The HobNob has been around for a very long time. It opened on August 11, 1954 and it has been running as a Supper Club ever since. The decor is what you would expect of a 50's style steak house, but what really is amazing is the view of Lake Michigan.
The food is well prepared and the service is excellent. All dinners served with your choice of a tossed salad or spinach salad, and soup,
choice of potatoes, and bread basket. This evening my wife ordered the Crab Gratin Mushrooms appetizer. The taste was really good, but the mushrooms were small and you only got 4. I wish we had ordered the crab cakes, though. Next time we will.
For a main course I had the Prime Rib "Regular Cut". I ordered a side of horseradish sauce and Bearnaise. I also had a backed potato, it was excellent.
My wife had shrimp de jonghe which she really enjoyed.
We thought the prices were a little high for the way the economy is, but we had a nice evening and the restaurant had a decent crowd. Also, the wine pours were small, we would recomend you buy a bottle.
If you are in the mood for a good steak and a trip into the past, plan a few hours to enjoy a good meal and have a few drinks.
