42 Best American Restaurants near Northwood

“Excellent, excellent excellent!! I haven't been to Frisch's in a very long time and I know the chain is struggling as open times and drive through changes each week. This is a long ago favorite restaurant of mine and I recently moved back to the area after a 30 year absence. I am saddened to see it struggling. But yet stay the good and friendly place of my memories. Food was good, service kind and friendly and facility clean well maintained inside and out. Kudos to all who work hard to obtain this quality.“

“Dawn is an amazing waitress!! I ordered the rise and shine. Eggs were perfectly cooked, and ham and hashbrowns were good. But I have noticed that the ham is much thinner slice and hashbrowns were just a very small portion. For what they charge, there really should be more hashbrowns!“

“This is a great place to have an event. Good atmosphere, very clean, good food.“

“I loved the waiter Kaleb I believe was his name. He was by himself in our area very nice. Seemed like they might need another cook because it took a little while to get out food (not crazy long) but I overheard another customer complain about amount of time he had been waiting so... Other than that we love Applebee's

Vegetarian options: They do offer impossible whopper which is a huge deal for my husband and I because we don't eat beef or pork.

Parking: Plenty of free parking in close walking distance.“

“The banana nut pancakes were AMAZING!! Definitely recommend..the country omelet was good but those fried potatoes were GREAT! Would go back for sure.“

“EVERYTHING!!!! GREAT FOOD& AWESOME STAFF“

“We were on the way to Ontario and stopped here after reading the menu. What is a place like this doing in Toledo and not in Sarasota?
The food was extremely well presented and prepared for the price. This meal would be much more expensive in Sarasota. Even the wine choices were great.“

“THIS is what a diner should be! Quick friendly service, great coffee, and delicious food (without paying an arm and a leg). To top it off, they have a functioning jukebox ? (only accepts dollar bills, btw).

NOTE ‐ they do NOT accept any credit or debit cards. Cash only. Just stop at an ATM first. It's worth it. ?“

“We had breakfast at the Brim House after a night at The Renaissance Hotel. Our waitress was amazing, so kind and knowledgeable at the menu. We both did the build-your-own omelet, which was amazing. Their breakfast potatoes were to die for. We will be back!“

“The Lake Erie perch basket was delicious and our waitress Ayla was awesome. We will be back.“

“Been here multiple times and they always give me a reason to come back! Great customer service, the cooks are always nice and generous. Got an order of chilli cheese fries and 20 wings for 20 bucks, I originally ordered 15. You can’t beat that! My only wish is that they stayed open later! ?“

“First time visit for us, went during lunch on a Friday. Got a perfect parking spot and was sat right away! While I only grabbed a picture of our Mac and cheese (so comforting and delicious) but our entire lunch was scrumptious! A little pricey for what we got - (cheeseburger and Mac and chicken sandwich Mac and two drinks), but would definitely like to try a few more items on the menu.“

“had the Sausage Gravy and Biscuits, Sausage Gravy was Average but the biscuits were from a can. When you can peel layers its from a can. you can do better than that. you could buy a flat of biscuits better than the canned version.“

“Hands down, my favorite restaurant ever. You just can't go wrong with a Big Boy, with tarter sauce on it, and a side of crispy fries. I have ordered the same thing every time since I was a kid. If I see a Big Boy while out doing things, I make it a point to stop in for a bite. They never disappoint. The service is always fast and friendly, and the prices are right!

Kid-friendliness: Great selections on their kids menu“

“The only reason I keep coming back is because it's really good most times the food and the concrete mixer, the service is always with a smile but not 100% accuracy even though we repeat the order to make sure they got it right. No matter what, they always mess up our order. Does anybody else have the same problem?

Parking: You pull in parking is to your right and you can go around where the drive-thru is and park on your right again

Kid-friendliness: It's just a fast food joint with better food than most. So kids are welcome and they do go and it's always friendly

“We decided to go later in the evening after the play at Genoa Civic Theatre for some inexpensive appetizers. It had been a long day, but Abbi made our experience off the charts good! She was very attentive and made us feel like family. I feel like we may need to add her to our Christmas list! Thank you, Abbi for one heck of an outstanding experience. You're the best!!!“

“Great atmosphere and great service. Food is just ok considering the price. Steak is good but no better than I can cook it at home. For aged, top-quality beef I expected a little better. Mancy's has a great reputation and has been around since I was a kid so I always like dining there. Their food used to blow me away when I was younger and wish I could say the same now. The atmosphere and service is still great but I feel like you can get just as good of a meal at a much more reasonable price at other fine restaurants. Just my opinion.“

“We popped in for a quick drink after a family event and the service was quick and friendly!!“

“I had the union burger last evening. Not sure why, but I enjoy a fried egg on my burger. The burger was great and the seasoning on the fries was amazing!!“

“A sweet waitress went way above and beyond her duty, My husband, I and our two friends went in to Waters Edge Restaurant, my husband and our friends ordered, I ask if they had milk shakes because I told her I’m having problems swallowing food down, the food won’t go down. She said so sorry we don’t have milk shakes so I just ordered a root beer to drink while everyone ate (it’s ok though) our sweet waitress whipped up milk with ice whip cream and made me a milk shake with whipped cream and chocolate sauce on top. Brought me a big cup. I said oh wow! I love you thank you!! She said it complementary. She made my day how thoughtful and sweet of her to care so much about another person’s problems and health issues. The food looked delicious my husband and our two friends said it was. Thank you! I wish I would have got her name.“

“Best deli sandwiches in the area! Good selection, quality ingredients, excellent sizes.“

“Found this place coming back from dispensary after making a wrong turn. Waitress (Meg)was amazing, food was greatribs and the barbecue on point.“

“Affordable, Fast, and Attentive Service. Enjoyed a Chili Dog & Burger with a fries with a Red Cream Soda. Comfortable, casual, authentic.“

“The pasta dishes are always great! I love the Chicken Parmesan. Their homemade tomato pasta sauce (i.e. gravy) is one of the best in Toledo, and I've tried a lot sauces/gravies.“

“First timers and have to say, definitely a hidden gem! Started with French onion soup and huge, hand battered mushrooms. Long Island Iced Tea was awesome. Crazy Memphis style chicken sandwich with honey barbecue sauce and fries was my son’s choice. Hubby had a basic burger and fries. I chose the patty melt and tater tots. Nice that for those who ordered pop, that a pitcher is brought to the table for refills. Staff is attentive and friendly. We will definitely be back!“

“Great food. Friendly staff. Relaxing atmosphere.“
