Best KPortal Reviews
Most delicious Fish n Chips ever, daily fresh catch from Lake Superior, Gitche Gumme.
In addition to the whitefish we were lucky to get some trout, a pink meat, richer taste. Lightly deep fried in a delicate peppercorn and lemon batter. They said they are considering going with Avocado oil in the future and also gluten free. The owner friendly and also make the best coleslaw.
Stopped here for my first experience of whitefish. I thought it was fantastic. My cousin (a local Michigander and self-proclaimed whitefish afficiando) thought it was ok. Owner and the two ladies were very nice. Owner had his 16 yr old pooch and told us about his friend that was in Grand Funk Railroad! Its set up in a parking lot. Weather was glorious although quite windy. Slaw was tasty but very small serving.
The fish is great, I mean really great, and in pieces not a fillet. It's breaded in cornmeal instead of a wet batter, really tasty. Staff couldn't be nicer. Sole reason it's not 5 stars is that the fries/chips just fall short, it's like they were just barely dropped in oil, which given how crispy the fish is doesn't make sense, maybe it's a local thing.
My favorite fried white fish around. They fry with cornmeal which makes it so yummy. Very reasonable price $15 for 1/4 pound of fish and fries. Staff very kind. Cash only!
I like the fact that the owner makes the food fresh. There is longer normally a 15-20min wait for your food to be ready and sometimes longer if there are alot of people. The location is not easy to find without google maps as it's on the side behind another building.... essentially the alley. Outdoor seating is available but limited to a first come first serve basis. Most people get the food to go and head to a nearby park to eat. As for the food, I was a little disappointed that the fish was dry, it could have just been my portion. The fries were good. Order the 1/4 lbs, it's plenty of fish.
Stopped there after a 19km hike at Pictured Rock, and boyyy the fish really hit the spot ???? i shared half a pound with my boyfriend and it was enough! Would go back if i'm ever in the area
WOW! Best fried fish I ever had no joke! Falls a part in your mouth and fish Is caught fresh every morning from Lake Superior! Family owned business and a small food shack with outdoor seating! CASH ONLY! Recommend getting the 1/2 pound if your super hungry. Fries were delicious too! 10/10 would recommend you won’t be disappointed.
This was the best fish fry I’ve ever eaten and a half pound of fresh white fish (you can watch him cut it up and bread it)! It was so good! Cute little outdoor/garage seating. The owners are super nice and helpful with any little tips you might want for the area! A great little hole in the wall!
