| - After reading several rave reviews for the fish fry we decided to try this place. We arrived at 5:30 on a Friday in Lent and knew we were already in trouble when parking was hard to find. The dining room was packed and we were told there would be an hour wait. Since we had driven across town, we decided to wait it out in the bar. There is plenty of room to wait and have a beer from the huge selection they have. In 30 minutes we were called for our table. Two of us ordered the lake perch and one ordered the deep fried cod. There is also baked cod, walleye, blue gill and shrimp to choose from. The fish comes with your choice of - baked potato, waffle fries, pub fries, homemade potato chips, and some other things like cottage cheese etc. We had waffle fries, potato chips and the pub fries, which are beer pattered. You also get a small container of cole slaw and a white grocery store roll. There was a short wait for our fish, but the dining room was still packed. When it arrived, it was hot, tasty and a generous serving. We were all very satisfied with our dinner. I thought the homemade potato chips were excellent, they came out warm and crispy. The only thing I did not care for was the tartar sauce, can't place what it was, but had a funny taste to it to me. Everyone that waited on us was friendly and efficient without being intrusive. Wish this place was closer to my side of town, but we will definitely try it again. Get there early or expect to wait!
