The Ultimate Guide to Outdoor Dining This Summer
Warmer weather means it's time to eat at a St. Joseph restaurant with outdoor seating. Many have harbor or lake views, and one is even situated in a lovely garden. The fresh air, relaxed feel, and beautiful scenery help make your meal out even more special. In this ultimate guide to outdoor dining this summer, our real estate agents suggest visiting the following restaurants.
- Plank's Tavern on the Water - 800 Whitwam Drive, St. Joseph, MI 49085
Plank's Tavern on the Water, located near Saint Joseph homes for sale, has beautiful views of the harbor, outdoor seating, and an outdoor bar, so it's an ideal warm-weather dining destination. Start your brunch with an adult beverage because, as the menu says, "no good story starts with a salad." The peanut butter and jelly shot and JOP's Bloody Mary are popular choices. From there, try an entree like Blueberry Bliss French Toast or Shrimp and Grits. If you go for dinner, you'll have your choice of hearty, delicious fare like Lakeside Wagyu Steak or Garlic Ginger Scallops. - RyeBelles Restaurant and Bar - 518 Broad St., St. Joseph, MI 49085
RyeBelles Restaurant and Bar in downtown St. Joseph serves handcrafted food that makes it worth a visit. The full-service rooftop makes the restaurant even more special, which gives customers breathtaking views of Lake Michigan. The food is also terrific with entrees like Belles Chicken, made with char-grilled chicken breasts and topped with goat cheese, basil, fire-roasted tomatoes, and citrus beurre blanc, or Lake Perch from the Great Lakes, which is fried and served with coleslaw and caper tartar sauce. - The Buck Burgers and Brew - 412 State St., St. Joseph, MI 49085
For breathtaking views of the sunset over Lake Michigan, head to The Buck Burgers and Brew, which you'll find downtown in a remodeled historic building. The restaurant has two large outdoor decks to savor the views from and prides itself on serving fresh, made-from-scratch items such as homemade sauces, freshly ground burger, and housemade chips. Don't miss the Buck Burger, made from a tri-blend of brisket, chuck, and short rib, and wash it down with one of the restaurant's many craft brews. - Bistro on the Boulevard - 521 Lake Blvd., St. Joseph, MI 49085
For seasonal, elevated, and modern American cuisine, head to Bistro on the Boulevard. The restaurant has a lovely veranda where you can eat outside in the shade amid large white columns. And when it comes to food, you'll find that dishes incorporate seasonal, local food whenever possible, adding to their fresh flavor. Customer favorites include Pappardelle, house-made pasta served with wild mushrooms, morels, Grand Noir blue cheese, and truffle butter, as well as Blackened Catfish, which is served with mango salsa, citrus beurre blanc, and lemon-infused mashed potatoes. - Tosi's - 4337 Ridge Road, Stevensville, MI 49127
Tosi's offers two great options for outdoor seating, so you can choose between their Saraceno Veranda or the lovely Italian Garden. Diners love the restaurant's many versions of house-made pasta, including linguine, penne, casareccia, lasagna, bucatini, spaghetti, and ravioli. Dishes are handcrafted daily and include fresh, seasonal ingredients with sauces created from scratch. Similar attention to detail is given to steaks, which are hand-cut by the chef and seasoned before being cooked over a charcoal grill.
