We visited this restaurant on Mothers Day. It was moderately crowded and we were seated promptly. The initial greeting was a bit off and not overly friendly. We were herded to our table and it took a bit to get a server over to us for at least water. We then learned that individual entree items on the menu were unavailable, so we were forced to order the brunch buffet. All well and good. The food was decent and good tasting. Good variety. The chicken picatta was excellent. The service was infrequent, but the waitress picked up her frequency of checking on us at the end.Now to the pricing. I was a bit shocked. 30.00 bucks a person. A bit much. I will proceed with caution if I visit again. Having a small group I was responsible for, was a pop in the nose.

Our experience was great. Dining area not all crowded, able to converse. They have a nice selection of beers and wine. The mixed drinks were a good proportion. The food was (take home amount) and very good. Our table had salmon, steak, pork chop and a chicken special without one complaint. The service was friendly and attentive. Food is up to the individual but I believe you will be satisfied at the Wood and Wine

Celebrated my grandsonâs HS graduation at BdB today. With a group of 12 I ordered three main entrees, a large pizza, fried mozz, a couple sides and mozzarella bread. Everyone had their fill, and plenty of leftovers.The food ranged from very good to fair. Chicken Fettuccine and the Brussel sprouts were very good. The chicken saltiboca was tasty, but chicken was not tender. The mozz bread was fair, at best....not worth the money, even if it had been better. They let us bring our own cake and provided plates and forks. If we would have had them serve the cake another $15 would have been tacked onto the bill. I appreciate that they told us do we could make the choice. Service was great, our server, Fallen did an excellent job taking care of our group. The place needs some updating and done cleaning. We sat in the Pope room and it was gross how sticky the floors were.
7. Pizza Cutter
Reviewed By willsmom09
I have been a fan of Pizza Cutter for as long as I can remember...up until Friday night, when they decided to call the police on me! Apparently, they have stopped accepting checks as payment. So when the delivery driver dropped off the pizzas, I tried to give him my Visa card. He said no, you have to call it in. Within 45 minutes of them delivering the pizza, I had 3 (YES 3) Avon Lake Police cars at my house, 2 officers and the Pizza Cutter owner at my door. They claimed I wasn't answering my phone and they tried to come to the door but no one answered. ALL NOT TRUE!!! That's the last time I will order their pizza again. What a bad business. Shame on YOU PIZZA CUTTER.

Tried this for the first time. The pizza was wonderful. My recommendation--house sauce with pork, green olives, mushrooms, artichokes and spinach. It also would have been good without the pork if you're traveling with vegetarians.Very friendly service.It's a new restaurant in an old location. It could use some up-dating. But I will definitely go back.

We love the pizza here. I am of northern Italian descent, and am fussy about my pizza sauce. Although a tad sweet, this pizza is more like my grandmother made than most pizzerias, which use too piquant a sauce. Their thin crust is the best. Not cracker thin, just less doughy , which lets you taste the ingredients. The staff, no matter how busy, is always pleasant. One negative, the pizza here is somewhat pricy.
4. In Forno Pizza Napolitana

My wife and I visited In Forno Pizza Napolitana for the first time on Friday a little before noon. Were not sure what to expect, but both of us were very pleased with the pizzas we ordered - I had the "bianca", and my wife had a "pepperoni". They're about 12 inches with thin crusts so one to a person is about right. We brought home three pieces. Our waitress was very good, and she and the owner (?) pizza maker were both most cordial. Only issue we had was that the atmosphere felt like a "fast food" restaurant, and we unintentionally rushed through our lunches. Maybe the addition of booths along one wall would help. It is a small place, and the wood fired pizza oven takes up a prominent space. Overall, we'd most certainly visit again.

Reviewed By Dmarkwind
This restaurant almost seems too nice for downtown Avon Lake. Itâs a small cozy place with brick arched doorways and cloth tablecloths. The atmosphere, food, and service were all great when our party of four visited on an August evening. Everyone seemed to enjoy what they had. Two of us got the chicken parm, and were amazed at how large it was and how much leftovers we had! The menu included pizza, a variety of pasta dishes, as well as other Italian favorites including veal Marsala, chicken piccatino or scarpariello, seafood, and steaks, chops, and lamb. The warm mushroom salad with sauteed mushrooms, cranberries and goat cheese sounded especially interesting. May have to get back here sometime.

When Fratelloâs opened nearly thirty years ago, I was a restaurant critic for a newspaper and hungry for a new restaurant in my lakeside community. Little did I know that this Italian eatery, housed unpretentiously in a former Lawson Milk Store, would turn out to be the intimate, classy and extremely fine restaurant it was. And little did I know that all these years later it would still be the fine restaurant it was - only better. Over the years the offerings have been enhanced, but the dishes that made Fratellos a hit back then, that built its faithful customer base and word of mouth trade, are still there: Chicken Fratello, Veal Fratello, with their signature and luscious lemon butter sauce; their slightly tangy house marinara sauce, and veal saltimbocca, to name a few. What Fratellos has mastered is the fine art of consistency: consistently fine food, fine service, fine wines and a fine ambiance where guests donât have to worry about ever being disappointed. Go once, but be prepared to return again and again.
