Tiramisu
Ainsley E.

This place was fantastic. Really interesting historic building with cool decor and a great bar. Parking nearby. Menu with something for everyone; classic options along with some different, more adventurous stuff if so inclined. I enjoyed my halibut, as well as the salmon I had a few bites of -- it was perfectly cooked. I was super impressed with the risotto. Awesome flavor and the chicken was so well-seasoned. They have a solid cocktail list here, too. Friendly service and great food will have us coming back to try more! Our only gripe was that the olives appetizer should come with more bread :P

After seeing good reviews and getting local recommendations, I stopped by here for a solo business lunch and seated myself in the upstairs open-air area. Numerous tables along the railing were reserved, but I was able to locate an open table. I ordered the salmon dip and crackers for an appetizer and the BLT with Gouda from the limited but well-discounted happy hour menu. The salmon dip came out after my entree, but it was still enjoyable, with plentiful cool, fresh dip and crispy, fresh crackers. The BLT + G sandwich was delicious, but the hand-cut French fries had some soggy ones. Low top bar and booth seating. Full bar upstairs/ downstairs and restrooms upstairs/downstairs. Great views with a fresh breeze. Excellent, friendly service. Lovely table setting with linen-like paper napkins. High-end dinner menu items like tomahawk and wagyu steaks. 20% auto gratuity for parties of 6 or more but no credit card use fee. Very clean. I would like to return for dinner in the future .

I'm super glad this place has a new owner. It's breathing some fresh new life into this place. The food was delicious and I'll be back to try some more. Can't complain about much of our experience. Only complaint is the duck and really that's just a personal preference. I'm not a fan of the half duck with a leg and thigh. It's just too hard to eat. Especially in an upscale environment. The flavor was definitely on point. Very well balanced and a very generous portion. We have been going to this place for years and can't wait to see what else they have to offer. 100% will be back for more.

Ratatouille confit with steak bites. Outstanding. Chef nailed the flavor.
Shela M.

Absolutely outstanding! What a great location with a beautiful deck, which is our preferred seating area when the weather is nice. The service is outstanding with knowledgeable and friendly staff who can walk you through the menu and take you on a tour of flavor experience to help you order! But obviously the star is the food. I have the ratatouille which is absolutely phenomenal... especially with the steak bites added! Although I think I would've prepared it with the chicken. People underestimate the power of ratatouille, but the Chef understood the assignment and created the absolutely most perfect ratatouille I've ever had. It's one of my most favorite dishes and is not often found on menus so when I see it, I get it... And this hit all the notes. Although it's a peasant dish from France, it's elevated in the most spectacular ways based on Chef's preparation. It takes you back to the most comforting dish you had as a child while reminding you that it's a fine dining experience.

Whenever I'm in town, I truly love visiting this establishment not only do they have vegan options. The staff is always incredibly friendly. I do love the rustic feel of the establishment. Now from what I observed, when you first entered the establishment there is a set of stairs, which, if you are someone who is wheelchair-bound or who uses a walker this may be difficult however they may be another entrance to get to the upper level. I didn't see a elevator, but it looks like there is stairs. However, once you get to the main level, it's wheelchair accessible. For my dining experience today I opt it for the vegan sweet potato croquettes. The brussels sprouts were absolutely delicious and I opted for a side of asparagus, absolutely divine.

Whenever you travel to Port Huron, this is a must-good restaurant. The decors inside is vintage like the name, but the must see is the view from the rooftop dining area. Not only is there a beautiful view but the drinks and good are made well also. The service this time was fast and the prices is within reason.

The food was very good. The service was great. The upstairs was very nice. Down stairs looked equally as nice. I am glad with picked upstairs the weather and views were great!!!!

As always the food is amazing. We had the salmon spread and Brie for apps. Wife had the lobster roll. I had to have the Halibut. So many things on the menu I like. Only time I don't get the Halibut is when it's sold out!

Rooftop view

Great variety in the menu. Properly prepared generous halibut filet with asparagus. Good ribeye. Nice view from the rooftop.

Dinner rolls not included with the meal.

This visit was my families second time in the last year. The servers were polite, food took a bit…read morebut we had appetizers so it was ok

We chose Freighters for our first Valentine's Day date night after having two kids, and we were…read morecompletely let down. From the moment we walked in, the experience was disappointing. The hostess was rude, and when we were seated, there were straws, wrappers, and spilled liquid underneath our table. No one offered to clean it, and after being sat, no one came to our table for over 20 minutes. When our waiter finally arrived- without greeting or introducing himself he just asked "has anyone been with you yet?" *mind you he had been in the section tending to TWO other tables the whole time we were there*. We ordered drinks (an old fashioned and a mocktail), along with cheese curds for an appetizer and a steak and burger for dinner. Our drinks didn't come out for another 15 minutes. When the waiter brought them, I asked if he could put all of our food in at once if he didn't already. He stated he already had because the kitchen was backed up. After that, we never saw him again. Meanwhile, the couple seated right before us received their drinks, meals, and even dessert. Another table was served three appetizers during the time we sat there waiting. Our table was available after being on a waitlist of 35 minutes at 7:11pm and by 8:30pm we still had not received ANY of our food or seen our waiter again. We left money on the table to cover our drinks and left. To make matters worse, the table next to us remained dirty the entire time we were there, and an 8-top nearby sat covered in dishes the whole evening. Where was the manager? The owner? There was no one walking around apologizing for long wait times, no communication, and absolutely no effort to offer compensation or make things right. I have worked in hospitality in years and the way this night was handled was absolutely careless. I have given this establishment MANY changes, and this was the last straw. An absolute 0/10 experience. This was supposed to be a special Valentine's night out for us, and instead it was frustrating and disappointing. I will not be returning to Freighters, and I will be sharing this experience with others so they don't waste their special occasions the way we did.
