Being from the area, I'm so reluctant to leave a local bad review, but the Patio has to do better. As a little girl we would come here for our "nicest" restaurant night out. Those times are gone. In the past few years, The only good things on the buffet are fried, steaks are painfully low quality, and they can't mix a cocktail. There's no love or passion put into the food or service. The last time we made a reservation here, we were given a folding table with plastic tablecloth when there were still plenty of the same size of standard tables remaining. Still not sure what happened there. From what I can tell, the only people keeping it alive are those in town who still remember it as the "nicest" restaurant, and don't feel there's a better option without making a longer drive. Please do better for the sake of the locals.

We were staying in Tell City to visit Holiday World, and Patio Steakhouse was recommended by YELP! and it did not disappoint! The salad bar was fresh and crisp; the entire restaurant was clean and tidy; the food was delicious, fresh, hot, and savory; the staff was friendly and polite. Highly recommend this family-owned, wonderful restaurant for more generations to enjoy!

One of the best salad bars around! Also has a variety of hot food on the bar daily. Menu with multiple options like burgers, chicken sandwiches and steaks. This is a restaurant that has been open for over 50 years and I've never had anything I didn't like. My go to is the Chicken Maui. The dining room is nicely decorated with a cool fan feature on the ceiling. Service is friendly and attentive.

Third time here because the first two times the lights were on, the door was unlocked, I saw people walking inside, however " sorry, we're not open right now" Well how about keeping the door locked until you are ? I was seated after the hostess finished her tasks and answering the phone. The waitress came right away and took my drink order. I asked for the buffet. The chicken was very over cooked and dry with no flavor except for a thin smear of what was probably a bbq sauce. It was tough to chew and hard to swallow. Thankfully I had some tea. The fish was pretty decent. Very tender inside the crust. Mashed potatoes were decent. Two gravies, the white one was ok. The brown one was not great and indescribable in the flavor. The Mac and cheese was - orange and sticky. That should be a new flavor description because that's only what it tasted like. There was something in a pan that I'm going to call chicken and dumplings. Some boiled cabbage. The corn looked like it had a lot of black pepper in it but not much flavor and seemed like the kernels had dried out some because it stuck to my teeth really bad. The sausage and bell peppers were not good to me either. The seafood salad just tasted like cold mayonnaise. So after all of this I thought I'd try a piece of chocolate cake. It looked like your typical chocolate pudding and whipped cream type of cake with a smear of whipped cream on top with bits of chocolate cookies on top of that. The desert plate it was on was Stuck to the surface it was sitting on. When I got back to my table I could see that all of the surfaces , top and sides, were filmed over like you would expect if you were to put it back in the refrigerator over night to set out the next day , or two. Who knows? I'm glad I went because I'll never have the desire to go back. Unless they have posted "NEW CHEF" out front.

Buffet was hot and fresh. Due to our 2020 pandemic they are serving up items of your choice for you with generous scoops of delicious salads and the meats on the line were spot on, the best was the breaded white fish that was tasty and hot. Teriyaki chicken was tender and delicious. MASHED taters were amazing, creek fries were not.Desserts come with buffet. Banana pudding was extra fresh with lots of bananas.Sweet tea was sweet, with quick refills.

The service is great. I would say the food is alright, but the salad is good. It's a very casual dining experience.

I drove over an hour to eat Valentine's dinner at Patio. We have eaten here several times with good food and service. After tonight, we will not be back. I found a hair in my salad after taking one bite! The waitress took it without apology and stated she would get another. Obviously, I do not want another being disgusted by the hair, and at that point, I was not offered a different side. I get my meal, take a few bites of my oversalted pork chop, take one bite of German potatoes, and find a small black curly hair. Get the waitress who responds. I checked those for hair before I gave them to you. Really?!? So had they found it, would they have just pulled it out and served it anyway? When she takes it, another lady comes out to state she did not see the hair on the potatoes but did see the one in the salad and ask what I was after, a discount. I did not drive over an hour to take a few bites of food. When the waitress returned with my $5.00 discounted bill for a meal I did not eat, I asked if the lady that came out was the manager, and she replied that she's the owner. We did not even mention the missing side of macaroni and cheese.!! It is understandable that hairs and such may occasionally get into food, but being treated like a liar or that I'm after a free meal by both the waitress and owner is not acceptable, which is why we will not be returning.
