It was a smaller store front, cozy and a hidden gem! The restaurant has so much personality, with years of awards proudly displayed throughout the dining room. Before the food even arrived, we knew we had found somewhere special. We started with the Bistro Onion Soup and the Red Pepper Lobster Bisque. French onion soup and lobster bisque are two of my all-time favorites, so my expectations were high. The Bistro Onion Soup absolutely delivered--rich, flavorful broth, perfectly tender onions, and an incredible blanket of melted cheese. Easily one of the best onion soups I've ever had. The Red Pepper Lobster Bisque was equally memorable. The sweetness of the roasted red peppers paired beautifully with the lobster, creating a unique twist that really worked. My husband and older son both ordered the Momma Mia. A spaghetti sandwich? We were intrigued! My son gave it a 9/10 and said it tasted like a lasagna sandwich. He'd order it again without hesitation. My youngest chose Ziggy the Piggy and declared it "the best sandwich I've ever had." That's high praise from a 10-year-old! He gave it a perfect 10/10, and the sandwich was nearly as big as his head. Honestly, reading the menu made us want to come back just to try everything else. Every item sounded delicious. What made the experience even better was the staff. They were warm, welcoming, and genuinely seemed to love what they do. That kind of hospitality is hard to fake, and it made us feel right at home. If you're passing through--or even if you're not--Zuppaman is absolutely worth the stop. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town.

I stopped on a Saturday at 11:30 am in May. Nobody was eating lunch - my first clue. Second clue -…read morethe outside of the building was dirty. Third clue - no items displayed in a case. I forged ahead, hoping I was wrong and this place was just not busy because of the road signs everywhere. No such luck. No bread. No "hand-dipped chocolates," three pieces of some pie, three pieces of something that looked like lemon bars? I bought three sugar cookies with red, white, and blue icing. I took them to go. After I finally opened the package, they were hard to open. It was tasteless, dry, and obviously made with pre-packaged sugar cookie dough. Yuck - not a return trip. Maybe the soup is good? They may have good sandwiches and paninis, but if you can't make a good sugar cookie, it is hard to see the value in anything else.

While driving through Kenton on our way to Port Clinton, we asked ChatGPT for lunch recommendations…read moreand were directed to The Sweet Note Cafe, described as one of the best lunch spots in town, offering sandwiches, soups, and a cozy, homemade feel. It was even highlighted as the "best overall lunch vibe." Unfortunately, our experience did not align with that recommendation. Upon arrival, we initially weren't sure the café was open. When we entered, we were met with a somewhat surprised reception, as though our presence was unexpected (Uh, oh... people!!). After a brief moment, someone approached the register to take our order. We each ordered a soup and a half sandwich. Overall, the food was underwhelming. The Caprese sandwich consisted primarily of mozzarella and tomato, notably lacking basil. It was served with a balsamic reduction, which added some needed flavor. I ordered the beer cheese soup, which resembled a thin, Velveeta-style cheese base with carrots and was quite bland--I found myself adding a significant amount of salt. My wife had the loaded baked potato soup and described it as unremarkable as well. For two half sandwiches, two cups of soup, and two bottled sodas, the total came to approximately $30. In our view, the quality did not justify the price. We left still feeling unsatisfied and ended up stopping at Love's for snacks. It seems the café may be better known as a bakery or confectionery, although there was limited evidence of that during our visit. Overall, we would likely choose a different option the next time we pass through Kenton.

Locals praise this restaurant as a fine dining establishment of Tiffin. Well.... I hope this isn't…read morethe only one as they are SOL if this is it. The space is amazing. Great building, decor and vibe. What killed the vibe was the patrons at the bar with the 4 year old going WWE on his drunk uncle like it was a backyard BBQ and the seating. Flimsy wooden stool like chairs or a straight high back booth. The most comfy spot in the room was the piano bench in the middle of the room. Apparently the restaurant was expecting a HUGE crowd for the eclipse. There wasn't one to Tiffin. Their limited menu and $35 dinner buffet went to waste. The buffet had been sitting out for hours. Dried out potatoes, pasta, ribeye slices that were now overcooked and chewy. We opted for the menu but momentarily were flustered that the limited menu also said cash only. Smh. Since the crowd wasn't a factor, the cash only was waived. Thankfully. (Then discovered they raised the prices on the limited menu for the event) Wasn't concerning but annoying since the event fell flat. I ordered the scallops and my husband the burger. Burger was fine, cooked to temp. Good pickles, great house made ketchup and duper fresh French fries. So good we ordered a second serving. My scallops were a joke. Three tiny 1" scallops under a coating of lobster cream sauce, and frozen chopped spinach all in a bed of overcooked white rice with some wild rice mixed in. Let's start top down. The lobster cream sauce was gritty and starting to separate. The chopped spinach was oddly bright green, unseasoned and should not have been on the plate. The scallops were fine but small. I could not eat the rest. It was awful. I ate the scallops and let her take the rest of the plate and order a side fries to supplement. I wish I had ordered the mushroom flatbread instead. Burger was good. I had a normal glass of white wine. Nothing notable. My husband ordered an old fashioned. It was good. He ordered a second and it was totally different than the first. To finish, we ordered a crème brûlée. It came out, not on a plate but just put on the table in the cup with two spoons laid on the table. Smh. Idk what was going on. They brought out a side of fries on a plate and even the side of mayo, earlier. It was just odd. The space is beautiful. The service is spotty. Food is a hard miss or home run, therefore good luck if you try it.
