50 Best American Restaurants near North Ridgeville

“First time there, would definitely go back. Food and service was great.“

“The food was good. Limited menu. But I was disappointed in my Lobster Flat Bread. The pic and what I got were nowhere close. I barely had any lobster, most pieces of flat bread didn’t have any lobster at all. The Calamari was tender and well-seasoned but not crispy. The breading seemed as if it had been sitting for a while. The drinks were good but pricey. The service was poor. Except the Sous chef, she was excellent. But the others were a bunch of young kids who all seemed to be brand new, unorganized, and not what i would expect in a place so expensive. The marinated Ahi Tuna was excellent. All of that being said, we enjoyed our time there, but $156 later, I doubt we will go back.“

“Party room was everything I hoped for. We brought our own food and drinks you! I believe it was 150 to rent the room for the four hours. We had option of a bar tender. Also very kid friendly!“

“Might just be one of the best burgers from a fast food joint that I have ever eaten. The Pretzel Bits were almost as good as the burger. I could eat those all day long. Service was very good and the tables were clean.
I highly recommend Culver's for my overall positive experience and a sublime burger! Will definitely be back.
5 Stars.“

Parking: When you park, they use headlights on = you need something.
Headlights off = you are okay and don’t need anything.

Kid-friendliness: You stay in your car and manage your own kids. Cars are coming in and out non stop don’t let them run around.“

“Double date night with family from out of town and we all absolutely loved everything. 5 different entrees and my addiction potatoes we shared it all and zero complaints. drinks were great too! love the atmosphere!“

“Went to the Cincinnati location and it was AMAZING! We ordered the cheddar scallion biscuits, Korean BBQ cauliflower, shrimp and grits, and the Szechwan Noodles. So much flavor in everything we tried. The wait staff was top notch. Our server Kevin was very attentive, checking on us to make sure all was ok and if we needed anything. There were also a few others that stopped by to see how we were doing and chat with us since we drove 250+ miles to eat there. They made us feel very welcome. I can’t wait to go back, it’s so worth the drive and I’m hoping they build one closer.“

“Been out of state for 5 years was looking forward to eating here again. Food is still pretty good. Nice waitress that let us move to a table when it became apparent my elderly guests wasn't going to be able to get in or out of the booth.

Parking: It's a local parking lot and not dedicated to just the restaurant. Any local event fills it up fast. Get there early.“

“Gabby and Mike are incredible, along with the kitchen staff and servers. Thankful to say I had the opportunity not only to dine, but to work for them both. Absolutely incredible experience, and they go above and beyond to make you feel like you’re family ❤️“

“A fav spot for a relaxing wonderful dining experience. I really enjoy sitting in the little dining area off to the right by the small bar area. The festive lights outside of the windows and decor throughout restaurant for holiday season provide a wonderful setting for a relaxing meal. Always experience great service here. The salmon was my go to but it is not available currently. Many other great menu options to try. Today I had a seasonal offering, the Cranberry Apple Salad, and an old fave, Brussels sprouts. Highly recommend a visit- makes any occasion a special one. Patio is great in summer too. Have enjoyed the perch and strawberry cheesecake here too.“

“Nice taste , liked the shake.“

“A delightful place, in a very cozy setting of a historic home. Our server was enthusiastically pleasant. As we were reviewing the menu a woman from the next table proclaimed that the scallops are a must have, she is a regular there. We had the lobster bisque. Great taste and generous chunks of lobster. The viscosity was curiously low for such a soup but was still very good. The temperature it was served at was also perfect. The scallops were very tasty and very consistent through the bite. The texture did not change in the center. The risotto was just right. The sea bass was a nice thick portion, also prepared so well. One very remarkable thing about our experience was not just that everything tasted great, but every last item was served at the perfect temperature. That really stood out as amazing. We will be back!“

“Great food nice list of beers and the bartenders always are friendly and very helpful with drink ideas“

“My husband and I were on vacation the second week of October. We decided to try a new restaurant our last night in town. The Cabin Club was just up the street from our hotel. We really enjoyed the ambiance once inside. Our server Jennifer was awesome. She made us feel welcome and had an answer for all our questions. She even gave us a history on the Cabin. The food was delicious. I ordered the cider glazed pork chop with cinnamon apples and green beans. Try this restaurant. We will definitely be back when we are in town again. Thank you Jennifer ?“

“We just wanted to give the Dawg House a HUGE shoutout and recommendation as the BEST sports bar and live music venue in all of Lorain County!! Not only do we play there periodically, our members frequent the Dawg House for their outstanding service, food and drink menu, and tremendous selection of live music acts on our nights off of gigging. Eric (owner) is the best bar owner we know, and he makes everyone feel welcomed and special when they visit. His staff is top notch, friendly and extremely attentive. If you want an outstanding experience watching sports, live music, playing trivia, or just enjoying their amazing food, you’ve found your place!!! 5 stars for sure!“
