What a find! We were looking for a special place to celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary and Chez Jude delivered! The reviews are right on. A welcoming yellow house with a lovely porch (where we decided to have our dinner) and a beautiful view of the Grand Marais Harbor, being greeted by the Chef owner, well detailed descriptions of the... more

After being told there was a 50 minute wait across the street at the Angry Trout, we headed to Chez Jude for a fantastic meal. The fresh salad was wonderful with a meyer lemon- thyme dressing.
