“They are in the old Puritan Bakery building. Nice decor, great breakfast choices. I grew up around here and its nice to see the building reused like this. My wife and I came in town to visit my sister's and brother for Christmas. I'm a breakfast kind of guy and they hit all the right spots for me. Great menu choices. I had their southwest chorizo skillet with 2 eggs over easy cooked to perfection. Put this on your must go to list. We will be back next time we are in town. Excellent friendly service. Lots of regulars popping in and out, said hello to by name by the waitress.“

“Where do I start ? Came for dinner Wednesday night and then came for dinner Thursday again. That should say something . I’m beyond impressed by the Staff and the establishment, it beyond exceeded my expectations. We have a lot of fine dining in the Poconos region with some higher end restaurants and this place exceeded them. The quality of the food is superior. Take a look at some of the pics of the food we ordered. Ended up meeting Sean the head chef and impressed how he runs his kitchen , everything goes with the flow . Make sure you make a reservation :) we ended up not making one and we got seated over looking the kitchen and it was the best place. You see all the action. Can’t wait to come back from Poconos.

“Had an amazing dinner this Friday night. Lynn was fantastic. We have enough from each dinner for 2 or more meals. Heve not been there for a very long time. Excited to go back soon“

“Food is great, we found this on google, best find! Breakfast is reasonably priced, service is good.“

“I love eating at Gateway diner. It’s always a friendly experience. It feels like Home there. The staff is so kind that atmosphere is so warm. It’s got that true diner experience that you don’t often get anymore plus the pancakes slap.“

“Food is good, however in the past they along with other restaurants showed appreciation for Veterans by offering a complimentary meal to the Veteran(s) on Veterans Day. They don't do that anymore. Now its a complimentary ice cream desert and a gift card for an appetizer for your next visit. Don't come here Veterans... dont come here on Veterans Day. Go to Outback or Applebee's where you can actually feel appreciated the one day out of the year.“

“great ambiance, superior food!“

“Had dinner last night at the bar. The bartenders were excellent as usual and the food was great. Thanks!“

“We reviewed Hello Bistro in Beachwood OH, well JRK did because Joe was too busy "working"...... Tried the Tex Mex burger – looked great, but it was tiny and bland. I was expecting flavor fireworks, but it was more like a flavor fizzle. The avocado was the highlight though! The fries were fresh and tasty, and the house-made ranch? Chef’s kiss. As for the chocolate chip cookie… I thought it was fresh, but it was more like a sad, store-bought rock. Tex Mex Burger 5.5 Hand cut fries 6.1 House Made Ranch 8.2 Chocolate Chip Cookie 2.0“

“Concord Family Restaurant is an absolute gem in Painesville, Ohio ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted like family. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and genuinely seems to care about their customers. The food is consistently delicious — real comfort food with generous portions at very reasonable prices. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner, you really can’t go wrong. The restaurant is always clean, cozy, and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for families, friends, or even a solo meal. Service is quick, coffee is always topped off, and they’re great with kids and larger groups too. If you’re in the Painesville/Concord area and want a great meal with even better service, Concord Family Restaurant is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“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. 🙂“

“Yours Truly is great! The food is always good! Ive never had anything that wasn't amazing. The service is always nice and friendly. Once seated, you do get served pretty quickly. There can sometimes be a wait but its worth it. Definitely a kid friendly place.“

“My wife and I very much enjoyed every aspect of our evening at Austin's. Every interaction was pleasant and from the door to the table. Our server gave a wonderful description of unique options on the menu and was clearly very knowledgeable of everything Austin's had to offer. The wait time on our meals was extremely reasonable, and our cups never ran empty. The food was absolutely top quality and left us both wanting to try more on the menu. We both look forward to our next visit.“

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

“Great food and great shakes“

“Long time customer from when they took over the yesterdays restaurant. Years ago it was much better. The spaghetti was really a bolognese sauce that was AMAZING and would have been a $20 plate in other restaurants. That was 20 years ago. When they went to a marinara I asked why? And the owner told me no one would order it with the name bolognese lol. And they wanted a simple marinara sauce. Oh well. The rest of the menu started to suffer some when they started to open more restaurants. They started to not give a dinner roll when they use too, less stuff on a simple side salad. Saving a penny here and there. I know others that feel the same way. Mary's is still a good place. Fast service, always seem friendly lol. But it use to be very very good. Breakfasts are always great. Not much to change there. But some things show the cut backs to seemingly fund more restaurant. We use to go far more often then now. But we still go, and still happy with everything. But if you are a long term customer you saw the changes. Scale of 5 stars I would have gave it a solid 5 before. And I am a TOUGH grader on things as you can tell. Now about a 3.75. Service 4.75 Price 4.50 Food 3.00 I place a heavier value on the food as it is the real reason people go to a restaurant. TO EAT. Madison and Geneva is better to have them for sure. But we have so few good restaurants. What we need is a good deli. Not sure why but everything is pizza or fast foods or Italian. I would suggest a couple new things on the menu. Thank you for your contribution to our community. Tom“

“Nice patio area. Reasonable prices and large menu selection.“

“My first visit was a resounding success! I ordered the fish sandwich and fries along with an order of soul rolls. The fish was delicious and I was really full from it, but I had to bite into one of the soul rolls. Before I knew it, I had ate half of it and I knew I was full already. It was just so delicious that I couldn’t stop taking bites. Everything was prepared fresh and I didn’t wait long either. I definitely recommend them and will be back myself.“

“the Burek is amazing! I love the cheesecake they have.“

“This is the best bar ever“

“The food was really good, the two gentleman that served us was awesome! I I just didn’t like that. They seated me in the bar area and it was my fiancé’s birthday and I also made reservations. We didn’t get the candle light or the heated patio, the romantic things so I was, unhappy about that.“

“They take reservations for only inside, but don't always honor them. They said we would have to wait until people left. So they sat us outside in the cold. The hostesses were a bit rude. And we had a reservation both times! If you want to enjoy the patio, get there super early to go on a wait list. That is if you can find a parking spot. There doesn't seem to be enough parking. Food was good both times and our servers were great!“

“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!!!“

“Great atmosphere, amazing drink selections, food was good and our waitress Gabby was awesome!“

“Excellent dinner for our first time at Brown Barn Tavern! And the Brown Barrel appetizer was to die for and the service was top notch. They even gave us a free glass of champagne! Thank you to Ben. We will definitely be back . Highly recommend.“

“This is such a hidden gem at the mall! Omg, I love the fries. They are carnival style and seasoned well. First time, I got the Chicago dog and second time, I got the one with pimento cheese. Is this place super cheap? Nope. They're making homemade fries though and I feel like the hot dogs are pretty tasty! My husband loves their smash burger too!“

“We had such a great time playing there!! Great crowd and friendly service toward the Pawn Band.“

“Haven’t been to JT’s Diner for about two years. Thought we’d give it a try as we remembered it being good at their previous location. We were very disappointed in our breakfasts. My crisp bacon was burnt to a crisp with burnt taste upon first bite. Our home fries used to be excellent “sliced” potato’s, but yesterday came as mush and the scrambled eggs were not even cut….just folded like an omelet. Coffee was good and hot, as in the past. For $20.53 I expected better. Don’t think I would return.“

“We stopped at the Concord store after doing some shopping and we were not dissapointed. Our Waitress Courtney was Spicy and fun she was very knowledgeable of the Menu and Specials. I ordered the dbl Smash Burger and added onions which was amazing and very tasty with fries and the fries were perfectly made and not over salted my wife ordered the Hot and bothered burger with fries and it was quite tasty. The place has plenty of Televisions for the game. And a nice selection of IPAs and draft beer. I definitely recommend this nice little burger joint. Plenty of close Parking and alot of options to select from the Menu.“

“Enjoyed listening to Forecasts“

“I’m new to the area and the serving staff is very friendly and helpful. Had meatball sub which was very good. They make their own hoagie rolls. Salad was crisp and fresh. Breaded chicken wings crunchy and delicious (hot sauce and blue cheese)“

“Nice atmosphere and friendly staff!“

“Thank you so much to Greg & staff for a wonderful Celebration of Life Party for my Mother in law. Staff was friendly & fast & the food was wonderful! I would definitely recommend having a party again at The Stadium!“

“Loved our visit, great unique meal. and loved all our selections. Small intimate place with a wonderful menu.“

“Great breakfast. Be sure to get their App, deals will arrive. Their $5 take homes are always welcome on busy days. If you are there for a late lunch or dinner try their super large hamburger or pork chops. As a plus the wife loves going through the store looking for deals.“

“Great breakfast. You can even make a fresh made malt or shake with it!“

“Fantastic lunch with a great friend! couldn't decide between a couple items so the waitress suggested their Toofer - basically a soup and sandwich. I got the Seafood Bisque cup and a half Ruben sandwich. Both tasted great and waitress was spot on (there when we needed her and not there when we didn't need her). I'll definitely go back and try other menu options! RECOMMEND!“

“This was the 1st time eating here & won't be the last!!Cafe was packed but only had a short wait & well worth it. Food was delivered fresh & hot, waitress very attentive. All employees were friendly, perfessional & smiling. Even the owner was busting tables & friendly.“

“awesome service, very friendly and delicious food!“

“Amazing food! Best dinner I have had in a long time- service was great, but food was over the top.“

“My parents took me out for my 57th birthday to celebrate. When we arrived we were seated immediately which was really nice. We had an amazing waitress by the name of Jenna. Service was impeccable our meal was brought out in a timely manner and the food was very delicious.Everything we needed she never had any problem with going to get and I am really grateful and thankful again for the experience that she gave to us being there. We need more waitresses like her that make you feel special in spite of your skin color. Thank you Jenna for making our experience at the roadhouse a good one.“

“Never disappointing ! Always something new to try off the menu. All very good.“

“I love this place. The staff is what makes me come here frequently. They are amazing, friendly, and they go above and beyond every single service. Food is made with the utmost love and the drinks are served to satisfy with every sip. RWB is my go to. You all make my day every time I visit. I appreciate all your hard work and dedication to every service. Thank you all!!! We’ll see you again soon!!!“
