The Patio Restaurant offers a delightful dining experience with a variety of delicious menu items. Their donuts, available in 6 flavors, are a standout, described as "best" and "large and filling," with the chocolate coconut being particularly recommended. The restaurant serves excellent chicken, which many prefer over Amish restaurants, meatloaf, and burgers accompanied by coleslaw and fries. The house salad dressing is also praised for its great taste. Conveniently located near the Lakeside pier, The Patio Restaurant provides a great option for both dine-in and takeout and has a friendly atmosphere. It is a busy place, and parking can be limited.
We stopped in quickly to get a dozen donuts to take home, and we were glad we did. They were some good donuts. We didn't get a chance to try anything else, but if you're nearby and looking for quality donuts, stop here.
