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.

Just a bit out of the way from main Mackinaw City area but well worth the extra couple miles drive…read more Nice feel to the place which was packed on a Thursday night. 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.

Wonderful culinary experience. In a elegant setting for a brewery. We had the brisket, pork belly,…read moredeep blue flat bread, and the Fish tacos! Everything was top notch.

Was hot when it came to table. Good taste. Nothing negative to say. Had a beer on draft. Felt it was not what it should be. Draft tends to be lukewarm.

I love bars like this. I was on a trip with one of my friends. We decided to try the Keyhole…read moreafter another restaurant did not no meet our expectations. (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!

When checking in to our hotel we asked the front desk receptionist for the best place to eat…read moredinner. She said hands down, The Keyhole Bar & Grill. It did not disappoint at all. 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 !

I loved the location of this restaurant, which was right in the heart of Mackinaw Crossings…read moreshopping center so as we sat right outside the restaurant enjoying our dinner, we were also entertained by great live music. Eating food in this shopping center kinda made me feel I was at an amusement park or something, so that was pretty interesting. But the foods from this restaurant were definitely better than those you'd get from theme parks. The burger was pretty legit and $8 for it at a touristy location was quite reasonable. We also got 2 sides: Fried cheese curds & Deep fried avocado slices. The cheese curds were outstanding, amazing, delicious, stretchy etc etc etc. The avocado slices had a really flavorful breading, almost cajun-y, it was quite different; it was delicious but I didn't expect that. Overall it was a delicious but heavy dinner - no surprise there with all the fried items - but we knew it was gonna be like that when we ordered it. I was happy with it :)

One of the few places that offers some vegan options. It…read morewas quite busy when we arrived but the staff was very friendly. I liked the Jamaican vibe this place had. I ordered the jerk tofu with plantains as none of their rice is vegan (they add butter to it). I was very surprised to see that... why eliminating dairy free customers by using butter in rice? It's not only vegans, but other people that have to avoid dairy that can't have the rice. I don't get it. The dish was very good, but in my opinion, it's meant to go with rice, so I wasn't enjoying it as much. The sauce just desperately needs rice to soak it in. Husband had the jerk chicken with rice and beans, and he did enjoy it, but said it wasn't jerk enough for his taste. They serve dishes on wooden plates with wooden utensils, which I found cute.

Excellent food, the coconut tofu curry took a while to be made but it was really worth the wait…read more They used fried tofu instead of soft tofu which really allowed the curry sauce to soak into it. My friends loved the jerk pork-- juicy, tender and filled with flavor. "Cooked just right", says my most judgmental friend. It did seem like the one hostess was overwhelmed with doing three jobs at once, so I hope they can find some additional help soon!

Took my daughter's up north to explorer for the weekend and try some new food it was a very long…read moreday we we're very tired and hungry so this was the nearest place and yum burgers and pizza yes! Nope that was not the case the burgers we're not done at all no flavor. I mean usually I tell my kids suck it up and eat it but this burger was raw inside I like mine's a little pink but like I said this was raw. I wouldn't even eat it. Then we paid $7 for a 2 litter of lemonade that's crazy! Didn't know until I got the bill. Then the pizza had way too much Italian seasoning on it it's like they open the top and just poured it right on. the buns on my daughter's burger were burned. But in the end he did refund me for the burgers.

Our waiter was so kind and attentive. We started off with drinks and complimentary bread. For dinner, my husband and I got the whitefish. It's caught daily. The fish is broiled with the option of three different seasonings. My husband got his fish with lemon pepper and I got mind with Cajun seasonings. Our meals came with veggies and the option of rice, a potato, or fries. We both got the potato. Really enjoyable. Definitely would come back again.
