We had a group of 6, meaning we got to sample a lot of the menu from meatloaf, smothered chicken, parmesan crusted whitefish, fish fry, and the Sharon and when I say not a single dish disappointed! We also ordered a hot Chocolate cake (10/10 recommend if you want a decadent HOT chocolatey dessert) and peanut butter pie. The restaurant is small, and reservations are required so plan accordingly, but this is such a great place right on the ausable river. They also have several bird feeders and it was so peaceful to watch all the different birds as we sat and enjoyed a wonderful meal.

It's a great local dive bar, something we prefer. Atmosphere was lively, the bartender was great, and the food was really good! My husband got the burger and I ordered the perch.

Ordered the grilled chicken sandwich and liked it. The chicken breast was large and tender, which is mostly what you're looking for in this item. I washed down the bird with large draft of Two Hearted. Oberon was on offer too, and I saw a fair selection of craft brews in cans/bottles behind the bar, so if like me you suffer from beer snob tendencies, you won't feel left out here. Service was personable and efficient. I come to the Grayling/Roscommon area often and will probably work this into the rotation.

They have delicious food. I love the chicken tenders and the fries. My husband always tries a different burger and he loves all of them. This time I also got an order of mozarella sticks and they were crispy and good. The fries are my favorite part especially with their ranch. The service is really great too. Its really spacious inside with really cool seating. It isn't too loud in there when you go between 3-5pm. I think its the perfect time to go with kids. They do have high chairs. If you buy a growler, save the bottle and you can refill it super cheap. My husband only paid $12 for a growler to be filled

We would've loved to have stayed longer because it's a great environment. What a disappointment!!!

Who knew Grayling was a dining destination?!? We came here…read moreon a Saturday night. It is rather unassuming from the outside, but nicely decorated on the inside. There were five of us. We were seated in a booth in the front window. Aaliyah was our server, and despite the fact that she spelled her name several times for me I accidentally deleted the post, so I don't know if I have it right. But anyway, you should ask for her. Except for when I'm dining there because I want her to be MY server. They brought bread, which had a variety as well as two types of dipping oil. One was a pesto and I believe the other was a sun-dried tomato and they were both phenomenal. We ate our weight in bread. We had the shrimp fondue appetizer for the table. They were large fried shrimp. Not with much breading just a light coating. And it was served with a Borson cheese dipping sauce that was killer. You can't go wrong. Two of us had fillets two had the crabcakes and I had the cowboy ribeye special. Two of our diners also had a cup of tomato soup and split a wedge salad. See pictures. The wedge salad had an amazing dressing on it and they split it in the kitchen. The tomato soup was very tasty. I would have that again. The crabcakes were excellent without a lot of breading. It had a Romano sauce that had red pepper in it, which is not something I like, but they were very tasty. The crabcakes came with excellent oven roasted potatoes. Very crispy very good. The fillets came with a mixed medley of vegetables and a mashed potato, and my ribeye steak came with grilled asparagus and the mashed potatoes. If I were going to have any complaint it would be that the steaks were just slightly cooked more than I would've liked. Next time I would order rare. We had the carrot cake and the lemon cake for dessert. Carrot cake was good but the lemon cake was out of this world. Absolutely amazing. We also had the chocolate martini which was fabulous. Not too chocolatey and not at all too sweet. As I mentioned, our weight staff were exceptional. Overall, I would say this was fabulous.

Northern Michigan is incredibly fortunate to have a restaurant of this caliber. Whether you're local or making the drive, Mimi & Pipi's is absolutely worth the trip. It's a dining experience you won't forget.

There are several workers here or visitors not sure but they are around. I ordered a philly sandwich which was very salty it did have the green peppers with it but no onions. It came with staled chips. Very disappointed. My husband ordered a cheeseburger. He said it was ok. I cant even see giving it a second chance which many times I give to a restaurant.
