    Okay, so...the Big Fish.  This is one of those fascinating Yelp situations, where you gotta figure out what you're rating.  The food is only three stars, but - YOU'RE EATING NEXT TO A GIANT FISH, so that gives you the extra star for atmosphere, right there.

    Even if you never stop to eat here, you gotta stop and take a picture of that fish.

    So, once again, let me be clear on this: the food is absolutely acceptable, and certainly edible, but it is not four-star food.  But seriously, how high are your standards for cuisine gonna be in the middle of nowhere, where the next closest joint is probably in Cass Lake, and likely isn't any better?  The fare runs to standard American, though surprisingly the fish they served was not local walleye.  They sell "pig wings" which are basically rib tips slathered in bbq/wing sauce, which are actually pretty good.   And they do carry the standard assortment of alcohols, including local-ish beers.  Everything is decent enough.

    I've actually been told their salad bar is really good, though they only have it on weekends.  

    The atmosphere is rustic north woods, with photos of fish that locals have caught on one wall, stuffed trophy animals of assorted kinds posted around, etc.  (oddly, the mounted bear on the wall is not of the locally found American Black Bear species, but is a Sun Bear, found in Southeast Asia - ??).

    There are also cabins associated with the place, and they look real nice - though to be honest, i didn't go inside any of 'em.

    So, basically:
    - Totally worth stopping by if you're looking for a place to eat locally
    - Food is solid, though not inspired.
    - There's a giant freakin' fish outside, which is pretty damn cool.
