I've reviewed Ottawa Tavern before but several of my reviews disappeared. I like it. It's a good…read moreplace to see a show because of of its size. They have a good atmosphere. I wish they had more canned beverage options but they do have drink specials and a good beer list. Just not what I drink in particular. I don't care for the current food menu as it's mostly fried food. Before they had the best fresh cut thick fries but are currently different. Staff is generally friendlyish.

We saw this place on our way to a bar and wanted to check it out…read more We stepped in and realized it was a music venue too! We came in early enough to get in without cover, but the space is really nice and has pinball machines. I'll have to come back when they have a band on because I bet this place gets packed. Really cool spot!

My daughter's wedding was this past weekend. It was fantastic! The Summit Event Center was the…read morefirst place we toured a year ago. Right from the first meeting with Becky, we knew this was the right fit for the wedding reception. Our goal was to have all events for the weekend in Downtown Toledo and The Summit Event Center was perfect! The Hotel was a block away and all other events were close by within walking distance which made it easier for the guests. Becky is so informative and professional, always returning calls or emails within a day. Becky and her staff took so much stress out of the wedding reception planning. The free monthly tasting were so helpful. This gave us a chance to bring various people to the tastings to help choose the right food and see the venue. It also gave us an opportunity to get to know the staff. They exceeded our expectations! We wanted to customize our food and make it a fall theme. Chef Keith was so helpful and willing to figure out the right combinations of foods. The late night snack of chicken chunks and mac and cheese was a huge hit! Hannah, the Bar Manager, made a fall specialty drink with warm apple cider that was also a favorite with the guests. All of the waitstaff were attentive and polite making sure everything was as we had requested. The house DJ was an awesome choice! Having the use of the inventory of event decorations was a big money saver. We loved going thru the items to get ideas. The package pricing made it so much easier to plan the budget for the reception. Becky was so helpful in making changes to the package that fit our needs. Our families and friends had an excellent time from the delicious food and drinks to the fun dance music to the wonderful decorations, we highly recommend having an event at The Summit Event Center! Thanks to Becky, Hannah, Chef Keith and the rest of the staff! We made some awesome memories!

We were here for a wedding reception and the food was ridiculously bad…read more The salads came out and was minuscule - just a tiny bit of iceberg from a bag and a couple slices of veggies. About 45 minutes later we were finally called up to the buffet just to find out that pretty much all the food was gone anyway. And the food that was left was cold and not at all flavorful. Find someplace else for your party. The only good thing was the bar... they pour generously.

BlkBok, a classical/fusion electronic artist. Being a Detroit native, performing at the sort of like a homecoming. What I love about the arc is that it is really run by volunteers and as a nonprofit. The other aspect, which is great is that it's an intimate space, you are not far from the performers at any seat. I highly recommend this for entertainment in Ann Arbor..

Yes, it is a Bar and Grill but they also have a sizable outdoor patio area, a large area with pool…read moretables, darts and arcade games. There is also an entire section dedicated to live performances. I visited for the Pop Evil concert and was floored by all of the talent they had lined up before the main event. The drinks are good and the service we received from Kelly (loved her Mohawk) was spot on. They seem to maintain a great line up of live music from the area as well as bands from out state and country. The performance venue is standing room only with a few exceptions near the bar. It feels intimate but it is big enough that you do not feel crowded. The reason I am giving them 4 and not 5 stars is for making us wait in 0 degree weather with a hella cold wind cutting at us as they had to process everyone in. It was very inconsiderate to keep people standing in the elements while one or two guys checked Id's and tickets. Maybe this seems like no big deal but seriously it was f*&^$ing cold out people! My buck 25 ass is not use to it and I dare say even the locals had a difficult time handling the wait and check in process. The place also looked a tad tired and dare I say dingy. I'm not sure I would feel comfortable eating here. That being said I did NOT see their kitchen so this can be an over reach on my part but generally speaking if things are not well maintained up front they are not well maintained in the back. The bartenders and concert line up is the reason I believe most people come here and is why I will be back next time I am in the area. Until then, Rock on with your bad self!

The Broken Glass Goth night has always been amazing, so Paul and his DJ friends that run Broken…read moreGlass are exempt from these comments. However, if with the clique style douche metal they play there, the biggest threat is the head of security [Hispanic, late 40's, heavy set, short black hair] that is always impersonating a cop. My friend was allowed to leave with two highly intoxicated people while the supposed impersonator cop that was head of security told me to shove off or he'd have me arrested. Right after I asked to see this guy's bad, asked for his name and badge number he only said 242 [Gee, give the name of a band right don't you]. The head of security left in a late model orange colored pickup truck. moments later after he left, actual police arrived claiming that I had a gun in the night club. The entire building was closed at the time when the actual police arrived. The one of the DJ's happened to be standing outside next to when the police arrived and vouched for me. What a total joke of an encounter. Do not go here. You couldn't pay me money to even perform at this place as DJ or music project. Oh, and after talking with both Toledo police and the police in my own neighborhood, it turned out the head of security mentioned in this review is not a cop. This head of security should be careful of the person who is sober and is not afraid of some wanna-be.

It was our anniversary, and they were happy to have us come in. We had a great table over looking the river and the service was perfect. Very friendly and attentive without being intrusive or annoying. Very nice menu and our food was amazing. The steaks were cooked to perfection. The sides, Twice baked potato, grilled asparagus and three cheese macaroni were fantastic. The piano player was a very nice touch. The open airy space made for a very comfortable and inviting area. Noise levels were good. Our server Misael was a joy. Great passion for his profession and it shows.

I tried one of their house cocktails and was wowed by the flavor. When eating food, they always serve the Parmesan stuffed pop overs with butter and it just melts in your mouth.

However, the last time I went we were cold shouldered by the bartenders. It was a week day night about 7 people on one side of the bar other than ourselves and 2 bartenders... I am a bartender myself so I know how it feels to be behind the bar. My dad had come down to hangout with me and my boyfriend and we sat there for 23 minutes with no service. When my dad finally called out to the male bartender who was serving somebody who had walked in quite a while after us the bartender rolled his eyes and still didn't come to check on us in the 5 minutes we waited before just leaving. Not a great experience and also not sure why we were treated that way as we didn't cause any issues that night prior to being shunned. But now after reading some other reviews I realize we are not the only people that have experienced service like this...
