“🌹 Rosebuds in Delaware, Ohio – A Hidden Gem That Delighted Me Beyond My Wildest Dreams! 🌹 ⭐️ 9.2/10 If you’re looking for a dining experience that feels like a hug from your grandmother mixed with the elegance of European-style pacing and service, Rosebuds is your next stop. This charming little spot took me by surprise—from the nostalgia of vintage Pfaltzgraff dishes and familiar silverware patterns, to an eclectic menu full of global inspiration. Italian, Greek, American classics, Nashville hot chicken, fresh Maine-style lobster rolls, and a cheeseburger that could hold its own in any high-end bistro. Here’s what we tried: 🍽 Whipped Feta Dip – Creamy, dreamy , and so flavorful. We ran out of veggies before we ran out of dip, but the incredible staff noticed and brought more without us even asking. THAT is service. 🍽 Chicken Parmesan – Fresh pasta and a spicy vodka sauce that was plated beautifully with fresh basil you tear at the table (very European). A few bites of the chicken were tough and should have been trimmed, but overall the dish was still delicious. 🍽 Nashville Hot Chicken – Crispy, zingy, and on par with what you’d find in Tennessee. They even accommodated my cabbage allergy by putting the slaw on the side—love that flexibility! 🍽 Lobster Roll – Small, yes, but packed with flavor. I could have used a bit more butter and lemon, but it still brought me right back to a beach trip in Maine. 🍽 Lemon Pepper Steak – I was skeptical… now I’m a believer. Each bite had us literally oohing and aahing. So well done! 🍽 The Cheeseburger – Melted white cheese in all its ooey-gooey glory. A showstopper. Seriously, this might set a new bar for burgers. 💫 The cocktails? Expertly crafted. Whether you’re kicking off your evening or winding it down, the drink menu delivers. Most importantly—the pacing and service were flawless. It reminded me of dining in Europe, where you’re not rushed, your meal unfolds intentionally, and the experience matters just as much as the food. It’s something I’ve really missed in the local dining scene lately, and Rosebuds got it 100% right. 🚨 One heads up: the restaurant wasn’t open when I stopped by on a Thursday, so it’s best to check ahead. Also, while the food is divine, a couple of dishes felt slightly overpriced for their portion sizes—especially when listed as “big plates.” But that intimacy, that charm, and that level of service? It made it all worth it. We’ve now been three times—and I can honestly say this place is delightful and charming.”

“I went into the Restoration Brew Worx this past week and it was a great experience. I go here often for comfort food and good drinks, maybe once every 2-3 months. And every time, it's wonderful! I have not had a complaint once. Everyone is so friendly and you will see a lot of familiar faces! I love to get wine here, but if I feel like drinking a beer, it's a cider - and they have some amazing ones. Some are seasonal, but it's worth it to stop in and try. As for food, I usually get the nachos or a sub. Which are really good. But this time, I chose to try to big girl grilled cheese, with added bacon. That toasted bread and cheese is so good! You can also add apples if you want, which I didn't, but I regret not doing that, because I'm sure it adds a lot. So I'll have to do that next time! They also have some specials, like this smash burger. The meat was so flavorful and delicious. Also, I think that their fries are my favorite from any local restaurant. They are so crispy and well seasoned. I never eat all my fries but I cleared my plate this time! The atmosphere in here is so joyful and friendly too, I would give it a try if you haven't yet.”

“Excellent food and great service at the Delaware location”

“The staff here were fantastic to work with. They were so kind with accommodating a large group of us after the death of a loved one. The brunch was amazing. So many wines to choose from and the cocktails were delicious!”

“WOW! Festbier just came on Tap and is wonderful. Best in Class. They should enter it into a competition. It would win GOLD!”

“We made this our last stop on our birthday crawl. Cannot recommend this hidden gem enough! The staff were attentive and drinks were on point. Thank you for hosting us!”

“Amato's is one of our go-to places~ Not just for the pizza, but for the yummy veggie platters, and other great food.”

“Stopped in on 3/15. Staff is great, everyone is friendly. The owner personally comes by and checks on you. Overall the food had good flavor, though several items were a little on the dry side. Its an easy fix if they add a little water in the smoker to prevent the food from drying out to much. Its true Texas BBQ and will return.”

“Always a good time a Bout time!”

“Our favorite lewis center hibachi so far. The staff is generally efficient and the chefs are friendly and entertaining. The food is exceptional, especially for the price you pay. We come here once a month.”

“Delicious smash burgers and fries!! They were very fresh, not greasy. Even my picky eater loved his Mac and cheese burger. We’ll be back!”

“Very first time being here. I think the prices are a bit high but my wife and I got the minis as we are trying to watch our calorie intake. Very good cookies for the price. Idk if I'll return though, however she will LOL.”

“Super good coffee!! Also love the interior it’s so cute.”

“Love It! Amazing Drinks, Food and Service!”

“Great food, great atmosphere.”

“My wife and I have been in four times since the change of ownership. Ana is super and very engaging. The food is great and they offer a few authentic Mexican offerings. Their Birria Tacos are the best I have had in Delaware! Highly recommend!”

“Great food great service. And the bourbon selection absolutely amazing. Prices are great and we were told about their Airbnb as well. Thinking of doing that in the spring / summer.”

“We've decided to make Henmick Farm our annual Mother's Day destination! What a beautiful day we had with lots of family there. Ample food trucks, a not-too-big craft show, and great beverages made it a lovely and memorable Mother's Day!”

“The food is excellent!!!!”

“Great service ; sat immediately in a packed house late Sunday morning . Our server Mike was highly attentive. Food was quick and the banana/brittle french toast was the bomb. Good coffee; fun atmosphere. LOVE First Watch !”

“Great customer service!!! Yummy food & drinks. One of our favorite restaurants even if we have to drive out of town. Big or small groups. Family friendly. Make you feel right at home!!! A huge menu selection with a variety of shrimp, fish, chicken, steak, pork, birria, ect. Something for everyone. Go & enjoy yourselves!!! Pictured is Menudo.”

“This is such a cozy coffee shop! The employees are always so nice and helpful and they make the yummiest coffee. They sell all sorts of chocolate and herbal teas.
There are 5-6 tables which are perfect for meeting friends or studying.
This place is great!”

“This is the best Mexican restaurant ever! Everyone will make you feel “en casa”. Food: Delicious Drinks: Amazing People: more than friendly If you want to have a 100% traditional Mexican food in a nice place surrounded by great people, go to La Matraca!”

“First time here ! Staff was so wonderful in explaining the menu and options. Place was very clean and food was delicious ! I ordered an avocado and egg sandwich on a bagel, a mini raspberry cheesecake and a super fruit smoothie. 10/10!”

“I love The Rutherford Cafe! They have delicious food with vegetarian + vegan options. Everything I’ve had is delicious and it’s not just a deli sandwich shop. Their flavors have depth using the perfect balance of quality ingredients!”

“I’m visiting my best friend in Ohio and came in from Los Angeles, so this was my first visit to Bibibop. I have to say, I was genuinely impressed.

Finding a restaurant that offers gluten free, MSG free, peanut free options with clean, natural ingredients isn’t always easy, so that immediately caught my attention. The restaurant was spotless, the staff was friendly and helpful, and they made ordering for a first timer incredibly easy.

The concept reminded me of an Asian style Chipotle, allowing you to customize your bowl exactly the way you want it. What really stood out, though, was the quality of the food. Everything was cooked perfectly, seasoned well, and so flavorful that it really didn’t need any sauce. The ingredients tasted fresh, the portions were generous, and the meal felt both healthy and satisfying.

Honestly, these are the kinds of restaurants we need more of in Los Angeles. Clean ingredients, customizable meals, excellent service, and food that actually tastes great.

Easy 5 stars. I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in Ohio.”

“Very friendly, great food!!”

“Cute little ice cream shop in Delaware. Traffic is awful through this town, by the way, but the flavor combinations here kinda make up for it. Mostly soft serve, some sorbet choices. They had a couple hand dipped flavors as well.
I got a twist of blueberry/lemon sorbet. It was very nice.
Looked like plenty of outdoor seating and plenty of parking for this popular spot.”

“Had to wait a little for a table (10 minutes ), but food was worth it. Got noodles, sesame chicken and a sushi platter to share. Edame for appetizer. Could not eat it all. We were traveling, chose something we could not get at home. Did not dissapoint.”

“Okay listen… I’m not even a “wing person.” Like, at all. But somehow I’ve found myself in a committed relationship with the Nashville Hot wings from here—we’re talking at least once a week kind of hooked. 🔥🍗 They’re crispy, spicy, and somehow life-changing? Basically, if you see me on a random Wednesday, odds are I’m elbows-deep in a basket of them. And don’t even get me started on their Stromboli. We’ve done the “tour de Stromboli” around here and this one takes the crown. Cheesy, loaded, and baked just right—honestly, it ruined all the other Strombolis for me. So yeah, wings for the wing-hater, Stromboli fit for royalty… 10/10 recommend. Just don’t beat me there when I’m picking mine up. 😅”

“The food is fantastic & everyone is so friendly! Love the energy here!”

“tiana is the absolute best server at sandbar,, i'm pretty sure she is new. This is my first time seeing her, but she is the most genuine/respectful bartender I've ever met.”

“Best Crepes EVER!!!! Also raspberry mocha is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥”

“Wonderful menu & service. Appreciate the great staff & family like atmosphere with my daughter working there.”

“Great environment, great food, great people”

“Stopped in for a late lunch and we’re soooo impressed with the gluten free options! We were served shrimp tempura tacos, mac&cheese and sweet potato fries. All were excellent quality and our server was great.”

“Went in for a pick-up tonight and the manager was so kind to help fill my order after we realized I ordered at the wrong location. Thank you so much for the great service!”

“Love LOVE love the Rueben and Nashville Hot Steak specialty pizza!!!! AND the crust is delicious! Great staff!”

“Very clean and the staff is super friendly! I forgot the full name but it was Turtle Mocha I think. Pretty good! They are connected to a bank so that’s the open area on the middle of the two places. I’d come back! They do have a drive thru!”

“Finally tried the Chicken and Dumpling Soup tonight! And it was DELICIOUS!!”

“THE best barbecue and service in central Ohio. I live miles away, but am sure to always grab a carry out to take home after babysitting the grandkids. Couple times, things have been missed in the order, but they make it more than right.”

“Drove an hour to visit a local tattoo shop, walking out the smell of the food drew us to try Joy’s… DEST DECISION EVER! The food was exactly what I look for in Chinese food! It’s hard to find a place around that reminds me of what I ate when I was younger. Needless to say, I looked at my husband 3 bites in and told him any time he wants Chinese food, we can drive the hour there. 10/10 on both food and service. The cashier was so awesome and had an amazing sense of humor! The owner was there and was absolutely wonderful!”

“We really enjoyed the Delaware Destroyer stromboli and the veggie calzone. The server was was very sweet and did a great job even though they were obviously a little short on staff at the moment. We look forward to coming back. For those of you who aren't in the know, the main entrance is at the back of the building. If you enter through the front, you will awkwardly find yourself in the kitchen.”

“This is my daughters favorite place to get ice cream!! We’ve always had a great experience and the staff is amazing! Definitely recommend”

“It doesn't matter if you are in the restaurant or order for delivery, the quality is impeccable! This is our go to for fresh and savory Mexican food. No one can beat it! Wish they had crunchy taco options but that is not a deal breaker when it comes to flavor! Phenomenal food every single time! Thanks Las Miches!”

“Good Atmosphere family friendly”

“Great local pub! Staff is awesome Especially Fawn who likes bagels as much as I do😁”

“Hands down my family’s favorite place to eat when we go out. The crust and bread is to die for and the staff can’t be beat! Moe, Syd, Des, and G make you feel like family and the vibe is always on-point. The menu is smaller, but every single item is perfection and it’s clear they don’t half-ass anything 🤙🏼”

“The people who run this franchise are so kind every. single. time I go in. I recommend them highly. Enjoy! By the way, I was reading earlier reviews, please disregard them, as Pulp here in Sandusky is under new ownership and management. I promise you'll want to leave a positive review if you give them a try!”

“Amazing cupcakes and amazing service”

“The food is great, and so is the service👍”

“The Dragon House is recommend on several of the "best of" sites. Many of the sites write about the delicious food and the large portions for a reasonable price. What impressed us the most was the wonderful waitress. She answered our questions and carried on a conversation throughout our meal. We plan to go back to visit her as much as try sometime else on the menu.”

“A great hole in the wall bar with fabulous food. Has been a staple of Delaware for decades. The owner is fabulous and extremely creative plus she's a strong member of the community and of the school system! (The mayor's best friend).”

“Great value drinks that come with a wonderful experience.”

“Listen. They're Fine. If time is really important to you, order ahead through the app. I've been ordering here once a week minimum for almost a year, and as someone with chronic pain, it's been an absolute godsend. It's been great to have a reliable and pretty affordable (for the disabled tax 😞) source of protein, fresh fruit, and a breakfast wrap when I can't manage to feed myself in the mornings before work. I've only had an issue one time when there happened to be a staffing issue causing them to open late, but it was super easy and quick to go in and have my order made later in the day. The staff have been very attentive.

I won't be working nearby anymore, so I will be visiting less often, but I still recommend them, especially if you're someone like me with trouble accessing healthy food due to time or disability or whatever. Definitely recommend using the app, too; it's easy to order and customize what you need, and the points are worth saving up for free food or smoothies (and I love the free additive for when I can't manage to make coffee at home!). Just wanted to leave a review from another food service worker! ☺️ I appreciate y'all.”

“Came here to Delaware for a chill night with some drinks, found a fun little dive bar! Close to a OWU so watch out for college kids on the weekends, but still not a bad vibe at all.

CHEAP and Yummy drinks! (They pour decent here!) Not too much to do unless they are hosting an event like karaoke. Really just a good spot to chat and drink! They do have a touch-tunes! (Everyone can pay to queue up music!)

Bringing my friend here for her 21st ;)”

“My husband and I used to frequent this subway location before moving to Columbus for 3 years. We moved back in September and stopped in today and the guy, who I assume is the owner, remembered us. He's always been very kind and friendly, the shop is always tidy, and the ingredients fresh. My husband was baffled and amazed he remembered us after so long. Thank you for being a great owner, from the Spicy Italian sub couple!”

“Looks like the first Planet Smoothie in the Columbus metro area, right on US 23 in Delaware. The Açaí bowl and smoothie were absolutely delicious! I’ll definitely be a regular whenever I'm in the area.”

“Fresh. Friendly. Prompt. GENEROUS portions. Spent 100 on food for 8 people and there was enough for 16 people easily!! Amazing flavor! The sauces on the side (lemon and curry) were an excellent addition to my sweet and sour chicken. Thank you SHANG HAI! Your my new chinese food spot!”

“We haven't ordered from here in along while and decided to give it a go since our regular pizza spot hasn't been awesome lately. Both pizzas and meat balls were excellent! everything was hot and loaded with toppings. The delivery was exactly on time and our driver was so nice.”

“It is one of the best fast food Mexican restaurants. They do not have a sit in dining area. They have a drive thru and a pick up window only. A small outdoor dining patio maybe can seat 4-6 people. Outstanding food but can get busy and may take a little longer to get food. Other than that I enjoyed everything I have ordered. Their tacos are very good and their street taco are very good. Chimchangos are large and fulfilling. 👍”

“Yummy Hawaiian pizza style I’ll buy more soon”

“Drive thru visit, lady working was super nice and quick and happy person, whopper meal was made like you see it in the pics, fries were a little over salted for me but in all great job.”

“The service was great and food was super clean tasting. I wish they had some more house specialty flavors, though. Classic American diner options, just kind of plain. Nice bar. I like how they advertise local businesses. It is clearly a part of the community.”

“Very pleasant staff with amazing customer service! Food was fresh and amazing! I would love to have this subway close to home instead of any other. Veggies so fresh and cold. Sauce was even fresh and cold! A very pleasant experience for being at a subway that I've ate before just not at this store. Thanks again!”

“Had a family lunch here and everyone enjoyed the food. Prices were reasonable as well.”

“The morning staff was very friendly, kind, and accommodating! The atmosphere was clean and pleasant. The food was hot and delicious. First time having breakfast at a Wendy's. We'll be back!”

“I just wanted to give y'all a huge shout-out for brightening my day!! I came in just a bit ago and even tho you are very busy the whole staff was cheerful, even singing along to radio with customers and I got my order very, very quickly. Robert recommended an iced chai tea latte with a shot of espresso, which is amazing by the way, and Phoebe complimented me, everyone was so kind and it was overall just a really great experience so thank you all so much 💕 will be visiting more often now for sure you went above and beyond expectations, the staff you have now is amazing they are keepers !!!”

“Nice wait staff, good French onion soup and good shrimp and fish plate. Being a New Englander, gotta say they get the fish -n- chips right.”

“Fast & Freindly Employes !!! Good & Hot Food !!! Awesome Large Selection of Drinks !!!”

“good food and good service”
