There was a wide variety of options for everyone's taste. We came across this place right before the dinner rush. It's very close to the lighthouse outlets. Our drinks were nothing extraordinary, but the food was full of flavor. Our server Brittany was great, even when there was a little mix-up in the kitchen with our meal.

These truffle fries were so good. The Parmesan went really well with the sauces. The manager was also really kind and thoughtful of how much stuff he put on it. The ambience of the restaurant was really clean and stylish. Five stars!!!

I was there on 3/4/24 in the evening with friends and ordered the 8 oz flat iron steak. I catch a lot of flack because I like my steak well-done, no pink. Whoever the chef was cooked the best, juiciest steak I’ve had in a very long time!!! The green beans were great but I wasn’t a huge fan of the mashed potatoes. All in all, a fantastic dinner!

Food was really good! Went for lunch and it was a little busy. They only had one server, but everyone working helped in some capacity. The service didn't suffer at all. They all did a fantastic job!

I had the Mediterranean Salad with Mango Salmon on top. It was yummy. My family raved about their dishes as well. The Surf and Turf and mini burger bites with Parmesan fries were also a hit.

Never give 5's but there was nothing wrong. Slow Tues night in Mich City and this wasn't my first choice but the one ahead wasnt open tho Yelp said it would be. ( call ahead). Anyway, service was fast , pleasant , ambience very nice to the eye uppers al pub , soft lighting and good soft mod music. The salad salmon and green goddess were great.

Due to the President's Day weekend there was an influx in the typical Sunday business Fiddlehead usually has.....however this DID NOT stop the TOP TIER service provided by this 4 person staff. We were greeted by a smiling hostess who jumped in WHEREVER she was needed. Our server, a male was more than gracious moving with a great sense of urgency while never missing a beat. Customer service was the priority and boy was it obvious. There was no bartender this weekend but that didn't stop our server from delivering an outstanding margarita. I can't leave out the cooks...sending out delicious orders in a timely manner. We have visited FiddleHead a few times after shopping and enjoyed ourselves but this experience will make this restaurant our forever "go-to" after our shopping sprees! I can't say enough, as I looked around all the patrons seemed beyond satisfied....smiling, eating, and toasting to a wonderful Sunday afternoon lunch. Service like this can be rare in these times but we are truly thankful for the service we recieved last weekend.

I ordered a lake perch dinner, which came with five pieces of deep fried perch, french fries, coleslaw, and tartar sauce. The coleslaw was excellent, but the portion was extremely small, and did not even fill up the tiny container. The fries were served in a basket and were excellent. My main complaint was with the perch, which was heavily breaded and tasted quite fishy. Usually lake perch has a mild taste, which made me think that the perch was either ocean perch, or was old. Furthermore, the day we were there there was only one server, but he did an excellent job of waiting on all the tables, and the service did not suffer. The food was brought out promptly.

Beautiful restaurant with amazing food! I always order the banging shrimp appetizer, but I’ve been trying everything else as well! Yesterday I had the grass fed burger, with goat cheese, all the fixings, tomato bacon jam, and topped with a pretzel bun. I’m getting hungry again just thinking about

Very poor Customer Service.Our first time here, a horrible experience. We walked in, only a few seated tables and not one staff in sight. We stood at the front door then finally a host came from the kitchen to seat us in a booth realizing the seat had greasy hand smear and we showed the host, it looked gross. Oddly Host seemed frustrated to move us to a clean table like we were an inconvenience and then brought over the manager. He never apologized just moved us to a cold table with wobbly chairs after we asked for a booth. We didn't feel welcomed. We were sat under this massive out of place obnoxious gay flag that should be outside on a flag pole at your home or in a personal setting. Honestly what does gay sexuality have to do with dinner? We have gay family and friends but this looks like the owner is using his establishment as a soapbox. Absoutely obnoxious have some class. No one who comes to dinner needs to know about anyone's sexuality.So far, dirty, gross, rude, cold and classless.After being treated as though we are the inconvenience.We waited for the server to take our drink order, seen the three other tables needed refills too as we waited again...The owner/manager man came back out to take our order looking disheveled. We ordered a Manhatten and martini, he then rolled his eyes and said "yep" YEP? What in the world! Where is the hospitality? We finally decided to just leave. This is Not the place.Update; We found a great experience across the street at a place named Leeds! ?
