“They’re consistently amazing, but I tried the crab cake appetiser tonight and I’m blown away! Truly excellent. They’ve got the kindest staff and best service. I tend to go for the same things (fried egg sandwich or smoked salmon BLT) more often than not, but I’ve never had a meal that is anything less than scrumptious even when I branch out!“

“This is our favorite place to go for Breakfast! A friend of ours referred us here a few years ago and we haven’t stopped going there since. They have great service and great food. Such a friendly atmosphere and you can tell that they have so many repeat customers. That’s always a good sign! Highly recommend!“

“There was 7 of us total including 2 kids that came in for dinner. It was busy and we only waited about 5 minutes for a table. The waitress was wonderful and attentive, food was good.

“Fantastic Atmosphere. It's a local Gem Hiding in Elyria. I Have not encountered any poor visits. Food is always good. They will hook you up with their seasonal beverages and entrée's. Tell them Sashi reccomended it.“

“This place is AMAZING!!!!!! Hidden gem!!!! I'm so glad we stopped to eat here!!!! We ordered the brisket with Mac & cheese, mondo burger, and the chopchz Philly. EVERYTHING was delicious. The Mac & cheese was literally the BEST mac & cheese I've ever eaten at a restaurant. The brisket was GREAT!!!! Burger was cooked perfect. I brought the chop chopchz Philly home to my husband and he ate it COLD and still thought it was good!!!! The atmosphere was inviting, restaurant was clean, waitress was very friendly and attentive. We live outside of Toledo but whenever we are back out this way we will DEFINITELY stop by again!!!“

“Just visited here with my boyfriend tonight and we were the only people in the front dining room! The food was great and very great value. Feel like they are getting screwed because of the construction right there. Would have went past it myself if my boyfriend hasn’t been there before and pointed it out. Very much recommend. Will be back very soon. :)“

“The Nest at Grey Hawk Golf Club offers a diverse and delightful dining experience, evident from its well-received weekday specials to it's live music. I really appreciate a place that supports live local artists. Usually the unsigned artists are way more talented than the mainstream ones. Have you heard of Master T.C. & The Visitors. they are one of the best Ohio bands I've seen you would love them and they would go perfect with the vibes of The Nest. Ive seen The Domans and Billy Likes Soda. Will definitely be back for more live music! The variety on the menu, spanning from appetizers and flatbreads to steak and live music on Fridays, showcases the establishment's commitment to offering a range of enjoyable options for its patrons. The Nest at Grey Hawk Golf Club is a versatile and inviting spot, appealing to both food enthusiasts and those seeking an enjoyable evening out. Its also the perfect place to go on a date or just a night to hang out with friends! We will be back soon for sure!“

“Great place for Drinks and Food! Awesome Selection of Bands that they Bring in and love the Karaoke nights!“

“Had to eat out due to power outage. Cracker Barrel was first choice for a good meal being without power for five days. Had the Country Chicken dinner and thoroughly enjoyed. Toof off some of the stress. Thank you..“

“After a long day on the interstate, we walked across the parking lot of our hotel to eat at the Charleston, WV location recently. I didn't have high expectations, because some of the reviews weren't the greatest. My dinner was outstanding, and I want everyone to know that! My pork steak was tender, juicy, and flavorful. The green beans and house chips were nicely seasoned and delicious. Ordered apple nachos for dessert, quite good, but next time (and there will be a next time) I will ask them to substitute the pita chips with an extra scoop of vanilla ice cream...“

“We had such a wonderful time today with our Women's Ministry. The food was delicious and the service was wonderful. Thank you again.“

“The waiter Anthon was great at the Ruby Tuesday in Elyria,OHIO and the food was amazing.“

“Food was good, but the temperature in there is ridiculous. With all the business you have, I think you can afford central air. Definitely won't go again in the Summer.“

“Our first visit to Wolfe's and we were quite impressed. Seated at a window table in the bar, very comfortable. Greeted by Eileen who was super nice. Went over the menu with us, took our drink order. Ordered a pepperoni & sausage calzone to start. DELICIOUS!!! Dave had a steak salad and I had grilled cheese sandwich with chips. We finished the afternoon off by ordering 2 specialty pizzas to go. I can't stress enough the excellent service Eileen gave us. We will definitely be back and ask for a table with Eileen. Thank you, Eileen! Carol and Dave“

“Yummy! Me and my hubby stopped in after our appointments today. Had a delicious breakfast. I got corned beef hash, sunny side up egg and he got chopped steak and eggs and we split some pancakes 🥞. Everything was cooked to perfection, flavorful and great price. Waitress was a sweetheart too! This is the type of place we both grew up eating at with our grandparents. Hope to bring our kids with us in the future one day. Happy customers!“

“We drove from Sandusky, Ohio to have breakfast here. We travel all over for breakfast. price was ok, online says cheaper than what it is when you get there. it is $1.50 extra for the sausage patties. my son loves biscuits and gravy, he tried to take a bite and it had no flavor. my bacon was so over cooked it crumbled. the home fries where hot, but tasted like bland boiled potatoes. and there was something in my food I had no idea what it is. waitress noticed we didn't eat anything except the toast and my husband drank his coffee. the waitress was ok, she did adjust my bill. I ended up paying $25 for 2 pieces of toast and a cup of coffee.“

“My husband and I had a looooong day moving. Our server Aaliyah was freaking awesome getting us our drinks and we had quite a few refills but she was on top of everything. Really cool person and we're definitely going back! Thanks girl!“

“Great steak that melts in your mouth! Owner has awesome personality as well. Will be back for sure!!“

“My family and I traveled back to our hometown in Ohio for a funeral. We wanted to have some fun to cheer us up and we got in late, so this was the only place open later on a Sunday. We were so happy that we could let go and have a nice time together for some affordable bowling and some good food. The bartender was very helpful and she gave great service. Thank you to the staff for lightening our night last week.“

“LaGrange Tavern Review

LaGrange Tavern is a cozy neighborhood spot with a laid-back atmosphere and solid American pub fare. The menu includes classics like burgers, wings, and sandwiches, often with a creative twist. Drinks are reasonably priced, and the bar has a good selection of beers and cocktails. Service is friendly and efficient. Great for casual nights out, watching a game, or grabbing a bite with friends.“

“We ate there over the weekend... i had the roast beef sandwich... it was awful.... roast beef was tough on two hard pieces of bread and the mashed potatoes weren't good no taste... don;t waste your money plenty of other places that have goof food.“

“Recommended to come here by a local friend. Bartender was friendly & attentive. Ordered the app sampler. It was really good. Liked their bbq sauce w tenders. Ordered 2 burgers w fries. Fresh fries came out perfect. Our burgers were cooked exactly to requested temp. Fresh veggies on top. Nice grill taste & juicy without making bun soggy. Good price for the size of the burgers. The bar is very nice inside. Passing the recommendation on!“

“Our server Lisa was amazing. It was very busy but she was on top of everything. Our drinks and food came out very fast and she was so attentive with refills and sides. She was also very nice and informative. Best experience I’ve had at a restaurant. She deserves a raise“

“Food is excellent, as well as the service. Ask for David he will take great care of you!“

“My husband and I arrived just before closing on a Sunday night. The staff was incredibly kind---even welcomed us with a smile.
Our server was Melissa. She was attentive and and treated us as if it was the beginning of her shift. I am now re-evaluating how I approach my employment. I finished my meal inspired to do a better job where I work---and most of all, to be more kind.
Thank you to all of those working on a Sunday night February 23, 2025.“

“I had a really great waitress wish I could remember her name. She was on top of everything didnt have to aske for napkins, a refill or a take home container. Didnt feel rushed and was super nice. Very Charismatic. 10/10 food was good and service over the top.“

“Great service. Great food. Peaceful atmosphere.“
