From the moment you step into this charming restaurant, you’re greeted by the excellent staff and amazing aroma of the best Italian food I’ve had since moving to Ohio. The drinks, food and atmosphere is top notch and being greeted by Nonna T was the perfect addition to our evening. We will definitely be back and make eating at Nonna T’s a regular event.“

“Pretty nice little Italian restaurant. Got the chicken parmigiana dinner to go with a canoli and it didn't disappoint. Came with a side salad and Italian dressing which was nice. The sauce is good spaghetti was good chicken and cheese was great. Lots of flavor and fresh. Decent portions. Canoli was tasty as well. I would recommend trying this place out it ain't too bad. Nice little outside area to eat as well. Glad I finally stopped by to try it out. I wasn't disappoint and I'll be back. 🙂“

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Vinny’s Catering for our wedding! From start to finish, everything was absolutely amazing. The food was delicious, fresh, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection especially considering they were preparing food for such a large wedding! We had chicken piccata, chicken parmesan, pasta with Vinny’s sauce, eggplant parmesan, salad, and rolls, and every single dish was fantastic. Everything was cooked perfectly, full of flavor, and served just right. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious the food was! The team at Vinny’s was also incredibly professional, friendly, and accommodating. They made sure everything was taken care of and helped make our wedding day so much easier and stress-free. You can truly tell that they care about the food they serve and the experience they provide. We are so grateful to Vinny’s for helping make our wedding day so special. The food, service, and overall experience exceeded our expectations! We would recommend Vinny’s Catering 1,000 times over!“

“Haven’t been in for dinner in a while. Athena, our server was fantastic. Food was outstanding.Really exceeded any expectations we may have had. It was so refreshing to have a server who was so genuinely welcoming and friendly! We were immediately made to feel comfortable. And she was so informative and this is coming from someone who’s been in the hospitality business for over 40 years! Thanks again for a wonderful evening!“

“Guido’s is the best. The end.“

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! This pizza place is an absolute gem. You can taste the difference in every bite -- from the perfect dough crust to the rich, flavorful sauce and the freshest toppings I've ever had. They clearly use only the best ingredients, and it shows. What really sets them apart is the passion of the staff. You can tell they truly love what they do -- every interaction feels warm, genuine, and full of pride for their craft. They even gave the children a behind-the-scenes tour, which was such a fun and unique experience! The children loved being able to make their own pizza. Learning about their sourcing made me appreciate their pizza even more. This isn't just a meal -- it's an experience. If you love pizza, you need to come here. I'm already planning my next visit!“

“We stop here every time we’re in the area for pizza and ice cream and have always left happy and with full bellies. Love the decor, prompt service, and excellent food. Worth a stop for any family on their way back from Lakefarm Park, Holden, or apple picking.“

“Food was good.. had the chicken Parmesan and husband had pasta diablo … only complaint is we never got rolls and I asked for them and still never got them..“

“Spats is my kinda place. The first time I visited Spats, I saw a neon beer sign in the window and figured I’d grab a beer while I was waiting for my gf to finish her shopping. I was instantly met with the dive-bar/hole in the wall vibe. Spats did not disappoint! If that’s not what you’re looking for, you might try the dining area instead of the bar area, which has at least 10 TVs, so I assume it’s also a nice sports bar.

So I told my gf that we should come back sometime when we want to hang out. We did! There aren’t many vegetarian options, but you can get typical bar food, plus an extensive lunch/dinner menu. I tried the fried mushrooms. They were delicious! I see why some ppl don’t like the fries, but they were perfect for me. They were not greasy or cooked in recycled oil like some idiots claimed in their reviews. But yes, they’re typical of real potato fries: soft and limp, just the way I like them. But they were also a little bland. Nothing a little salt couldn’t fix. I also had the fried shrimp, which was fine. Cole slaw was OK. My gf liked her chicken salad. Portions are HUGE. I’ll be back to try other items on the menu. I’m giving it 5 stars to offset the idiots who gave it one. But overall, it’s probably 4.5 stars.“

“Best pizza in town. Excellent service. Very friendly staff.“
