Ordered a pepperoni & sausage calzone to start. DELICIOUS!!! Dave had a steak salad and I had grilled cheese sandwich with chips. We finished the afternoon off by ordering 2 specialty pizzas to go. I can't stress enough the excellent service Eileen gave us. We will definitely be back and ask for a table with Eileen. Thank you, Eileen! Carol and Dave”

“The food is delicious. Unfortunately, there is only one server. She is great and works so hard. She moves from one table to another without getting a rest. We often wait longer because this great server also handles pick-up orders, so it takes more time for our food to arrive, or our order to be taken. We keep going back because it is a lovely, clean, cozy restaurant with delicious food choices, that always arrives hot when it reaches us. And, a server who goes out of her way to make sure every customer has been taken care of and is happy with their meal.
I only gave 4 stars when it came to service. Not because our server wasn't giving us excellent service, but because one person cannot do everything without a break.”

Dunkin' 994 Abbe Rd N, Elyria Coffee Shops • $

“We visit this location quite regularly. I wish that I would have caught her name after all these visits, but there is a sweet blonde gal that works the drive thru window pretty often, who is ALWAYS so kind to us! This morning though, she really went above and beyond and I would love for her wonderful customer service to be recognized! My son is 5 years old and has Autism. Aside from having several food allergies that make eating difficult; he is a picky eater, struggles with various textures, and like many individuals with Autism….he struggles to trying new things. A few months ago, he discovered he likes the glazed munchkins (he calls them “squishy circles” 😂). It became the best part of his morning, stopping for his squishy circles (and mama’s much needed coffee!) Until about 2 weeks ago, when we got an order of munchkins that the glaze was still quite fresh…making them sticky. He reached his hand in the bag to grab one and was absolutely horrified by the sticky texture on his hands. Ever since, he cries “no sticky squishes” 😭😂 So this morning, I tried ordering him an “old fashioned” donut on the app….hoping that the plainness of the donut would cure his fear of the stickies. When we got to the window, the sweet blonde gal told us they didn’t have old fashioned and offered us glazed instead. So I awkwardly explained our dilemma….which she kindly and patiently listened to without any judgement. I embarrassingly asked if there was any way she could pick….the least sticky….of the glazed munchkins for him….to which she said no problem! The pure shock….followed by absolute JOY on my son’s face when he looked into the bag and saw the original “squishy circles” that he fell in love with…truly made my morning. To her, it seemed like no big deal. She provided us quick and kind customer service and probably went about her morning thinking nothing of it. But for us (special needs families)…these small moments of kindness are BIG. So if anyone sees this and knows that sweet blonde gals name, please extend my heartfelt thank you to her for making my son’s day! 💕 (Friday, June 7th, 2024 around 9:15am, drive thru of the N. Abbe Road, Elyria location)”

“I order here alot during the work week. It's almost always quick & on time! The delivery lady is ALWAYS friendly! During COVID they were short staffed as everyone was/is she would always apologize if she was late even though it truly wasn't her fault it was late. Keep up the great work!! Please remember to tip well- it's usually not the drivers fault your food is incorrect or late”

Rally's 711 Cleveland St, Elyria Fast Food • $

“I love Rally's and I love that they're open late since I get out of work late. My only hang up is that every time I order a sandwich that comes with fries on it, like the fry lover's double, there are never any fries on it. I don't know if I just caught them late and they didn't want to make fries or what, but it's happened 3 times now. Still good food and a great team.”

“My family and I visited McDonald’s on June 18 for a few snack-size McFlurries, and we had a great experience! The customer service was amazing—super friendly and patient. They even took the time to stir the McFlurries properly, which most locations don’t do. The portions were just right, and everything was perfect. We left very satisfied. Great job to the team—keep up the great work!”

McDonald's 5250 Detroit Rd, Elyria Fast Food • $

“I thought I was going to make a quick stop in for fries before my granddaughter's dance lesson. It took longer than expected. I went inside to order, later determined was not a smart move. I saw first hand that there were plenty of employees. The person at the register took my order and then I waited while the person filling the fry orders was not approached to get my order until after I waited almost 5 min. I prompted the register person to get the fries because I was going to be late. I understand that there is a priority to get the drive thru people served, but the people inside shouldn't be neglected. There was a lot of standing around and whispering without any urgency for quick service inside the store.”

“The food is delicious. Unfortunately, there is only one server. She is great and works so hard. She moves from one table to another without getting a rest. We often wait longer because this great server also handles pick-up orders, so it takes more time for our food to arrive, or our order to be taken. We keep going back because it is a lovely, clean, cozy restaurant with delicious food choices, that always arrives hot when it reaches us. And, a server who goes out of her way to make sure every customer has been taken care of and is happy with their meal.
I only gave 4 stars when it came to service. Not because our server wasn't giving us excellent service, but because one person cannot do everything without a break.”

She had already left work for the day but came back just to deliver my order.

Please promote her ! But keep her in Lorain county! She is dedicated and smart.”
