★★★★★ 5.0 H Miller · Nov 2025

This is an excellent restaurant. Eclectic decor. I really appreciate all the local artists on display here. The food is excellent. I ordered Eggs, rye toast and American Fries. I'm going to start eating Fish Fry Friday here. Plus I will eat Lake Perch and White Fish Dinners here. Glad I found this modest priced gem. I felt right at home here. The service was the best. No complaints. Fun place. Great food. Affordable menu. Entree price is usually $38/lake shore. Here $16/fish. This place is amazing. I would rate it 10 stars

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Mrs Tanner · Aug 2025

Absolutely horrible the food was either over cooked or under cooked it sat for at least 15 min in the kitchen before bringing to the table because everything was cold, the hash browns were burnt, the French toast was only dipped on one side with egg it looked as if the cooked a whole egg on one side of the French toast, the scrambled eggs were also over cooked and disgusting, the over easy eggs were barely cooked at all, the pancakes were dont on 1 side, they remade the scrambled eggs but they came out under cooked and more like a omelette not scrambled. When we said something they didn’t seem like they even cared. The owner took 25% off the bill but to be honest we should have had more that. We left more than half the food on the table because it was awful and we didn’t have time for th

I had the Oinkers skillet. For $16 there wasn't a lot of food. Mainly potatoes with some mushrooms and green peppers and a little ham. I never tasted any sausage or bacon. Maybe I misread the menu. The restaurant itself is rundown and in bad need of paint and fixing torn upholstery.

A good true diner. Good portions. Fair prices. Good weight staff. He used to have conversation even though the restaurant had a good amount of people in it. The food came out fast and fresh coffee was taken care of anytime. The cup got low. Definitely recommend it. Not fancy but good Diners never

★★★★★ 5.0 Andrew Ostema · Dec 2025

Really good food and genuinely nice people. I love a solid mom-and-pop shop, and this place nails that small-business vibe. Everything felt welcoming and well run. I’d definitely go back, and that’s saying something because I’m pretty hard to please these days. Highly recommend. 👍
