Overview
Located in Lincoln Center, Midgley’s Public House offers an exciting, culinary experience serving American-fusion small plates/shared food, paired with spirits and fine wine. Cooking since the age of fourteen, Chef Michael Midgley is bringing his culinary talents to Lincoln Center. And it won’t be subtle if we take into consideration his nationally recognized awards. "My wife Laci and I gave ‘Midgley’s Public House’ a great deal of thought before we made the decision to move forward. Lincoln Center is the perfect place for us to realize this dream,” states Chef Midgley.
Chef Midgley has made a name for himself in the culinary world. He attended California Culinary Academy in San Francisco and was most recently the Executive Chef at Ernie’s Food and Spirits in Manteca. His big and vivacious personality expands way beyond San Joaquin County. He has appeared as a contestant on Bravo television’s “Top Chef” and was the top winner of Food Network’s “Cut Throat Kitchen”. As he reached ‘celebrity chef’ status, he has appeared as a judge on Esquire network’s “Knife Fight” and Bravo’s “Top Chef Masters.”
Right now his celebrity chef status will take a back burner to his passion to open this restaurant – and his passion to serve great food! Involved in every detail of the design of the restaurant to the savory selections on the menu, the opening of Midgely’s Public House in not only a dream, it will soon be a reality. Chef Midgley and his wife Laci reside in Stockton with their three children.

Its Saturday and we made a reservation just in case. It was our first time so I thought better safe than sorry. We got our table quickly, by the bar. It was busy. Very quickly the bartender came over and asked what we'd like to drink. My husband got a coke and I ordered a glass of Michael and David even though it was $10.50 a glass for a local wine. He came back fast with our drinks and the wine pour was good for the price. He asked if we were ready to order and we were so we got avacado fries, fish and shrimp plate, and filet minion dinner. The avacado fries came and my husband and I both LOVED them. They have jalapeño in them too, perfect heat and creamy goodness with a crunch that's satisfying for texture. I told my husband "If this is how good dinner is going to be, I'm excited. " He agreed. Our dinners arrived and my steak was cooked perfectly, it came with delicious garlic potatoes and asparagus cooked well. I usually am unable to eat a whole plate and always try to get a 6oz steak because I can usually finish it, but did especially well on the 8oz tonight due to it being so good. I only had one bite left that I really wanted to eat lol. The mashed potatoes portion was substantially large compared to the meat so I wasn't able to finish those, but they were very good. My husband's fish plate had good sized shrimp, crispy/flakey fish, and a large portion of fries as well. My husband mentioned that his plate was a large size for the price and delicious. We regularly had servers asking us if we needed anything and could see they were ALL working hard individually but together to give all guests great service. I am DEFINITELY coming back here and am actually looking forward to bringing family and friends to enjoy as well. The atmosphere can be loud, as I said we were right next to the bar, but I imagine that can be rectified by a table selection if your looking for intimacy. The food can seem a bit pricey, but it's delicious and service is great. Its a nice place but you don't need to dress up fancy. It's casual. Like nice casual. Don't wear sweats, wear jeans and a nice shirt. Or a cute dress.
So we recently celebrated our special day. For whatever reason the waitress Shannon didn't want serve us anymore. But Lexy took good care of us even before the said waitress. She makes the bomb strawberry lemonade . Lexy acted more like a server than the waitress did. Midgley is lucky to have her. She is awesome. The actual person who was suppose to be serving us, not so much. Lexy the bus lady gets 5🌠 for her exceptional service.
I love a place where you can go in your work clothes or all dressed up and feel comfortable either way. Midgley's has been a pleasant surprise that I have added to my list of go to places. The staff is great. A personal favorite is Brittany. She is always in a good mood and She always seems excited to see whoever comes through the door. You can tell that she takes her job seriously and that she is invested into her customers. If you haven't seen her make an old fashioned. It's definitely made with love.
Everything is awesome every time we come here. I had the Salmon and shrimp while my wife had the Libster Cob salad. Both were delicious.
