“We stopped in here on a whim. We've heard good things but never bothered to try it... until tonight. First off, let's talk about service. Absolutely phenomenal and I can not stress that enough. Mike and his team absolutely killed it! Our waters were constantly full, our cocktails were delicious and the one on one conversation was excellent and this was on a fairly busy night. Every seat at the bar was full and atleast 3/4 of the dining room was full.DRINKS: All of our cocktails were excellent and their whiskey/bourbon selection is damn near second to none.APPS: Chicken tenders, pretzel, hot peppers, and confit wings were all exceptional.DINNERS: Chicken & Street corn salad, Blueberry chicken sandwich, Portobello melt, and Chicken stir fry were all exquisite.DESSERT: Oreo cheesecake was excellent.We will absolutely be back!“

“The Landmark restaurant in Youngstown, Ohio is a staple of the Westside. It’s simply one of the best places to get a great breakfast. The portion size for the price is very good. I usually go as soon as they open, not too crowded but it gets busy. You walk in and seat yourself, I usually like to grab a table. The seating options here are table, booths or the counter. I really enjoy the atmosphere here, early morning crowd of people getting ready for work or retired guys just enjoying their coffee. My waitress came over to me quickly, she was very pleasant. She then took my drink & breakfast order. She returned with my bottom-less coffee & water, there was a cup full of creamers on the table that I used to give my coffee the correct consistency. My meal was out a short time later, perfectly prepared, hot & correct. The best part of this place is after you finish your breakfast, you can stroll over to the bakery counter and get some amazing donuts. They make an Apple Fritter & Bear Claw the size of your head!!! They are big and amazing tasty, you simply must try them. They have a whole case of delicious donuts that I know you will enjoy. If you love a proper breakfast & delicious donuts, this is the place for you.“

DeYor Performing Arts Center American • $$$

“Recently attended a concert (Jim Brickman) on this smaller auditorium side. We've attended sold out concerts from this same artist on the larger orchestra side of Powers Auditorium. Definitely a different experience as it was a more intimate concert this time, especially due to the close proximity of basically all the seats on this smaller auditorium side. He said he had used this side for rehearsing during concerts he performed on the Powers Auditorium side, saying he loved performing on the larger, "orchestra " side, but wanted to return to have a concert one day on this stage that he also enjoyed for the close experience he could share with his audience.“

“A little late on writing reviews so figured I'd start getting caught back up. This bar and grille is a local semi-dive bar with cold beer and terrific food. On this visit, my friend and I sat at the bar as it was busy due to a small work party going on as well. We enjoyed a cold beer while we perused the menu. They are known for their burgers but I was stuck on wanting to order the sausage sangwich and boy I was not disappointed. The sausage patty was absolutely delicious served topped with provolone, peppers and onions on a grilled bun and a side of fries to accompany (Sadly, I forgot to take pics). In asking one of the owner's who was behind the bar, he told me that the sausage is made locally right up the street at DePizzo's sausage. I know this place to have fantastic homemade sausage but a fire at their small facility shut them down a few years ago but they still make it in limited quantities and Shaker's is one of the beneficiaries of this deliciousness. The owner ended up chatting with us for approx. 45-minutes where he bought us a few rounds of beers on top of a few shots since Christmas was right around the corner. Great little spot and I need to get back to try their burgers. I'll update once I've done so.“

Next time I'll eat at the bar. Much less confusing and better service.Also, put better descriptions on your online menu. I don't know what any of your sandwiches are if they've got some wacky name.“

Mondays is hit or miss, depends on if anyone answers the door. I’m kidding! And seriously. Two good bar pool tables. That and the ginger ale (I don’t even drink!) and the folks who patronize the place are why I like it here.“
