Modern and trendy restaurant, especially compared to the other choices in Houghton…read more I sat at the bar and my server was the bartender. She was very friendly and helpful, even though she was kept quite busy mixing drinks for the other diners. I ordered the Jagerschnitzel with a small side salad. The "small" salad was quite large and very fresh. I can't imagine how big the large salad is! My Jagerschnitzel was good. I would say I would have a lighter breading would have made it even better, but I'd still recommend. Tonight was a " Chamber of Congress" type evening in Houghton. I don't imagine 80 degree nights happen a lot way up here! The great weather brought a lot of people out and about enjoying the river walk and downtown. The restaurant had to limit the number of people seated because they must have been at capacity for their staff.

Well my mistake as I gave them the wrong date. So we turn up when there was a pile of people who had made reservations - the manager was amazing - she was already so busy but she went out of her way and managed to get our party of 8 sorted and seated. The service was amazing , the food even better. The BEST prawns I have had outside of Australia - like amazing. My husbands chicken was really great as well - in fact all of our meals were cooked to perfection. Even when they were so busy with the graduation we were made to feel like we were fabulous. The band was great as were the cosmopolitans. The manager kept checking on us making sure we were ok and she was so so lovely. I highly recommend Bonfire , even under stressful conditions they gave the best service, drinks, food and ambience. And don't forget the great prawns I highly recommend this place , I'm definitely purely going again.

The specialty drinks were fantastic, albeit pricey. I ordered the fish special and was very pleased. But...there is some serious not so good...we arrived early, 5:30 for dinner to beat the rush, but apparently that doesn't count. We waited for drinks..., we waited for appetizers..., we waited, and waited, and waited for our entrees..., when it finally arrived, everyone was thrilled, but they missed an order and one in our party waited even longer until finally served. If that want enough, we came back the next evening for the music and were told after ordering apps, that the wait would be 2 hours...mind you, the place was no where near even half full. And it took almost 2 hours. I will also echo the shock of an upcharge for using a credit card. Food alone would be 5 stars, but service was excruciatingly slow and so it's 3 stars.

There are so many healthy grocery options, tons of deli choices, hot food bars, household supplies, bring-your-own-container dry goods, tons of ethical and sustainable options, co-op merch, and some local made goods (I'm sure I'm forgetting some things, the co-op has everything you need for a healthy lifestyle). The cashiers are friendly, the workers on the floor are helpful, it feels like the people working treat each other as a family rather than just another job. Love supporting local and making good choices for my body and the earth!

You cannot beat a classic, especially when it's patio season and the Summer Shandies are on tap…read more Smokin'Hubster and I popped in for lunch and had a fabulous time. We rarely sit outside but this patio beckoned and we were helpless to resist. There's even outdoor seating available if you arrive before the restaurant is open! Silas brought us menus and took drink orders right away. We enjoyed the season's first shandies while exploring the menu. His attention was perfect and we shared some laughs each time he returned to our table. Neither one of us wanted to share (I guess) so we each ordered our own appetizers. I can never get enough smoked whitefish spread... until it's ALL MINE! I enjoyed every bite and would do it again. Patrick ordered the walleye strips and he did offer me a bite (generous devil that he is). They were perfectly crisp without being heavy or greasy. If I had known that... nah, I'd still get the whitefish. We'll be back to visit The Portside and try more menu items. Who knows, maybe we'll split something next time?

This review is for the deli-sandwich portion…read more One of the best sandwiches I've had in years. I live in Chicago area and simply cannot get a good sandwich. Either the bread, the condiments, the temperature (what's with heating the sandwiches) something is always wrong. Originally I am from northern New Jersey so I am used to NYC style delis, which consistently speaking, are the best in the country. That's how sandwiches should be. Anyway, ole girl and I were doing a road trip, this place had good reviews. The sandwich was absolutely delicious and made with LOVE! I would absolutely go back, and absolutely highest recco! We are approaching a thousand!

I certainly did not expect to find morels or lion's mane mushrooms! I got two sandwiches and a pickle from the deli. The pickle had a good snap and wasn't overly salted or spiced. It was refreshing on the trail. The sandwiches I picked out were the Gratiot River and the Brockway Mountain. I liked the Gratiot River more as the avocado gave the sandwich good moisture, while the Brockway Mountain was rather dry. They were well packaged for portability. The bulk foods section is extensive, and they have a good variety of snacks and frozen food that punches above its weight given the smaller size of the store. If you're in town, definitely stop by to pick up something new!
