Had a wonderful dinner at The Fitz. I had the BBQ platter, the beef brisket was the best I ever had ANYWHERE!! Tender, smoky flavor, yummy! Kelly is the best waitress in the Copper Country!!

My wife Erika and I stayed at the Eagle River Inn this past summer to celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary and had a great stay. We had originally hoped to get away (NY, Italy...) but, due to time and money restraints we started researching cabins and motels closer to our home in Marquette, and came across the web site for...

This tiny bistro has all of the romance and charm of any five-star, bustling, big city restaurant. I felt like I was ON a boat because from where we sat, all we could see were the pristine waters of Lake Superior. My date and I had fresh fish that was simply and tastily prepared. We loved it. They have a... More

If you are a lover of craft beer or even craft whiskey this place is a mecca on the shores of Lake Superior. Beautiful views of a sandy beach and freighters going by, just got the burgers which are very large and very tasty. So many beers to pick from, with great reviews on all them which I wish more...

This little restaurant is right on the beach on Lake Superior. You have a front row seat of the awesome sunsets on the lake! They have a huge smoker on side of the building. Being a native Texan, I was very interested in tasting their smoked brisket. The best tasting brisket can only be found in Texas, but this was... More

Great menu, beer and spirit selection rivals anything you'd find in Chicago. Food was affordably delicious, varied and well presented.

A 5 star restaurant with a casual feel on the shore of Lake Superior. Everything they make is fresh and delicious! They have fantastic barbeque and if you enjoy a nice cocktail with your meal the selection is amazing. This is a true gem that is only open during the summer season and reservations are a must any day of... More

I travel the Upper Peninsula extensively, and know how rare it is to have food of this quality AND excellent service. I can count the places that do both on one hand, and Fitzgerald's is definitely one of those few rare gems. I haven't had everything on their menu, but from experience I can recommend the pulled pork sandwich, burger,... More

As you enter the dining room, the view was spectacular, overlooking Lake Superior not 50 yards away. If you are into whiskeys and single malt scotches you need to come here. The wine list was two full pages, but the whiskey list was 5. They also have a very large selection of beers, especially craft beers from all over Michigan.... More
