    Phenomenal, phenomenal X 1000. This is truly the mornings fresh catch not one or two day old fish…read moreit's that morning catch. First day I got there the Owner, true gentleman, was already out of whitefish he told me to try again the next day. The second day I was in luck and got 10 nice sized deep fried chunks a fresh whitefish. The taste, freshness, light batter homemade tartar sauce is out of bounds. The owner and his son working tirelessly to provide for their customers and I will go out of my way to support this business. Don't be deceived when you drive by, stop in you will be 100% satisfied I guarantee it. I wish I would have snapped a picture of this fish but wife and I devoured it. PHENOMENAL!!!! Can't wait to go back. I've had plenty of whitefish in the Upper Peninsula nothing remotely comes close to this and such reasonably priced.

    Make a special stop here, even if it's out of your way, after 11:30am and check their Facebook page…read morebeforehand for updates They are very very good about giving daily updates re: when the fish is coming in and what they have CASH ONLY Get a whitefish basket or sandwich- they're amazing at the very light coating (everyone else from here to Paradise will fry the hell out of it with a half inch of coating) This is the best place to eat fish in (they have a few tables in front- order at the counter in back) We also bought some smoked fish which was fantastic also Check fridge for fish sausage or ask when they'll have it Very nice people

    Excellent ambience on a summer eve. Wonderful service. Solid 5 on the above…read more However, it's all about the food. Our baskets were nothing special. Onion rings were not hot( maybe the warmer isn't working well? Walleye had an oily feel and taste though the fish was very good. Coleslaw was fine; nothing special. Should have gone with the salad entrees which looked good. We would return and try something else. The view is worth the trip

    A Hidden Gem on Big Bay de Noc!…read more We visited The Dock at Bay Ridge on a sunny Thursday in late July during our trip from Philadelphia -- and what a memorable find! This rustic log cabin restaurant with cozy lodge vibes and an unbeatable view of Big Bay de Noc completely won us over. As a food-loving family, we were blown away by the quality. I had the bacon cheeseburger, and it was perfection -- juicy, cooked exactly right, with a soft, buttery bun that took it to the next level. My wife and daughter split the cheese flatbread pizza, which was generous, gooey, and had that magic balance of soft center and crisp edges. We started with pretzel bites that were warm, soft, and chewy -- everything you want in a comfort appetizer -- paired with creamy, rich beer cheese. For drinks, a perfectly chilled Blue Moon hit the spot while our daughter loved her sweet lemonade. The service deserves a review of its own: some of the friendliest staff we've met on our travels. Our waitress was prompt, sweet, and genuinely attentive from start to finish. We sat on the patio with an amazing view of the water -- peaceful, scenic, and the perfect setting for a relaxing evening. We're already talking about coming back on our next visit to the UP. Highly recommend stopping here if you're anywhere near Garden, MI!
