My family and I are visiting Marquette, Michigan and were looking for ribs. We found Lake Superior…read moreSmokehouse and decided to try it. We walked in and the restaurant staff cheerfully greeted us. My daughter and grandson said we'd like to order to go. The inside was rustic and nicely decorated. There is outside seating in the back that looked pleasant with beautiful plants. The bar area was welcoming and the dining room area was beautiful and clean. The bathroom was clean and quaint. After my daughter explained to the young man behind the counter what we're looking for, he went into the kitchen and came out with ribs samples... wow, we didn't expect that. He said that his father owned the restaurant and their ribs won in a competition for best ribs in Michigan some years ago. Needless to say it was absolutely delicious! The sauces were so delicious and the ribs smoky and tender. We got the ribs, pulled pork and sausage, with Smoky Mac and Cheese, and vegetables. I would certainly love to eat here the next time we're here.

When we walked in, the entire room got quiet and everyone stared at us until we all sat down -- like they'd never seen a same-sex, biracial family of six before. The crowd was mostly white. On the plus side, our server was quick to greet us, and was nice and pretty direct. The food was a mixed bag. The pulled pork had an odd lemon taste to it. The chicken club was more bread than chicken, drowning in mayo. The fish and chips and the ribs, on the other hand, came out great and really hit the mark. My steak, though, came out well done instead of medium rare and dried out, so I had to pour steak sauce on it just to get through it. On top of that, the bathrooms weren't clean, and the A/C vents were dripping from the ceiling, some right near and even onto the tables. Overall, the food was okay, nothing special, and we found the prices pretty high for what we got. This feels more like a locals' spot than a place for out-of-town guests or tourists like us.

There was a massive tour bus and about 30 people in front of our order and it came out in about 15min. Food was good. I have the up burger and it was tasty but nothing special.

The food is amazing, but pricey…read more This was a random dinner choice as we were struggling to decide food, and they won on account of meatballs. And it was worth it. Located inside the Roam Inn, we were treated to a chill covers playlist, good drinks, and good food. Our server was on it - she was juggling several tables but she made it look effortless. The meatball is not spicy - just a perfect blend and flavor. The pierogis were also so good. I opted for the burger and truffle fries - the burger was perfect, but SO MANY FRIES. She opted for the white fish, which she enjoyed (I didn't even get a bite!) All in all - it's a great stop if you're wanting to be in a nice dining environment for your evening.

The home base for Rollin Smoke is the Barge Inn, Musining MI. The Barge is a great bar with a big,…read morelush beer garden (it's actually a garden!). The way it works is you order from Rollin Smoke at their counter, then walk 25 ft to the Barge and get a beer and have a seat, inside or outside. The people at Rollin Smoke will bring your food to you, wherever you are. We visited The Barge/Rollin Smoke twice and loved the experience. (You may look for my earlier review of The Barge Inn). I am an experienced cooker and eater of BBQ; I know good stuff when I taste it. Their beef brisket and pulled pork were excellent. Home made cole slaw was a nice side. This BBQ joint has everything: great food, modest prices, pleasant people and a full bar next door. I spose the only downside is that the boss closes down every evening at 7pm. Don't be late !

July 2017: Tried their version of pulled pork (Potbelly) at Art on The Rocks in Marquette and was…read morepleasantly surprised! The sauce was Carolina style with vinegar and mustard and was very tasty. The portion was very good for $8 when compared to Wild Blue which I feel is overpriced for their portions. I may have to give their brisket a second try next time I see this food truck. Rollin Smoke pulled pork rates a 4 but their brisket was a 2 so they get an average of 3.

The coffee was decent, not mind-blowing, but it did the job. The mocha was a nice treat, though! The real highlight of this place was the staff. The baristas were super friendly, making the experience feel warm and welcoming. It's clear they enjoy what they do, and it shows in their service. While the food was solid, I'd say the bathroom could use a little more attention. It wasn't as clean as I'd hoped, but it didn't ruin the vibe of the place. One of the coolest things about Fall Rock Cake is the bookstore aspect. You can browse through a variety of books while enjoying your coffee or meal. It's the perfect spot to unwind, especially if you're a book lover! Overall, great atmosphere, friendly service, and a good place to relax and grab a bite.

If you are near the area, don't miss this place. What a great restaurant/bar. Cool old building…read more(check out the tin ceiling), staff was as friendly as could be (shout out to Regan and Sarah). The atmosphere makes you feel like you are at home. Well stocked bar with classic beers as well as a number of delicious local favorites (and cider). The food is outstanding. Unexpectedly so. We happened to come in on Saturday to find they had smoked meat that day. I had the BBQ pork sandwich - tender and great smokey flavor. It came with a notably good creamy cole slaw, and I got beer batter fries. OMG, who invented this amazing side? Great crispy, crunchy outside, and delicious tender potato inside. Tasty, hearty meal and drinks at a reasonable price. Do yourself a favor and go.

I started coming here when I was 17 because camp was in Kiva. Owners are really nice, bar is clean, little old, but what else would you expect, its frickin Trenary.

Sadly the service was so bad we weren't given the opportunity to try the food to taste it…read more This is a review based off of service on June 5th and 7th. We were so looking forward to trying the new hidden gem down the street from our place that we called during our drive up to confirm they were open. The woman who answered the phone was friendly and informative letting me know she would be open until 7pm. We arrived at 6pm, hungry and excited. We left at 6pm, hungry and disappointed. Door was locked, truck parked out back. I can only assume there weren't any signs of life because the customer service was so great it killed them. Next day. We began watching the Belmont coverage and decided to give BBQ in Traunik another chance. Learning a lesson from last time we called ahead. No one answered. It was 6:00 pm and they allegedly close at 8pm on weekends. Good thing we put our money on Tonalist and not Michlache's. Tonalist wins. Michlache's loses. This is our review based off of service on July 2. One more chance. One more time. One more epic fail. Wanting to give them another chance we took a party of 8 out of towers for dinner. We were excited when the open sign was on, door was open, grill smoking ,welcoming us to Texas in the UP, and patrons were aplenty dining inside. The woman behind the counter quickly dismissed us saying they closed 10 minutes prior. Okay, fine, we love a good beer special at Trenary Tavern so no love lost. I stopped to clarify the hours, hopeful we could come back this holiday weekend and the conversation went: Me: What exactly are your hours of operation? Owner: Open until 7 today. 8pm Friday. Me: I called you last month, you told me 7 on a Thursday, we were here well before then, and you were closed, do you close early some times? Owner: No ma'am Me: Okay, well the next day, a Saturday, I called and no one answered. Owner: No ma'am. I never close early. Me: Oh, well maybe you had somewhere to be those evenings because no one was here. Owner: No ma'am. You are mistaken. You don't know what you are talking about. Me: Actually I drove all the way here from Chicago so I know for a fact I tried to come on a Thursday and Saturday last month. Owner: NO MA'AM. YOU ARE NOT TELLING THE TRUTH. That's right. I'm a paying customer who enjoys wasting her time lying about things as simple and petty as what time a BBQ joint is open, In fact, I drove the whole way here from Chicago and bothered to try to eat at your restaurant (which by the way is in a very small and quaint location with a limited population so wow, you're going places) three times and decided to lie about your hours. Most food is made with love. Clearly yours is made with attitude. I don't even like BBQ and I definitely don't like you.

I ordered the chicken and pulled pork., with a side of corn off the cob and cold macaroni salad…read more(also served with Texas toast). The corn was amazing, and had sweet pepper and onion mixed in. I don't normally like cold macaroni salad because most places put way too much mayo in it, but the ratio of ingredients in this one was perfect and just enough sauce to cover the noodles. I need to make a point to mention, that if you do not like smoked meats, or that smokey flavor, order something else on the menu. The chicken was slightly on the dry side, the pork was cooked perfectly and you could see pieces of what once was a smoke line, and after covering the meat with their homemade BBQ sauce, it was all amazing.

Great place for pizza in town…read more We came on a Sunday night just after 6PM and the place was pretty busy (but got even busier after we ordered). You order at the counter and they make it right in front of you (think Chipotle) and pop it in the oven and before you know it - it's ready to eat. They do not serve alcohol, but they said I could BYOB which I gladly did from By George Brewing across the street (very convenient). They have a large patio outside that works great when the weather is nice (which it was this evening). My bride did a BYO ($19) and I did the Buffalo Chicken ($17) and we both really enjoyed the pizza...toppings were fresh and the crust was amazing. Service from the staff was super friendly!

We had actually tried calling ahead to place an order, but no one answered, so we decided to just stop in. Even with how busy they were, our pizza didn't take long at all. The coolest part is watching them make your pizza right in front of you, basically Subway-style, but with pizza. There's both indoor and outdoor seating, plus games to play, which gives the place a really fun, relaxed atmosphere. And most importantly, the pizza tasted really good! If I'm back in the area, I'd definitely stop here again. Definitely worth checking out if you're craving pizza while exploring the UP!
