This place is amazing! I work in hospitality and have had the pleasure to dine at some great top of the line restaurants and I place this in my top 5 experiences. The building is updated with an elegant modern feel. The experience was great from start to finish. We were greeted and told about the dining experience, then we had the pleasure of experiencing a “traditional fish boil” but with a Cajun twist, with shrimp replacing the traditional white fish. The food was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The service and attention was nicely balanced. All this being said the thing that makes the experience is that the chef and owner Paul walks around the dining room and speaks to each table. This shows that he truly cares about each person’s dining experience and wants to be apart of the experience. This is big city dining with a personal small town feeling. I HIGHLY recommend visiting for a twist on the traditional Wisconsin fish boil.
PS- order the lobster with the Cajun boil, you won’t be disappointed.

This is a family business-and it shows. Great service. The shrimp boil was fantastic. We added the lobster, but not necessary. So much food and the seasoning was amazing. I have eaten the traditional whitefish boil & while this is more historical, the cajun shrimp boil tastes far better. Most of the seating has a water (marina harbor) view. Highly recommend.

They describe the history of it beforehand, but was overrated honestly. Food was decent but having to pick fish bones out of my mouth for half the meal while dealing with a fly buzzing around was kind of annoying.
It was more of an experience, but that was it. Will not come back.

The fish boil is quintessential Door County. The Kettle Black did not disappoint! We did the Cajun boil which was shrimp instead of whitefish. It was incredible. The broth was spicy, flavorful, and fantastic. Very tasty cornbread side and don’t miss the cherry pie for dessert. The best meal we had on our week long family vacation. This was a slightly more elegant fish boil than ones I have been to in the past but that made it even better!

It seems all the fish boils in Door County have their own sense of personality and flair that makes them distinct, and Kettle Black is no exception. The hominess of the restaurant is carried with a more chic modernity, while still embracing the salt-of-the-earth essence of the fish boil. The owner is friendly and charismatic, and the staff accommodating and attentive.
And the food – OH THE FOOD. Fish was perfect, ribs exquisite, and who would have thought the best cornbread I’ve had since high school would be in Wisconsin.
I’m still longing to try all the fish boils in the region, but I’d love to return for the Kettle Black Cajun boil, and imagine it will be hard to beat.

First when we had the reservation, Paul was very professional and thorough.
The restaurant itself had a great atmosphere right on the lake, and the boil outside right in the lake was amazing.
Paul gets everyone involved and explains the whole process and you can tell he has a passion for what he does.
The food was absolutely amazing!
Definitely the BEST shrimp and lobster we’ve ever had.
The veggies were made perfect and the entire staff was very attentive and professional.
Best advice, get the lobster option and definitely try the homemade sauce..
We even bought some to take home..
We already booked to come again this year.
This is definitely one restaurant to come to if you’re in Door County!

Tonight’s cajun seafood boil hit all the right notes. The spice blend was warming rather than overwhelming – and every component from the shrimp to the vegetables absorbed those rich flavors beautifully.
The staff made the whole experience feel relaxed and welcoming. No rushed service or forgotten requests, just attentive care that let us savor both the food and the evening.
Highly recommend the trip!

Don’t normally write reviews but had to after this meal. This was the best meal we had on our trip to Door County! The Cajun boil was fabulous. It’s a family owned restaurant, and the owners were so friendly. We had our 10 month old with us and they were so accommodating and kind about us staying a bit longer to finish eating. Our waiter Miguel was also great, interacted with our daughter throughout dinner, and was so quick to bring us a new spoon when she dropped ours on the floor. Such a great environment. 10/10 would recommend!

This was my first time here. Tonight’s special was the Cajun Shrimp Boil, with an option of a Lobster Tail. This place is a soothing atmosphere. The staff were nice and friendly. The food was fresh and customers were able to watch the boil as it cooked. The broth was flavorful and you definitely got plenty of food. Cherry pie was served. I would definitely recommend coming here.

Had the cajun shrimp and lobster boil. Normally not a huge fan of shell fish but was pleasantly surprised. The seasoning and broth were great. Owner takes a personal interest in your dinning experience, something you don’t always find in Door Cty, WI. As a year round resident, this was a very welcome alternative to the common whitefish boil, which they also have in season.
