May 15, 2026"Haida way has a rustic charm and friendly staff. Our server was timely and cheerful. We had the beef dip and stir-fry. Mine (the beef dip) had a fresh bun and just the right amount of beef. The fries were crisp with a perfect crunch on the outside. The dip was not as dark colored as I am used to seeing but had good flavor. The color threw me off thinking it was watered down but had great taste. The stir fry was so yummy my wife cleaned the whole plate with just the right mix of veggies. (some just fill the plate with bell peppers, this was not the case here). All in all I Would recomend the place. The table tops could use a refresh. Enjoyed the food and service! May 18 Tried some stir fry I got a chicken and shrimp stirfry. The noodles were spaghetti noodles that had flavor notes like they were cooked in Italian spice water. This threw my taste buds off. The sauce had what seemed like peanut oil and a sweet sauce so by having three flavor notes it just turned my stomach. I would remove this from the menu. I don't recomend these stirfrys."
