    Turkey dinner
    Rebecca M.

    What a cute little hometown diner - you walk in and you feel transported to home. The staff is so friendly and knowledgable about the menu. The portions were all huge and the prices were relativley cheap! I got the turkey dinner plate with chicken and dumpling soup - it was delicious! The soup was the star of the show! My mom got a omelet which she also said was good! This will be a staple to hit up anytime I am in monroe - I also would like to add it was full of locals!

    Definitely a place to visit if you want to take a nostalgic trip into the past. The food and service is amazing, and the atmosphere? Well, it's everything you've come to expect from a diner!

    Great place to eat haven't had a bad meal here yet. Service is always excellent - always greeted with a smile and friendliness - restaurant is always kept clean - table turn is quick even during busy times - good delivery is always within 5-19 mins after ordering without fail - quality if food and ingredients are always top notch - with typical diner fashion quantity of food for the price is always very high - perch was well cooked with juicy flavor taste good hot or cold, tarter sauce has good depth and flavor not your typical bland sauce - omelette was not as juicy as previous ones I've had here but the way it's cooked the ingredients cooked within the eggs is a unique style I've not seen at other places with the cheese folded in the middle, fresh shredded cheese not the bland tasteless sliced cheese used most every other diner a welcome distinction - the ham is sliced deli ham rather than the desired "real" ham cubbed but still good flavor, sausage appears to be a good tasting juicy flavor links cubbed, and bacon is a nice juicy well cooked variation chopped up all together in great quantity providing a quality meat omelette taste with every bite - never just eggs alone either these guys - the potato hash browns in typical diner fashion well cooked and juicy enough flavor profile - the coffee is good here not acidic tasting but also not a unique deep rich coffee I'd wish any great diner like this would consider serving - all in all you can never go wrong when choosing this diner for your finning experience whether it's breakfast, lunch, or diner you will always enjoy a great meal and terrific atmosphere with exceptional service - Bon appetite!!

    Small Greek salad - comes with pita bread

    Decided to grab a late lunch at 2:30 pm on a Friday at the parking lot was full! Got seated quickly. Ordered the falafel appetizer with garlic sauce and hummus - very tasty (falafel was a little salty). The pita bread was fresh & soft. Hubby said the chicken fried steak was excellent. Portions are generous. Restaurant is a little older so not much for "a look" and needs a deep clean but overall presentable inside & out. Would definitely come back. Staff was kind

    Grilled whitefish dinner!

    It has been awhile since my last visit. They have great soup and fish. Started with a fantastic bowl of clam chowder soup; cross between potato soup and clam chowder with a chicken broth base - very good! For the main course I had the fried walleye with mashed potatoes and gravy which is always consistently fantastic!

    Harbor Hook and Grille - Tuna Poke Bowl

    Harbor Hook and Grille

    3.5(11 reviews)

    Location, location, location! Located near a hot fishing spot, you'd expect a sea fare and that's…read morewhat Harbor Hook has. Not only Great Lakes fish but also ocean poke and calamari. This is not the type of restaurant that you'd expect in a coastal fishing village. My four star rating is based on the above and value. As pictured, the cuban sandwich and onion rings. I prefer battered rings, but these were breaded and seasoned. They were the best breaded rings i've ever had. The cuban sandwich was traditional with ham, pulled pork, cheese and pickles. It wasn't pressed, but that didn't affect the taste, just the appearance. The servers were very attentive and refilled my iced tea three times. Very clean eating area and restroom.

    On our way home from a run to the airport, we were both famished, so we turned to our trusty…read moreresource - Yelp! We were approaching the Monroe area, and did not want any fast food. We chose Habor Hook & Grille. This restaurant sits right across the street from the harbor, hence part of the name, and the food pics looked appealing. It was almost 9pm on a Tuesday night, so there weren't many people. It was rather dark when we entered, so I inquired if it was too late to get dinner and we were told the restaurant was serving until 10pm. The restaurant and bar area was a large open area with very high ceilings. There is an outdoor area for seating and what looked like a bar area as well. I asked about daily specials and our server told us there weren't any due to the Harbor Hook & Grille just implemented a new menu with several new offerings. Our server was very friendly and attentive. We ordered the Calamari appetizer (served with a thicker marinara sauce), the Harbor Cubano sandwich with fries, and the Tuna Poke Bowl. Tha Calamari was good, but could've used some additional seasoning as it was somewhat bland. The Harbor Cubano sandwich was also good - roasted pork, sliced ham, Swiss cheese, dill pickles, and mustard. There wasn't much mustard if any, so our server offered any of their sauces - a garlic aioli was selected. This sandwich was served with fries. I am not sure if it was because we arrived so late or what may have happened, but these fries were somewhat mushy and limp. They may have been sitting for a while or undercooked. The Tuna Poke Bowl, in my opinion, was the highlight of our food selections. The flavor of the tuna, cucumber, carrots, radishes, and pickled onions were topped with a spicy sauce that paired very well with this dish. All-in-all a decent dining experience. I would've gone with 3.5 stars if available in Yelp! scoring.
