Yummmmmm!
Lauren K.

My family and I were car-shopping nearby when I opened my Yelp app and saw a Yelp ad for Skyway. My Mom and I were sooo happy -- we used to go to the one in Stow when it was open. We're not familiar at all with Akron, so we were happy campers to see this old-fashioned goodness was just 1/2 a mile away. Skyway has been around since the 1950's, and truly, the old school roots are what makes it so much fun. You pull up (lights for service!) and place your order with the guy or gal who runs out to your car. The menu is full of good ol' favorites. Burgers, fries, floats and malts, you name it. The intergenerational crowds of cars around you really speak to this. In the words of my Mom, "it's so hard to find a good malt anymore" -- and Skyway has that authentic, fizzy, rich flavor that is super crave-worthy. No one understands the art of the malt anymore. NO ONE. Shoutout to Skyway for keeping it alive. The menu is inexpensive, so just go ahead and treat yourself to whatever you want. Sauerkraut balls, fries, potato teesers, zucchini sticks... why not! Look, if you've made it this far, you're clearly not worried about calories. You can't go wrong with any of the burgers. They cook them with a little sugar, which is what makes them special. Yum. Just yum. Okay, Skyway, you've proved why you're still around. We'll be back.

Great Burgers yes sirreee! If you want to mix it up Swenson's Dilly's and Sky way boy what a great Area

2 burgers, onion ring, sky hi sauce and a cola.

This is 'thee' burger experience to have. If you incarnate on earth and you want the burger, fried appetizer and cola experience this is the place to get it. I've had five guys, in and out, swensons, all good of course but Skyway has my favorite fast food burgers around, and they are even better than the dine in and sit down restaurants I've had over my lifetime. The onion rings, my favorite ever. Get a side of sky hi sauce to dip them in. In my photos you will see I got the sky hi burger with extra pickles and the half pound burger with extra pickles. Some of my bites even had a full pickle slice in them, this was a delicious meal! Ryan was my server and he was super friendly! I got a chocolate and peanut butter malt to go! You want a semi-sloppy burger that makes you feel like your taking a bite out of heaven? This is the place. It is worth the drive.

We visited on a Monday night...thought we'd have a drink at the bar prior to our dinner…read morereservation, but the bar was full! How fun! So we had drinks at our table. When the martinis were served, the server Abbe, brought the extra in a tiny carafe in a glass of ice. So unusual and greatly appreciated! I had the french onion soup which was delicious, as well as, the pasta special. For dessert, we each ordered a different dessert. I thought my pick was the best...Chocolate kahlua truffles. My companions each thought their choice was the best...so a great hit all the way around

My work, a group of 10, had their end of the year dinner party here in mid December of 2025 and we…read morewere overall, happy with our service, food, and experience, despite service being a little slow and prices a little high and some food a little bland. I'd give this a 4.25 stars. If you read my reviews, you know that terrible car accidents happen to me after work dinners (see review on The Industry for one such example). Thankfully, dear readers, I did not have any car incidents after THIS specific work dinner. Haha! Anyway, The Bistro of Green is in a strip mall five minutes from my work office and is an institution for locals in the area - people in my group were reminiscing about coming to Bistro multiple times a month before Covid, back when they were open for lunch. The menu seems to change often. They do have a couple specials on a board outside the door that are not on their printed menu, just FYI. Our dinner took over 2 and a half hours, starting with complimentary bread and our drinks of choice. The free bread was fine. I ordered a seasonal cocktail, the Apple Cranberry Sangria, despite cocktails not having a price listed (see menu picture). I tend never to order things that do not have the price listed but the cocktail sounded too good to resist. It was yummy and very sugary and fruity, with added mint leaves that definitely brought it up a notch! Our party also split 4 appetizers: the hot peppers ($13), baked provolone ($14), calamari ($16), and flatbread ($16). As the portions are not meant to be shared between 10 people, I only had a little bit of each. I wasn't into the peppers (too mushy) but the calamari was my favorite! I could see myself ordering this as a dinner just for myself in the future. Two thirds of the hot pepper dish was ignored by the group in the end. For my main, half of which I took home as it was getting very late and my drive back home is almost an hour, I chose to get the Bistro burger (medium rare) and fries ($18). This was chosen based on cost alone - even though I really wanted a chicken or steak dish, I just could not afford them. I am only a lonely assistant, not a CEO! I debated getting one of the other sandwich options, also both $18, but the lack of pictures either on Google or Yelp made me just stick with a burger. My lack of funds kept me from being too adventurous for this dinner, sadly. Next time, I'd be down to try their fancy grilled cheese (or steak, if someone else foots the bill). The burger was good, although not amazing, and the fries were that nice mix of just oily and crispy enough. Service was okay. Things apparently got busy at the bar, so it took longer than it should have for us to get our drinks and food throughout the night. As for vibes, it was nicely decorated for Christmas, lights were dim, and Christmas music played softly in the background. No complaints here! In the end, for a sangria, burger, fries, tax, and tip (plus a 3% surcharge for using a credit card), my dinner cost me over $40. Can you imagine just how much worse the bill would have been if I hadn't gotten the cheapest thing on the menu? Next time, I will also remember to bring cash. And choose a more unique dish.

I have to say, my experience at 1787 Tavern and Grill was so bad it was almost comical. I would…read moreonly recommend if you are getting to the hotel late and need something without high expectations it would be okay. We were in town for a wedding nearby and most of the family was staying at the hotel where the restaurant is located. Because most of the group was from out of town, everyone decided to eat at this restaurant located in the hotel to avoid transportation. We had the entire restaurant to ourselves with some other patrons at the bar. When our waitress brought just three menus for a party of seven and tossed a stack of Dollar store napkins in the middle of the table, with silverware on top, I should've known what was coming. The first three things I tried to order from the menu--soup of the day, chicken marsala, and broccoli--were all unavailable. Yes, three in a row! I finally ended up with a steak that I asked for medium, but it came out completely cooked through with no pink at all. Between the missing menu items, lackluster presentation, and poorly cooked food, the whole experience was a huge letdown. One thing they obviously had on hand was plenty of salt! I'm pretty sure we all consumed our limit of sodium for the week. One thing I can say is that all of the staff were extremely friendly and nice. I truly felt bad for our waitress. I gave the three stars based on the fact that the hotel uses the same area for breakfast and the server deserved five stars for breakfast. It was not a large buffet, but it was well presented and fresh (real scrambled eggs with cheese made on site which seems to be a rarity hotels these days).

My bartender,Sydney was great, made a strong drink and was very friendly and knowledgeable. I…read moreordered chicken wings which were very good and a large portion. This is a bar in a hotel lobby but way above my expectations. Stop by for a strong drink and a quick bite, you won't be disappointed!

This review of 35 Brix in Uniontown is me bundling a few visits into one review with an overall…read morescore of 3.5 stars. I've had 35 Brix about 5 or 6 times in the past year - once eating in and 4 or 5 times catered at work. I could have sworn I would have posted a review of my food from 35 Brix by now, but according to Yelp, I have not yet. Long story short, it is a nice place in Uniontown, Ohio with a pretty extensive menu and are okay at catering work lunches, but the food always sounds better then it actually tastes. In the 5 or 6 times I've had lunch from 35 Brix, I have been disappointed in my food 2 or 3 times. The one time I have eaten in, I got a chicken flatbread pizza and enjoyed that very much. However, when ordering my catered lunch of choice, there have been as many hits as misses. Memorably, the reuben sandwich was wayyyy to wet and a bit weak on the meat. Fries can be floppy and unseasoned as well. I do remember enjoying their Cobb salad and was impressed at the freshness of the produce. However, the one time I ordered the Berry Crunch Salad with Blackened Shrimp, I was disappointed to see how stingy they were on the shrimp. For $21, I was expecting more than 3 little shrimpies. As for the lunch from today, (February 11th, 2026), I was feeling like being a fatty but also a health queen and ordered the prime rib wrap (light sauce) and a brix wedge salad as my side (no blue cheese or dressing) which has an upcharge. I had ordered a brix wedge salad back in August 2025 with feta instead of blue cheese and it was quite good. Sadly, my wedge salad was not a winner this time - too few vegetables and they put the blue cheese in there, despite me asking for them not to include it! It was very hard picking out the blue cheese and kind of ruined my salad experience, ngl. My prime rib wrap was a little better. They listened and put the sauce on the side (#healthqueen) but this $16 wrap was a bit skimpy on the prime rib. Tasted good though. So 35 Brix isn't a 5 star joint for me, despite some of the good meals I have had here. They tend to mess up orders from time to time too. I do recommend trying their food for yourself though! Some of the items are quite creative, like the sweet potato pizza or the bougie pierogies! I do wish to try one of their cocktails too!

Love this place! Been going regularly for a few years. Orders are always great and accurate.read more
