Miijim
Miijim, is a special place where they blend local Native American dishes with a touch of French style. The restaurant is on Madeline Island, also known as Mooningwanekaaning, named by the Ojibwe people who first lived here. At Miijim, they're all about celebrating the tastes and traditions of the Ojibwe.
The menu is full of exciting dishes. They cook with meats like deer, elk, and rabbit and mix them with wild foods from the island like mushrooms, ramps, chaga, and bergamot. The menu changes with the seasons, using what local farmers and gatherers find.
James Beard nominated ('24) chef, Bryce Stevenson, comes from the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa. He's not just a chef; he's part of a movement that's bringing Native American cooking into the spotlight.
Visiting Miijim is about more than just eating. They offer a warm and friendly space, filled with art from local Indigenous artists. You'll hear lively music and can enjoy local beers and great French wines. Come to Miijim for a meal that shares the story and spirit of the Ojibwe people.
