“We had a wonderful dinner on October 7th with friends. This is the 4th visit to this restaurant, and each time has been very good. We have used the movie suites as well and enjoyed that experience. ON October 7th, our server Brittany was AWESOME, and we will request her in our future visits. Thanks for a great evening, Brittany!“

“I absolutely loved finding this place! ❤

The owners were so friendly and welcoming, and I especially love that Park Place is family owned. You could really feel that family atmosphere while we were there. I even got to meet one of their great-granddaughters, and the owners were pointing out their daughters to me. 😂 It was just really sweet and made the whole place feel so much more personal.

They were genuinely some of the friendliest people I’ve met, and I’m honestly so happy I found them! They also own boardwalk sales just a few doors Down! All around great people!!!

It’s always nice to find a local place where you feel welcomed and appreciated instead of just being another customer.“

“Feels like home good people good bartenders everyone is like family here. Of course there’s always gonna be crazy nights where not everyone gets along but that’s just any bar. I feel safe here, the prices are good. Darts, good music. Definitely a good friendly neighborhood place.“

“I've been back in Akron for over a year and finally found some Italian food with seasoning. I just finished a lovely Calzone that was excellent. I could see all the extra items that I added and the food was fresh. When I ask for extras, I want to see and taste them. Thank you to San Marino for making that happen. It was delicious.“

“Food was so good! The artichokes were amazing, truffle fries were really yummy as well. The mixed veggies were great as well. My boyfriend got chicken alfredo and loved the chicken.

The bartender and food runner were super friendly and helpful. You could tell they cared about our experience.“

“We felt welcomed by a gentleman that seated us. The gentleman stopped by our table to check on us. I later found out that he was the owner. The waitress was soo nice. The tacos were amazing, and the drinks were wonderful. The restaurant is beautiful. Good food, good drinks, and good people♥️“

“Not going to lie, we went there because starbucks was closing...how nice was it that there was a coffee shop/bar/cocktail spot not too far away that had wifi and a table with an outlet to setup shop.

We were able to finish our project have a few mocktails, chat with some of the locals and find a really chill spot with cool people and good music to get some stuff done and just hang.

We will definitely check this place out again at some point. But the service was great, food was awesome and so were the drinks.

If you are looking for a spot definitely at least check this place out if its not your style.“

“I remember my mother working here when I was younger“

“The BEST aound!!!!“
