Ernie’s Clinton Township. If you’re not eating here, you need to ask yourself why? Amazing food fair prices I can get seafood fresher here then I can get it in Florida where I live Tom our waiter was amazing and fun. Every person was so happy with their food order. Not a bad thing to say I’ll let the photos speak for their self. They get the freshest seafood. This is on our must visit list when in town

I had been wanting to go to this place for quite some time now. While the interior was very nice and the calamari was excellent, our service was ridiculously slow. We were there for almost an hour and a half, and we ordered no extra food besides an appetizer. It took our table almost 30 minutes to order and get bread. My seafood fettuccine was decent but certainly not worth the wait or price. My boyfriend's burger and fries were very good. The bread they serve is good but needs more flavor, some seasoning or something. The ranch I asked for on the side was also no good. This place is also extremely expensive; $81 bill for a group of 2 people. Overall I'd say it wasn't worth the price and I was slightly disappointed, but the experience was still nice and I'd give it another chance.

Our server Ashley was great, very friendly and made good recommendations. Wife got the monk fish and loved it. I got the fish and chips and it was very good . Should have got the burger, it looked amazing. We'll definitely go back

Meli and Tom were the best!!! The service was Impeccable. I highly recommend “The nectar of the Gods” . That drink was the star of the show with delicious frozen sugar coated grapes (made by Tom). The spinach and artichoke dip was sooo good! For our entrees we had the Ernie burger, meatloaf and Bistro steak, which were all excellent. All in all it was one the best dining experiences.

Such good food and appetizers. Was very impressed. Our server was a super nice gentleman, named George, gave us a nice run down of the menu. We will definitely be going back, I suggest you go also

We went for the Easter Buffet, our first time going to Ernie’s, it was absolutely perfect! The food and dessert table were presented in such an appetizing way, very top notch and everything was delicious! The service was wonderful, everyone was so welcoming and kind. We are going back for Mother’s Day and will definitely make it out there for dinner. A new favorite spot!

First time exploring Ernie's. Ordered Saganaki, Calamari, Caesar salad and a Maui ... pizza. The pizza dough was almost raw, the Saganaki and Calamari was very salty. I love salty food but this was way too much. I don't think we will return to this place

I love when you find a great place to eat especially when you go with people not knowing what they like. We invited locals but they never been there. We are visiting the area because my son plays with a team (USPBL) Utica Unicorns at Jimmy John's Stadium. Service was on it and food portions for the price were amazing. Everyone liked what they ordered. French Dip Burger Pizza CesarSalad

Service was wonderful; she was friendly, refilled our drinks before they were empty, and routinely cleared dishes from our table so we had room! The pretzels and cheese appetizer was delish along with the complimentary warm bread. Would not recommend the chicken fajitas or pizza but I could eat the meatloaf every day. It does feel a bit over priced but I would definitely go back again. I also feel it's worth mentioning that the bathrooms were immaculate!!

Family friendly with high quality food and amazing service. Loved our bartender and servers. Oh boy is that prime rib french dip so good. Amazing fries and my in-laws swear the meatloaf the best they've ever had. Portions, value, location and ambience are solid! Staff move it up a notch. Great family owners.

Good food and service. The hot fudge cream puff sundae was great- 3 of us shared it. The chicken kabob was good and plentiful too.

Easter Buffet. It was so good and ran very smoothly. The only thing was their roast beef It was fatty and very rare. I think they should use a different meat company next year. Everything else was really good.

I wanted to go to Ernie's for years and finally got the opportunity. The food was good but I thought it was over priced for what you got. We got seated out on the patio (which looks like they roll down the sides and it becomes an indoor space during the winter months). It was really nice and the weather was beautiful so I enjoyed sitting out there. Our waitress was very good , very helpful and kept my water filled. They had a menu of specials and the prices for those meals were about twice as much as the meals on the regular menu, so I decided to stick with the regular menu. I got the Lemon Chicken and when they brought it I started to eat it and all of a sudden a bug came crawling out from under the chicken. I quickly called over the waitress who apologized took my meal away and said they would make me up a new one. The manager came out and apologized and said in the 20 years he's worked there that has never happened. I might've been turned off completely other than I was so hungry I couldn't wait to get another plate of food without a bug in it!! My friend ordered the fish and chips and he said the french fries were salted way too much. He gave me a couple of french fries to try and I literally had to dust off the salt before I could eat it. My placemat was covered with salt from dusting off one french fry. It was crazy!! Other than that, he enjoyed his coleslaw and the fish he said was cod and it was very good. The thing is, it was fish and chips. Why did it have to cost 18.95 when you probably can get the same thing across the street at a family restaurant for 9.95. The bread was good and I enjoyed the breeze from sitting in a covered patio area, but I don't know if I would go back for the prices they charge.

To my husband here for Father's Day yesterday. Everything was quite nice....great wine, huge onion rings, lovely calamari and I'm taking my entrée to lunch today. Also, great and prompt service. I would have had a slice of cake, but it was bigger than my head. Maybe next time ...definitely coming back tho.

You've got to ask yourself why a place that size with a nice size patio would be dead on a Friday evening. The bar area was filthy and whoever was behind the bar seemed like they were tossed back there with zero experience. The tall dark haired guy who kept coming from the back would cater to two of the four other people who were at the bar and then walk back to the kitchen. Couldn't tell you how the food was because there was no way I was eating there considering the cleanliness of the bar.

If you are looking for a nice patio area for dining or drinks, consider Ernie's. They have a huge covered and uncovered patio and banquet room that you can reserve for private parties. They also have a nice covered bar area with roll up garage doors and multiple televisions so you can watch the game. The inside portion of the restaurant features nice decor and plenty of seating. It also has a massive indoor bar area. The smells from the kitchen made me drool as I walked by in my way to the restroom. I imagine this restaurant is a great place for a romantic dinner. Nice white linen tablecloths and place settings. They also have a wine room you can reserve that features more than 1200 bottles of wines from around the world. Their sign says they are a mediterranean restaurant but the bar and patio menu is american food like steak, pastas, burgers, salads, chicken wings, pizzas, and daily fresh seafood etc. They have great food specials, even a $20 all you can eat fried chicken dinner in Sunday's and Prime Rib Thursday's. They have quite a list of delicious sounding desserts, a specialty cocktail menu, and daily food specials They also offer a happy hour menu. We had a burger and a pizza and then tried the apple pie and rice pudding. My husband loves the burger which was a mix of different meats. My pizza was detroit style and very good with a nice mix of fresh tomatoes, basil, wisconsin cheese and balsamic vinegar. The sauce was to die for. My apple pie was a bit more tart than I prefer but it was still good. The vanilla ice cream cut the tartness. My husband loved the rice pudding and said it reminded him of his mother's. Prices are a bit high $12 burger and $15 pizza. Quality of food is great though. We had a perfect meal with great ambience and highly recommend this restaurant. We will definitely stop by again.

We attended the Thanksgiving buffet 2024 and had the absolute worst service I've ever had. We had to get our own silverware and water, the waitress was busy talking to one table the entire time and completely ignored our requests for additional napkins and refills on water, the food was average and tepid at best. To get to the Buffet line you had to make your way through the throngs of people waiting to be seated standing in the way. The waitress never cleared the table and we had to ask the manager to just obtain the bill. We will never be back.

What happened to the old GOOD Ernie's? Back when the Mediterranean Room was open Ernie's was really good. Ever since they closed it, changed the menu and now only have the bar open it's horrible! BRING BACK the old menu and reopen the Mediterranean Room, it'll never survive like this!

Great place to go if you feel like you missed out on catching COVID 19. It seems clear that the owner of this establishment cares far more about his finances than the health of the general public. The owner is suing the state, claiming lost revenue during the pandemic. Making a big deal of the lawsuit on TV and hosting a press conference for an airing of grievances that would make Frank Constanza proud. Too bad he can't sue the state over lost revenue caused by years of 1 star Yelp reviews. They are pretty easy to find and definitely predate 2020. It seems like this is a far more likely culprit for the current state of his business than the pandemic. Don't know what the concern about 25% max capacity limit is....look at the photos, doesn't seem like this place approached that number, even in the best of times. I've gone out of my way to support local restaurants throughout this horrible situation. Ernie's will not be one of them.

First, no idea why it's called "Mediterranean Room" but then I have only been there three times and two were events not menu ordering. Ok, so we went for thanksgiving dinner and I can only call it a shit show. They clearly overbooked, we didn't get our table until 30 minutes after our reservation and the best part....the split our group into two separate tables-Happy Thanksgiving. It was buffet which I don't do so I really don't know what the food line looked like, my wife made my plate-don't judge. The turkey seemed to be processed but was okay. Let me go to the stuffing, my family and my wife's family are stuffing maestros so I rarely eat restaurant stuffing but again, the wife made my plate. That stuffing, when compared to three grandma's and two mothers stuffings that I love, was the best stuffing I have ever eaten. The waitress said it was made on-site and gave me some to take home. The service was pretty good, overall the place was a madhouse but the servers really did keep it together and provided service with a smile. I started out surly do to the wait and the two table scenario but I was in better cheer by the time we left and that was totally due to the waitstaff.

Very disappointed! I agree with the other review, our 1st clue should have been the near empty parking lot on a Friday night. The food was mediocre at best and did not match the price tag. This is a bar and grill trying to be a nice restaurant. What Mediterranean restaurant doesn't serve pita or fresh thickness bread with saganaki? The small loaves they did serve were probably the best part of the meal.

Egads! A hard pass on returning to this place. So many things wrong, ugh. 1st and foremost - food safety! Then prices! Then lies! Then ambiance. Bad enough I had to report them to the Health Dept. Walk up to the place at 4 pm, and it looks closed. I proceed to walk past 2 men putting up St. Patrick's decorations, and one grunted at me "Um, do you need help?" - Why yes Mr. Grumpy Pants, I'm looking to partake in your Happy Hour. He points me to the bar. Ambiance I arrive in the bar and sit in a corner booth. I am then accosted with 2 different songs (yes - they had a jukebox playing 1 song, and another song belting out from somewhere else) then 3 different TV stations with their volume turned all the way up. I felt like it was going to set me into seizing, it was so overwhelming. I complained to my server, and she said it bothers them too, but that is how management likes it. Lies I ask to see the happy hour menu, and my server says there isn't one. I said that we had called the night before and confirmed happy hour is from 4-6, and there is a snip-it on the bar menu that says "Happy Hour Specials from 4-6". My server goes and talks to the bartender and comes back and says $3.50 Jack, Stoli & Bacardi. I said, shots? Drinks? Can I get a Stoli Martini? What about food specials. Yes, yes, No & No is what I got in return. What? No food specials? No thank you. I asked for a water while I waited, and my server brought me one from the bar. I tasted it, and almost gagged. I asked why can't I have a bottle/carafe that I see at other tables? She said it's because management doesn't like/allow those to be served in the bar area. So I moved to the dining area to escape the acoustic onslaught, the gross water, and virtually non-existent happy hour menu. Food Safety In the dining area, they have a big butcher block with all sorts of vegetables and a bowl of Feta cheese in liquid. I wondered what that was for. Found out when I saw the table next to me order a salad, someone came out from the back and started cutting stuff up with their bare hands. This is against the food code! Plus they didn't even wash their hands either. Gross! Then they top the salad with this room temperature Feta cheese. I was there for 4 hrs - catching up with a dear friend - and not once did I see anyone try to keep the Feta cold, clean the butcher block, clean their hands, or throw out the warm Feta. Disgusting! Price I warned my friend not to get anything with Feta on it, so we got a flat bread and 3 martinis each, and our bill was $80 before tip! We each spent almost $50 on 3 drinks and a piece of pizza. What a rip off. Don't go here.

We made reservations for Thanksgiving dinner at Ernie's, and I must say, it did not live up to the hype. I read Cinthia's review below, and I am just going to echo her sentiments. We were very underwhelmed with our experience. As a Thanksgiving dinner, I expect delicious turkey. I actually found that the turkey was disgusting. I wasn't alone. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when everyone at our table took a bite of their turkey - we all just looked around, rolled our eyes, and forced the bite down the hatch. That was the only bite of turkey that I took that day. In fact, I thought that the ham was pretty terrible as well. Honestly, I would have rather given up my entire day to cook the dinner myself, I would have rather saved LOTS of money, and actually enjoyed the food when I ate it. Also, it sucked that there wasn't a changing table in the men's restroom.

We just got carryout from here tonight. They have got it DOWN. I ordered the ribs. They were amazing. Fall off the bone and so flavorful. The sauce was a perfect compliment. The coleslaw was some of the best I have ever had. We were starving, so I didn't get a picture before...but you can see that I thoroughly enjoyed it!

We choose to come here out of sheer convenience. It is located right next to the hospital, which makes it a fairly central location. Anyone sti working can pop over at any time to meet our group. They have always accommodated our groups even when larger than expected. The service is so so.... It seems to be hit or miss. Obviously, the bigger the group the more of an issue it can be. We had a group of about 11 this night. Heather was spot on with the service tonight. Very quick and attentive. She even brought our a pitcher of ice tea for someone in our group. The food is always very good. It is a bit overpriced in my opinion. They try to cater to a more upscale group, however they aren't in an upscale area. For a while it was a cougar market in the evenings. That's where everyone over 45 went to hook up. Not sure that's still the case. It's a perfect spot for parties though. There's a very nice patio and a nice screened in room as well. There's also a banquet hall in back where I have gone for various functions. Parking lot is large but full of pot holes. I only ordered a soda at this visit. I was kind of surprised they didn't just comp it. $2.54 ...I could have gotten a happy hour beer for that! Probably cost them $.04 to give to me. Stuff like that is just good customer service, particularly for regulars.... Just my opinion.

Margherita pizza was delicious. We also ordered the Tuscan chicken and chicken shish kabob and the village salad. They were all amazing. My cousin slurped her noodles. Generous portions. Service was awesome. Atmosphere was very romantic felt like I was in Greece and our server Jonah was the best. Ask for Jonah!

I am sad that this place has deteriorated in service, style and food. This year it was just plain sad! We have been coming here for the last 4 or 5 years for Thanksgiving dinner. I was super excited about our reservation! Except they didn't live up to previous years. Staff left a lot to be desired the food was cold, the ham was almost a greenish bluish color, the turkey was meh. They rushed it for sure! No decorations, no classy festive feels! People showed up in sweat pants and baseball caps. I don't know,I used to like Ernies because of the classy feel when it's all decorated and festive for the holidays...well this year it felt like it was open season on a free for all Buffett! A dress code should absolutely be required especially for a holiday. I think this year Ernies blew it with trying to maximize their profits from previous years! QUALITY NOT QUANTITY when will businesses get that? Ugh, sadly this year is my last year for Ernie's on Thanksgiving! For the price, and the tip for a subpar server to bring you water um no thanks! Our server made a killing from our large party on tips, for basically bringing us water. Eye roll... UPDATE: Since so many of my fellow Yelpers advised me to call and let management know, I did. I let them know I was NOT INTERESTED in a comped meal nor was I interested in a refund. I was looking to simply share my disappointment. The manager I spoke to basically told me that NO ONE has made claims like mine basically this man invalidated my opinion and review. I was not taken seriously,he also told me the owner would be calling me, I have yet to hear from anyone.

About a little over a week ago we were just up the street from Ernie's and decided we would give them a try. We had an appointment somewhere so we needed to make sure there wasn't a long wait. So we called and asked if there was a wait. "Just two people? Yeah we can get yas seated." Ok so 3 minutes later we walk in and she says "go ahead and sit at the bar for a moment and I'll let you know when the table is ready". I was a little miffed by that but sat at the bar to be patient. However 30 minutes went by until we got seated. I'd also like to mention how odd the bar area is. As shown in the picture there are several jars that are all sitting around the end of the bar like there was supposed to be this big display or something. Except they were all empty. Totally empty. It looked really stupid and felt like the bar area was not supposed to be open. But indeed they had a few tables in there with customers at them. So, we finally get sat and I inform the server the time that we needed to be somewhere so as not to waste time getting drinks, leave and come back for the order (especially because we still had our drinks from the bar). We ordered the crab cakes to split. At the same time we also put our main course order in. Thankfully the crab cakes came out soon but unfortunately were not great, but no complaints. At this point the plate never got cleared and we didn't see the server but maybe once. Another 40 minutes went by without anything coming to the table. It took me nearly having a fit just to flag her down to tell her that we needed to go. All of a sudden the manager comes out with plates. I told him we needed to go. He replies "Sorry, I just found out" then asks if we still want it. I just had to look at him with astonishment and say "We have to leave right now so no." Then it takes the server another while to even get back with the bill and we could see her all the whole time not even attempting to be quick about it. Thank goodness we at least had a few bites of crab cakes to hold us over until later that evening after the appointment or else I would have probably wrote some lengthy, overly wordy tirade about the whole experience on Yelp. Oops.

Gonna go with I don't know how they stay in business. A HUGE place with very few patrons. The patio had tons of folded up tables. I was drinks only, with a friend. Just seems to me ,place has an odd vibe. Bar has a ton Of seats, yet when I arrived, only person there. Had to borrow? A waitress from elsewhere. $5 for a draft beer.

I came the other day by myself so excited to eat out even if it's on a patio I ordered the white fish I got fries I got a cup of clam chowder and an ice tea I brought most of it home because I was embarrassed to try to eat there I've never had so many bones in my fish in my life I've had whitefish in mini mini restaurants and I could barely eat this the fries were horrible the only good thing was the soup and my iced tea and the real issue was that it cost me $37 for me to have a meal that doesn't include the tip I walked out of there $45 later with horrible fish and bad frys I'm embarrassed for the restaurant because I know it's better than that and I'm angry that the one time I can actually go out and enjoy a meal this is what I received

Excellent food! We had the calamari for an appetizer and their salads are SO delicious, plus they had banana cream pie and we could've ordered and ate the whole pie it was so delicious. They have a nice outdoor patio and atmosphere (their bar reminds me of vacations), and they are so welcoming. Can't wait to go back for a cocktail and dinner!

Service was awful! We asked for a wine list 4 Times, finally my husband went to the hostess stand and get one. We ordered wine and had finished dinner and still had no wine. The food was ok, the salmon was over cooked. We would have ordered more drinks and dessert if the service wasn't so bad.

I ordered the chicken kebob which I have had previously. The first time the tzatziki sauce was delicious. This time it was clearly spoiled. I alerted our server and asked that she let the kitchen know. My husband ordered one of the fish specials and it said it came with a side but no sides were listed on any menu. We asked our server what the sides were to choose from. She listed many and my husband settled on onion rings. But when our bill came they charged us for the onion rings. When we inquired why why she said they were an up charge item. Never at any point did she mention that when she listed all of the sides. My husband would not have ordered the onion rings if he knew they were not included with the meal as stated. Our server did nothing to rectify the situation, so I asked for the manager. I told him about the spoiled tzatziki and about not being told that onion rings were not an included side. All he did was apologize and said he would make it right next time. I don't know why they think someone would come back after all that. If you care about customers you make it right immediately.

The food was excellent, unfortunately the service was less than desired. I know restaurants are short staffed but they were not short staffed last night. Our waiter was just that awful. No hustle & not a care. He was absent most the time doing who knows what. One of the waitresses felt bad for us & tried to take our drink order but I think the waiter got mad & she backed off. As we were finishing our meal, one of the bus boys started cleaning off the table next to us & put the dirty dishes on our table while he continued to stack dishes on top of them. Ummm...excuse me! We are still sitting here. I don't want someone else's half eaten plates on my table. It's been 10+ years since we dined at Ernie's & it will be another 10+ before we go back. It's too bad because the food was really good.

This was a wonderful buffet. Mojito's, mimosas, magically delicious! No magic really but, full service, grilled vegies, roast beef w real horseradish, lots of deliciousness and worth every penny of $25.95 plus drinks! Come and get it and pace yourselves for a full 5 course meal!!

I am skeptical of restaurants in the midwest (I'd tell you why but it would traumatize you). However, I was pleasantly surprised when I went to Ernie's with a friend of mine. The food was great and our waitress was wonderful. She had an answer for every question we asked her, and was just very pleasant. I found the food to be great (I'm from New York so I can be hard to please) which was quite pleasantly surprising. I was not a fan of the space itself. It seems like alot of wasted space and that they could do so much more with it. It's hard to get a feel for what kind of establishment they want to be. Overall though, I liked it, and when I am in Michigan again, I'll be back.

I couldn't believe the horrible service we received here. Asked for a drink, never got it. Asked for no cheese on the hamburger, came with cheese. Sent it back, and it came out where you could tell it was picked off. Waiter was extremely loud and forgetful. Couldn't believe the horrible quality.

We ordered Thanksgiving dinner here, we picked it up and it was wonderful! With that being said we figured we would try it for dinner...we my husband asked for his particular item rare and it was over-cooked..they took it back and in 1 minute had the same thing rare, but cold...my dinner was fine, but for the money it was not worth it at all! I'll stick to the Brewery..

Loved this place. They started off with this amazing delicious bread followed by a delicious chicken and rice soup and followed by my amazing entrée of Tuscan chicken. I don't know how this place doesn't have a higher rating? I strongly recommend this restaurant.

Everything I've tried at Ernies has been consistently excellent. Often I go to a restaurant and the entree will be good but one or more of the sides will be just okay. Ernies is just great across the board. They also have a nice amount of space between tables and a feeling of intimacy or privacy for lack of better words. They also have a nice bar in contrast with friendly and quick bartenders. I recommend this place 100% for any occasion.

We celebrated my Boyfriend's Birthday here ( along with 24 friends) and it was FANTASTIC!!! Jay( floor manager) was more than accommodating setting everything up, the staff was great and there was not one complaint from any of my guests about the food. It was amazing, and we can be a tough crowd to please. Highly recommend Ernies for a nice night out or a to celebrate any occasion for a large group!

I was with a group of 30+ people and we were crammed in 1/2 the dining room like sardines. The seating was so uncomfortable my wife and I had leg cramps all night. Looking at the menu I asked if they could substitute a red sauce for the alfredo sauce on the seafood linguine and was told that no substitutions were allowed so I ordered something else. I really wanted the linguine but am lactose intolerant so that was the end of that. The server was quick, efficient, and gave excellent service. My wife and I will not be returning because of the food and seating conditions.

I had my wedding reception in the Master Hall, which was amazing. The ambient light on the ceiling and wood work on the bar was immaculate, it really set the mood for our reception. The food selection was superb, we were given a variety of dishes to choose from for our guests - none of them were the "usual" expected catering dishes. The food wow-ed our guests and a year later they are still talking about how great the herbed potatoes in butter were! I wish I could have eaten more that day, but I was just too busy!!! They also made food specifically for the children, which I appreciated very much. My work also uses Ernie's catering for our events and parties, everyone in the office raves about how good it is and actually looks forward to the next event with their catering! They come to our office and set it up, and provide white-jacket service to host the buffet table. I went back to try out their Mediterranean room and the bar, this place has such a great atmosphere and you definitely get what you pay for. Sometimes you can rack up a nice bill, but it is also possible to eat well without spending a fortune here. They have a nice food and alcoholic beverage selection as well. I love that they serve complimentary FRESH bread & different dips/spreads. My experiences at Ernie's was outstanding, and I cannot WAIT to go back!!! BTW - Check out their coupons on the Save On Everything website to score great deals on their awesome food. -- http://www.saveoneverything.com/merchant/Ernies-Mediterranean-Room/735/

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC (and I meant to put it in all caps). Ernie's catered an event for us, the food, staff and overall operation made it wonderful. We had to re-schedule the date 3 times because of COVID, but they didn't let us down. COVID protocols taken, masks, spacing, sanitization. The staff did such a great job of making everyone feel welcome & special despite difficult times. Everything was set up perfectly. The food was plentiful and very tasty. Everyone loved the food! I would not hesitate to use them again. Thoroughly a very experienced staff and ownership made this a GREAT event for our family and friends and we Thank You.

Looking for Milfs or Cougars? Well this is the place you want to be. This seems to be the singles bar for wealthy thirtysomethings. Just because you are not a thirtysomething or wealty doesn't mean that you wont find someone special for the night.... trust me... uh... my friends have told me.. The decor is nice for a large open atmosphere. It is not quite a club and not quite a bar, it is a bit in between with a restaurant attached (like many places in the area). They have live music and dance floors sometimes, other times it is like being at a martini bar. Though I am not a big fan of this place, many of my friends are huge fans. I liken it to a Jack's on the Water, but not on the water or as fun... But I do have to say, this place definitely reminds me of Michigan.

Six of us went for the Mothers Day buffet and were neither impressed nor significantly disappointed. The selection of the buffet seemed to have gown down slightly from previous years but what they did have tasted pretty good. The mimosas were awful, 95% orange juice with tons of pulp. The cod and grape leaves were fantastic, and the chicken was fine but slightly dry. There were what seemed like a million desserts to choose from but again they all rated about a 3. As far as service went the waitress was fine but not friendly in any way. The bussing staff was amazing and would take your plate away almost as soon as you set your fork down. All in all we will probably give this place another shot next year but hope they expand their selection and quality!

One of the best things about Ernies: their complimentary, homemade pita bread, served with roasted garlic, EVOO, olives and radishes. Outstanding! Their prime rib is amazing and their thin crust pizzette was very tasty. I also enjoy their Mediterranean salad. On Valentine's Day 2010 my husband and I shared a lobster dinner to die for. Unfortunately, there are not an abundance of entrees that pique my interest so I usually order the same thing. Ernie's bar area is well known as a cougar pick-up spot. My husband and I have finished our evening by having a drink in the bar on a couple of occasions. It's a little creepy seeing the older men ogle the middle aged women, but everyone seems to be having a good time.
