“As a resident of Mentor, Ohio, I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Wendy’s located at 5985 Andrews Rd, Mentor On The Lake, OH, 440601. Let me share my thoughts on this establishment.Atmosphere and ServiceUpon entering, I was greeted by a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The restaurant was clean, and the staff seemed genuinely friendly. The morning sun streamed through the windows, creating a warm ambiance. Whether you choose to dine in, hit the drive-thru, or opt for delivery, Wendy’s remains committed to serving its customers with care and efficiency.The Breakfast DelightThis visit marked my first time trying Wendy’s breakfast menu, and I must say, I was impressed. The options were diverse, and the prices were reasonable. I ordered the classic Bacon, Egg & Cheese Croissant, and it exceeded my expectations. The croissant was flaky, the bacon crispy, and the egg perfectly cooked. It was a delightful departure from my usual fast-food breakfast haunt (looking at you, McDonald’s). Wendy’s nailed it with their morning offerings.A Few HiccupsNow, no review is complete without a touch of constructive feedback. The fries were a tad oily and saltier than I prefer. And the chili—usually a Wendy’s highlight—wasn’t up to par. It tasted somewhat “watery,” lacking the robust flavor I associate with their chili. Perhaps it was an off day, but I hope they address this inconsistency4.Final VerdictWendy’s in Mentor offers a solid breakfast experience. If you’re tired of the same old morning routine, give their croissants a try. The friendly staff, led by Angel and his brother, adds a personal touch that sets this location apart. Just be mindful of the fries and chili. Overall, I’d rate it 3.5 out of 5 stars. Wendy’s, keep up the good work, and continue serving your community with those fresh, never-frozen ingredients we all appreciate5.Parking: There is around 10-15 parking spots on store location. With almost unlimited spaces on adjoining lots“
“As always, a wonderful experience. Manon was a top-rate server. Hubs had the lobster/shrimp soup and raved about it. He also loved his pork chops; thick and perfectly cooked. The tomato bisque soup comes with grilled cheese croutons; very imaginative and delicious! We saw lots of people leaving with pizzas; will have to try one the next time we're here. Love the Cupcake of the Day.We have come here during standard dinner hours and have not been able to find a parking spot. That's the price we pay for enjoying a very popular restaurant. We have learned to come during other times.“
“If you have never been here, it is a very small neighborhood style bar. We went mid afternpps on a Monday in hopes of beating the rush, We did not beat the rush. We ended up sitting at the bar, which is not our ideal but doable. They were busy and it was noisier than what we like. The staff were very attentive and welcoming to everyone. As great as the staff was the food is the star. We ordered the smash burger and they did not disappoint. We have heard and read good things about them, nothing could have prepared us for how delicious they were. The burgers were juicy, piping hot and the best burgers we have had in, well I can't remember the last time. The fries, some of the best we have had in a while s well. We will definitely be back for more smash burgers and to try some of the other food. Probably will get the food to go though.“
“I had the grilled shrimp with a side of rossoto. The ship was grilled exactly how I like it, not too tough and not too crunchy. The rossoto had a wonderful consistency and flavor throughout. The Jack Daniel's bread putting with ice cream was one of the best deserts I have had in the area. You must check the restaurant out.“
“First visit, really enjoyed it. Service was prompt and friendly. Ordering was easy once we told them it was our first visit.We had double cheeseburgers, fries and a tasty strawberry shake. Burger was made to order and delicious.While I'd prefer to eat at a table, eating in the car wasn't so bad, and it's for the experience.Handy tip for other first timers, park your car so that the number on the pavement is at your hood.***Update 2/2024***Service was outstanding! Food was delicious. Another great visit.Parking: Park so they can see your headlights.“
“A couple of times a year I come to Mentor to visit friends for a weekend, and everytime I make it a point to have breakfast here every morning.Friendly efficient staff, great food, and a comfortable atmosphere. I don't think I need to say more.“
“1st time there the employees were awesome! This is the best pizza in this area. Biagios i haven't had it in a while ill have it this week if I don't change this then my words stand! But even delivery it was just so good. Heated it up next day. The crust was even better. There deep dish is a little different than other places but this place is just located in a bad spot. When I pulled up I almost didn't go in“
“My favorite local hangout spot, the service is always top tier and the food is always on point! The wings are always great, the burgers big and juicy not overcooked, the brisket perogies are really good and the dill dipping sauce with fried pickles are delicious! Stop in if you're ever out this way, it's gonna be one of your favorites.“
“First time getting food from Trader Jack's and it was amazing! I got the Big Jack which is a double stack burger very similar to a Bob's Big Boy, BUT BETTER IN EVERY WAY. It's like a Big Boy for adults. Everything about it was perfect, especially the sauce. Fries were excellent as well. Staff was friendly and efficient. I will definitely be ordering from here again!“
“What a wonderful experience. We were actually in route to eat somewhere else nearby but it looked to be way too crowded. While driving around I notice The Gateway Diner and decided to try it.Wow. The food was great. The environment was great. The service was fantastic.This will definitely be a new breakfast and lunch spot for us.“
“We dined in 03/09/2024. The night was very busy due to an amazing band. The service was amazing we were a part a birthday celebration group. The waitress was very prompt as soon as we sat down she took drink and app/food orders. For drinks we ordered a pickle martini hubby said it was very good. I had the espresso martini with espresso bean in the drink it was good but the star was the peanut butter martini. Now on to the food we ordered the spinach dip it was pretty bland and flavor less so we sent it back. Now on to the amazing fish and chips it was seasoned to perfection and the fries were delicious it comes with house made tarter (kinda weird, mayo and pickles) and ketchup. We also ordered the lobster ravioli plate and it was amazing and full of flavor. The tempura shrimp was also amazing just missing cocktail sauce. I can't wait to dine and have spirits here again.“
“Great Dairy Queen. Reciept day is when whatever amount you purchase on that day's reciept, you can redeem on another day for free. No limit to the $$ amount.They are always fast and accurate. Great staff. It is a full grill and chill so they serve burgers, fries, and chicken tenders along with the usual ice cream treats.“
“Your typical small town dive bar vibes -- a bar with stools and some tables and chair options. They also offer a patio area in the warmer months. My family and I have been coming here for years to celebrate birthdays, graduations, etc. and we've had Lino's cater several of our events. They have the best wings!! They're always fresh and extra crispy, and I love their hot garlic Parmesan and hot BBQ flavors. I also love their mini corn dogs -- the honey mustard dipping sauce is delicious. The bartenders are usually pretty friendly and quick to get your order. They do get busy during game days so plan accordingly. We've never had to wait long when placing carry out orders and have never had an issue finding a table when needed.“
“We wanted to try something new in the area that wasn’t typical fast food. I found Clean Eatz via the Door Dash app. It took a bit to decide because they had so many items that sounded great. We settled on the bang bang shrimp wrap and the Arnold wrap with sweet potato fries and the veggie cup. Both were outstanding. The portion sizes were large enough that each was enough for two meals. Both were very fresh tasting and had an excellent balance between meat/grain/veggie. Clean Eatz turned out to be an excellent choice and will be added to our list of great places to eat.“
“This casual burger joint is as expected. The menu is written cleverly, plentiful non-burger options, and a decent beer selection. Both beers we wanted were out, but we happily ordered a different selection. Service was friendly, but they were very busy, so it a little slow but no big deal. The place is full of TVs so if you're into sports watching and such, this is a place for you. The outoor/indoor patio was a bonus.All in all, it was good. My only suggestion is that fries, onion rings, and burgers were likely made from frozen and bought in. For a $20 burger, I was hoping that the fries or onion rings would have been house made, but it's a chain restaurant, so it was fairly expected.We'd return but it wouldn't be our first choice. I didn't feel it was all that different from any other chain. A full 4 stars for meeting the expectations, and again, the service was good.“
“OMG excellent chicken Alfredo & my grilled chicken salad was the bomb!! Whomever the cook is....LIKES no LOVES his job. Everything was neat, and boxed nicely. Got 2 dressings with my salad DIDNT EVDN HAVE TO ASK.Will be back , for the food for CERTAIN!!!“
“What can I say? Five Guys is always a long wait....but only because your food is made to order right in front of you . The burgers and fries are amazing, but I personally save this place for special occasions. It's on the pricey side, but worth every penny. The shakes are bomb ? too!“
“We stopped in for a bit tonight to see a band play, ended up having a really great experience! The place is clean, staff is incredibly friendly, and service was excellent. Look forward to coming back with our kayaks when Summer returns and enjoy the food, and atmosphere. Great place, great people!“
“Our server Samantha made the experience the best. The food was great as always. Ask for Samantha to get taken care of! We appreciate the kindness, it goes a long way.Parking: Always packed, but always a spot so turnover is fast. So you know it's good!“
“Honestly I would give a 0 star rating but not sure that’s an option.. food was delicious, atmosphere was fine. The service was atrocious, I was rudely greeted by a worker and aggressively attacked while for saying “k” following the aggressive attitude i was told “Do yall got something to say” and “what’s your problem “ I am a loyal coustumer to this institution now i will be taking my business to elsewhere… what a shame I really enjoyed watching my brother become fat through this service.Kid-friendliness: The girl was a brat to us kids.“
“My wife went to grab some Romanburgers for the workers at our house. This place was fast and efficient. And the food was FANTASTIC! She said the gentlemen there was extremely helpful explaining the different sizes and options! Highly recommend! 5/5!“
“The young man that waited on me inside was outstanding! His was so friendly and courteous. His customer service was excellent. He seemed so happy to be working there. I was there at 5:30pm in Oct 4th so if anyone knows who this kid is please tell his manager what a great job he did!“

“Good BBQ but best wings ever. We’ve tried a lot of wings from a lot of different places but the smoked wings with dry rub & sweet glaze were the best we’ve had. We went back & took 32 home with us 2 days after we had them. We live 2 hrs south and went to Smokey Bones based on TripAdvisor reviews (while on a get away weekend.)“
“Ordered online for curbside pick up. Entered the number of the space I was in and waiting. After waiting 15 minutes, I went inside to find out where my order was. Was told it went out already. So they remade the order, and after 25 minutes, I had my food.“
