| - Mahle's is a restaurant in Westlake on Detroit Rd. that has been around since maybe as early as the 70's. It caters to an older crowd and probably not so much the Milennials. It appears that the customers are long time regulars that the employees are familiar with.
Went here on Easter with my mother who wanted prime rib. Called in advance and they did have prime rib. As we entered the restaurant, it appeared relatively dated, and looked like it had not been remodeled since it opened decades ago. After a few moments we were seated in the dining room and given menus.
The menu was an abbreviated menu for Easter that had American and some Italian entrees, all of them pretty standard dishes. The one exception was the Italian sausage stuffed pepper as an appetizer. Entrees included chicken parmesan, veal parmesan, filet, NY strip, and lamb chops.
My mother and I both ordered the same dish. Prime rib, side salad, and baked potato. Presentation of everything was excellent and there was only a short wait for food. My big disappointment was that the prime rib needed more salt. I also noticed we were the only ones in the dining room eating the prime rib, so maybe that was not one of they're specialities.
Based on the rest of the customers, it seems like most are highly satisfied with the food and are regulars. Wait staff was seasoned and efficient. Unfortunately because of the prime rib, I only give it 3.5 stars, possibly we ordered something that they are not seasoned in preparing. Based on other entrees that I saw coming out of the dining room and other Yelp reviews, I plan to return and check out some other menu items.
