Mahle's And Lounge - Westlake

Always a great experience the food and staff are wonderful.

It was one of the best dining experiences we have ever had. There was a sign on the door about being short staffed, so please be patient. We expected a long wait. We had no wait. Our server was charming, funny, and really engaging. We had calamari, and both of us had french onion soup, and they were fantastic. My wife had rib-eye, which was cooked perfectly, medium rare. I had a seafood platter with lobster tail, scallops, and shrimp, which the server recommended. Everything was served in perfect time and was great. All that food came to only 85.00. We were shocked at the incredibly affordable options. There was a table of 6 near us, and one of the couples were celebrating their 61st wedding anniversary. Another table had a family celebrating their Moms birthday. The place had a warming, family feel about it. It seemed like most knew each other, and they all chatted as they left. I thoroughly enjoyed our stop here on the way to South Bend. It made a hotel reservation blunder seem not so bad.

Food was beyond good. Wide variety, from fresh fish to ribs to Italian. They have won an award for their prime rib. Cooked exactly as I ordered, and a very tender high end piece of meat. Atmosphere was old school, with very well trained waiters and waitresses, who brought out our food within 15 minutes of ordering, and the owner greets you at the front door within 30 seconds of walking in,and great deserts. Here for 1 week, ate there 3 times.

Fabulous spot! If you're in the mood for it, chances are, they have it!

Had an enjoyable meal at this old school restaurant. The menu has very readonably priced full steak and seafood menu. The staff was very attentive. We were there on a Wednesday evening and the restaurant was very busy. My filet was done to specifications and my husband had a good piece of salmon.
