My husband and I both ordered the pork schnitzel. We about fell over when our entrees were brought out!!! They had the largest amount of schnitzel and spaetzles we've ever had at any German restaurant on our plates!! I'm talking a 1 1/2-2lb schnitzel for $20!! This was also served with a salad and roll. It was cooked to perfection, alas a little different than we've had, in regards to the breading. We did thoroughly enjoy all of it though! They have an extensive list of German beers, which my husband loved! It's definitely a set back, regulars kind of restaurant, which we like! When in the area, we'll definitely be back to try other menu items

We had a reservation for 6 people at 1:30 on a Saturday afternoon. We arrived and were seated…read morepromptly. Our waiter was friendly and courteous. Our waiter took drink orders. Around 2, he came by and asked if we wanted any appetizers-we ordered a few. Around 2:30, the appetizers arrived and then he took our order for the meal. The meals were served close to 4pm, probably a little after. Some meals were served hot-my Louisiana Chicken was pretty much cold. It seems like the food was probably good, but the surrounding circumstances ruined it for us. The waiter thanked us for our patience but that was it. The table next to us experienced a similar delay--they were offered free drinks and/or desserts. This may have been the slowest service that I have ever experienced. I am assuming the fact that they were crowded caused the problems, but they accepted our reservation and with that there is an expectation of quality service.

They also have fry bowls that are basically loaded fries. Their steak-eez fries bowl has steak, onions, mushrooms, green peppers, banana peppers, jalapenos, bacon, cheese, with their steak-eez sauce. The service is pretty great too. The only thing that I will say is that sometimes it takes awhile to get your food but I don't mind that too much. It is a small place which I also like. It's fun to sit in a booth with your friends to talk about the night. It's the perfect college town spot for a late night bite, or if you love a good cheesesteak.

It is easy to find, easy to park, spacious with plenty of seating and an outdoor deck overlooking the river. We were seated promptly and greeted by a very nice young lady by the name of Lorelei (quite a wonderful name). She was effective, efficient, pleasant, and made our experience that much better. At the entrance was a surprisingly well stocked wine cellar with some very good names. I was looking forward to a nice glass of wine for lunch. Unfortunately, the table selection only included a very few obscure names by the glass, so that option was out. The menu included all the standard burgers, flatbreads, and odds and ends one would expect. The food was good and we had a nice lunch. We finished with a nice cup of coffee and a pleasant smile from Lorelei. I very much enjoyed our excursion to Kent State University and "The River Merchant". I would recommend both.

It has wooden booth seats, is dimly lit and contains mostly down to earth patrons of all ages. The service was prompt and our server was pleasant.

I really enjoyed my chicken gyro mostly because I couldn't detect dill in the cucumber sauce that it came with, and I really dislike dill which is often in tzatziki sauce.

The interior is warm and inviting and has the feel of a cozy pub. There's a large amount of seating, including a bar, tables, and booths. The menu is mainly just basic pub fare, including apps, sandwiches, soups, and salads. My friend tried the chicken Gyro and I ordered a grilled cheese and fries. Nothing fancy, just a quick evening meal. Our server was friendly and attentive. The food was just OK, nothing spectacular if I was in the area and looking for a place to pop in for a drink, I may come back, but it wouldn't be on the top of my list.

Battleground is an upscale Mexican restaurant that absolutely nails authentic flavor. The food,…read moredrinks, and atmosphere all come together perfectly. The cocktails are creative, balanced, and reasonably priced -- I had the hibiscus mezcal margarita, which had an incredible depth of flavor. For my main, I ordered the Cena de Tacos, which comes with your choice of two out of five sides. I went with a creamy corn bowl and a side of Mexican rice -- both rich, flavorful, and comforting. My wife ordered the shrimp bowl with rice, which was just as delicious. What really stands out here is the authenticity -- every bite tastes like it was crafted with care and respect for traditional Mexican cooking. The interior is classy and modern, yet relaxed enough to feel comfortable. I also love the thoughtful touch of their craft beers being named after social justice initiatives. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. Despite the restaurant being nearly full -- she was quick to serve. If you're looking for genuine Mexican flavors served in an elegant but welcoming setting, Battleground is a must-visit.

I'll premise this by saying I had very high hopes for this experience because we recently relocated…read morefrom Texas, and after reading the reviews, I thought we may have a restaurant that contended with the authentic Mexican and TexMex we got down there. But alas, I don't think we will return to The Battleground. The service was awkward. The hosts and our waiter were, for a lack of better words, socially awkward young men dressed like they just left school and may have tossed their backpacks behind the hostess stand. It was a weird contrast for the slightly upscale prices and interior they present. The waiter seemed nervous, which, in itself isn't a bad thing, but they awkwardly lingered when it wasn't necessary and was hard to get their attention when we needed our check and to pay the bill. The food and drinks were a mixed review. The Battleground margaritas were delicious. The chips and salsa were not great, we mostly got a basket of tortilla shards. My partner got three tacos--carne azada, al pastor, and fish. His big takeaway was, "they're not very hot (temperature) and they're kind of bland." Similarly, we got the margs "spicy," but my Texas palate said, "this is spicy?" It had a tajin rim, from what I can figure. ...Maybe we're not the normal Ohioan clientele. A bright note, the refried black beans and esquites were awesome and the esquites big enough to share. I ordered the Pescado Veracruz, the plating and sides were good but the mahi mahi was chewy and only slightly above room temperature. Like I said earlier, maybe I did myself a disservice by hoping to find my new favorite Mexican restaurant... but, I just don't see us going back for great margaritas and sides.
