My fave items were the chicken wings, salmon croquettes and the soul rolls. Everything was bussin with flavor and just plain delicious. I love the location of the restaurant being inside the market eatery because it is perfect for family and friends. We ordered food and enjoyed walking around to shop with other vendors and playing some complimentary games they had available to guests. I will be a frequent visitor anytime I'm in Akron for sure!

We also had a bowl with same sides, but with chicken and gravy that was also good. The chicken wings were fried to perfection.

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.

This was our first time ever dining here. We heard about it via Facebook and since I love lobster…read moreand they were having lobster fest, we had to check it out. From the outside, it looks like a typical bar and grill. Inside, is very nicely decorated and the staff was very friendly and attentive. We started with drinks- orange margaritas and they were tasty and boozy. Next, I ordered the lobster bisque. Let me tell you, as advertised, it came with lobster meat! I ate an entire bowel! The bisque was creamy just like I wanted it. Next, the lobster stuffed mushrooms which were DELICIOUS! Plenty of cheese, garlic and butter and...yes...LOBSTER! Lastly, I had the lobster and steak Alfredo and it was Amazing! Very creamy and cheesy. It came with spinach in it and the steak was tender. The lobster was cooked perfectly too! I couldn't eat it all because it was a big portion but I ate it the next day and it tasted even better reheated! If you are in the area, stop in there. You will be happy you did.

I didn't get a picture but it was huge. It was one of the best Reuben's I've ever had. It came with fresh cut fries and a pickle. The service was somewhat lacking as I sat ignored for the first 5 min but they were 40 min from closing so maybe they were distracted. I will definitely give them another visit soon!

The food was so good and very reasonably priced. The wings and fried chicken were delicious. Sides were good, too! I left there very full with leftovers. I'll definitely be going back again to try more of the menu. (I am not going to let this dock my rating--but I will say the decor/interior and overall vibe was kind of odd. Dark and not very appealing. Also, there was a tabletop display explaining they want to be fun, but then went on to explain the automatic tip various etiquette/rules. Felt the opposite of fun. Anyways, I don't presume to know what it's like to own and operate a restaurant, but it stuck out to me and did impact the atmosphere.)
