A highly underrated joint for grabbing quick tasty meals. This offers service matching the speed and convenience of fast food with the quality and freshness to rival much finer dining. Meat was tender, vegetables fresh and flavorful, and our server was chipper and kind. Definitely will be back if I’m in the area again.

Looks like an old car fix it garage turned into a restaurant. Food is A. Clean place, can eat outside and enjoy the bay. Quick on the food to you. Ate there twice, because we enjoyed it!

Excellent Whitefish Burrito Bowls and Chicken Fajitas. Whitefish was fresh on the grill.... She even joked about having to holler the order to throw it on. Salsa sauce was unique and excellent. In fact, as the buzzer went off, the young lady was standing in front of us with the food. Great service and will definitely stop by again in our next trip to the Upper Peninsula. Yum yum! If you guys ever add desserts to the menu, I would love to order them! The view from the patio was exceptional and we could also hear live music from the bar on the beach.

Border Grill is great, especially for how remote Munising and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan can be for eating out. The food is pretty good, and it's affordable. The portions are nice too, not too much but not something that leaves you wanting for what you'd expect to receive. It's a good stop. Thank you employees at Border Grill!!

Ordered the Fish Tacos and the Brisket Burrito, a bit overpriced but expected in this area. There was a bit of a wait, but the food was great!
