Spending time with friends and family is something that is so important to me. I love spending time with loved ones from any state, city, or neighborhood. It is a tough thing to do with work, running, work events, and all the random things that being an adult (‘adulting’ as the kids call it) includes. I still hang out with college friends, cousins that were friends when I was 5 and even friends as far back as middle school.
That was exactly my plan when I recently visited Patrick’s Grille in Michigan City with a friend that I have known for years. 22 years to be exact! Let me tell you, Patrick’s delivered. From the moment we walked into the beautiful setting I knew it would be a great time. The service was amazing. Our server was attentive, sweet, and fun. She had conversations with us about food and wine, and she made everyone feel great.
Obviously, the company was great but let’s get to the food. I decided to take a risk! I ordered the oyster shooters which are raw oysters with all the dressings and was amazed at the presentation. Someone also ordered Saganaki (flaming cheese) which looked beautiful and was an amazing table side presentation. My husband loves prime rib so his ears perked when he heard that was the evening's special. I chose the fish special with couscous, as did my friend, and we were not disappointed. The quality of the fish and the steak was incredible, the sides were amazing, and we were all stuffed. My husband talked about that meal for the entire next day.
Drinks: amazing. Food: incredible. Service: outstanding. Overall evening: the best in quite some time. I am already thinking I need to go back soon, maybe today for lunch? I wonder if I can get there this week? I already know that I‘ll be making more time for Patrick’s Grille in my future just as I make time for all my loved ones, and Patrick’s Grille is a new loved one in my life!
