Free pitcher of beer with an order of a pizza! What?!? We even got Keewaunaw Brewing Company Amber!!! We are veggie lovers, so we had the veggie pizza. I was a little skeptical about broccoli on a pizza, but this was probably the BEST pizza my husband and I ever had! No joke!! The sauce, the crust, fresh mushrooms, tomatoes, peppers, and just the right amount of cheese! Yummy! I hope my son can get a scholarship to Michigan Tech someday so we can come back and enjoy. Thanks for a great experience. Service was excellent as well!

This is your quintessential UP bar and restaurant aka "fine dining" in town. It was recommended by…read morea local for their great pizza so we had to give it a try. Despite the homemade crust, it was a bit heavy and NOT the thin crust we had in mind. It's not exactly the rising crust but more dense on the edges as seen in the picture. Definitely not worth coming back for. The food was just average with big portions. The 14 inch large pizza is too much for two people! With that being said, the friendly service made up for the mediocre food. Our server was very attentive and helpful. Even informed us how the pizza was charged with the split. If you're looking for a good pizza spot, this falls short of the mark. I understand it's the UP and resources are scarce but there are much better options in Houghton and nearby.

I got the homemade fries and those were excellent as well. I didn't think the coleslaw was the best but that's minor. Overall, if you are looking to go have a burger or sandwich at a decent price, this is certainly a good place to try out!

Today was our first day there and we tried the new broasted chicken. Wow! Chicken like it should be, Tender, juicy but not greasy and properly seasoned. Four piece meal included 2 sides (the corn on the cob was grilled!). Waitress was attentive and friendly (and knowledgeable). It was relatively busy (Friday night) and we received our food within 15 minutes. Prices are very reasonable. They really had it all together despite the fact that they had only been open six days. This is the kind of restaurant this area has needed for a long time. Congratulations to the owner/chef and staff. Looks like you have a winner!

Waiter was very friendly. When my French onion soup arrived, we still had no silverware or napkins. Waiter was quick to respond, but the silverware never showed up. Finally, I went to him and asked again. Not good, but not a dining experience buster. The French onion soup was better than decent. So hot, I had to let it cool...a good thing. I ordered the whitefish almondine...disaster. The crust was horrible and I was able to scrape it off, but still terrible. The almondine part; just sprinkled some almond slivers on the fish after it was cooked. I now kick myself for not sending it back. The side of vegetables were terrible; undercooked and barely warm. I wonder if they were from a can? I should have sent the fish back and offered to pay for the soup. My mistake. My wife had the tacos. Not a good choice in the Michigan Upper Peninsula. She ate one of them and brought the other home, which likely will go uneaten. I dont like bashing a restaurant on Yelp, but this whole meal was a disaster. However, the place was busy and loud. Worst meal in the UP. Worst meal elsewhere in a long time. I do not recommend.

Days of travel; each breath that exited our gelid nostrils could likely be our last. And there she stood. A divine messenger, luminous in the dismal twilight. Her name.....was Carmelita. Of our band of nomadic travelers, Father Rose was the worst off. His life nearly lost from the blistering hypothermia. Doctors from Grand Rapids later confirmed his saving grace. One word: Thimbleberry. The hostesses assisted us in changing out of our twisted, ragged robes. With fresh blankets, they wrapped us tightly. In the kitchen, retired Michelin chefs performed a similar action, wrapping world famous wet burritos. The aroma of freshly sliced vegetables, carne asada seared golden, filled the impeccable cookhouse. The dancing flames of the fireplace lies in the heart of Carmelita. Her warm breath nursing our bodies back to life. Crackling pine, a line of rosy sparks travels upward. We watch the show as we pack our growling bellies. Fajitas and quesadillas so exquisite, each bite began to mend the void deep inside our hearts. The caretakers offered us lodging, but we felt we mustn't overstay our welcome. Oh Carmelita, keeper of the flame. We will return, though the snows swallow the roads and the winds forget our names.
