Wow! Yumminess! I have been to 111 Bistro twice now. Excellent service and many choices for your palette. I'm impressed with the culinary combinations, draught beers and wine list. Make it a point to check 111 Bistro out. New happy hour Tuesday-Saturday, some great deals!! read more

While we have dined at One Eleven Bistro several times this was the last. The food is great but the service continues to deteriorate. For example my husband ordered a split of Perrier and was brought a Pellegrino. Not even close. When we asked our waitress what the specials were she didn't know if there were any. Unfortunately our previous visit the service was even worse.This lack of "service" is reason enough to look elsewhere. read more

Don't let the generic strip mall location stop you from enjoying a stellar dining and cocktail experience. We started by ordering some very traditional and basic cocktails and then received the best versions of those cocktails we have ever tasted. Kudos to, clearly, a very gifted bartender. Our appetizers, Ahi Tuna and Calamari, were prompt, well prepared and portioned perfectly. The entrees we chose for our meal were not quite as adventurous as the the menus because we had eaten a late lunch and indulged on the appetizers. However, the Black Garlic Pasta and Romen Bowl we ordered we're both very good. My personal taste for a bit more seasoning in the Roman Bowl is not sufficient enough to detract from the dish and experience. For one year now I have sworn off fast-food, regional and national chains in favor of smaller privately owned food-centric establishments. This one, 111 Bistro, I rate as a "Speedy Return". read more

After we were seated, we were graciously welcomed by McKenzie, the waitress who served us around Valentine's Day. Her memory of us as a couple, our wine preference...just made us feel like we were in a very friendly family restaurant and part of the family. The restaurant has a great feel to it. We keep going back (actually our third time in as many months!). They have a new Summer Menu. My sirloin was wonderful. My husband's scallops, delicious. Check 111 Bistro out. I read more

Ok, we went back for NYE. Complete fail. My steak was overdone - TWICE - dry, hard-to-cut overdone. My wife's $27 osso buco had like three bites combined! I wouldn't mind the price if there was actually meat. There's more meat on a McDonald's hamburger than was in that dish. We all ate the shrimp appetizer and we all had major stomach problems when we got home. The main courses came out while we were still eating our salad. And the waitress seemed she was way overworked and kept ignoring our table. Water ran out and never got refilled. Heck, On Tap has better tasting food and service. Felt completely robbed, like all they wanted to do was maximize their profits at the expense of patrons. Will definitely not be going back here! read more

Outstanding food and drinks at very reasonable prices. Have had multiple menu items and cannot choose a favorite. Great comfort food! Service is outstanding and music is great too! read more

Great chicken Paprikash with dumplings sautéed red cabbage and topped with a piece of bacon. Highly recommend.

first day out for the newest Medinut creation and my wife needed to be there to get it !!!!. got one took it home to have with a nice homemade latte and she said it was great !!!!! read more

111 Bistro - The Medinut for February. .. yummmm - New American Near Me - Medina, Ohio

See all

Our party of 4 had one who was gluten-intolerant. The menu offered several entrees for her. Each of us had a different entree: burger, grilled salmon, beef short ribs, & scampi/clams over pasta (homemade pasta :-), always a treat!!). Each person gave high marks for their food. Friendly servers and all our food was served hot. Decent beer menu as well as cocktails. Book reservations for Saturdays. read more

Amazing atmosphere, friendly staff, great service and food. I always look forward to dining here!

Very slow service. Chef appears to be afraid of salt. And someone in the kitchen doesn't like to cook veggies to completion or, if undercooking for crispness, perhaps potatoes aren't the right avenue to experiment with. Bottom line is I like to see places experimenting, but if you're going to charge prices like you're ready to compete with Sawyer, you better deliver a plate that competes with Sawyer. What my wife and I experienced, both in terms of quality of food and service, wasn't keeping on par with Thyme2, much less the Greenhouse or Lola. Back to the drawing board. read more

Always good. They have several changing draft beer selections. The 111 Burger & 111 fries are always a good pick. The Bahn mi is also fantastic read more

111 Bistro - 111 Burger with fried egg and 111 Fries! Fantastic ask for a side of their homemade ranch for dipping! - New American Near Me - Medina, Ohio

Got sat in the backroom and got our drinks about 20 minutes after ordering them. Had to ask a different waitress for refills each time. Skip the appetizer and salad..not worth it. The main meals were delicious though (Lobster Mac and short ribs). Would give it a second chance, maybe if I got seated in the main area I would receive better service...I would also know how to order better the second time around. read more

Three of us each chose something different. All liked their choice. Scallops had unusual but tasty lemon sauce on pasta, 72 hrs short ribs very good, risotto excellent. Server was helpful and very courteous. Although I said "anniversary dinner" when making the reservation, there was no mention of it. Disappointing!!! read more

I had dinner there for the first time last night it was ok menu could have had more Choice for vegetarians, very salty foot. I would go again some time, so watch this space for the next comment. read more

Delicious!!! Have been wanting to try this place for over a year now and we finally made it and it did not disappoint! I had the paprikash and hubby had the meatloaf, we were scraping our plates. The house cab/Merlot wine was really good and of course I couldn't pass up the creme brûlée - yum!!!! Can't wait to go back!! read more

Everything is excellent here. The chef is very inventive with his pairings and we really enjoy eating here. Plates are always well-sized and the hardest part is limiting your choices down to only a few each time - ha! We could eat the duck wings for days. I'd like to see the brunch menu offered occasionally on other days than Sunday. Hands down the best food we have had in Medina. read more

When friends were looking for a new double date spot we went to the place we've been hearing a lot of chat about 111 Bistro! The environment was perfect for friends catching up. We each ordered something quite different from each other and we're all very pleased! I had the pork chop with spaetzle and red cabbage. The bourbon sauce was the best!!!!! I had to keep myself from locking the bone clean, it was so good! I can't wait to come back again! It's a nice date night celebration destination, the kind you don't mind paying a babysitter for, so you can enjoy the space and the food with no inhibitions! read more

Fantastic food, great atmosphere, best tasting drinks and best bar tenders in the whole world! Don't leave there without trying an Old Fashioned or a Bloody Mary.... delish! This is by far the best restaurant in Medina! read more

I picked a hair out of my mouth while eating the duck entree this evening. Showed the server and they supposedly prepared a new dish. In the new dish the duck was very overdone and the side dish was very small. The server dropped the bill and didn't return very promptly. My husband went to the bar to pay and eventually the server went to bar and threw out change at him. Very very disappointing. read more

Pleasant surprise in Medina. Menu offers a bit of everything. Service can range from excellent to "needs more experience". Suggest the duck wings, the salmon, and bone in pork chop (best ever). Wine selection is also outstanding. read more

First time at 111 Bistro, recently moved to the area. Service was great, food was good. I ordered the scallops small plate- disappointment was they are NOT sea scallops i am used to. 4-5 small scallops, no sweetness as expected. You dont get salads with your dinner, and brought rolls after our salads were done? Will give them another try as my party enjoyed the food they ordered, but pricey without including a salad. read more

Absolutely fabulous!!!! Great atmosphere!! Gem on the east side of medina!!! Meatloaf was amazing! Will definitely be back!! Cheers to 111!!! read more

Excellent food. We ordered the Butternut squash and apple soup, beet salad, burgers with salad, chicken parm, venison and fries. We loved everything. The win selection was very nice. Ask to sit away from the door because the front of the restaurant is very drafty. Only negative is that they serve coffee mate with coffee vs. real cream. Surprising given that the menu is sourced from local farms, etc. read more

Yum! I went in having never heard of the place and definitely became a fan. We took friends to brunch and the ricotta lemon pancakes were AMAZING! Everyone else seemed to enjoy what they had as well. I returned for dinner and we ordered a bunch of different appetizers to share and I was impressed with all of them. I love a unique food selection like this without feeling like they went overboard with weirdness. I will definitely return. read more

My husband and I decided to try 111 again. We weren't very impressed the first time! We love the atmosphere, but the service, food, and prices are nothing to write home about. We were just as unhappy this time as we were the first! We will not be returning and I will not encourage my friends or family to try it either! read more

[UPDATED AFTER RETURN VISIT]. Original post: After being seated in the bar area, we waited nearly 10 minutes for the hostess to bring us water. The restaurant was nearly empty, and there seemed to be one server. We didn't expect any issues ordering. After calling the hostess over to see if we could be served, she said she would call the waiter over. Nearly 10 more minutes go by, no service. The bartender, only 5ft from us, ignored us and didn't even offer to bring us drinks. Food runners were standing around texting on their phones. After over 15 minutes of waiting, we walked out. Extremely poor service, inattentive staff. [UPDATE]: after the owners/ managers invited us back, we had a chance to try this place again. Our experience was improved from our first trip and we didn't have issues being served. Assuming they have worked on quality and taken feedback seriously, I would hope improvements are permanent. read more

We went there for the first time, upon a recommendation from some friends. Was nice to be able to make a reservation via their website. Their Happy Hour held a decent selection of wines/plates, no cocktails. We showed up around 7pm. It took at least 10 minutes for our server (Devin) to show up. Even to the point that the hostess came over and mentioned the wait and poured us some water. We looked over the menu, both food and drinks. Inquired about some options to which Devin didn't seem too knowledgable about, but moreso just agreeable to what we were trying to ask. From the prices they charge, a server should know how the food is prepared and how to sell it. Better yet, answer the simple question of preparation- at least in our opinion. A burger was $11, came with thin sliced house chips. Any other options (fries, salad) were a $3 up charge. But when asked about veggies- no answer. They had some nice flavor profiles on both sandwiches and entrees. From Soba Shrimp Noodles to an Ahi tuna sandwich. Guess we were expecting better service and quality. As local foodies, we often eat out every weekend and were extremely excited to try out 111 Bistro. Couldn't say we would go back. Not only for the food, but also the unprofessionalism we experienced. When we were leaving, they gave us a survey to fill out about our visit. Of course, trying to give constructive criticism, we filled it out. Upon which our waitress passed it around the entire staff, including kitchen, who all gave looks of disdain in plain view to us in the dining area. Would have been nice for her, or even the owners, whom were both there to come up and have some dialog about. More or less felt like some people trying to put a fine dining experience together but fail to focus on the major components: a good staff and professional policies on customer service. read more

I would dispute the two dollar sign rating as the entrees were $21 plus. Food was good service OK. Wasn't very busy on a Saturday night. Desert was very good tho as I had the pumpkin creme brûlée and my wife had the pumpkin bread pudding. I never like when the food isn't brought out by the server. I thought it was odd we had to ask for bread with an entree. Sourdough rolls were good but no butter !! Hmm. Wouldn't be my first choice next time i go out to dinner. read more

We are so fortunate that Chef Anthony opened this place close to where we live. Last nights meal was by far the best thing I have eaten anywhere in a long time! Going out on Friday we didn't expect the "Valentine's Day menu" but it did not disappoint. My long bone veal chop was amazing and the grape tomato reduction was a nice accompaniment. I stuck to my regular 111 salad and we shared the white chocolate cheesecake for dessert. The entire meal was on point! A big thank you to Anthony behind the bar as well. You always make us feel welcome! read more

I was hoping I would love this place! We always drive by and finally got to try it and it was just okay. We had to send our calimari back cause it wasn't cooked all the way. We also got 3 of the 4 specials and they were nothing great. Everything was very bland and my fish had a ton of bones that it was hard to eat. Their happy hour drink specials were great though. read more

We have been going here since they first opened and have never been disappointed. Chef Anthony and staff have always made our evening out perfect. Definitely a place to frequent because the menu is always changing read more

So impressive! We had the potato skins, burger and fries. Absolutely delicious. Can't wait to go back. I've told all my friends to check it out! Excellent beer list as well. read more

This is our go to place for out-of-town guests, girls night out and date night. The atmosphere is upscale without being uncomfortable. There is a wide selection of wine and beer and they are always changing up what's on tap. The menu is fun and inventive and also changes seasonally. The food is always well prepared and delicious. The staff is great and makes a great effort to make sure you enjoy your dining experience. I highly recommend! read more

Clean, simple, yet elegent ambiance. Brunch menu was nicely varied and creative. Definitely will be back for dinner.

I thought this place was suppose to be really good I walk in and no one says hi so I walk to a booth on my own and there we're still plates on he table. The food that was on the plate did not not look good so I tried a piece of bread and it was stale like my mother boyfriend. Then I clapped loudly twice for some service but accidentally turn off the lights and it was pitch black. Sorry but this place is irrelevant now that I wrote this review #yucky read more

"You're welcome, Medina." -111 Bistro Just came home from a fantastic meal! The menu was so enticing, I had a hard time deciding so I sampled a little bit of everyone else's choices at my table. From salads to pastas to burgers, it was all perfectly prepared and very delicious! Kids might be intimidated by the sophisticated menu, but we ordered for ours, and he ate every bite! The service was also impressive for such a new restaurant. Our waitress was everything you'd want in a waitress; knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient! The atmosphere is open, yet cozy, and I loved being able to have a peak into the action (aka kitchen). To top it all off, the drinks menu is amazing. I especially enjoyed the back of the dessert menu where single malt scotches and bourbons are featured... so classy. I will definitely be returning to try more of the menu! As for recommendations, all I can say is, GET THE FRIES! Rosemary + thyme + parmesan + and truffle oil = seriously good. Two very enthusiastic thumbs up! read more

We went on the night before Valentine's Day and they had a special menu. The lobster bisque (special menu item) was just ok - the bisque was good the lobster was tough and fishy. The duck wings (regular menu) were superb as was the entrees we ordered (both orders were special menu). I would recommend to a friend but warn that it is a little pricey. read more

The food and atmosphere is wonderful, and the craft beer selection is always amazing! These guys get all the rare stuff on hand. Make sure you try the cheesecake... It's to die for! read more

This was our first visit. Drinks were well done. Nice selection of draft beers. The menu had a wide variety of options. I had the lamb bolognese which was tasty and my wife's salmon was nicely done as well. The bar crowd was vibrant and filled with the 40-50 something types which works for me. We'll go back for sure. read more
