| - I have been to the bars in Kent and a few of the restaurants many times, and I have walked past this every time in Kent. I always thought it looked cute, but a friend said it was really fancy or something, and not that that is bad, but usually when up in Kent it is me and all of my husband's friends, not like a date night of anything. I ended up just looking up menus on one of the drives up to Stow / Kent and came across this. The menu, while seeming to have quite the random array of food, intrigued me. it was not fancy, though, but just normal American type food with normal prices.
The restaurant itself is pretty cute, but some of the decor gets a bit out dated and sad because it actually is a pretty place. It was freezing when we went in, so much that no one had their jacket off, and I was sitting there shivering in a dress with no tights. My bad. Still, I was intent on getting warm food.
I ordered the onion crock to start, and it was amazingly good. It was made well, like traditional french onion soup with a beef broth base, and the addition of a burgundy wine really made the flavor great. The cheese was tasty and there was lots of it, and the bread soaked in the juice well. My husband was jealous. I would come here again and ordermlike three bowls it was that good. If I were judging the onion soup alone, five stars. But, that is not the case.
The bread they serve is also quite good. It is crispy oj the eterior, but also soft and crumbly. It had good flavor and I was pleasantly surprised.
Iordered the pierogies - which either were Mrs T's brand or an exact knockoff of them. I cook those up at home all the time and know and love the taste butnInwas hoping for something better. They were cooked okay - some parts were crispy and froed and some were just not. The peppers and onions had been cooked too fast and were more burnt than soft and delicious. I mostly avoided them. The pierogis were good, but I would not order them again.
My husband ordered the philly cheesesteak wrap. It had wayyyy too much cheese ( which is not bad but it was overpowering ). The meat and cheese taste and quality was quite good though, it was enjoyable, but not truly memorable. The fries were like boardwalk fries, but not crispy - they were almost weirdly soft. The flavor of the fries was good so I did enjoy them.
Our service was okay. The waitress forgot things a lot, and she did notmrealy check back. It took while to get the check, which it was cold, so that was hard.
Overal, I would go back, and I would recommend it. It is a great, non-chain option for the Stow / Kemt area.
