I am so happy to see them open again. Last year when we made the trip to the UP, they were closed because of a death in the family. We stop there every summer for some great White Fish caught fresh out of Lake Superior. Wonder fish, and friendly home town feel. Cant wait to go back.

We came across this restaurant by chance. They offer a good selection of fresh fish, but the big “wow effect” remains. In the (unfortunately only lukewarm) Whitefish Chowder, which we had as a starter, we could not find any piece of fish.

Stumbled upon this place years ago on our UP vacation. Was surprised to see a 40 min wait in the middle of nowhere on the weeknight. It was worth it! The best white fish we had! Ever! Prepared in all sorts of different ways, and every single one was tasty. I would put it in the rank of local attractions 🙂

There’s a reason there is never anyone in the parking lot. It’s more of a small-town friendship thing- if you are a regular, you don’t really care what the food tastes like, and just go because you are a loyal patron. If you are just passing through, however, head to Pete’s in Brimley- they have wonderful service, great fish on Friday night, and a very cozy atmosphere.

The lighting is bad, atmosphere is awkward like a classroom. They bring out sides like salad and cottage cheese that are still wrapped in plastic. But none of that matters when you taste their fish. These guys do one thing and they do it better than ANYBODY. If you want to taste whitefish that has been elevated to its highest expression, akin to caviar and lobster, than you must eat at this restaurant. Bravo Wilcox!!

Cannot get any fresher whitefish! They are literally bringing it in one door, fresh off of the boat, and out another door to the dining area, fresh cooked. Definitely a hidden gem!
