We were in town visiting friends in Wooster who heard about this place so we decided to try it out…read more The place looks amazing from the outside and even more amazing inside with the relic cars, signs, bicycles, etc. The decor is is awesome. We arrived around lunch time and it wasn't too busy. We had to seat ourselves because there was nobody in the front. Once we sat down, our waitress came to see if we wanted anything to drink which was nice. We ordered some bloody Mary's, sweat tea, hot chocolate, and waters. Our waitress came back a little bit to take our orders. We ordered the Chicken Fried Steak breakfast, the Sliders, Combo meal which came with a slider and chicken tenders, Rueben sandwich, and the Club sandwich. Our drinks took a bit to get but finally came out and they were delicious. We received our food shortly after that as well. Chicken Fried Steak breakfast-was cooked good, sausage gravy was good, could use a little more seasonning. Eggs cooked perfect, and the toast was great. Sliders-Plenty of food, sliders were huge, the meat was cooked well, I could use med rare but it was still great. hash browns were also cooked perfect. Combo meal which came with a slider, chicken tenders, and tator tots-They all were cooked perfectly. Rueben sandwich-The flavor was good but the bread was a little soggy. Club sandwich-It was cooked perfect and plenty of tots. After our meal we ordered the Salty Caramel and the Chocolate Malt shakes. Both of those shakes were delicious and plenty of shake to drink. The ambience inside is a must see. The service could have been better because it did take some time to get our food and drinks. Overall the food was good and I would go back to try something else.

But before diving into football greatness, they made a pit stop at the legendary Chloe's Diner--a blast from the past that served up not just food, but a time-traveling experience! Picture this: classic 50's, 60's, and 70's vibes, surrounded by vintage cars, banana bikes, Good Humor Ice Cream cart, and memorabilia that screamed nostalgia! The group couldn't eat too fast because their eyes were glued to the treasures of yesteryear stories of first dates in old-school rides filled the air. It was a touchdown of flavor and memories! Chloe's Diner wasn't just a meal; it was a full-on sensory celebration. What a win for the team before heading to the Hall of Fame!

Definitely diner decor. There were a decent number of people eating. Seemed to be a mix of Bfast and lunch meals being served. Also seemed like a lot of regulars because employees were spending time talking to certain tables. We got the roast beef open face with gravy and mashed potatoes, the patty melt with onion rings, and the BBQ burger with fries. The roast beef was bland. Needed more seasoning. The 2 burgers were well done. We both liked them medium rare. But we weren't asked how we like them cooked when we ordered. Onion rings were breaded and only got about 5. Fries were abundant and fresh cut. Much better than the onion rings. Overall the food was just average if not slightly below average. Prices were good. Parking plentiful. Service was not great. No one asked us if we wanted refills or to check on us. We had to ask for our check after we waited awhile. Probably not a repeat.

Particularly for breakfast. So, off I went... First of all, I should tell you that I love places like this! I love little breakfast joints, particularly with an old school diner counter! They straddle the line between "hole in the wall" and a "regular" stand alone restaurant (if that makes sense). The ambiance and feel is exactly a place I would frequent. Service was diligent and focused...maybe to a fault. Toward the end I felt a little pressure to finish and leave. But, my coffee cup was always full (Jack Reacher would be proud)! I opted for the meat lovers scramble, which came out surprisingly quickly. I was honestly a tad disappointed in the portion size, but that's the only negative thing I can say! Pricing is about right, I just wish there'd been more food. If I'd stayed in Canton longer, I'd seriously consider going back.

The waitress was super nice. The food came out pretty fast. This is the type of diner that we have back in NYC and the food was very good! Simple and nothing flashy. For 2 people it was almost $30. A bit overpriced in my opinion. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars, if you are sitting in the booth, and someone is sitting on the other side, you can feel them through the chair. I wasn't able to lean back the whole time due to this, and every time the gentleman on the other side moved, I felt it, and it was uncomfortable.

Fred's Diner is a sparkling diamond of a place that so many locals I mentioned it to were still…read moreunaware of. That's mostly due to location. It's less than a 10 minute drive from downtown Akron but it's off the beaten path. All locals (except me) in here. When I went (10AM Friday) the place was almost full, and I was dining alone, so I sat at the counter, happily next to the kitchen. To look at the kitchen was like looking inside a bee hive, bustling with activity but barely a sound. I could just make out what was being calmly stated "2 Silver Dollar, Salmon, Country Fried, 2 Over Easy..." It was fun to watch, but what was important was the output. It took just over 6 minutes from the time I order until it was sitting in front of me, and everything was perfect! The waitresses were so efficient. I saw my order hit the window and in about 12 seconds it was delivered. They were so customer focused, they were (jokingly) fighting over refilling my tea. When I was done and paid for I waited outside for Uber to pick me up (3 min). I looked back on what I'd just experienced, and snapped a picture of the two parking lots of cars for Fred's Diner. I counted and there were 32 cars at Fred's. OK maybe 10 were staff so 22 cars for customers, let's say on average there were 2 customers per car (remember I walked here so no car for me). By my calculation, Fred's was feeding 44 people every 30 minutes or so. No wonder they're only open 4 days a week and only for breakfast - lunch. I calculate they might serve 3200 meals in those 4 days, and then take 3 days off to get ready for the next week. I love this place. Wish I lived here so I could come more often.

The ambiance here is exactly what you would expect from a neighborhood bar and grill and it seems to work well for them. The people working and dining all seemed to be enjoying themself and there was an overall positive vibe in the place. As for the wings, they have about a dozen different flavors to choose from and I chose the classic buffalo and their dry seasoned. The wings were nice and plump and well cooked and I would definitely get some again. Also,for a good deal they are only $0.40 each on Tuesdays when you dine-in!

Finally made it to Ido Bar & Grill for Lobster Fest after hearing so many good things, and now I…read moreunderstand the hype! We had reservations and arrived to a fully set table waiting for us. There was a small hiccup with drinks taking a while to reach the table, but the manager noticed and immediately stepped in. The food was outstanding. We shared the Lobster Stuffed Mushrooms, and I ordered a lobster tail with a cup of Lobster Bisque. The bisque was rich, creamy, buttery and legitimately LOADED with large chunks of lobster. One of the best I've had. My lobster tail was huge, tender and perfectly cooked, with none of the rubbery texture you sometimes get. Even better, the melted butter comes to the table kept warm over a candle. Others at our table had the Lobster & Steak Alfredo, which came loaded with big pieces of lobster and beautifully seared steak. I attempted to sample said steak, but my girlfriend apparently considered it a protected resource. Lobster Fest genuinely felt like a little coastal seafood experience in the middle of Akron. Great first visit to Ido, and definitely not my last. I'm already looking forward to trying their regular menu and other seasonal specials!

Have you ever had a meal that you're STILL thinking about days later?…read more Yeah. This was that meal for me. I've lived in the Akron area my entire life and have known about Ido Bar & Grill for more than 20 years. And somehow, in all that time, I had never been inside. Not once. It just never really caught my attention. Then Lobster Fest happened. My boyfriend started seeing their ads all over Facebook and got curious. He asked in a few Facebook groups and on his personal page if it was actually worth trying, and the response was pretty much unanimous: GO. So we grabbed another couple of friends, made a reservation, and finally walked through the doors. First impressions? I was genuinely surprised by how large the restaurant is inside. It's beautifully decorated, comfortable, and has a completely different feel than I had pictured after driving past it all these years. I started with the Summertini, which was delicious, but honestly...the drinks were just the opening act. THE FOOD. I've only ever had lobster once before--a tiny bite that I remember being surprisingly good. I'd never had enough to actually order a full lobster dish, so I decided Lobster Fest was the perfect excuse to change that. My meal came with a side salad and I'm a huge fan of White French dressing so I was very happy to hear that was their house dressing. The salad was a nice blend of greens with fresh shaved cheddar and delicious house made croutons! The salad was a great start to my meal!!! For my entree, I went with the Lobster & Steak Fettuccine, and I am so glad I did. The portion was HUGE, and the Alfredo was exactly what I want Alfredo to be: rich, creamy, cheesy and loaded with garlic. And there was PLENTY of it. No sad, dry pasta happening here. The steak was seasoned perfectly and cooked just right, and there was a generous amount of lobster throughout the dish. Every bite was better than the last. And apparently, I wasn't the only one at the table making good decisions. The Lobster Bisque was absolutely packed with lobster. The Lobster Stuffed Mushrooms were delicious, and my boyfriend ordered the lobster tail and was completely obsessed with it. Basically, there wasn't a bad decision made at our table. The funniest part of the whole experience is realizing that I've apparently been sleeping on a fantastic Akron restaurant for TWENTY YEARS. ‍ I'm honestly a little annoyed with myself. But I intend to make up for lost time. We'll absolutely be back--not just for another featured menu (a lot of people suggested their Mardi Gras menu), but to work our way through the regular menu, too. After one visit, I already have a list of things I want to try. So, Ido Bar & Grill...you've officially gone from "that restaurant I've driven past for 20 years" to "why the hell didn't I come here sooner?" Apparently, sometimes it takes a Facebook ad and a little peer pressure to discover what's been right under your nose the whole time. If you've been considering trying it, take this as your sign.
