    Hello veg and blacked cod.
    Christina G.

    Okay Whitey's! Tonight we stopped in for a late dinner and we were pleasantly pleased! This was our first time at Whitey's how did we never know about this classic gem! Two in the party had top sirloin and I had the blacked cod in butter sauce! Everyone really enjoyed the meal. We loved the salad bar and also got fired calamari. Man I LOVE a good salad bar and this one doesn't disappoint! All the things, cheese, bacon bits, pea peanut salad, cottage cheese it was so good and I could have made my whole meal out of it! Steak eaters loved baked potatoes and the mushrooms and onions added. Menu has so many choices seafood, steak, sandwiches. Really a nice selection. Mini loaf of bread was also enjoyed. Service was excellent decor is slightly dated inside but come on it's great. Classic dinner out. We really lived our meal and the supper club feel of Whitey's.

    A 70 year old gem ! Old school place - clean, really good service.wow - don't find many soup, salad bars anymore. Cheese burger soup- tasted great. Everything u can imagine on the salad bar - very fresh. THEN. The menu items-. Shared a walleye & shrimp dinner. Generous portions- plus tasted great. Loaf of homemade bread - served with whipped butter . Think I will try here again!

    Nothing less than 5 stars. This place is great, awesome, outstanding, fantastic, delicious, call it whatever you want. It's great. Only my second time here and I'm make it a point to visit here whenever I'm in the area. They have two salad bars that is also very very very very good. One is traditional salad bar with all the toppings you want and the other is like a pasta salad bar with potato salad, pasta salad, noodles, pea salad (this pea salad is delicious), macaroni salad, and coleslaw. This place has hands down the best seafood in the Metro Detroit area. They have so many options I don't have time to go over it all but since I'm on a roll here I can promise you won't be disappointed. The atmosphere is chill too which is what I like. In photos that I post you'll see what I ordered and again it was awesome. Enjoy!

    Salad bar is amazing

    Alina provided superb service to our family group, patiently waited for our decisions around food and drink. Nautical theme of course, so aye matey! My family is very shy so no pictures of them.

    The two pieces of fish with a size McDonald's chicken nugget

    Great service. My two pieces of fish were about the size of McDonald's, chicken nuggets for $21.00

    On a trip to Davison, Michigan, with friends, we opted for dinner at Whitey's--a spot we've visited before and a longtime go-to for seafood and its salad bar. It didn't disappoint. The shrimp, fish, and clams were all delicious, and I went for the signature fried cod, which was thick, juicy, and full of flavor. The salad bar had a great selection but the plates were much smaller than they had been in the past and there was no soup after 3:00. Our group of four was seated quickly upon arrival, and our waitress was on point, answering our questions and keeping our drinks topped off. The place was clean, though it felt a little old-school in terms of decor. We'll definitely return.

    Espresso Martini

    Love Whiteys. AYCE salad bar is great! On my most recent visit I tried their espresso martini. Not my kind of drink at all, but thought I'd try it for an energy boost. It was fantastic. My husband got one after he tried mine. If Monica is working the bar have her make you one. You'll love it!

    Fish tacos

    I am in the area a few times a year and always try to make it a point to stop and order takeout. The fish tacos have become a favorite and while I love their other dishes this has become a go to. Service is always quick and friendly. I also love the convenience of the drive through but the tacos they make in the restaurant so it takes a little bit longer.

    Had low expectations, having never heard of this place prior to my visit to Canada. What a nice…read moresurprise! Delicious fish and chips... the Monday haddock special was great!

    I love fish 'n' chips. I've eaten this all my life and I can name the places that have done a…read moresuperb job making fish 'n' chips (one place I have in mind was so popular among the locals, a line would form on Friday evening). I've travelled quite a bit to Sarnia on business. I've heard from local colleagues that I should try Halibut House Fish and Chips. What drew me was the fact that they served haddock as one of the fish, and I have had fond memories of haddock fish fry. My colleague and I went there the other night and we really enjoyed our dinners. Both of us tried the haddock (and I also tried the cod which was also excellent). I loved the accompanying cole slaw which was not mayonnaise based, but vinegar based. The fish was a very large portion. It was not greasy (because they fried it at a high temperature), and it was flavorful. Lots of other places don't pay much attention to frequent change out of their fryer oils which take on a bitter taste and will be imparted to the food. That's because the structure of oil has changed from their use. This was not an issue at Halibut House. I didn't notice any after-taste. My compliments to the crew for paying attention to these details. The batter was very light and it complemented the fish, which was very fresh. As the frequency of my travel there is increasing, they can count on my future visits.
