The pancakes are huge, like the size of the plate. Definitely got my money&#39;s worth. Had to take half of it home.

Been coming here for years. The homemade bread is always fresh, and they have some interesting ice cream flavors. The staff is friendly, makes it a nice spot. It can get a bit busy on weekends, but that&#39;s to be expected.

Our server was really on top of things. She explained the specials well and suggested the scallops, which were spot-on. Just the right amount of attention, never felt rushed.

Been coming here for years. The lakeside view is still the best part, especially at sunset. Food&#39;s solid, though the steak was a touch overdone last time. Still a go-to spot.

My wife and I are vegan, and we keep coming back for the rotating specials. The flavors feel authentic, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. It&rsquo;s nice to have a spot where the menu actually changes.

Patty&#39;s feels like a hometown diner, super cozy. The staff are just friendly, no fuss. Coffee&#39;s always hot, which I appreciate on a random Tuesday. It&#39;s a warm spot, literally and vibe-wise.

First time here for my wife&#39;s BDay/Father&#39;s Day, I ordered Steak au poivre which was undercooked and lacked any peppercorns- the au poivre part mind you! Service was extremely slow for us and several other tables spoke of that as well. Prices were Litchfield - very expensive. Several friends had recommended the Grille previously but have since stopped going there due to meagre quality and quantity issues. I have 10 years of high end a la carte food service in both front/back of the house and do not recommend dining here.

I was really impressed by their strawberry Bellini mocktail. It had that perfect balance of sweet and tart, and it paired surprisingly well with the rich pasta I ordered. A great option when you&#39;re not drinking but still want something special with your meal.

The four cheese pasta was rich and creamy, just right. The steak was cooked exactly as ordered. But the real star was dessert&mdash;the salted caramel cheesecake was incredible. I&#39;d go back just for that slice.

Found this spot on Pratt Street. The Irish stew was pretty good, hearty and flavorful. Staff is friendly, they remembered my name from a previous visit. A bit on the pricier side, but a solid choice for a decent meal.

Came in near closing, staff didn&#39;t rush us at all. That was nice. The burger was the real story though. Patty was juicy, cheese was melted just right, and the brioche bun held up. Could&#39;ve used a bit more seasoning in the meat.

The French fry pizza was a fun idea, and the portion was huge for the price.

Been coming here for years, and the service is always on point. Even when they&#39;re slammed, the staff remembers my name and keeps the coffee coming. It&#39;s that consistency that keeps me coming back.

The boneless wings and shrimp are always solid. I like that the bar area is separate, so it&#39;s quieter than other chain restaurants.

The burger was juicy and flavorful. I had it with the French onion soup, which was fantastic. The booth seating was comfortable and made for a really nice, relaxed lunch.

Tried the calamari and grilled chicken sandwich for dinner. Calamari was light, not greasy at all. Sandwich was seasoned just right. Service was quick and friendly. Solid spot.
