Our family was in Ashland to attend a football game at the college. A friend highly recommended Shanks as THE place to eat. It was nothing short of awesome. Great burgers, wings, salads, and chicken tenders. I highly recommend you checking this great eatery located at Ashland Golf Club.

The restaurant pickings are slim at this exit from I-71. Perkins is not one of my favorite chains, but nothing else seemed more promising, so we tried this one. Our server made all the difference. She was genuine, friendly, helpful. We each ordered salads, one with chicken and Italian dressing, the other a Southwest, sort of Mexican creation. Both were altogether edible. The decor could use freshening. We would probably risk this place again if we needed to make a pit stop at this point along I-71.

Place was very busy. It was clean and the food was good, nothing was great, but nothing was bad either. Our waitress was ok, ran out of coffee a time or two and she was a little slow, but she did get us everything we needed. Have had much better crepes, but that was all they offered. Mush was interesting, not awe inspiring either.

Small dining room, figure most do the carry out, but the staff was friendly and the pizza was good. The pizza never disappoints, and some of the family have it as their #1 pizza in the region. Definitely better than average pizza and calzones, and both had good flavor.If you are going for atmosphere, this may not be your kind of place, if you are going for good pizza and don't care about the surroundings, Dor Lo is the place, that, or do carry out and enjoy the pizza wherever you want! Website still shows menu with buffet.

We enjoyed our visit to Ashland...quaint town and friendly people. We shopped in a few thrift stores and chose the brewery for lunch. We had burgers and soft drinks. Food was delicious. Funny the one thing that sticks in our mind is the incorrect bill: adding an additional drink and being charged .50 for extra mayo. Service was slow.

We stopped and ordered food to go on our way to visit family in Ashland. We live out of town and thought we would try something local. The dining area is not very inviting from what we saw. The girl working the cash register was friendly. The portions are not very big. The meat was a little on the dry side. Our biggest complaint though, is upon getting home we discovered they left out one of our brisket meals and close early on Sundays. I called and left a message to please call me the next day, explaining what had happened. They never returned my calls or reimbursed us for their mistake.Hello Julia In response to your complaint. we as the owners weren't here that day as it was on a Sunday We did get your voice message on the phone and I had he girl in charge that day call you back to talk to you and she got your voicemail and left a message we were sorry to have forgotten the brisket and would give you free replacement the next time as once we close the credit card machine for the day I can't return refunds without the card. She said she called again but it went to voicemail again and she just hung up. I'm sorry you were dissatisfied with the food and dining area. I would be happy to send you a refund in the mail if you sent your address. I still have your receipt from that day which is dated May 12 so a month has went by. Our phone at the store is 419-903-0930. Thanks you and sorry for your unsatisfactory experience.

Located next to a Park in Ashland, this restaurant may not look like much from the outside but I would absolutely recommend it. Inside is large and has diner counter style dining, booths, and tables for groups. The staff we're all very friendly with great customer service. Our server was excellent and very attentive, above and beyond really. They have fresh pies they make from scratch for dessert. All of the food is made fresh using whole ingredients. You can definitely taste the difference in the quality of their food. I was actually really impressed. And the prices are very reasonable. Last, I do want to note that it was VERY CLEAN! Sometimes these hidden gem, mom & pop places are questionable, not here. I would recommend this place for sure it was excellent, checks all the boxes.Thank you Patty for the GREAT review. We have been in business in Ashland for over 68 years and is a family ran business for the whole time. As owners we tell everybody that the staff we have is top notch compared to any place around Ashland. My grandfather told me many years ago "If your bathrooms are clean everyone kitchen is clean" and we live by that and thank you for noticing that because we pride ourselves on that!!! we have been making fresh baked pies for the 68 years in house and everyone that has one is hooked. I have 14 employees with a combined 350 years of service here!! So thank you again for the awesome review and hope to see you very soon.Rob Stoops President

Bella Bleu's is WORTH finding! We are located just minutes away from Route 71, halfway between Cleveland and Columbus, in Ashland, OH. Our rustic casual Lakeside dining with full bar amenities, provides a relaxing dining experience, inside or out. Bella's

Some friends told us about this place and said it was soooooo good. We found out different on Father's day 2019. Mind you, we were being charged $19.95 for the buffet minus any beverage. We had a 1:30 reservation and they did not seat us until 2:05. Our waitress took our drink orders [6 waters with lemon out of 11]. It took 20 minutes just to get the waters [I timed it knowing this waitress was even having trouble taking a simple drink order.] NO lemons!! I asked again. 10 more minutes until the lemons arrived and then just 4 small slices. The selection of food wasn't too bad but all the food was COLD. This place was noted for its carrot cake and sticky cinammon buns. Nowhere to be found. We asked the waitress and she said, "Oh, those were gone with the 10:00 reservation." HOW RIDICULOUS!! So all the people after the 10:00 reservations were just out of luck. POOR planning. I have NEVER had a waitress that was this inattentive. She would disappear for 20 minutes at a time and we could not find her. Very disappointed and I will not ever return to this establishment. Oh, something else, they ran out of dessert. They must have run to the store and put out cheap STORE bought cookies. So sad.We also noticed when we arrived that they had 3 parties scheduled at 1:30. Parties of 10, 11 and 12 people. That is 33 people at once. Very obvious they were not prepared for this many people at once. Heard so many people complaining about not having the carrot cake and the sticky buns so it wasn't just us. We really think that we should have been offered a discount for so many items that were missing from the buffett.
