“No other is better!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2012

Not only is the food delicious but the staff, from owners to cooks in the kitchen to waiters and waitresses, know how to treat their customers. Everyone is important to them. If you want good food and to be treated as someone... More

“Best pizza in the Straits area”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 13, 2012

My wife and I recently took a summer trip up to Mackinaw City to check out the Straits area including Mackinac Island. This was by far our favorite dining stop. Pizza Palace represents one of those great mom and pop restaurants that takes a lot of pride not only in their product, but also in the way that they treat... More

“Antipasto salad to die for!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 8, 2012

Well, everyone is raving about the pizza and we agree. It's the only place we eat pizza in Mackinaw. AND they have lots of other wonderful food as well, I absolutely adore the antipasto salad and sometimes drop in and take one home for dinner. The meatballs are also fabulous! So don't just stop for pizza. Best of all are... More

Once again, one can't go wrong with this restaurant for quality food and top notch service. My friend and I, as we had done over the Friday of Memorial Day, ate here Friday evening before the Fall Bridge Run on Saturday morning. I had a meat calzone and he had the tuna salad. Our orders were taken quickly and food... More
