We discovered this restaurant on a recent trip to Akron and it is a delight! We had excellent service and a delicious meal. Service was a bit slow (to get the food we ordered, not refills), so make sure you have time to stick around! The house fries are excellent.

This place has incredible meat. Prices just a little more than average. Gets a little crowded when they are busy.
