    Whitfish hoagie
    Jody K.

    I decided that I really wanted fish, but not fried fish. Looking at menus of resaurants in the area, Johnnie's on 2 seemed to have exactly what I wanted. I walked in, and a very nice server (Sandy, maybe) seated me right away. She was very nice to me and gave me a lot of attention. She told me that she purposely sat me in her section. I orered the whitefish hoagie and iced tea. She made a point of making sure my tea was always full, and she even gave me some to go! The downside of the restaurant was that it was LOUD! They were playing a game, and even though the place wasn't crowded, they were using a microphone turned up very loud. And the noise from the pool table carried as well. I also noticed that the floor didn't have a good foundation; every time someone walked by, my table shook a bit. I enjoyed my meal and the service, but I must admit that I was glad to get out of there; as a weary traveller, it was just too loud for me.

    Whitefish dinner (broiled)
    Katy C.

    After a weekend of camping near Manistique, I was craving some vegetables and lighter food. Usually Nate and I just grab a pasty on our way up and back from the U.P., but we decided to stop at Johnnie's on 2 before heading back down state. I wanted some whitefish, and saw they had it on their menu. The restaurant was pretty empty when we arrived, so we were told to take a seat wherever. We ordered drinks - a beer from their extensive tap list for Nate, water for me - and then tried to order food. They were out of a few things I asked for, but I ended up getting the broiled whitefish dinner with a side salad and fries, and Nate got the whitefish hoagie. The salad came out first and it was huge. We were happy to split this and our bodies thanked us for the veggies. It was fresh and had great toppings - some red onion, fresh mushrooms, green peppers, cherry tomatoes, and plenty of cheese. Our other food came out shortly afterwards. My fish was a little bland and just slightly overcooked, but I still liked it. The fries were okay, just your typical frozen bar fries. Nate really enjoyed the whitefish hoagie - it was a generous portion of fish, at least on one half of the sandwich. I had a few bites and didn't love the sauteed red onions on it. Service was quick and efficient, and the bathroom was really clean. It was a good stop for after camping, and I might visit again the next time I'm in town.

    Nachos
    Kylie G.

    Aside from our food taking at least 45 mins to come out, this place was great. Portions are huge and I wish the waitress would've told us so we could've skipped out on the peel and eat shrimp but it is what it is. We could barely finish the nachos, which was mostly chips, they kind of skimped out on the meat as you can see in the picture, it was mostly veggies and chips. The peel and eat shrimp was surprisingly good and the kids hot dogs were also good but how do you mess up hot dogs right? Overall, the food was surprisingly good here.

    Had a taste of their chicken dumpling soup of the day very good. So I got the medium nachos, when it's says it feeds up to 3 people they mean it. Another person loved the Chicken bacon ranch wrap. Then another of our party got the reuben and like it a lot as well. Our waitress was very nice, DEFINITELY Recommend!!

    CIA Ribs with sweet and smokey sauce

    Food was awesome, service was exceptional and beer was COLD. Would recommend this place for good food and cold. It's a rowdy local dive. Great place

    Cheeseburger
    Tiffany V.

    Just a mile off of the beaten track. A restaurant you won't want to miss! Tons of food options! Wings, Burgers, Sandwiches, Salads, Onion Rings, Cheese Curds, and Sweet Potato Fries to name a few! Server was very friendly and accommodating! We stopped by w/ a decent sized group, and it wasn't too busy. We decided to try a cheeseburger with bacon, cheese and tomato, as well as a bag of potato chips. Both of which were delicious! We also tried the wings! There were a handful of sauces available for them! The garlic one was our fav! Sweet Potato fries were amazing! And the Kids meals were good and plentiful! Highly recommend! Will definitely be visiting next time we're in the UP!

    We were really excited to eat at Johnnie's because of the positive Yelp reviews. Unfortunately we left hungry and disappointed. First, when we walked into the restaurant there is no sign that says "seat yourself" or "please wait to be seated." This makes it very confusing and awkward for customers. They should take this into consideration and add a sign of some sort for their guests. Eventually a waitress said "sit wherever you'd like." We proceeded. We sat down and the table was so sticky. I asked the waitress if she could wipe the table but she said the finish on the tables is what makes them so sticky. This was bothersome but not a huge deal. The music was super loud for it being prime time for dinner around 6:15pm. My dad and I both were starving from a day of exploring the UP, and so we both ordered burgers. The waitress asked, "the burgers are cooked to "medium" is that okay?" Absolutely, that is what we preferred. They get brought out to us and they were cooked well done and so dry. It wasn't a classic juicy burger. I should have gotten a photo of it but I didn't. My burger looked good, the one pictured, but it was not cooked how we ordered. My dad took two bites of his burger and didn't even finish it. I ate about half of mine. The chili on mine was great. The waitress came back to check on us and she asked us how everything was. My dad politely said it was horrible and we showed her that the burgers were well done and dry. She apologized. She came back again to give us our bills and she said her manager instructed her to take off my dads burger since he didn't even eat it. But in this case, that isn't what we wanted. We don't want free food. What should have happened is the manager should have came out and apologized and learned more to help the business grow from this mistake. We tipped the waitress higher because it wasn't her fault. The bathrooms were clean which was great. Overall we didn't have a super great experience.

    Nice environment, terrific selection of beers with knowledgeable bartender and the food was good. Not what I was hoping for Easter dinner but it was very good nonetheless.

The outside baked crust is crisp and tasty. My husband's beef pastie was filled with beef, similar to other posters pictures and he really enjoyed his. Everything was hot too I have a tough time eating beef so opted for the chicken option and while my sandwich was tasty, it was truly 95% potato, a tiny bit of carrots and just very, very little chicken. Maybe I got the bottom of the bowl or something, but it definitely needed more protein. He did have a veggie option available today as well. This place is super popular spot and the sandwiches are $8.50 each, we ordered a gravy, as per other Yelp recommendations and we shared that. It was an additional two dollars. He gives you a lot gravy!! Parking is very limited out front, but we found people were in and out pretty quick. There are a couple picnic tables where you can sit and eat but honestly, he really just doesn't have the room for that so get it to go. The owner seems super friendly, and I love the fact that so many people are supporting his business. Another UP box checked!

He offered some excellent cocktail recommendations--my wife especially enjoyed the Old Fashioned, which isn't even usually her go-to! We also tried the Ting with a Sting and the house punch--both were tropical, flavorful, and fun. Do yourself a favor and order the cocktail flight--such a great way to sample several unique drinks. For dinner, we had the jerk chicken and ribs, and both were seasoned perfectly. The rice and beans were especially delicious, and they serve this amazing "fruit ketchup" with the fries that totally surprised us--sweet, tangy, and addictive. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. If you sit in the window section, you even get a partial view of the water. Delicious food, great drinks, and a super friendly staff--thanks for a great night, Kingston Kitchen!

We didn't have reservations, so picked up a buzzer from the hostess and joined the crowd waiting in the gift shop or lounging around at the entrance. Our wait was about a half hour, and we were seated in a rear dining room that should receive a Gold Medal for Eclectic Design. Our table was covered in laminated Detroit Tiger baseball cards, and the walls were plastered with beer company paraphernalia and Detroit sports memorabilia. Our server Aimy brought our meal -a Cheeseburger Platter ($11.99), and for me a cup of Clam Chowder ($4.49) and Shrimp Steamers ($14.99). My meal was excellent, the chowder was served piping hot and was loaded with chopped clams and potatoes. And man, oh man, were the shrimps great. They were a half pound served shell-on "Caribbean style" with lemon and cocktail sauce. Yes, they were messy to eat but were so worth the mess. Aimy helped me out with a few wet naps. We had an excellent experience here.

The waitress, while friendly enough, did not have a good grasp of the English language. And all for just under $50. This place is definitely not depending on repeat business. Compared to this,place, Long John Silvers is 5 star dining. Walked away hungry and $50 lighter. I won't be back.
