Greeted by the bartenders when we walked in, we chose where to sit and walked up to the bar to oder drinks. They have all the well classics in beer and booze so if you don't want snooty, don't order it. If you want high end cocktails with homemade tinctures - they've got you! So the locals are covered and the tourists are covered. The menu is short and sweet. We ordered everything. Popcorn - cool and yum! They put on a bbq rub instead of plain salt. I liked that touch a lot ( and I love my popcorn!). Hot dog - coney style. You want to bath in the chili! The meat in the hot dog is rich and full of flavor. Soft bun, top notch classic dog. Pulled pork - nice pickled sides add good acidity to the pork. It could use a side of sauces though. It would be cool if they had a carrier of different homemade sauces to choose from. Ribs - sold individually. Kind of a cool concept. Reduces waste which is always a good thing. Good smoke flavor and the sauce was really good too. I do love a Carolina sauce but our fiends didn't care for the sauce (mustard base). Again, this ties back to needing some sauce.

As a city slicker I have access to lots of amazing restaurants and Harbor Haus exceeded my expectations. I had the burrata cheese special which was so very tasty, my cocktail was made with local strawberries which are currently in peak season (I had two) and my entree was the local trout and I swear it was the best piece of fish I have ever had. Can't go wrong with this place! The service was wonderful and my table overlooking the lake was a dream. My only regret is that I am only in town for one night, otherwise I'd be eating there again.

We did not know this until we were seated and should have noticed since there was only one other table with patrons. Hindsight looking at the website reviews I noticed the reviews were written by Jane Doe and John Smith giving it 5 stars. Hmmm. We ordered an appetizer and 3 entrees with hopes for the best, thinking it was just off season on a Friday evening. Rolls were cold. Appetizer of grilled cauliflower was under seasoned and soggy. The lettuce in the salad was browned. One of us ordered the veal and schnitzel. Veal was extremely overdone, dry, and almost burned. The schnitzel had no flavor. I ordered the salmon which tasted fishy and was not cooked properly, and the side of rice tasted like Uncle Ben's. My mother ordered pork chop and baked potato. The potato was cold in the middle and the pork was dry and flavorless. We were wondering if everything has been previously frozen or was from a previous dinner service. Unfortunately we were hoping for the best during our 1.5 hour wait for the entree course but were greatly disappointed. The waitress and hostess were friendly. The establishment misrepresented itself as a beautiful historic dining experience. It was historic. Hopefully the owners recognize the historic significance of this building and improve the dining experience.

The Hut - A Gem in the Keweenaw!…read more The Hut is a very unique experience, and we were thrilled to stumble upon it--especially since dining options in the area are a bit limited. From the moment we walked in, we were struck by the quirky decor that ties into the Keweenaw's mining history. It's charming, memorable, and adds a special local touch you don't often find. My wife was on the hunt for some Lake Superior whitefish, and The Hut *delivered*. She went with the broiled preparation and couldn't stop raving about it--flaky, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. I opted for a patty melt and was equally impressed. The marble rye was perfectly toasted, and the flavors were spot on. Service was decent overall. Our server did forget my tea, which was a minor hiccup, but honestly, it didn't detract much from the experience. The quality of the food and the one-of-a-kind atmosphere more than made up for it. If you're in the Keweenaw and looking for a satisfying meal with some local character, The Hut is definitely worth a stop.

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.

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.
