The one side is a restaurant, but the bar side is so much cooler with neat architecture and decor. It's fairly small inside, but service is always good. I've only ever been there for small bites and a drink or two, but it's always a good time!

Not quite as good as Southern style ribs, but good enough by Upper Michigan standards. The ribs are only $14. The drinks are so cheap. However, the decor and ambiance are so rust belt.

I had hoped for a locally caught Golden fried Whitefish filet unfortunately it was just a standard square fish patty , fries were okay , service was alright , ambiance left a bit to be desired. All in all the experience was a bit of a letdown. I guess I had imagined something a little more Dreamy.

A mix of mostly locals and some campers and boaters (we came by boat and parked at the Dreamland dock). Clean restaurant and bathrooms (always appreciated). We ordered the special: fried chicken with past. My husband loved the combo. The pasta sauce was soooooo goooood. Ordering that as a stand-alone dish would be a winner too. The chicken was fried very nice! The sandwich was one of their famous ones but I don't remember the name. It's the last one on the menu. Our friends love this and always come here for it. I got the whitefish. It was delicate and moist. I was a little bummed that the tartar sauce was not homemade because I bet they'd do a great job at it. Instead it was a premade sauce. Great service. Friendly atmosphere. Nice porch to sit on the rocker after dinner and chill for a bit before heading back to the boat.

Modern and trendy restaurant, especially compared to the other choices in Houghton…read more I sat at the bar and my server was the bartender. She was very friendly and helpful, even though she was kept quite busy mixing drinks for the other diners. I ordered the Jagerschnitzel with a small side salad. The "small" salad was quite large and very fresh. I can't imagine how big the large salad is! My Jagerschnitzel was good. I would say I would have a lighter breading would have made it even better, but I'd still recommend. Tonight was a " Chamber of Congress" type evening in Houghton. I don't imagine 80 degree nights happen a lot way up here! The great weather brought a lot of people out and about enjoying the river walk and downtown. The restaurant had to limit the number of people seated because they must have been at capacity for their staff.

We called this restaurant as it was 10:20, and we wanted to see if they were still taking customers. They told us to come on it. We were seated immediately. They did ask you wear a mask when you first enter. I hears the waitress tell the people behind us that they can only have 6 people max at a table at this time. We ordered once we were seated. My fettucine alfredo was delicious. My husband enjoyed his burger as wel. The server was quick and provided us with our food quiet quickly. I felt bad because he had to deal with 6 loud young teens that did not even order yet. We left at exactly 11pm when they close. The group had just ordered their food. I tend to really hate going in before close because I fee rude. Sadly, we were starving from a 6 hour drive and no service.
