“I did not get anything to eat. When I walked in, I saw the sign CASH ONLY. I normally do not carry cash on me. There is NO ATM on site. I didn't feel like driving to get cash and come back. Maybe the next time I'm in the area and have cash, I'll stop in.“

“LaCole took on my New Year's Day luncheon with very limited notice from me. However, even with the short time to prepare, she knocked it out the park. She had a menu for me within hours, very professionally put together. On the day of, she came in plenty of time to setup...and The FOOD was beyond my expectations. My guest raved about evey dish. LaCole is top tier and I am grateful to have a Chef and Caterer like her to call on!“

“This place was wonderful. I can't wait to come back with my kiddos. So many video games from years gone by, and board games too. The venue it is connected to is fantastic. Loved the atmosphere. If you are in need of quick good food, or have an afternoon to kill this spot is the place to go!“

“Loved it, best food I have had in decades“

“Went back to Moe’s for dinner and everything was incredible. The food, service and atmosphere have always been consistently great every time we go. Whether a special occasion or date night, things are consistently great. We enjoyed the crab cakes as an appetizer, the duck breast with scalloped goat cheese potatoes as entree 1 and for entree 2, the braised short ribs in pomegranate glaze with the squash risotto.
The crab cakes were big and very dense. So good I forgot to take a picture. The risotto was incredible: very rich, creamy and not too cheesy. Extremely hard to find a good risotto in restaurants. I wish the pomegranate glaze on the short ribs was a bit more fruity but it was still incredible! The duck was good but the potatoes were the star of the dish! The goat cheese really defined all the flavors of the entree. Always look forward to returning and having another incredible meal!! We walked over to the more relaxed bar area after formal dinner and the cocktails were great. The staff on both sides was incredible as always.“

“Food is good - when they are open. Saturday at 2:30 they were already closed. If business is slow or they are shorthanded, they close. Hours are never reliable. Call first. PS - not trans-gender friendly. I know someone who was told that they can’t use the bathroom there.“

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

“We went today and had an amazing experience. The food and service were incredible! Highly recommend“

“Everything here is good but this place has the best onion rings ever!“

“I found Eddie's last year & I will not go anywhere else now. Eddie is the best chef in town, & Brandie is the best hostess ever. The food is great, reasonable priced, & the portions are enormous.“

“Great food, great environment, friendly. Well worth a visit!“

“Went with my In-laws this past Friday. The parking was awkward making it difficult to exit to the front of the building. The food, drinks and service were top notch. However, I thought the 3% up charge for using a credit card vs cash to pay the bill was a bit petty due to the already inflated menu prices. This left me wondering; why the owner thought it was more important to cover their $5 cost at the expense of me returning again?“

“Nice service and good food.“

“Anything I've ever tried off the menu here has been delicious. They have specials for each day and I recommend trying the special of the day. Also they make great drinks ! I recommend the Jamaican Mule, I get it every time, it's delicious. Food wise you can't go wrong. The owner throws down in the kitchen, especially with the seafood and burgers. Talk about good seasoning, everything's seasoned delightfully. My favorites so far are the Shrimp Quesadillas (Tuesday is quesadilla day) , their Summit Lake fries and every Friday is fish Friday with a great deal on yellow tailed perch fried to perfection. This place is tastier than any sit down restaurant in the area trust me. 10/10“

“We love the staff!!!! Especially Rachelle!“

“We eat there every Thurs. sometimes just 3 sometimes a group of 7 or more. the staff is fantastic food is fantastic! thank you for being so accommodating!“

“this was my first time here, amazing“

“On Saturday, March 21, 2026 I put together an event with some of my friends - A Fella's Night - and I chose Rosewood Grill in Hudson as the place we would dine. I spoke with the manager, James, and we got it all set up. All of my friends had a wonderful time! They all loved the restaurant! The food was excellent! Mary-Ann and Coral took very good care of us!

I started with a house salad. For my entree I had the Delmonico Ribeye. It was perfectly cooked! Alongside that was a loaded Baked Potato and a plate full of the largest most beautiful shrimp I've ever seen! Mary-Ann recommended a red wine that paired very nicely with my meal. I hate that I didn't take any pictures. I was too busy having fun with my friends!

The night went off without a hitch. (Well, maybe a small hitch. I did get charged twice for the shrimp I got. Thus the 4 stars. But...) My friends and I had a really good time! I would absolutely recommend this establishment for a night out.

Thank you all for a wonderful night to remember!“

“The Galley Boy is a good sandwich, however, i don't see it as an award winning burger. There are other burgers around that i personally think are better. That being said, I still get hungry for a Galley Boy every now and then. Service was good as always.“

“Absolutely incredible, I tried the traditional Mac and cheese because if you cannot get that right, when it comes to special Mac chances are that won’t be good either. I cannot wait to go back and try some of the other menu options. The staff is extremely friendly to top it all off! Glad to have you guys in the Falls, def something different! 👏🏼🙌🏼“

“Dined at Fisher's last nite . Food and service was good as usual ! Was surprised by a 2.5% Credit Card Fee !!! Do give a discount for Cash ? As a retired retailer I find this in poor taste !!! I always consider this a cost of doing business!!!“

“Our waiter was CORAY and he was amazing he refilled asked he was prompt. He was polite and he was happy. I would recommend asking for him.“

“Food was really good, but the service was even better! We had the privilege of having Gracie wait on us and she was super nice, and patient as she answered all our questions. If I were to recommend one thing, I say go for the onion rings! Fresh, hot, crunchy and not greasy at all. It's definitely a place we will be coming back to.“

“Amazing food, really clean, nice atmosphere. The server was so sweet and on it. Can’t wait to go back“

“Absolutely delicious chef specials on Thursdays! Will definitely be back!“

“Love to stop in for quick bite or a fun drink. Happy Hour is the best. The patio and deck are great in warmer temps. Great craft beer list.“

“Best diner food in Akron! Service is fast and the servers are wonderful. Always packed and the food is why. Short wait times because they are so quick. Can't beat the steak and eggs special on Saturdays. 💜“

“I love this place. They make the food as soon as you order it so it is always fresh. I always get the chicken pita with grilled peppers & mushrooms, lettuce, tomato and gyro sauce. I love that you can get a side of fruit, pineapple instead of chips. I highly recommended this place.“

“Vibez was definitely a vibe! Friendly staff, they get you when you come in. The place was clean, and good music was playing. The drinks are delicious! I had the mango strawberry lemon drops, and they were so good! But besides the good drinks and the great atmosphere, the food!!! Those fried green tomatoes!!! Top tier!!!! The soul rolls, top tier!!! So good! Well definitely come back!“

“Great food, drinks and atmosphere and out server Autumn was great and very attentive.“

“If you want something more than the typical hospital cafeteria food, then try Virtues. They are located on the ground floor of Akron Summa hospital. I am at the hospital because a family member is having surgery, and this restaurant was recommended by the desk staff. You walk to the counter and order. They give you a buzzer that signals you when the order is ready. I had the signature BLT and a side Ceasar salad. The salad was good size, lettuce was crisp and fresh. The BLT is served on sourdough bread and had a chitpotle mayo that gave it a good flavor and just a tinge of heat. For expecting "hospital" food, this was a pleasant surprise. It cost me just under $20 for the sandwich, salad, and a fountain drink.“

“Hele aardige mensen en lekker gegeten!! Aanrader“

“Rockne's Kent: Max the Knife & Steak Salad Success!
Rockne's in Kent delivered a truly satisfying meal. I conquered the famous Max the Knife burger, and it lived up to the hype—four juicy, cheesy patties layered in a triple-bun, a delicious and massive feast! My wife chose the Steak Salad, which was equally impressive. The steak was tender, perfectly seasoned, and served over a fresh bed of greens with their excellent fries and grilled pita. The vast menu and generous portions make this a winner for any craving. For great food and friendly service, Rockne's is a staple!“

“We had an exceptional experience at North End 2.0 tonight.
A quick note for first-time visitors: although they open earlier for wine and retail bottle sales, dinner service does not begin until 5:00 pm, and they are not taking reservations yet. We arrived at 4:30 and were happy to enjoy a bottle of wine while we waited—but it’s helpful to know there is no food service prior to 5.
Once dinner began, everything was outstanding. Our server recommended a bottle of wine that was absolutely excellent and set the tone for the evening.
We started with the beet carpaccio special, served with an incredible assortment of bread—pita and a lovely Italian bread—alongside olive oil, balsamic, and Parmesan. Truly delicious.
For entrées, I ordered the Alaskan sablefish, and my husband had the short rib with gnocchi. Both dishes were exquisitely prepared—mouthwatering, beautifully balanced, and deeply satisfying. I honestly cannot remember the last time I cleaned my plate at a restaurant. If it hadn’t been socially inappropriate, I might have licked it.
The service and atmosphere were attentive without being overbearing. Our server checked in thoughtfully, the owner stopped by to make sure we were happy, and another staff member followed up as well—it was clear there is a genuine commitment here to hospitality and excellence.
We finished by sharing a dessert that deserves special mention: a salted caramel chocolate chip cookie stuffed with strawberry cheesecake ice cream. NOT One bite was left behind! Looking forward to another visit soon.“

“the chili cheese dog is magical lol. catfish and Mac and cheese is the way to go“

“We had a wonderful dinner on October 7th with friends. This is the 4th visit to this restaurant, and each time has been very good. We have used the movie suites as well and enjoyed that experience. ON October 7th, our server Brittany was AWESOME, and we will request her in our future visits. Thanks for a great evening, Brittany!“

“I’ve been there a few times with my family. The atmosphere and service were impressive, and outstanding. During our experiences there we had Andrea as our waitress. She was very attentive, prompt and always had a smile on her face. She was very friendly and it was apparent to me she really loved her job! I would strongly recommend Wally Waffle and don’t forget to ask for Andrea!“
