Restaurants near Lafayette Park

Food was great and the service was excellent. Server was super friendly and attentive. One concern was with the lighting - the lighting over some of the booths is crazy bright and harsh. I felt like I was on an operating table.

We dine at Ruth’s Chris for special occasions and they never fail to be one of the best places to eat. Every aspect of dining there is perfect.

Probably my new favorite restaurant in South Bend. Great location, right on the river, walking distance to the Morris, and with a spacious (and unexpected) parking lot. Food was great. We had: - Complimentary bread was excellent, served with warm whipped butter. - Oysters were pretty much what you expect, with an excellent cocktail sauce. - Wedge salad was overall very good, and the bacon absolutely outstanding. - Buratta "salad" was essentially bruschetta, and was excellent. - Grilled lobster frites -- lobster was excellently cooked, and fries were perfectly salted and very crisp. -- A5 Myazaki wagyu ribeye cap -- this is the best deal on the menu. $40-60/oz at other places, and $19/oz here, the best deal you'll ever get; it was lightly salted and simply seared -- impossible to screw up, and the best steak I've ever had. -- Mashed potatoes were very high quality, very buttery. -- Chocolate layered cake was delicious, and all the desserts are prepared in-house by the pastry chef. Overall a fabulous dining experience, up to the standard of more expensive restaurants in much larger cities.

Another great experience. The staff were professional and courteous. The noise was a little bit of an issue, but the food and service made up for it.

Rohrs is always a delight. Christmas and we dis not want to cook. We had prime rib that was phenomenal! Such a treasure to eat there.
