    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

    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

    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.

    Sat down at a table with my wife. Waited 15 minutes for a waiter to take our order before we decided to leave. Really bad service.

Our server was very friendly and made sure to let us know which items were his favorite that we should try. Definitely recommend trying Kingston Kitchen if you're in the area!

    Authentic Jamaican Flavor in St. Ignace!…read more We were so pleasantly surprised to find Jamaican food in St. Ignace with the addition of Kingston Kitchen at the Inn--and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Nick was our server and he was both attentive and genuinely friendly. Even though he was clearly busy, he still made us feel right at home. 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!

I'd read the…read morereviews, looked at the customer photos of the burgers over and over, check out the menu photos... And drool. But for whatever reason, we'd always put it off when visiting our cottage in Moran, Michigan each June. Then today me, my wife, and our dog Jax dropped in. It was EXACTLY how I thought it would be. Old school drive-in vibe, friendly server, and delicious burgers in the comfort of the family SUV. Even the fries and onion rings were perfect. We ordered a plain burger patty for the dog, and our server even brought him a biscuit treat! Who does that? We'll be regulars every time we visit our Yooper friends in our favorite state from now on. There's a Taco Bell next door. Nobody cares lol. Go there now. Unless they're closed. In which case, wait until they're open. Pay attention people!

The drive up location had open spots so we took one and man we were happy. The waitress comes right to your window and takes your order, brings your food and takes your money. Cash only, but I was good with that. The waitress was very friendly, attentive and busy! She and one other were constantly going in and out taking orders, bringing food and working. The food....OMG! Go hungry if you decide to tackle their 1/2 to 3/4 lb burger. I thought I was hungry until that 1/2 lb burger came. So heavy, but soooo good. If you want a good old fashioned burger, this is it! No wonder they have a legacy and long wait time. Ours was 20 minutes this time. We had stopped another time and went in and found out it was over an hour. We passed then because of time constraints but nothing was holding us back this time. If you have passed this iconic place in the past and not stopped, you're missing out. They have other things on the menu besides burgers, so you should be able to accommodate most people in your group. So good!
