    Weber's is our favorite restaurant. We travel to Ann Arbor from the Chicago suburbs most football Saturdays and for one basketball game a year. We always dine at Weber's when here. The prime rib is the best anywhere! The salad is unique and delicious. A wonderful restaurant!!

    Seated pretty quickly; service was a little slow; menu had nice variety; calamari appetizer was skimpy, but delicious; entrees were spaghetti and meatball (1), lamb chops, and a salad - all tasty; desserts were Nutella crepe and a bread pudding - both delicious!
