Grosse Ile has its classics, but Perdino’s of Grosse Ile stands at the top for those seeking an evening with both flavor and fun. Open seven days a week at 4:30PM, this local favorite at 8575 Macomb Street, Grosse Ile, MI 48138 is the neighborhood answer to your “where should we eat tonight?” dilemma.
First Impressions: Warmth, White Linen, and “Hello!”
There’s something comforting about a restaurant where the staff remembers your face and the owner is often moving between tables, checking that your wine glass never runs dry. Perdino’s brings a down-to-earth, welcoming vibe without ever losing its sense of occasion. It’s classic dining — with real tablecloths, polished glasses, and old-school hospitality.
Call for a table at (734) 676-8100 — though, it’s not unusual for the regulars to fill the house on a weekend.
The Menu: Classic Choices, Done Right
Hungry? The menu at Perdino’s is a love letter to both steakhouse classics and Italian favorites. Each dish comes out of the kitchen with care, whether you’re carb-loading on pasta or sinking your fork into a juicy steak.
Start Here: Heighten Your Appetite
-
Oysters Rockefeller arrive rich, briny, and bubbling with herbal goodness.
-
Shrimp Cocktail is chilled and snappy, served with cocktail sauce that never misses.
-
French Fried Mushrooms, Escargot Bourguignonne, and chicken liver pâté round out a set of appetizers that invite sharing and a second round of drinks.
Salads With Soul
Crisp Caesar salad with a proper dressing, a hearty Greek salad, or the house Chef Salad loaded with chicken, ham, and cheese offer a chance to eat green — but there’s no “diet” food attitude here.
Steakhouse Standards
Got a steak lover at the table? You’ll find the best of the classics:
-
US Prime Filet Mignon, NY Strip, and a towering Porterhouse all come with the works — think chateau sauce and enough sautéed mushrooms to share (but you won’t).
-
Chateaubriand Bouquetiere and Roast Rack of Lamb Ascot are dinner and a show, delivered for two. This is weekend dining, served with a side of celebration.
From the Sea
The seafood menu is as robust as the land options:
-
Lake Superior White Fish and Pickerel feature classic broiled preparations.
-
Fresh Fried Jumbo Shrimp and Surf & Turf (when you can’t choose between steak and lobster) make for tough decisions.
-
Frog Legs a la Provençale — for the adventurous.
Pasta & More
For those loyal to noodles, Cheese Ravioli Alfredo, Fettuccine Alfredo with Prosciutto, and the signature Spaghetti with Meatballs never fail to please. Want a little heat? Try Perdino’s Spaghetti with Hot Peppers.
House Favorites
Don’t miss the Veal Parmigiana or the “spot-on” Chicken Perdino — these are regulars’ favorites for a reason. Looking for something with a touch more flair? The Half Roast Duck comes sautéed with mushrooms and artichokes, offering a mix of the familiar and the unexpected.
Sides and Extras
Let’s be honest — you need the Onion Rings (they’re legendary) and probably a side of crisply French Fries or a baked potato with all the trimmings.
Drinks and the Dining Room
Looking for a cocktail with your meal? The bar pours classics with a steady hand. Take a seat in the comfortable dining room or the lounge, where conversation and laughter feel right at home.
For Every Occasion
Whether you’re looking for a romantic night, a spot for the family, or a table for your crew after a local game, Perdino’s makes everyone feel like they belong. In a world of quick bites and fast food, dining here is about slowing down and savoring the moment (and maybe a giant steak).
