“We have been coming here yearly for our anniversary dinner. We make a 40 minute drive to come here. I have told multiple people about this restaurant. We have had multiple perfect dinners here.The Service and drinks were perfect this visit. My medium steak was charred and had to send back. Although they offered me and my husband a desert so we could at least eat that together.. we declined. They did give me a free drink but for a $200 dinner including tip would of liked to had dinner with my husband for our 7 year anniversary. Unfortunately we don't get out often with 2 young kids so won't be venturing out again that way after our last experience.All of the times before that have been perfect. I am sad this was our go to for our anniversaries.”

“First and foremost, FANTASTIC! Love the way the storefront is set up. The staff was very kind. I thought it was a little pricey while I was ordering... But then I tasted the food and it made total sense! The food is amazing! Highly recommend the Betty White, the Jefferies, and the cannolis. I'm a sucker for a good cannoli and theirs are ON POINT! Their food is perfectly simple, or simply perfect. It's not overly seasoned and not under seasoned. It's simple and delicious. Toppings tasted very fresh and there was PLENTY of cheese on all dishes. They have fantastic crust too. Wish I would've gotten something to dip my crust in ? all in all, fantastic experience and I'll definitely be returning. Was at Akron city hospital having a baby but I'll gladly make the trip from Barberton to pickup some of their (should be award winning) pizza!”

“So far above the rest! This restaurant from start to finish is the entire dining experience personified! From the convenience of the valet and coat check, to the host who always makes certain that you are welcome to be there, this dining experience is old school full service. The food is exceptional, steaks are cooked to perfection the way a steak should be cooked and full of flavor. Seafood is always fresh, sharable sides are generous and some of the best I have ever had. Just like with everything else every attention to detail at Lanning's is carefully paid attention to. Its a group effort here and it shows. If you are looking for a true first class dining experience and top notch food that is worth every penny.. Dean Martin's Lanning's is an absolute must go!”

566 White Pond Dr, Akron

“We had a reservation but still had to wait about 20 minutes, which is understandable on a Saturday night with a full restaurant. The veal and lemon butter sauce were fantastic and reasonably priced! I would absolutely order it again. The pastas are not homemade, which is a bummer at an Italian restaurant. But the sauces are homemade and the marinara was great! Our server Ann Marie was great! She made great recommendations and didn’t just try to steer us to the most expensive thing. I’m glad I listened to her suggestions. The wine selection is awesome and tastes great. The only thing I would change about the atmosphere is that we were seated in a very bright part of the dining room and it was a little too bright. Other spots were dimmer so I would ask for a table there next time. I would definitely come back! The portions are also perfect in my opinion.”

“Alrighty folks.My friend and I tasted this beer at a local pub in Ottawa. After scouring the beer stores, we realized it cannot be bought here. What did we do? ROAD TRIP TO AKRON!We drove down to Akron on a Saturday morning. 510 miles later we were in the tasting room, talking to Fred, the owner. What an awesome man. Had some good chats and he left us with his crew.Now, the crew... Drew, a stellar bartender with some of the best, bar non, customer service I have ever had. He's friendly, very hospitable and all smiles.His cohorts, Tatiana, Madison, Dominique... I can't say anything negative about it! Their professionalism and good up beat attitudes is a rare commodity where I come from. Once again, very happy people.The beer was great. Lots of stouts. Lots of products available for purchase. Shandy's , blonde ales, cask aged beers, kegs... International award winning beers! Great food. Man... I'd write on forever, but I don't think you'd read on, so I'll keep it brief.Fred, you have a banging brew-pub there. Your staff's engagement and attitude is a direct reflection on your leadership. My only regret? Not getting to chat with you more. I'm starting my all grain brewing and really could have used some pointers, to get a rock solid foundation going.That said, we will be back. Most likely in the summer for Shandy days! We will bring our wives. Haha!We love you guys! We hope you enjoyed our coming over as much as we enjoyed going over.I'll be calling soon. I need specs on using the keg I bought (psi and temp) to serve that to my friends in true Hoppin' Frog style.Peace from up north. :)”

If I wasn’t just traveling in the area this place would be my go-to. If you’re looking for a wonderful meal, I suggest Jerzee’s Sports Pub! :)”

“$18.00 bar tab. Need I say more? No, but I will. Redstone is an old bar in an old neighborhood in Akron. It is old school and cozy. The regulars hang at the bar sipping beers and cocktails. Talking about the same things they talked about yesterday because, well, it is Akron. The husband and wife team owners are very nice and friendly. They are, however, new to the bar owner game and have some things to learn. Taking a class of Bar Owning 101 should help. If you visit Redstone and the owner (wife) is your bartender and you order a cocktail, be prepared to help her with it. My buddy ordered a vodka tonic and he had to help her with the ingredients. I know, I know, vodka tonic. She was super sweet and with a bit of help she made a quality vodka tonic. Becky and I were having bottled beer/canned White Claw, so no issues. The next time we are in Akron, you can be sure we will visit Redstone again. $2.75 for a bottle of beer, are you kidding me? My last beer was at happy hour price, $2.00! Are you friggin' serious right now? Two bucks for a beer? Hell yeah we'll be back to Redstone! We can't afford not to! Yuengling!”

“I had the Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich. The Parmesan Risotto and the Strawberry Whiskey Smash. My husband had the Rodeo Burger and fries. We also had the hot chocolate cake with ice cream and caramel and chocolate drizzle. (No picture) The bacon is thick and smoky, great taste, but no crispness. The chicken was tender and not dry. The batter was light, which was nice. I really dislike having chicken with over powering batter or breading on it. Then spending half my dinner taking it apart. The Risotto was flat tasting. I added salt and it was much better. Just as a side note, I am not the biggest fan of salt. The strawberry in the drink was so smashed up that I wondered if I needed a strainer to drink it. I wished it was more whiskey, less sugar. But that's my preference. It was very sweet. My husband wanted the vaccine to be crisp at least a little. He thought it would have made the sandwich more enjoyable. The hot chocolate cake was great. It's not a thick piece, but approximately 5" in length. It had 4 small scoops of ice cream with chocolate and caramel drizzle. Plenty for sharing. The restaurant was cold. I heard others complain about the temperature also. We had to wear our jackets.”

“YES THIS PLACE!!!!! FOOD IS GREAT!! Hello again!!!! I'm back with another lip smacking, food place for you. This time it's in Akron OH.... I wanted some Soul Food and I found this and it was not too far from where I was headed. Being from the South we know soul food, especially in Texas! When I pulled up there was only one car in the parking lot. I walked to the door and the sign read, "If doors are locked come to drive thru".. I understood that completely because it gets dark real early up here. When I got to the window I wondering what to expect.... You know how you go to certain places and the person at the window working has an attitude? NOT THIS PLACE!! A very nice lady came and greeted me with a smile. I told her it was my first time and she gave me a menu and started to explain what they had. Check my history and you will know I got the Fried Chicken Wings. I also got Collard greens and pinto beans and and extras side of potato salad. You ever been to a Soul Food Restaurant and the veggies are Luke warm or just don't taste good? NOT THIS PLACE!!!!! All of the veggies were fresh and they were good. Some places you go to, you have to be careful of their potato salad... NOT THIS PLACE!! The potato salad was on point. I am not making this up! It was good. Now to the main course. The Fried Wings... OMG!!!! In some places wings are over seasoned or over battered and cooked hard or greasy!!!!! (hello Cracker Barrel) NOT THIS PLACE!!!!! Listen to me real good! Every wing that I ate was cooked to perfection, I am so serious right now. These wings were not heavenly battered, they were not overly seasoned, they were hot and fresh right out of the fryer!!!! Now don't expect to order your food at the window and it be ready in 2-3 minutes... these wings were cooked to order. But!! The wait was not long and there were two other cars they helped as well. I'm guessing I was there less than 10 mins. I wasn't really paying attention. Lastly, you know how most Soul Food places will charge you an arm and a leg for 5 wings, 3 veggies, and a small kool-aid... it would be expensive.... NOT THIS PLACE!!!!! I got all of this food for under $16.00... I left a tip and to be honest the tip should have been double! I'm serious everyone around Akron or passing through, this is one place that could be something special in the community!!! I am not from here but to receive service with a smile and have good food is something to be said!!! So if you are looking for a place that has average food, unfriendly service, with a high price tag!!!! Say it loud!!! NOT THIS PLACE!!!! Go enjoy the food, it's really good! (No pictures, I ate it too quick, I will be back in there next week and will post the pictures).”

Being ladies, we were later than we would have liked and were in a rush and ALSO didn't have a reservation. The atmosphere in that place is just lovely, but since we didn't have reservations and it was a busy Friday we were seated in the basement (which we didn't even know they had). I gave the atmosphere a 4 because of us being in the basement and having poor lighting. The rest of the restaurant is a 5 star.We loved our waitress Bree! she did a fabulous job at getting us in and out fast for the show. She also went up and beyond when she heard it was my friend's birthday and made her feel extra special with a sparkler and a shot of tequila. This girl was fast, efficient and did a damn good job.
