A bit of History
Karl’s Steak House was built and operated by Karl Stierle. He and his wife, Margaret, came to the Lakes Region from New York around 1951, when they purchased the old Shore Diner from Gerard "Jerry" LaPointe. (The Shore Diner was located on Union Avenue where the BK building is today) He was originally from Germany. Stierle sold the Shore Diner to Albert and Agnes LaCroix around 1957 and then built the restaurant at the Weirs.
