Good food, service was good, pricing was fair and a nice view of the bridge and river. Have been here a few times and would continue to come back.

We have come to this restaurant many times in the past, but it's been a while since my last review. Today the menu has changed and they no longer have their macaroni and cheese listed. The waiter said that I can still get it which we were happy about. We love the yellow barbecue sauce as it is one of a kind. They were kind of slow, but we still waited almost 45 minutes for our food. If you don't mind the wait, the food is overall pretty good. They also now have an impossible burger option that we will have to try next time. We love that they have several vegetarian options on their menu. I hope they keep them coming. They have nicely decorated for the holidays and the ambience is always warm and comforting. They usually have their fireplace going. Stop if you're looking for a nice view of the water and casual style atmosphere for dining.

We stayed at place connected. Came over for loaded nachos for night snack then their breakfast buffet the next morning. Everything was hot and clean. Enjoyed the visit and food.

A lunch date with a view. Haven't been this way in many a years. First things first. This is place is the former location of the Thomas Edison Inn, in the shadows of the Blue Water bridge that connects the USA to Canada. Totally redone, like leveled and rebuilt, more modern, not quaint. We had a great table over looking the water to watch the boats go by, and what a beautiful view Our server Sean (could have been Shawn) was outstanding and so was the food. Out of the four of us, three of us all had the Chicken Wrap, which was freshly done and delicious. Our forth person did a Ceaser Salad which he could not finish, and took home the rest. Great service and excellent food. Food prices were in line with other restaurants that dont have a view. Highly recommend

WOW! Freighters is back and better than ever! We have stayed at the doubletree over a dozen times while visiting the blue water area and always dined at freighters. It was always "just okay", but it's a completely different story now. Such a delicious revamp of their menu, food quality, and service level. I am so happily surprised with our meal tonight. Cassie, our server, was perfect! So professional and hospitable. The food was also...perfect. Same with the cocktails. Had an awesome Apple Butter Old Fashioned. We split the deviled eggs for an app, really unique and tasty flavor. I had the Michigan salad as a side salad, fresh and tasty. My meal was the gnocchi - UNREAL. So savory & well prepared. Excited to dine here again tmrw night, beautiful views on the water and the weather was perfect.

Well, if not for the outside patio, the interior of this place is quite dark and depressing. But the patio was lovely, so that is where we sat on a beautiful afternoon. The food was very good, as well as the service. I would drive an hour again for the salad I had - it was delicious - it had arugula/spinach with goat cheese, beets, and candied pistachios, topped with perfectly cooked steak. I loved every bite. The deviled egg app was ok, and I'm not sure where the prosciutto crisps were that were supposed to be on it, but $12 for 3 eggs felt a little overpriced for what we got. The Bloody Mary was served spicy as I had requested, and I appreciate that they didn't use a charcuterie's worth of stuff for a garnish. An olive and pickle were all that was needed. Cheers! I'll be back.

Fantastic venue to see ships going down the river on the way through the Great Lakes, ordered Fish Tacos Ambient feeling good.

Great view of the river and the Blue Water Bridge. There is indoor and outdoor seating, and this restaurant is connected to a Hilton.Hotel with the same beautiful view. I had a salmon burger, and it was very tasty and came with their own homemade chips My friend had the fish and chips dinner which is made with cod and comes with waffle fries, and he said it had homemade tartar sauce We both liked our food very much and the view was very entertaining. Our service was good and the prices were reasonable.
