    The Parmesan seasoning on the whitefish was so delicious!! The handmade rolls they serve as appetizers were also soft and not too filling, the best handmade rolls I've had so far!

    Had the smelt special and the whitefish sandwich. They were both good, the white fish sandwich could have had a little more fish on it. The pickles and tarter had a really good taste and we enjoyed it. The service was okay, they had 2 servers on and they made sure everyone was taken care of. It was clean and decorated with nicely. The one thing I wish they had was a kids shrimp meal.

    The restaurant is an absolute gem. The atmosphere of Audie's has an old-time feel with pictures of Mackinaw City and taxidermy on the walls. The customer service was excellent and the food was delicious. We started off with the Mozzarella Sticks and they were amazing!!! For dinner my husband ordered the Audie Burger, my son ordered the Double Bacon Cheeseburger, my daughter ordered the Chicken Parmesan, and I ordered the Lasagna. All of the food was made perfectly and was very filling. We did share the Devil's Temptation for dessert and wow that was rich and so good. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.

    Fried eggs and tuna melt both were very delicious

    Empty Salad bar...

    I came into Audie's expecting a higher-end dining experience, but it quickly became clear that wasn't the case. Right in the middle of the dining area, the waitstaff were doing side work--folding silverware into napkins--while guests were eating. It really took away from the atmosphere. Our server, Edgar, seemed more preoccupied with other tables. Service was slow, and we watched two tables get seated after us, eat, and leave before we were even served. For food, I ordered the whitefish, while my son and daughter got the three cheese grilled cheese sandwiches. The sandwiches were cooked in Whirl (or something similar), leaving them greasy and heavy. The cheese blend--sharp cheddar, Swiss, and garlic Parmesan--made them dry and sharp instead of creamy and gooey like you'd expect from grilled cheese. My whitefish portion was only half a fillet. The bill came to $64 before tip for one whitefish and two grilled cheeses--pricey for such an underwhelming meal. Honestly, the food was "meh" at best. The restaurant seems to survive solely on the tourist crowd; if it relied on locals, I doubt it would last. One more oddity: there's a large, well-lit salad bar in the middle of the room that's completely empty. It's apparently been "closed for years," but it still sits there like a relic. Overall, overpriced and overrated. Definitely not the upscale experience I was expecting.

    Soggy fries ...... no excuse absolutely lazy

    Cook needs some training Looks like they don't care Soggy fries good service good cod

    Stopped for breakfast with friends on our way home from Michigans Upper Peninsula. Easy access once you get off the Big Mac bridge. The service was good and prices were reasonable. Their homemade 1/3 pound sausage patty was very flavorful. Would definitely add to the list for a future adventure.

    I stopped here for a solo business late lunch knowing that they had some of the best Parmesan encrusted whitefish in the area and they did not disappoint. You have a choice of French fries or mashed potatoes with the entree (a baked potato is no longer offered) and a $ 1.99 up charge if you want coleslaw or a side salad. Complementary warm bread served with the entree. For dessert I had the homemade hot fudge cream puff that the waitress warned me was "huge". It can (and probably should) be shared with 2 other people. Low top seating. Lodge type atmosphere. Small restrooms. Friendly and prompt service. Up to 3% fee on charge cards (not debit cards). Competitive pricing. I have and will return.

    I've been here several times since it's been conveniently located near my motel of choice. The staff try, the wait has been short, the food has been fine, the vibe is chill. It's just not special. It's just not extraordinary, which is fine. I'm not upset, I'm not even disappointed - I'm just very neutral. It's like what I make at home (yay) but I have to pay for someone else to make it. Again, I keep stopping here, and I just keep wishing it was more somehow. That's not their fault .

    Wedge salad

    This restaurant is in the style of 1001 diner restaurants in the north. You all know what I'm talking about! Has all kinds of wildlife themed pictures it has that glossy log cabin themed sections of the wall. However they have a very extensive menu that includes seafood pasta steaks hamburgers and assorted sandwiches. They also have a placemat that has the full assortment of cocktails that you can order and it's pretty complete. I had the wedge salad here which was made with a small Romain lettuce it was on chopped and generously slathered in blue cheese salad dressing. Was one of the better wedge salads that I've had. Spaghetti was good although not the best I've had. I feel like it had a slight cinnamon flavor to it. This restaurant is in a tourist area so because of the nature of tourist traps the food is a little over priced. *insert meme of admiral ackbar saying "it's a trap!" But the waitress was very kind and the service was right on point. It's located just to the right of the bridge so if you're headed into the UP it's the perfect place to stop if you want to be quick. Go ahead and give it a shot!

    See all

    Nicest waitress. Worst whitefish ever. It was strong and slimy. They did remove it from my bill.

    RACIST BARTENDER!!!…read more On New Year's Eve 12/31/2025 night at like 10pm, I came to this lounge with family and friends to celebrate the holidays after leaving the Boyne Mountain ski resort nearby. We waited in line, showed ID, all that good stuff. After finding a good spot to hang at in the lounge, I walked up to the bar. My folks ordered, but I waited a while like 15 minutes before I decided I wanted a drink too. I asked one of the bartenders who was a skinny blonde "Excuse me". No response. There was loud music playing and people talking, so I didn't make a fuss. They have to tend to a lot of people and probably get overwhelmed easily. I turn to chat with my friends again then ask again after 5 minutes, "Excuse me". Just like before, no attitude or sense of entitlement. An ordinary "Excuse me", thinking I'm being well-mannered since I'm not from MI. The blonde bartender continues to serve others in front of me, and I turn around and chat with my friends again. Another 5 or so minutes pass, and I ask "Excuse me" again. And then she aggressively turns towards me and says "You're cut off. We don't do that here" with the most aggressively annoyed looking face ever. Mind you, I'm completely SOBER as I've yet to be served a drink! But I respond back with "I was just trying to get your attention and this was the only way since the music's so loud". I turn back around to face my folks and just rolled my eyes and left the situation as is (atp I actually was upset). I kid you not, a minute later, a skinny guy approaches me and says she's kicking me out and that I need to grab my coat from the rack... I don't hesitate and immediately leave because I refuse to stay where I'm not wanted. Overall piss poor service and mistreatment from staff/bartenders. 0/10 experience. Do NOT recommend at all. After I left, my friend's family stayed to defend me and tell her I did nothing wrong. My friend's mom even asked her "Excuse me" in the most Karen of fashions to prove a point and, in fact, was not kicked out. I cannot make this up people... God awful establishment.

    The manager was very rude and we waited a long time to get into an empty bar. The manager then…read morerefused service to one of our friends so we left. They missed out on a lot of business.
