Customer Reviews
I really enjoyed this place. We were greeted at the door but not in a pushy way. When entering the atmosphere was great, there was memorabilia all over the ceiling, some really cool light shades over the booths. There was a large bar area to the left and the kitchen was behind the bar at the back. After choosing what we wanted, we ordered at the bar. Server was very friendly. While waiting for our food I wondered to the rear of the restaurant where they had some arcade machines, some retro as well! I then had a look at the museum upstairs as well. It is very well done. Lots of memorabilia, newspaper cuttings, a few films playing and a couple of bridge models. We enjoyed the food, I had a cheese pizza and my wife had the spaghetti.
Absolute 5 star. People are nice and welcoming. I would highly recommend the plain chicken wings. They have crispy skin and juicy meat. Definitely one of the best wings I’ve ever had in my life here in the states. For photographers and history enthusiasts, the restaurant itself is a good place to explore. It brings me back to the good old days when workers were still endeavoring to build the Mackinac bridge.
The pizza here is really good. Hard to describe the taste and texture though. It was not overly filling and didnt cause me to feel bloated like some pizza brands do. Perhaps it was because the pizza is not overly saucy. I only give the place a four because it was a little dated, which I know is the theme of such a place but I think having comfy booths instead of benches that would be great and maybe a renovated bathroom or change in color... something, anything. I do like places with glasses with their name on it though. I will be back some time.
The pizza here was legit amazing — super fluffy and just hit the spot. Loved that you can pick your own toppings too, and they’ve got some solid veggie options 👌🌱 The vibe inside is really nice, chill and cozy. Only thing is the wait was kind of long, but once the food came out… totally worth it. Also, those cheese breadsticks? Fire 🔥 Definitely coming back for more.
The cauliflower crust is good. Service was ok. Order at the counter, then pick your seat, then they call out your number (and everyone else's number) while you're there on a loud microphone. They have Styrofoam plates and plastic silverware. Tiny cups for water. Everything is self-serve. It feels like an old nineties skate rink.
