Water Street Tavern

Reviewed By az2ret

The place is and icon. I've always enjoyed being there, but the last 2 times have been average at best. Don't know what's happene to the fun atmosphere? I'll continue trying. The bar tenders seem bored and somewhat put out by us sitting at the bar.

Bellacino's Pizza and Grinders

Joining my friends for an after-golf lunch we chose to go to this place for a sandwich and beer. With a multitude of sandwich (grinder) options and a vast array of pizza selections (as well as many other menu items) we were surprised to see that it was 'counter ordering only'...even for your beer. A bit of a strange setup, but the beer was cold and the sandwich was just okay...albeit a bit messy. A bit of a mundane experience overall.Thanks for the feedback. We are counter service from 11-4. Have been for 19 years. We do however offer full service from 4-close (including a bartender) come check is out after 4 if that's more your style. Hope to see you soon.

Buffalo Wild Wings

Reviewed By Deirdre R

Buffalo Wild Wings is known for its great wings, but did you know they serve really great burgers too? Well, I just made this discovery while here in Kent, OH. My burger was hot, juicy, and not from being greasy either. I was pleasingly surprised. Now I'm going to have to compare this burger with the ones in my neighborhood Buffalo Wild Wings. It's always a great venue for catching and viewing sports and the atmosphere is always pleasing in these establishments. I was not disappointed at this location at all. Being in a college town environment, this was really a great place to dine.

Not exactly sure how you differentiate one Applebee's from the next… But the staff is friendly, the food was as expected, the beer was cold, and it ended up being a nice evening out with my family.

Rocknes

Reviewed By Jillsy0927

We ate here with a 9 month old. Wait staff was friendly and very accommodating. They even gave us a small bag of Teddy Grahams for the baby with our check. Bacon cheese burger was good. Fries a little greasy; you get a TON of them. Mozzarella sticks were good. Chicken fingers were good. First time at this chain. Large menu. Would definitely go again if in the area.

Cellar 59

Reviewed By Tabitha9703

This is an old house that sits right on the main road. Porch is nice but not a winery feel if that is what you are looking for... Thought they would offer more wines but it was a very limited single serve glass menu. Think one of each kind of wine. It was an okay place but could sit on my porch and have more variety;)

Stopped here to kill time before my boy friends sons play. Great ambiance, friendly fast service, and a great sports viewing bar. Outside seating available as well. Had a mimosa and my bf had a beer. Watched the Indians game and just chilled out before play. Great spot!!!

Reviewed By CaptainSPI

Wow! What a great little place for burgers and beer on a Thursday. The burgers are only $1.50 and the Yuenglings were just $2.50. The two of us had Shark burgers, one with goat cheese and the other jalapenos (both with lettuce, tomatoes, grilled onion) along with a basket of fries. All were really good and just enough. Get this, for all of that along with two Yuenglings, it only cost $16.00! Amazing, good food, good service, good times! Definitely try this one!

Ray's Place

Reviewed By SuperSteelers

We are from Pittsburgh, our daughter and boyfriend came down from Cleveland and our other daughter and boyfriend reside in Kent.This restaurant is always a great meeting place. We have been coming here since our first daughter went to Kent State in 2009. Now that we are in different parts of the Tri-State area, Ray’s is the place to meet.We have always been pleased with our selections. My oldest is so DISSAPOINTED Ray’s no longer offers the Antipasta Salad! Please bring it back. We celebrated Father’s Day here. We will be back very soon!
