Restaurants in Canal Winchester

“Excellent food with great flavor. Reasonable pricing. Service is routinely some of the best we have ever encountered. The staff consistently work together, lending a hand to each other. It works great for dining customers. The atmosphere is family friendly for sure.I highly recommend El Pedregal Mexican Restaurant.”

“Very friendly service and great atmosphere. Food was awesome and very little wait time. Met with our kiddos for a late birthday dinner for their mom. She had a blast.”

“Been here a few timesGreat little spot.... If there is a band playing the kitchen can be pretty slow so don't come expecting food right away.... Otherwise all around would recommend.”

“Wow! What a great time at Homestead. My husband and I stopped in for a drink and ended up staying a couple of hours. Had fun with the arcade bowling and darts. All of the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Jordan, the manager, was great, Dawn, the bartender, definitely knows her stuff, and Katelyn was great too! Beer was cold and pizza was tasty! Planning to come back with our adult kids to hang out. Fun place!”

“Always a great experience at Kingy's! Quick service, friendly staff, and awesome pizza. The funnel cake fries make for a sweet dessert, and the fresh made potato chips are always a winner.”

“Our family drives from Grove City just for this place. Every item on the menu tastes fresh and is very well done. It's got such an amazing small town restaurant feel. No matter who you are, they make you feel like family. You have to go in and try the food. I promise it's worth it. ”

“It's unfortunate that I feel compelled to write this review. Our family has been going to Shades since they opened; we remember the joy when they were finally able to sell wings. For years, it was at least a weekly stop, so it is safe to say we've been in there hundreds of times. We've developed relationships with many of the servers, bartenders, and managers. It was always a pleasure to see the young people grow up, move on to bigger and better things, grow families, see picture of their kids, etc. Was nice to see some of our favorite comes back for summer break or part-time and hear about what they'd been up to. In short, we liked the place!The kitchen has always been hit or miss. But... it used to be that the servers were always advocates for their customers and willing to make things right. Not so much anymore... we have generally stopped going there because it's gone so down downhill and the last several visits have been such disasters! Now, it seems that corrective and constructive actions have been replaced by defensive aggression towards the customers. (Don't tell the customer that the pitiful, shriveled single piece of lettuce that's very clearly been sitting under a heat lamp so long it's turned black next to the one end slice of tomato on a BLT is "just the way they make". Crap like that should have NEVER walked out the door if anyone who had any pride had seen it!!)Instead of working together as a team as we have seen them do over the years, recently, there has been noticeable catty behavior between the servers that honestly creates a very negative and toxic environment.Have talked to multiple people who have worked there or know people who have worked there and the stories are not pretty or flattering.When your server comes to your table and tells the customer (as ours did yesterday), "I just want to cry, I can't wait to get out of here"... maybe there's a problem.There are lots of specific incidents/details I could relate, but in general, I don't patronize places where I'm repeatedly demeaning, insulted, and made to feel a nuisance!!Congratulations Shades on developing a solid culture of mediocrity where belittling your customers for YOUR shortcomings has not only become acceptable, but the pervasive norm!!This is not sustainable, and unless the ship is righted and pride in customer service and product are returned, your days are numbered! Shades is a staple and beloved in Canal. Please take this feedback as a gift as our family genuinely wants you to be successful. You made it 20 years, but I will be amazed if you make it another 5 unless things change.”

“picked up food to go for the family, no complaints. Completion of the order was timed correctly and efficiently. Very glad the included chips and salsa is back! thank you.Kid-friendliness: Atmosphere is chill accepting of all ages.”

“My daughters order was good. I ordered my usual the chicken tenders & green beans. Green beans was good & ice tea. But the chicken tenders had a lot of fat. Forgot my creamy cheesy potato soup was good. And the rolls were off they were a bit empty inside a lot of air I guess. ”

“I was happy to see Cheese Chilito on the menu. I hadn't eaten one since Zantigos closed. Skyline's version combines a copious amount of cheese with the perfect amount of chili. Add a little sour cream and YUM!”

“We were in the area and saw this place. Being a breakfast connoisseur I had to check it out. The waitress was extremely nice and social. I told her I had never been there so she highlighted some of the menu items for me. Did you know they have an eight egg omelette? In all my travels through the entire country I don’t think I’ve ever encountered one. I ate half of it and saved the other half for later. It was great but some hot sauce would have made it perfect. It did come with salsa though.”

“Alexis was working solo and killed it! Her patience was amazing. The community coming together to help her made my first time here amazing. Will definitely come back!”

“The restaurant is clean, friendly service and the food is amazing. My favorite is the oxtail dish, the dibi lamb is very tasty, tried the jollof rice for the first time and it was delicious. I also tried the lamb shawarma, so good. I'm still working my way to taste everything on the menu. I highly recommend this restaurant; definitely a must to try. One of many of my favorite restaurants.”

“I’m obsessed with this place. I came on an extremely difficult day for me, and the server (maybe the owner?) was so caring, it made a very emotional day much better for me. The coffee is very well made, and the food is AMAZING. The chicken is to die to for, and my boyfriend said his chicken bacon ranch pizza was the best one he’s ever had. Thank you, Kumbha-Yah!!”

“Absolutely my new favorite sub spot, everyone who works here is so friendly and they always have a smile on their faces and treat people with such generosity and kindness. The food is always perfect and made with love. I can't recommend this place enough.”
