went with the broiled preparation and couldn't stop raving about it--flaky, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. I opted for a patty melt and was equally impressed. The marble rye was perfectly toasted, and the flavors were spot on. Service was decent overall. Our server did forget my tea, which was a minor hiccup, but honestly, it didn't detract much from the experience. The quality of the food and the one-of-a-kind atmosphere more than made up for it. If you're in the Keweenaw and looking for a satisfying meal with some local character, The Hut is definitely worth a stop.

It's been kind of rough finding a place to enjoy food that is fresh and not overpriced. I avoided this restaurant because I don't go out to eat Italian food being Italian. I'm super picky and I make enough Italian food at home that I like to go out and eat things that I don't normally make myself. But a friend of mine wanted to go there so we did and I'm so glad! I walked in and saw the black tablecloths and thought well it's probably gonna be overpriced and like most Italian restaurants I'm not gonna like the food but I will enjoy the company. The menu is filled with so many non-Italian options. Watching the food come out of the kitchen and go to different tables. It was hard because everything looked so good and presented so well. I hadn't had fish tacos in about a year other than the ones I've made at home and mine are not the greatest! Haven't figured out the sauce yet anyway these were unlike anything I've ever tried before, but definitely delicious. I ordered french fries because it came with chips which I thought was kind of weird. It still is kind of an odd option to go with fish tacos, but my girlfriend across the table for me got these homemade chips so much that she had to take them home and they're delicious! French fries were fine. They weren't anything over the top special but they were good dipped in their homemade blue cheese! So good! After everybody got there first entrée, I was so hungry and watching her eat her side salad I ordered one. It's not huge, but it's fresh and it's four dollars! Seriously I couldn't believe how good it was. I love blue cheese and when she told me it was homemade I was skeptical. Definitely delicious. All three of us really enjoyed our food. Our waitress was real attentive. The restaurant was not overly full, but it was busy. The inside is clean and beautiful. I found another gem! There's not many of them here, but this is definitely one of them! Looking forward to my next date night I'm gonna get my hubby to try it. He's gonna love this place.

Spaghetti was good, the ravioli was very tasty, a light flavor of nutmeg in the meat was a pleasant surprise. The roll had a flaky crust, and fresh and soft inside.

Our second visit I ordered the Cudighi sausage sandwich, and again enjoyed the seasonings and bread. I ordered sweet potato fries, they were crisp and tasty. My husband ordered Philly cheese steak sandwich with waffle fries. The sandwich was decent. The waffle fries were crispy, but could have used more seasoning. If you're hungry, this is a good place to eat!
