    Greek omelette, side of tzatziki, home fries and blueberry pancakes with real butter.
    Laura R.

    Stopped in for a late breakfast while passing through this area. Everything on the menu is available all day. Parking lot is busy - go slow and watch for pedestrians. Main entrance is accessible and bathrooms are gender-specific. Staff were friendly and seated us right away. Jackie answered all of my questions and took good care of us. Hubby had eggs, sausage, home fries and pancakes. He ate all of it! I had the Greek omelette with home fries and blueberry pancakes - real blueberries and real butter (no real maple syrup). Jackie suggested tzatziki with my omelette and it was delicious. I don't think I can ever have an omelette without it again! The blueberries were a bit chewy but the pancakes were great. I would order plain pancakes next time. We had time so decided to stroll through the adjacent store. There was even more restaurant seating in the back and the front half had some nice jewelry, ornaments, scarves etc. I bought a necklace for a friend and took it back to the restaurant to ring up. They provided tissue paper and a nice box. We would definitely stop back again when in the area.

    Hungry? Head here for major quantities of good home cooked food. Dropped in with a party of 4 on a Sunday around noon and was promptly seated and was impressed with extensive range of the menu. Two of us had the Irish skillet but we could have shared one. Giant plate of hash browns, topped with homemade corned beef hash, accompanied by two pancakes and three eggs. This was designed for leftovers or the offensive line of the Browns! Dad's perch dinner featured freshly fried fish and chips and was also a heaping serving. Come hungry and go home satisfied. Prices were more than reasonable!

    Sorry to leave a review like this, very disappointing experience. My husband and I visited the Bedford location on this visit to Ohio. We did visit a different location a few years ago and that was good. Not sure if both locations would have the same experience now. My husband and I had a weird vibe from the moment we walked in. The young lady who seated us was expressionless, no welcome, no smile. I ordered coffee and when I asked the same young lady if she could bring some creamer, she went and grabbed a handful, and without saying a word she just threw it on the table. Since there were no creamers on the table when I ordered coffee our server should have noticed and offered it. Our server was nice, however, there was a little confusion with our order. Not sure what happened, she appeared to be an experienced server because she took our order without writing it down. She asked if we wanted home fries with our meal and we said yes. My husband's order was incorrect, another nice young lady fixed his order, however, we both noticed we got hash browns and not home fries. We inquired with our server about the home fries, she explained that she calls them home fries, however, the truck delivered hash browns and they serve what gets delivered. That's understandable, however, it would have been nice if she explained that from the beginning. The food and service was very subpar, toast was cold and the hash browns had an unpleasant aftertaste. Unfortunately, the food just didn't taste great. Maybe they're substituting ingredients, not sure.

    Excellent service for 6 Fast and good ! Home made food at a great price. Only downfall was they only serve pork.lol

    The classic French dip.  This is one of the best sandwiches on the planet.

    The Dolphin a one of those restaurants that pop up on hidden places to eat blogs. The ambiance is definitely dive but the food is amazing. The French Dip is knock.it out of the park delicious. The soups are always homey and comforting. The salads will blow your mind. The staff is personable and sweet. It's a place you want to take Grandma to for mother's day.v

    Three of us had a nice breakfast at the Dolphin on a Saturday morning. We were seated and waited on promptly, and they have a diner type menu. I had a three egg vegetarian omelette with rye toast, and everything was good. My friends also enjoyed their breakfast and the coffee. Definitely worth a stop if you're looking for breakfast.

As we had not seen each other in many years, we were heavily engaged in reminiscing about our past. Without invitation, the waitress, whom neither of us knew, interjected herself in our conversation. When she finished telling us all about herself, she took our drink order. She returned in a few minutes with our drinks. That was the last we saw of her for over 20 minutes! When see finally reemerged on the floor from whatever she had been doing in the kitchen, we literally had to flag her down to take our food order. It took another 20-30 minutes for what were relatively simple orders to finally arrived at the our table. I had a veggie burger that was OK, however the sweet potato fries that accompanied it were overcooked, with many of the fries burned. To add insult to injury, the bill presented required a minimum tip of 20% which was clearly undeserved!

She said she wanted to be by the water, somewhere "healing", so we discovered Tinkers Creek Tavern together, and the scenery was more than we anticipated. We opted for the patio, of course. While it was hot outside, we didn't notice the heat. The shade from the trees and the creek nearby must have cooled things down. Bugs were not an issue either. The staff was super friendly. We explained we were newbies ans asked for recommendations. We learned their brisket is something they're known for, but I leaned more towards seafood. I had the shrimp and grits for my meal, after the pretzel as an appetizer. The food was so good and our experience was so great I told my mom about it, who happened to go back with my brother while I was at work one Saturday (bummer ). I've also called in take out, and returned several times with another friend and my middle son.

When I worked nearby for a couple of years, my coworkers and I made a habit of grabbing lunch on the patio. It overlooks the calm stretch of Tinkers Creek, which adds a quiet, almost tucked-away feel to the experience. One afternoon, we even watched a crane wade through the water, bathing and fishing like it owned the place. Not a bad backdrop for a lunch break. Consistently great food, reliable service, and a setting that does a little extra without trying too hard.

This spot brings a shareable Italian dining experience, meaning large portions that don't compromise on flavor. For me, the true test of an Italian restaurant is its red sauce, and Capriccio's nailed it--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Whether poured over pasta or served alongside hearty entrées, you can taste the quality in every bite. And speaking of pasta, they make theirs fresh, which adds an extra layer of authenticity and texture to every dish! Beyond the incredible food, they offer craft cocktails, which immediately caught my attention because, well, I'm a low-key cocktail snob--the more intricate, the better! Their drinks are thoughtfully prepared, adding a perfect complement to the meal. Now, let's talk about dessert--because their Biscoff cheesecake is TOP TIER. Creamy, rich, and full of that buttery Biscoff goodness, it's a must-try. The server was very attentive and knowledgeable. Tip: Make a reservation Capriccio's is tucked away enough to make it an ideal date night spot--whether with your partner or your sneaky link (no judgment here!). I'll definitely be back for more of their authentic flavors and cozy vibes!
