“The food is really good at Chowder House. The entrees are over priced. My husband ordered the cioppino and there was very little there and it was very expensive. More than it should cost for the quantity - and more than it would cost in other restaurants for the same quantity/quality. The seafood pappardelle is very good and very rich - a little goes a long way. The service isn't great. Nearly every time a server walked by our table one of them bumped my chair. Maybe they're trying to squeeze too many tables in. With a few tweaks this good be a really good place. If I go back I will get two apps and leave it at that. Maybe we were there on a mediocre night. It's probably worth a try.“
“We have been here a few times and consistently enjoyed the food. It is not somewhere we take our kids because they aren't into seafood and would get some basic fried food which isn't worth it in our opinion. The gems are the boils. We typically get the head off shrimp + lobster tail boils, my husband adds sausage to his. It costs around $36 each but is two meals for each of us. Hot tip, make some noodles, and turn your leftovers into a pasta dish with the amazing sauce/seasoning!It has not been very busy when we go, but the servers are a little absent. Never seem to get water refills.Parking: Huge free lot in the shopping center.“
“We were a party of 6. Two of us got the all you can eat shrimp. Two had the blackened chicken Alfredo. One had the fish sandwich, and the last had the crabs. Everyone enjoyed their meals. The new salt and vinegar fried shrimp were very delicious. We also got 2 appetizers, the cheese sticks, and the crab dip. They need to put more chips on the crab dip platter. The only low point in our experience was our waitress. Very unattentive, we had to ask others to get her to get refills.Parking: Plenty of parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Had lots of handicap spaces.“
“My experience here was nothing short of phenomenal. Our server Madeline was wonderful. The only reason that I'm not going back is because I just don't have that type of money to throw around. For those that have it, I highly recommend this place.“
“Food is quite delicious and the oysters the one's I consumed were fresh. Service is ok. Maybe a bit more friendly. I'm not a regular though. Ambiance is a bit distracting and different music can be a bit loud. I've only been there a few times. However I do continue to go back. Check it out for yourself. I would say it's worth it.“
“Our next DIS Local Spotlight takes us right into the heart of Downtown Akron to DeJuan's Downtown AkronDeJuans is located at 1 W Exchange St Ste 100 in Akron Ohio and is occupying the building that formally housed Bricco. There is also a Valet service available for $7.DeJuan’s was realized in a time of need, a need for a turkey pepperoni pizza. Founder and Owner, De’Juan Kelker was in search of a turkey pepperoni pizza and to his disbelief, local pizza shops did not offer turkey pepperoni. He was stirred to open a restaurant that would serve those with selective palates and diets and offer ALL TURKEY EVERYTHING. The unique concept made way for him to acquire the Downtown property, once frequented by many locals, and continue his personal preference of fine dining.DeJuan's is also making history with becoming Akrons very first black-owned fine-dining restaurant. To say I was excited to try this restaurant was an understatement. Let's get into it.First off the decor, aesthetic and atmosphere are breathtaking. Large glass windows look out onto the city while inside you're surrounded by brick and open industrial ceiling. The space gives vibes of upscale yet accessible without ever being pretentious. The color scheme is black and white which is just elegant enough. The space is also lit very well which I appreciate.The staff is out of this world. DeJuans may just have some of the best service in the country and that's not hyperbole. From greeting us at the front door, to our server Diamond who was world class, the experience was perfect. Our drinks never got less than half empty and Diamond gave excellent recommendations and made sure our experience was one of a kind. There was also a party of maybe 12 people behind us and he gave them the same kind of service. Very impressive.For starters we got the Turkey Chop Bites and the Southern Fried Green Tomatoes.Turkey Chop Bites are pieces of turkey breast that are cut up and then lightly battered and fried. When I tell you my mouth is STILL watering from these things. So insanely juicy and crunchy. They would be good as a Po Boy or in a wrap but they were great by themselves.The Fried Green Tomatoes were also perfectly fried and topped with a shrimp salad that was really tasty. Diamond recommended we try it with hot sauce and that was the right move.For Mains we got the NY Strip and the Turkey Burger.The steak was cooked perfectly and was seasoned so well with salt, pepper and garlic butter. It was so tender and cut like butter. The taste from the grill was also extremely flavorful. There's not much more to say because it was literally perfect.The Turkey Burger was a surprise. Given the size of the patty I expected it to be on the dry side. I was pleasantly surprised it was not dry at all. Beautifully seasoned and complimented by the garlic Aioli and the sweetness of the caramelized onions, this burger was DELICIOUS. I could definitely see myself ordering this again.For dessert I got a slice of cheese cake and figured it would just be a normal slice you get anywhere.Guys... It's not. They take a slice of delicious cheesecake and then they blow-torch the outside so it creates like this crust on the exterior. That process kind of softens the cheesecake and makes it almost melty and creamy. LORD HAVE MERCY. I almost ordered another one. So simple yet so amazing.Folks.. if you haven't noticed by now, I don't know what else to say. DeJuans lives up to the hype. It's worth every penny and more.This is one of those places that I'm truly hoping you make reservations and try as soon as you can. Not only is it important for us to support black owned businesses, but it's important we support GOOD businesses as well. Trust me. I won't steer you wrong.“
“I've been telling my family that this is my favorite restaurant for the last two years. I finally got to take my dad here. He tried the veal scallopini and loved it. He said wow with every bite. I love trying their specials every month. There is a reason why this place is always packed and why I keep returning. It's amazing.“
“Only thing which is only minor was all the food was thrown or put away almost 2hrs before the posted closed time of 11pm. Very understandable if business is slowed, so definitely not a knock as they still did accommodate us and fresh hot plantains as well. Only suggest fixing hours on Google or something on profile to state such as a heads up. Other than that blessings an get the food bussin.“
“Shrimp po boy was outstanding!Normally, I would never drive into Barberton to carry out lunch as it is 15 min each way. The reviews were just so good, could it be that good? Why didn't anyone tell me about this great seafood carryout in Barberton?It is the real deal, I will definitely go back...probably this weekend. I do not know why it is where it is, however, it is worth the trip!“
“Small and cozy with excellent food. The service was excellent. I had the fish fry and my wife had a pear salad with Salmon. The Salmon was cooked to perfection and very tasty. The food was all presented nicely on the plates, especially the dessert. Definitely will go back.“
