“I was visiting Ohio on a church convocation. I was told they was the best so I went. From first entrance felt very much welcome. The owener made spaghetti for me with no hesitation just like I like it witch was off his menu. He didn't have to do that, and might I say it was delicious. I got a small but it was definitely enough for 2 people. On our last night Sunday my dad and l went it wanting to try the pizza and wings. We found that they closed at 8 we
got there around 8:20. But the owner again did his big one. He told the staff to turn the ovens back on and made our order for us. The pizza and wings was a 10/10 for sure. I pray all blessing and love to this establishment cause they went above and beyond twice for my family and I this week. You guys rock”

“Sorry, I didn’t take any photos but this was an exceptionally good lunch place.
Friendly service. Quality food and good portions.
Overall good vibe as the entire staff seemed like they genuinely enjoy the place they were working. From the hostess to the servers to the cooks, they all had smiles and good demeanor amongst each other. That is a great job by management creating that atmosphere and culture.”

“We started coming when the Mentor store first opened we’ve been here every weekend sense. The people and food keep us coming back”

“Catering for Our Film crew was Perfect after a long day on Set!! Every dish was a celebration of Italy's culinary traditions, fresh, high-quality ingredients. The classic combination of ingredients was a snapshot of what Italian cuisine is all about. The Lemon Chicken, Peppers, Meatballs, Pasta and Salad were Perfection .... the team loved everything!”

“First time! Excited! Heard nothing but compliments. The restaurant had many open seats. We enter and a person of upper management looked up and punched in something and then directed the server. The server, under direction took us to the worst place in the restaurant. My prayer was that it wasn’t because we were a family of color. I tried hard to disregard the thought as we were directed to sit outside the kitchen door. :—/. I was getting away from the kitchen. That was the last place I wanted to celebrate our special occasion. I asked for a different place in the restaurant that was housing one other visible couple. She was very happy to oblige us. When a restaurant is full, I can understand…. But this was far from the case. The server was 5STAR ! Food 5STAR ! I will definitely try it again with hopes that it was a mistake on the management part. My hopes…”

I wanted a small and quaint space for the event. Courtney and all of her employees were AWESOME!! They were so helpful and caring, it made the event go so well. I cannot thank Courtney enough for the awesome space and the good food!!! I would rent this space out again for any event!! Thank you Couchland!!”

“We hired Mission BBQ to cater our wedding - the best decision we made for our event, hands down! The team was absolutely amazing, made sure that the bride and groom were taken care of completely, and even kept checking on the parent’s tables to make sure they were satisfied! My 93 year old grandfather was deeply moved by the team’s compassion towards him and their willingness to make sure that he personally was taken care of all through dinner! Mission’s team also helped us when our cake fell apart before the reception even started, a problem that was not theirs to fix, but they stepped up to help anyways and made sure that our day was the best it could be! And, our guests are still raving about the food! Everyone loved the meal and are saying it was the best food they have had at a wedding in years! Thank you Mission BBQ and the catering team for helping to make our day perfect!”

“Was in last night. Pizza came out fast and tasted amazing. Staff was super friendly and awesome as well.”

“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!”

“Amazing! This was our first time here for a family birthday party, and it did not disappoint. Mary was hands down the best waitress we’ve ever had—top-notch friendly, incredibly informative, and she truly made the entire night memorable. We can’t say enough great things about her. The drinks were outstanding. We tried five or six off the menu, and every single one was handcrafted and delicious. Favorites were the Old Fashioned, Cat’s Meow, espresso martinis, and my absolute favorite—the Frosted Sour. The food was out of this world, and the place itself is super cute with a great ambiance. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Great find! Would never have guessed a gem in a little strip mall. Super clean and tastefully decorated. (I am bias to Roosters however) Top notch service! The place was hopping and the staff stayed on top of it. Chefs super friendly and thanked us for coming. Food was promptly brought out hot, coffee cup was never empty. Great selection of breakfast items, we wanted to try everything! Reasonably priced! Highly recommend! Please support local establishments like The Sleepy Rooster!”

“I live out of state and my son-in-law just had emergengy surgery. I know how much he loves CRUMBL so I got him a 12 pak. When he got home. To say the least he loved them. Best gift ever!”

“I got a wrap for lunch today and it was outstanding!! If you are looking for a delish smoothie or an amazing healthy wrap make sure to try Be Smoothie you will not be disappointed!”

“We drove in from Valley City, the service was very friendly, the atmosphere was very nice, very clean the food was excellent!! We enjoy taking rides to different cities to see different parts of Ohio and restaurants, Pizzaeria DiLauro we will definitely be back!!!”

“Such an amazing restaurant! Craig, our bartender was so engaging and kept us laughing all afternoon! He also told us so many cool tidbits about the restaurant (e.g., the custom made chandelier in the background of my pic weighs 1,900 pounds and made out of metal nuts, ya know, like nuts and bolts, and is titled “The World is Nuts”). Now, let’s talk menu! The food is so delicious and the menu has so many options! The food is all freshly prepared, no frozen pre-packaged ANYTHING here! You can’t go wrong, especially at happy hour! LOL!!! Just go, already!!! You’ll thank me later!!!”
