Relaxing dinner at a local place in the top of Door County. We had a special anniversary dinner that was great.. loved all the ways to eat the local specialty, whitefish, with a view. My favorite was the whitefish chowder. Good service. Clearly very popular. Not open to the public on weekends. My only criticism was that it was a little pricey.

One of many institutions in Door County. Located at the tip of the peninsula, it is the last stop before Washington Island. Even though they offer variety of items, you come here for whitefish, whether as smoked dip or broiled whole fish. I had old fashioned with whiskey although a true Wisconsinite might prefer with brandy. Their cherry pie is also excellent especially with vanilla ice cream.

My vegetables were burned and tasted that way. The panko whitefish was ok but nothing to write home about. I didn’t care for the fly that circled me regularly. The view…was that if a plain room with plain chairs and a strong desire for turnover.

The view is incredible! Chicken and wine were great. It’s a new menu that is a definite improvement. I used to go for the view, but the food is a draw on its own now!

Annual visit for the focused menu, great cocktails, good wine selection, and relaxed atmosphere. Bread was stale. Our usual choice of the smoked whitefish dip was disappointing this time around. It had a lot less smoked whitefish and was extremely peppery. Hard pass next time. They have a daily offering of seafood crudo at market price worth asking about. 3-4 interesting salad offerings I’d want to try.

We had a party of 12 on Thursday evening. It took about an hour for our table to be ready and that’s with a reservation. The bartender did an excellent job with drinks and was very personable. I will say that the food was incredible! The view was fantastic! We would have enjoyed the meal even more had the waitstaff been friendlier. I’m hoping that she was having a bad day. The place is worth a visit! The whitefish on the Rock was amazing. We will be back.

Beautiful restaurant in Gills Rock. We have been coming here for years. Great place for drinks and dinner at the top of the peninsula. At this point they are only open Wednesday and Thursday for Dinner.

My husband took me to Shoreline for my birthday. How can you not love the view when you’re watching the sun set over the bay? My husband and I are finally at the age where we prefer to split a meal. We got salmon covered in berry butter, sage risotto, and seasonal veggies. We had enough room left for dessert and I ordered key lime pie. When they brought it out, there was a lit candle in it!

I was unimpressed with the ribeye..very poor quality of meat. This is our 3rd time and the other two were impressive this year. Not so much .

Everything here was delicious and the portions are generous. The whitefish with cheese and sour cream was surprisingly tasty and I would definitely come back for just that. The appetizers and salads were great.
