Ira and I ventured out for a our monthly date Saturday night. Ira chose Cady's Grill for our dinner and it was a great choice. Now, I do have to admit that since this restaurant is located in Depot Town in Ypsilanti and I am pretty sure the building is as old as the town, it smells like a 200 year old building. But, the smell was gone within 5 minutes.

The atmosphere is romantic and comfortable. We chose the Fircracker Shrimp for our appetizer, which I believe was one of the specials and may not be on their regular menu. But, it was very good. I also ordered a Georgia Peach martini - yummy!! For dinner I had the Seafood Platter - coconut shrimp, lake perch, cod, calamari, and fries. I ate everything except for a few of the fries and half of the cod. After all, fried cod is pretty much on evey menu across America. I was very happy with my dinner, drink, and service. Ira ordered the Prime Rib (only available Fri and Sat) with mashed redskin potatoes and he completely cleaned his plate. The dinners did not come with a soup or salad option to start, but I actually appreciated this because we had room for dessert and did not feel uncomfortably full when we left.

For dessert, we ordered a chocolate chip tortilla thing that was basically deep fried chocolate chip cookie dough with ice cream and whipped cream. Very tasty, but I did feel like it was more tortilla than cookie dough.

I give the whole meal a 4 star rating. The food was good, the service was great, the meal was moderately priced, and the restaurant had a pleasant atmosphere. We will gladly go back to Cady's.
