(I wanted to go to the Keyhole as my first choice but was overruled) I had the steak hoagie with onion rings, and he had the white fish dinner. Both were very good. We sat at the bar to eat and the bartender was great. The food was delivered quickly and there were lots of TVs to watch as you ate. I will be going back next time I am in Mackinaw City!

We both had fish, my wife the walleye and me the whitefish. (I had it blackened and it was a couple extra bucks though. I've never seen additional fee for blackened.) BUT nonetheless it was EXTREMELY delicious. They also had a wide variety of craft beers. It was crowded but got in after only about a 5 minute wait. (too cold for the outside seating area). We were in the back by the pool table but wasn't too bad and not too loud so we could carry on a conversation. Alicia our waitress was extremely nice and the service was extremely quick considering how busy it was. So, our front desk receptionist was absolutely correct. HANDS DOWN !

The rest of the food was so good. 10/10 would return when back in mackinaw city. However!!! I called beforehand for a big group and they weren't accommodating at all. We ended up all coming in and sitting separate because they said they didn't have the capability to handle such a larger group, but we all came regardless and it was fine. I dont know felt weird.

The waitress apologized and had the kitchen remake my dish. It was much better the second time, however they didn't give me my vegetable. This place came highly recommended but I don't feel like it lived up to its reputation. Very disappointing.

No coupon is worth that abuse." But then curiosity got the better of us. We wanted to see this mess for ourselves. Color us disappointed! We must have hit it on an off day or something, because we had a decent breakfast and she even subbed fruit for the meat for me! I had three glasses of good iced tea, and the service was on point. Even with the coupon it cost pretty much what we normally pay for breakfast but I assume it's hit or miss with the food and service here. My guess is if it doesn't look crowded go for it. You may, or may not, be disappointed in any given day. We were pleasantly surprised today.

What a terrible place to eat!…read more our group of 4 were seated upstairs, ordered drinks and food, then saw a friend downstairs. we invited him to come up and eat with us, and when he did he mentioned 4 others from our ski group (24) were on their way. So we went down to his table, a bigger table, and had a seat. The server came by and asked if we wanted to order, to which we said we already had ordered upstairs but were going to move down to dine with our friend in a larger table. We were told we couldn't do that and had to go back upstairs! I asked to talk to a manager. When the manager came out, without even asking what was going on, He told me we had to go back upstairs and could not join our group! When I questioned his remark, he looked at me and said " you can leave" So we did! We went to Audies a few blocks away..... MUCH better food, DEFINITELY better prices and in talking to a few locals, found out how BAD customer service is at DIXIE, and that NONE of the locals will eat there! Management doesn't care about customers, just get them in and get them out! 100% tourist trap, HIGH prices, TERRIBLE staff including the "MANAGER" This is definitely a place that will fail and rightfully so. When a business doesn't care about customer service and only the bottomed line $$$$$ word travels fast! Terrible experience and will NEVER go back!

Settled on the 14 inch brick fire pizza with anchovies added, smoked whitefish spread and shiitake mushroom crostini. $26.77, missing 3 pizza ingredients. :( Scratched the pizza order. They are out of bell peppers, Calabrian Hot Long Chilies. Two apps only then. The whitefish and the mushroom crostinis were both quite good. 4 Stars on the apps. Disappointed in the lack of pizza ingredients, but overheard our table neighbors indicate the crust on their pizza wasn't so good, sounds like it worked out for us in the end. 1 star for not having onefo Guess it's a progressive dinner tonight. We are off to get more food.

There were a lot of families there. Now for the beer. I actually had only the brown ale. It wasn't too bad but not over the top wonderful. I would have had more to at least sample but it was fairly packed and only one TV. We wanted to watch the Tigers playoff game and from the other half of the brewery, we couldn't see the TV. Didn't try any of the food.

The place was clean, and you could see the history on the walls with some memorabilia. We got the traditional beef pasties with gravy. The flavor was good, but the pasty dough was a little thin. We still recommend this place, and we'll come back to try other flavors. Hopefully, the next one won't be saggy. One suggestion though, maybe make the dough a bit thicker?
