Our Story
Deeply Rooted in Flavor and Community.
The story of Blue Lakes began with a simple passion for the art of frying. We wanted to create a place in Saginaw where the fish is always fresh and the chicken is always seasoned to perfection. Our journey started with a commitment to the "old-school" way of cooking—where every piece of fish is hand-battered and every wing is tossed with care.
Over the years, we have become a staple on E Genesee Ave because we treat our customers like family. We know that a great meal can turn a day around, which is why we take pride in the sizzle of our fryers and the smiles on our customers' faces. From our signature Blue Lakes fish to our mouth-watering chicken fry, our recipes are built on tradition and a love for the Saginaw community. We aren't just a restaurant; we are your neighbors, dedicated to serving the best comfort food in Michigan, one basket at a time.
