Ya know, it's funny. I can't even taste the difference in most common fish.
Weyands Fishery on Biddle Avenue [[Jefferson Avenue) in Wyandotte. Carry out only.
Sindbads or Mr. Pauls.
Waves. , in St.Clair Shores. All you can eat. 3 or 4 days of the week. I know Tues and Thurs for sure. Delicious!
Pat O'Briens in St Clair Shores. Mmmmmmmmmmm!
Mr. Pauls.Don't forget the Cesar salad.
I will second SCS-Scooter choice of Pat O'Briens. I am attaching their link http://www.patobriensbar.com for your convenience. Don't forget to try their O'Briens Red w/ your meal.
Was once told by a bartender at Tom's Oyster Bar, which has decent perch, that most of it comes from Lake Winnipeg now because the Great Lakes were overfished.
If Asian Carp get into the Great Lakes there won't be any fish worth eating from any of of them.
I have always heard the Ivanhoe Cafe has awesome perch. http://ivanhoecafe-pyc.com/
I personally think Chick's on W. Warren in Detroit has very good perch. Maybe just Friday nights though. It's a great dive with decent food.
Mr. Paul's, hands down

When you're at the Ivanhoe, you will always see our security people around watching both you and your vehicle for a completely safe and worry free visit.
Duffys in Amerstberg Canada is great, Where is Mr. Pauls ?

Sorry to say, but it now appears that it is when, not if.Quote:

I like the Clawson Steakhouse, in Clawson.
Rattlesnake Club and Steve and Rocky's in Novi is the best I've had.
I third Pat O'Brien's. I also had an excellent perch dinner at the Caucus Club.
Mr. Paul's is on Groesbeck near 12 Mile in Roseville.
Not in Detroit but Omalley's Galley up in Fenton has great Perch and other fresh fish as well including Walleye.
i second ivanhoe's in hamtramck. the polish yacht club!
Ivanhoe Cafe is in Detroit on Joseph Campau.
For the Oakland County folks, Highland House on M-59 in Highland serves perch during Lent. The best!
Sibley Gardens on Jefferson in Trenton
I did not even think of Highland House, but I second it! There perch is great.
Don't forget their homemade breadsticks!Quote:

Ivanhoes isn't as good as it used to be.
Not in Detroit, but the best perch in the world, Duffy's of Amhearstberg. Eat in the bar, not the resturant. Same food, better price.

Scotty's is the best locally, the best ever is in the UP, in Brimley. Wilcox Restaurant.
I forgot about Duffy's. We used to take the boat over and have a late lunch...ahhh, the good old days.
Franks Cafe.
3852 6th Street
Wyandotte, MI 48192
[[734) 283-4660
Ahhh, but the real question is: who serves good, BONELESS perch? I'm not much for all those picks.
Best perch I ever had was at Pinky's. Bartender there knew how to pour too - every drink was a double. I walked out of there bombed a few times.
Well the best perch is not at the David Whitney. When I was there last year we went and my perch was under cooked and cold. I expected better from a high end resturant,.
maybe we should all try lake st. clair. the ice fishermen are out there in droves
There's a restaurant in the David Whitney Building?Quote:

A long time ago, sure, but who knows? Maybe the place is still there, and they still do it.
Don't be mad at me when I admit that my brother and I used to dip it in ketchup. I would use tartar sauce, now, but it doesn't matter; the stuff was terrific, even sans condiment.
Prushs on Eureka in Wyandotte.
The Red Horse Inn in Carleton had great perch the night we tried it. As good as up north.
During Lent. ST. Veronicas in Eastpointe has a great perch dinner. Plus alot of side dishes. It's a must!
