They say that the way to someone’s heart is through their stomach, so how about a special Valentine’s Day dinner? Ernie’s Mediterranean Grill in Clinton Township is celebrating love this weekend with a special multi course dinner for two for under $100.
The restaurant has been a staple in Macomb County for nearly 50 years and they said the key to their success is not being afraid to take risks. “We’ve reinvented ourselves several times… we always stay very current,” Owner Samuel Backos said.
Backos said his father opened the restaurant 47 years ago. During that time they have changed the menu a few times and he has kept the décor updated. “It’s by design,” he said.
When you dine there you can have a different experience every time. There’s a huge bar area, an enclosed and outdoor patio, an elegant area with plush booths, and several private dining spaces.
Backos said their huge menu, that offers freshly prepared Greek dishes and more, has also helped with their longevity.
