Lake perch sandwich with a lemon-drop martini! Delicious! My friend had the same with a pomegranate martini which she highly recommends. Great service too! read more

Very tasty and delicious burgers in town Super nice front waiter. Delicious appetizers

Service was not good. Food was not good. Chateaubriand for two was a joke. Waited forever for food. Waitress was clueless on everything and kept walking away before we were done ordering. I thought this was supposed to be a quality restaurant! Absolutely not. Don't waste your money. read more

I can honestly say, I've never had a bad meal here. My steak was grilled to perfection and my sides, so yummy! The French martini is tasty and I always end my meal with dessert- a Chocolate martini! The prices are reasonable. At times, the service is slow, but only because they are busy! Make reservations!! Love this wonderful restaurant! read more

Visited here on a Friday night. Had to wait about 10 minutes for a table for 2. The service was friendly and fast. We got good drinks, and the bread service was tasty. Overall the entrees didn't stand out too much, but we are glad we tried it at least once! read more

This place use to be good. But took over an hour to get our food. When we did it looked like this. The crab legs were black and mushy. The shrimp was black and the lake perch was horrible. Super fishy tasting. The French fries tasted and looked like they had been sitting under a heat lamp for an hour. And on top of that we sat the whole time swatting at flies. Will never go back. Going home hungry after spending $100. read more

This place is awesome for lunch. It's even cheaper than McDonald's, and the food is amazing. You should totally go.

My family and I went to McVey's for my husband's birthday, I thought for the price of the food, they were excellent great service and the food was delicious! read more

Met some friends for lunch. We ordered salad sandwiches and cod. It took some time for our meal to come out. Thought they forgot about us. But all in all, it had a decent menu to pick and choose from. Food was good! read more

This is one of our favorites with an inviting atmosphere for all ages. The food was awesome and consistent. Our waitress and bartender were truly professionals and actually seemed to enjoy their jobs! Always on the top of our list to enjoy a relaxing dinner! read more

McVey's Restaurant & Bar - This from their you chiose 2 or 3 items . Sauteed perch, sirloin done perfectly, and crab legs. - American Near Me - Lowell, Indiana

Well...we have been coming here for years. We enjoy the food and the setting. However, the last 2-3 times we've gone, the service has tanked. I believe we saw our server 4 times: once for a drink order, once to deliver the drinks and take our food order, once to deliver the bill, and once to take our money. We sat for 20 minutes with empty drinks, and 30 minutes with dirty plates and old food sitting on our table. The dirty dishes were only picked up when our bill was delivered. I guessed we actually saw our servers and bussers for a max total of 5 minutes in an hour and a half's time. Now you want a 20%+ tip? For 5 minutes? Lets say on a $100.00 bill that would come out to $ 240.00 an hour for carrying a plate of food and 2 drinks 40 feet to our table. As I looked around, everyone in the dining room that were done eating had a pile of dirty plates and glasses under their nose. People should not feel obligated to tip for absolutely lousy service. I believe I was told they don't "pre bus" any more. For good service I tip well. For bad service, I tip accordingly. Will not be back read more

Steak was really undercooked. The baked potato was small and overcooked. The appetizers plates was dirty. The mash potatoes had a crust over them. Just all around nasty place. read more

Went to McVey's for the first time on Friday night. It was good. Plenty of free parking behind the restaurant. Our party of seven had reservations in the bar. We had drinks before dinner, the bartender was very good although I was disappointed they do not have any beer on tap. Bread, bean salad, and coleslaw comes before dinner and it was delicious. I ordered the Lake Perch sauteed and a baked potato. All of the food was good. Service was a tad slow and one of our party had to get up to get menus, but the place was packed and once our server arrived, she was friendly and efficient. All in all, a good experience and we would return. read more

First off, let me say the food was excellent! But! The service was absolutely horrible. Went there with my sister as a birthday celebration for myself and our waitress could not have been any more Rude! There was a table of three that she obviously knew the people very very well and was standing having a extremely long conversation with. She was rude when she asked us what we wanted to eat. She said she gave us plenty of time to decide why was I indecisive and it's true she gave us plenty of time cause she was busy talking to her friends and then it took a good 20 minutes for our soup to arrive and actually the bus girl is who brought out our soup not our waitress and then it took another 30 minutes to get our pasta that we ordered after she did bring us our pasta. She literally went to the next table and sat down and talked with those people those people had already finished eating by the time we were seated. When she finally brought our checks, she literally asked me if I wanted my change or not. I told her no you can keep that and my change is your tip. I have never been so rudely treated so if you go, ask not to have.Marynell as your server read more

Best deal in NWI? The $25 prime rib on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. It's a massive cut of meat cooked to perfection and served with sides and warm bread. We dined here for lunch on Friday and the phone was ringing off the hook for reservations. My guess is the prime rib tends to run out early. While my husband had the prime rib, I had house made crab cakes and macaroni and cheese. The crab cakes were very tasty. Another good deal? The children's burger meal with milk and a side. It's a hand-formed patty served on a soft brioche bun with a side and a drink. This could easily serve an adult. The restaurant is fine and decorated nicely but it's clearly aged and a little stale smelling. Overall, though, it's a great place for lunch or that fantastic prime rib dinner. read more

Absolutely love this place. Food is fantastic and always on point. Nice atmosphere. And Joe behind the bar works really hard taking care of drinks and people at the bar. This is a must go to. Especially for the broasted chicken or prime rib read more

We met friends for dinner on 5/29/25. Were seated in the bar area. I don't remember our server's name but she was incredible. One of the best. The jumbo shrimp and lake perch were excellent. We will return. read more

After several years later (9 to be exact), we tried McVeys again. Had pretty much the same menu items. Sirloin, crab cakes, shrimp, baked potato. With the addition of broasted chicken. I suppose I should say it was not a bad meal, better than the 2 stars I gave last time. But I can't understand the 4-5 stars others are giving. Other than it's fairly priced compared to similar restaurants, and our server was very nice, the food was just ok. All was tasty (except the artichoke dip ) but we got the and bottom of the bag chip crumbs ( which I believe are Aldi tortilla rounds). There were only a few big enough to actually dip with. The funniest thing is my husband mentioned his croutons tastes like the "fair". Which were the exact words I used to described them years ago. They have not changed, but I liked them this time. Lol I'm thinking there are a lot of locals that frequent here and have just grown to love it. Which is fine, but just have that expectation and you'll enjoy your meal. read more

We happened to find McVey's on a Sunday evening, when they had prime rib as the special. Of course, we ordered it, and it was perfect. The coleslaw and bean salad appetizers were a nice addition to the usual bread offering. Our food was seasoned well. Our server was attentive and friendly, as was everyone, from hostess to busers. The restaurant was busy and full, but we could still hear each other, without shouting - a plus in my book, as I get older. We will definitely go back when we're in town again. read more

Food is wonderful, service is great! My favorite restaurant! Prices are reasonable. Had the Prime Rib and it was great. Daughter had a filet that was cooked perfectly read more

Old school steakhouse. Nice but not overly fancy so you can dress casual. The prices are reasonable for a steakhouse and the food was very good. Steaks cooked and seasoned perfectly. Shrimp dejoung was a great surprise and tasty. Service was fast and friendly. Would go back. read more

Let me start by saying that our server was the bartender and he didn't excellent job. He was professional and very quick suggestions for us off the menu. The three of us signed in we chose the pick two my wife had a sirloin steak and satay shrimp my son had the sirloin Steak, crab, legs, and crab leg. I opted for the fried shrimp and sirloin steak when seated your bread garlic bread can you be salad and coleslaw was delicious with the meals we ordered for $25 or $31 ($31 to pick three entries.) With your choice of super salad my wife and I took the homemade Arlich my son out there for the soup. My wife was not thrilled with the house made garlic. I thought it was OK. My son soup was mostly vegetables the little bit of broth, but he thought the broth taste excellent, the steaks were prepared to order, medium medium rare cooked three large fried shrimp they were cooked perfection served with cocktail sauce. It was delicious. My steak was perfectly cooked. I did ask for no salt as I can't have salt. I opted for french fries without salt and onion. Steak with, sautéed mushrooms my wife steak also came with sautéed mushrooms. The only of the night were my wife's sautéed shrimp. They had a weird breading at them, which I did not consider that sautéed that they were nowhere near as good as my friend shrimp and she did not eat them. My son enjoyed the crabcakes as well as the crab legs. Everything was cooked well for you for three dollars I opted for water. It was served with lemon and ice. My wife had a Pepsi and my son had a raspberry free refills again the service was excellent we were tentatively taken care of and the only miss was my wife shrimp, based on everything I give them four stars I would say 4 1/2 but yelp does not allow that shrimp. It was not a five star experience. You're in the area. This is definitely worth checking out in the back 21 and over section it was moderately noisy, we were assisted by several staff members. I recommend the place highly for dinner prices are your portions sizes large read more

Love their Lake Perch! Would say they're my top 3 in NWI area.. have yet to get their prime rib yet, will have to come back.

Just visited McVey's for the first time yesterday /200828 and i was knocked out i hadn't known of this restaurant. i got the BBQ rubbed pork chop dinner You get 2 well-prepared chops and it was excellent with cinnamon butter sweet baked potato and cinnamon baked apple sides: all exceptional. The free appetizer of bean salad and a sweet cole slaw also very good. We sat in the bar and it was late afternoon so it was quiet. Our server was very friendly and attentive. I love this place and look forward to trying more of their varied menu of fish and meats. I highly recommend this restaurant. The $$ are very reasonable and a good value. I would rate restaurant this very high for this area and tops in value. read more

Had the ribs. They melt in your mouth & the sauce is a wonderful blend. Loved the food

Amazing food and great ambiance. Perfect for a date night! Fancy drink specials and really good service as well.

They have put Prime Rib on the menu all day on Fri, Sat, Sun. It is so good. I also held my daughters bridal shower there. The guests had a choice of steak, chicken or ribs including all the sides. Everyone loved the food. The atmosphere is adorable. Always cutely decorated according to the holdiay. Their combination plates are delish. I have also been there for lunch and the burger is juicy. The staff is always sweet and friendly. However they have beome so popular, better make a reservation before going. They fill up fast. read more
