Tony Packo's Cafe Toledo, OH
Finally, a friend took me to this restaurant. As a fan of a good dog or sausage, I had high hopes. I had the misfortune of ordering more food than I can eat! The hot dog sauce grew to be quite peppery towards the end of this meal. I would certainly not point anyone away from Tony Packo's.
Cafe Marie Restaurant Toledo, OH
Service at the Maumee location left something to be desired one early afternoon. Interesting twists on your traditional breakfast items. My Eggs Benedict were overcooked, but the flavor of the rest of the meal was fine. Perhaps they don't want to give me undercooked eggs, despite my request.
Fifi's Restaurant Toledo, OH
Excellent flavors. Great presentations. Each dish managed to be better and better. Servers appear right when you need them. Spend a few hours and a couple extra dollars and visit Fifi's.
Yoko Maumee, OH
With one of our first experiences in Japanese cooking, we decided to try Yoko. At first it was intimidating because I knew nothing of what I was doing. The servers quickly made us more comfortable by informing us on items, portions, and little extras. Miso soup, sushi and rolls were among the items we tried; all of which were excellent. Price is good considering the amount of items one can sample, or plain make a meal out of. I will return to Yoko.
Peppercorns Perrysburg, OH
Every experience I have had at Peppercorn's has been great. Generous appetizers and dinners allow you to walk out with a full belly. At times, dinner specials are not terribly creative, but you're sure to find a menu item to satisfy. Quiet, dark atmosphere adds intimacy whether dining alone or with guest(s).
Jed's Bar-Br-Que & Brew Perrysburg, OH
Fun staff, cold beer and 70s/80's rock make this a fine establishment to grab a burger or some Fireballs and watch the game.
Matthew's Creative Cuisine Toledo, OH
Every item that we tried was excellent. From the escargot with pesto butter to the pork loin to pasta to house salad, everything was wonderful and nothing like your average restaurant. Each course came slowly, but the three hour dinner was well worth it. Front of house staff was helpful, pleasant, and accomodating. Dining room is elegant, but feels slightly stuffy. Do not expect a cheap meal here, however, it is worth every penny. Overall, a beautiful dining experience.
J Alexander's Toledo, OH
This is a fine dining atmosphere that accepts the casual diner. The white tablecloth/napkin and decked out servers makes for a nice presentation of the establishment. We were there one day, underdressed in my opinion, and they accepted us! The open kitchen allows the customer to have a good view of the action. Food was excellent; large portions and beautiful presentation. Dinner salads cost extra, but they are huge. One can easily get by without the salad. Anything on the menu is worth a try. For the most part, very friendly and prompt service.
Ciao Ristorante Sylvania, OH
We were seated at a booth in the lounge/bar, which didn't exactly have the most 'fine dining' atmosphere that I was led to expect from this restaurant. I would prefer the dining room next time. The menu has plenty of interesting Italian dishes. My girlfriend was quite the big fan of the portabello ravioli's. I had grilled shrimp with orzo, which was pretty tasty. My overall experience was nothing extraordinary. However, I would definitely give them another shot.
Mancy's Steak House Toledo, OH
In the early '70s, Mancy's was completely destroyed by fire. It was rebuilt, though, retaining an old, rustic feel. From the parking lot to the table, the atmosphere is beautiful. Dim lights and cozy booths make for a fine dining experience. I would have to disagree that this should be under Italian restaurants as the menu has a variety of mostly steak and seafood. The wide selection kept me wondering what to eat. I'm a sucker for escargot in mushroom caps (which Mancy's does a damn good job on), so we had those while we decided. Entree's here can get expensive, but the food is most definitely worth it. From a kitchen manager of a steakhouse, I highly recommend Mancy's.
Maumee Bay Brewing Co Toledo, OH
The Maumee Bay Brewing Co. is absolutely worth a visit. Come on, how can you pass up a luscious microbrew??? The lounge has a nice, relaxed atmosphere with a fine view of brewing equipment. Crab bisque and Shrimp & corn chowder were the soups at the time (I don't know if they change) and both flavors were excellent. In addition to those soups, the menu has some other interesting appetizers and dinners. Service was friendly and overall, it was a very good experience.
Mcintyre's Restaurant Bowling Green, OH
Patrick R.'s omelette sent him to the restroom. However, my chili dogs were quite tasty. The delivery was prompt and friendly.
Saba's Charcoal House Toledo, OH
From the outside, Saba's looks like a hole. Once inside, your opinion will change. We've always been greeted by a very friendly hostess, and all but once, had excellent service. The atmosphere is quiet and comfortable. I love the wrap-around style booths. Food presentation and portions are great. You must try the escargot in mushroom caps. Highly recommend this restaurant.
Croy's Supper Club Perrysburg, OH
Croy's menu, from what I remember, was rather extensive. They had some tasty appetizers...one can never go wrong with the escargot. As for an entree, the beef tournadoes are excellent. The server was friendly, but didn't seem to have much knowledge on the dinner and wine features. This place is definitely worth the try.
Erin Pub Norwood, PA
Fun atmosphere. Long waits on the weekends, but they cut a fat prime rib. Service was not very friendly. Can't say it was bad, but nothing to write home about.
Bridget Foy's South St Grill Philadelphia, PA
Cannot say enough about this restaurant. Not many people knew about it, and the ones that did weren't impressed. The place was great...atmosphere, service, food, beer, everything.
Shaw's Restaurant & Inn Lancaster, OH
Very beautiful restaurant! The menu has extensive choices, from cheap to expensive, and you'll probably find what you want. My girlfriend's steak was excellent...my tilapia (sp?) wasn't bad. Service was very friendly and professional.
East of Chicago Pizza Co Bowling Green, OH
They done closed down in Bowling Green.
Sam B's Restaurant Bowling Green, OH
Nice restaurant. Quality food, but rather overpriced on some items. Service is good at times and terrible at times.
Sierra Room Grand Rapids, MI
*Interesting* atmosphere. This is fine dining, yet casual. The service was extra friendly, especially since we arrived rather late (I'm a cook, I know what it's like!). I sampled all of everyone else's dishes and they were all beautiful. If you smoke, just to see they're collection of thrift shop ashtrays is entertaining.
