“First time at Manhattan's. Really came for the Reuben but ended up getting their Carnegie. The sandwich was big and was split between the two of us. Started off with the French Onion soup. Best I've had in Toledo. The corned beef and pastrami on the sandwich was generous and delicious. The pickled green tomato was a crunchy surprise. Free parking right next door was a bonus. Will definitely be headed back soon to try their Reuben.”

We had explained that we were just passing through the area and would have to place an order next time we were there. I did not catch the name of the person behind the desk; however, he had the BEST customer service and was able to create some remarkable choices for us on the spot. The doughnuts tasted amazing and we will definitely be back:) Thank you for creating the icing on our trip!! The service you provided is rare to find these days and was very appreciated!”

“We thought we would try this place out and we were very pleased that we did. We are from CT, and we have some pretty good steak spots there but the prime rib here was absolutely amazing. A tiny bit salty on the outer crust but other than that cooked perfectly and the taste was phenomenal. Mashed potatoes were great all around and carrot cake for dessert was fabulous as well. I give the place a good 4.9. I will definitely go back!

Will definitely be a regular from now on!”

“Have been going here for along time. First time ordering pizza though. I ordered extra sauce which I did not get and only ate a few slices. I asked to get extra sauce to take home and the waitress said it would cost $2.00 more. But she wasn’t sure. We had to ask again about the sauce after we paid the bill. She said they would not give us extra sauce!! Hmmm!! Really? So for all you that like extra sauce on your pizza… they don’t do that! Also, the waitress never took any of our dirty dishes away.”

“Dammit I love waffle house. We don't have any in Michigan so when I get into Ohio I always have to stop and eat there. I've been to this location twice now and it's always spot on with the food. I usually get the same thing which is two eggs over medium hash browns with cheese and the cinnamon rice and toast with apple butter.
I'm there too early in the morning to see any of the trouble that supposedly comes with going to a waffle House late at night but I don't know if that really happens at this location but here we are”

“You know, they really try to get you through the drive through as fast as humanly possible while maintaining order accuracy. For a McDonald's in the hood and construction, I give them props.”
Fast Food • $
“This McDonald's is by far my favorite one outta the small handful I've yet tried since moving over here. Plus it helps a little that I've got to pass it every morning but what seals the deal for me is they make the BEST Carmel iced coffee's w/ extra carmel & extra cream ?and it's absolutely fantastic ? and I've only had breakfast n lunch before here and I've never been upset with anything I've got or they may have forgotten (which surprisingly enough has NOT happened to me) ?? the only complaint I'd have here is the person who cashes me out which oddly enough has actually been the same person, they're not at all a very happy person like ever, so other than that this is is why I would recommend anyone to stop there if something quick and hot n cheap n good is what ur looking for!!!!! ???????
Parking: Plenty of parking ALL around the building pretty much!!!
Kid-friendliness: We ALL should already know that kids love McDonald's and their Happy Meal's with a toy!!!! Right??? How could you go wrong???
Wheelchair accessibility: They have handicap parking spots & bathroom stalls and little ramps at the doors and I'm pretty sure that if they have all of those options for anyone who may need them accessible to them then they should also have seating for dine-in for anyone with a wheelchair as well, right?? I would seriously hope so anyways if not then someone needs to call the corporate office and talk with whomever you have to, too get this terrible mistake fixed and hopefully they would make this a higher priority and see to it that it WAS actually taken care of immediately!!!!!! I'm just saying......”

“Amazing pizzas made in their wood fired brick oven pizzas made fresh to order. We ordered five pizzas and they were brought to our table within 10-15 minutes.
Pizzas are thin crust, which we enjoy and large for one to individually enjoy. Toppings are plentiful and brought to you straight from the oven to your table.
Cozy atmosphere, Christmas lights, and multiple little country flags on the walls; while waiting for our food we trivia'ed ourselves on how many we knew.
It's a great local place for a dine in for a pizza, and we continue to come back.”

“It was so warm and friendly when we came in, the servers were very friendly and helpful when we said it was our first time there. Sitting at the back bar, you get a great view of the cooks making your ramen. The food was amazing, I got Shoyu ramen and my partner got the Bacon Ramen and both were delicious. They portions are large and I ate my fill and had left overs to take home for later. Will be adding them to the rotation of restaurants when we go to Toledo for dinner.”

Our waitresses were efficient and friendly the whole time. All the food is amazing. I've never had a bad meal here. This has become one of my favorite places to eat downtown. Go visit them, you won't be sorry! Fantastic food!”

“I would love to meet the masterminds behind Chick-fil-A. The training they get is better than 95% of businesses today. I mean come on, seriously? Their food may be considered fast food but the service is that of a 5 star restaurant… and even then, they just might be better which makes their food worth the little extra money compared to other fast food chains. I could say this about every single Chick-fil-A too but this was the most recent experience. From inside to the drive thru they got you covered!”
Diner • $
“Had the honor of dining with the owner and his family this evening at another establishment. Fun, entertaining, informative, and welcoming. My family and I have never dined here but after tonight we will be. Anyone with the hospitality and etiquette outside of his own business says a lot about character. My family and I thank you for your company this evening and welcome future meetings and interactions. Thanks again!”

I wanted to still provide employees with a delicious locally owned option so I placed large to go orders at M&B Perrysburg for pretty much first thing in the morning. The staff at M&B accommodated us with smiles on their faces and our employees were so thankful. Thank you for saving the day, Maddie & Bella!”

Bar • $
“A great place!! I went there 30 years ago. It was wild. I used to go to Henry J's, and friend suggested going to Frankies. It was insane. There was always something going on wherever you were at at the place, even out back in the parking lot & they had an area outside where you could drink & relax. My Sister & friends wanted me to go see the Smashing Pumpkins... I said no...It's probably just some unknown band that was never going to make it. Boy, I was wrong. 🎃”

“Honestly loved the food, the atmosphere, and our waiter was great! Parking lot right across street was only $5. They have a fun and unique drink menu as well. Made for a perfect date night!
Parking: Downtown you can park free in the street after 6 I believe and the weekends, but there are no spots directly by restaurant. There is a paid lot right beside restaurant and one large lot across the street.
Wheelchair accessibility: They have a floor that is wheelchair accessible.”

“My husband and I had dinner here before a concert at the Toledo zoo. I had looked at the menu online but I didn't realize it was Barcelona night, so I was a little disappointed because I was looking forward to the regular menu online. (My mistake)
We decided to stay and give a try & I must say the tapas was some of the best creations I ever had! We thoroughly enjoyed the Spanish wine and all the different small plates we ordered! So many wonderful flavors!! Hope there's a good show at the Zoo next year so we can eat at your fine establishment again!!
Thank you!”

“I honestly cant say enough good things. I Informed the waitress that I am gluten intolerant, cant have egg, and cant have my food cooked with beef. I ate my hibachi chicken(which was PHENOMENAL), and I did not get sick. It is so rare to find a restaurant in Toledo that will really acknowledge these issues and take preventive measures. Also, my waitress was attentive and very pleasant. The quality/price ratio is there as well.
THANK YOU!

“My fiancé and I ate here tonight. The food was good however we ordered the cheese fries and they came out with just cheese on them when the menu described bacon on it. I asked our waiter Seth and he said it would be 50 cents for a cup of bacon bits when we have gotten it before. My fiance got the New York strip and like any other time our server has him cut into it he did not. He didn’t have the best attitude and we ate our dinner with empty dishes on the table so there wasn’t much room. Dessert wasn’t mentioned after we were done. We’ve been to this location a few times and never had an issue but tonight was a little disappointing. I would say the food was great but the service could have been better”
Thai • $$
“Best Thai I have ever had, having been a Thai food lover all around the US! It is SO flavorful, the tofu has an amazing crispy and soft texture that soaks up all the flavor perfectly. I love it!!!”

“Stopped in for the first time with my wife to eat dinned. Originally ordered the sausage sandwich but the were out. I ultimately ordered the kielbasa hash. It was very tasty and I thought priced well. The wife ordered a burrito and 2 tacos. I had a bite of both and they too were pretty good and priced well. The atmosphere is that of a neighborhood bar. Both patrons and employees were nice and pleasant. We plan to return.”

“It has been a while since I have had lunch at Grumpy’s. Very happy to see a new owner. She is focused and committed to bring Grumpy’s back to what is was in the 90's. We shared the Ruben sandwich, excellent flavor, toasted perfectly. Only wish they had better chips. I started with the chicken noodle soup. Definitely homemade, delicious with plenty of chicken and vegetables. Could have been a little hotter. As time goes by, the ownership will continue to add to their menu. Overall, very good with great service and atmosphere!”
Pizza • $$
“You can’t beat a small pizza with 2 toppings for 10 bucks. On top of that, it’s (in my opinion) one of the best, if not THE best, pizzas in Toledo. Especially if you like the sauce that’s a little more on the sweet side and you get the spicy sausage to offset it. Cheese to the edge with a perfect crunch and not too much dough so you get a chance to enjoy it without feeling like you swallowed a brick the rest of the day. I’ll continue to go here for as long as I’m in the area”

“Will be returning. Expensive menu, but it was well worth it. Kind staff. Kind greeter and waiter. Food was ok. Ordered the Chicken Alfredo or something of that nature and a Flirtini. Chicken was dry, but the sauce helped. Waitress made my drink well. I recommend it, but maybe at a later time in the evening because the food tasted like it was a rushed order. Other than that, good experience.”

“Our waitress, Shawna, was absolutely lovely. We were out for date night. The table across from us was absolutely atrociously behaved but Shawna kept her cool and served them kindly and professionally, while also managing all her other tables with grace. Our food was wonderful and our Old Fashioneds and wine were perfect. We had a great time thanks to Shawna. Thanks for dinner!”

“Highly recommend reserving a table at Brim House for brunch! Warm and welcoming service from all the staff -- from the hostess to the server to the woman who brought out the meal. Everything we ordered was delicious -- tasty brioche French toast, excellent chicken and waffles, even the bacon was perfect. The restaurant has stylish booths and large windows for pleasant views of the city. Best brunch we've had in a long time -- thank you!”

Our server was very attentive and didn't rush us, even though it was after traditional dinner hour on a Sunday. The food was delicious, quickly prepared, and piping hot. Thank you for a lovely dining experience!”

Italian • $$
“As a new Toledoan, I had the chance to check out one of the city’s oldest restaurants. It’s like walking into a different time period - a restaurant like no other in town. There’s a train car that goes through the center of the restaurant, old school Tiffany’s style lamps and almost like a saloon meets checkered tablecloth vibe. The team has been working there for years - some even 20+! Service is small-town friendly, there are plenty of rooms for big parties and 4 tops alike and the prices are great. There’s currently a BOGO deal for entire pasta entrees. The kitchen is a mostly scratch kitchen with the exception of then breads and pastas which are made in large pasta pots in the kitchen. The garlic butter is amazing and the lasagna and chicken parm were my two fav dishes. The Lambrusco is a yummy wine choice, and they offer Chianti and Pinot noir along with some others. This isn’t the fanciest meal you’ll have in town, but the sauce is good, the chicken is cooked perfectly on the Alfredo and the parm, and the prices are right. Come here for fun events like murder mystery parties and comedy shows on weekends! Also a perfect venue for group parties or showers.”

“Have been going here for along time. First time ordering pizza though. I ordered extra sauce which I did not get and only ate a few slices. I asked to get extra sauce to take home and the waitress said it would cost $2.00 more. But she wasn’t sure. We had to ask again about the sauce after we paid the bill. She said they would not give us extra sauce!! Hmmm!! Really? So for all you that like extra sauce on your pizza… they don’t do that! Also, the waitress never took any of our dirty dishes away.”

“We had stopped in towards the end of the day to try these tasty doughnuts; however, their options were very limited. We had explained that we were just passing through the area and would have to place an order next time we were there. I did not catch the name of the person behind the desk; however, he had the BEST customer service and was able to create some remarkable choices for us on the spot. The doughnuts tasted amazing and we will definitely be back:) Thank you for creating the icing on our trip!! The service you provided is rare to find these days and was very appreciated!”

“Went here for dinner on the weekend. The place was quite busy, but they managed the seating well. The food selection was impressive, seafood, grilled meats, sushi, and hot dishes. The seafood was fresh, especially the shirmp and oysters. Staff were friendly and quick, though refilling the hotpot items was a bit slow during peak time. The restaurant was clean and spacious, great for groups or family gatherings. Overall a solid buffet experience, just needs a bit more consistency when it gets crowded.”

“Overall good experience at this Olive Garden. Hadn't been to one in a long time but the revamped menu made sense with solid Italian entree choices. Our waitress Jax was super great and very friendly. I had spaghetti and meat sauce which was good, sauce needed more meat I thought. I got sauteed shrimp on it as well and those were tasty. My wife got the Five Cheese Ziti al forno and that looked and tasted good. We both got the sausage potato soup which was a pleasant surprise. Breadsticks were ok, marinara we got with them was nothing special. My wife got an Italian margarita and that was nicely made. If you have a hankering for Italian and want good value, Olive Garden is your place!”

“13yrs ago: Came here and starved. Took them 3hrs to give us a table and food.
👨🍳
July 2025 update: Updated Review
I wrote a bad review here 13 years ago because we waited 3 hours for our food back then. But I’ve been back twice now with my husband, and both times were great experiences. We got our food quickly, and everything was delicious. I had the fajitas this time, and they were really good.
Our kids ordered macaroni and cheese (which I don’t recommend doing at any restaurant – it always comes out like the boxed kind or too hard 😅), but the staff was really nice about it and let our son pick something else.
The waiter and staff were super friendly and on point, just like the last time we came last month. Definitely a big improvement from years ago. We’ll keep coming back!”

“Super great bar staff on Tuesday nights. He always remembers our order and always gets it right. Pizza's and salads are wonderful and would highly recommend both. On Tuesday night, 8/19 I was a little disappointed as they changed from paper plates and plastic silverware to China Plates and Real Silverware. I had a real knife that was serrated for a right-handed person and I am left-handed, lol. Please go back to paper and plastic as it feels more like home. Thanks”

“Stopped in as a first time customer when I found out they have meal deals daily. I opted for the 8pc boneless and flavored fries for $10. I chose the mango habanero and buffalo lemon pepper for my wings and lemon pepper dusted fries. Everything had the PERFECT amount of flavor to it and the flavors were fresh and distinct. I was greeted when I walked in and thanked as I left, the entire staff was amazing!”
