| - Let's break this down:
1.) Service - You will get good service from Laconi's. Wait staff is great and friendly. Kitchen staff is competent and they get food out in a reasonable amount of time.
2.) Atmosphere - Good atmosphere, a little too dark though. On a busy night, like Friday or Saturday, expect a wait and the bar area gets very crowded. Lots of regulars who like to walk around and mingle with each other. When there is a big game on, it gets crowded also. So go early to get a good table before it gets to crowded
3.) Food - NOT what it used to be. Laconi's has a very rich history in Cuyahoga Falls. It was originally owned by Sam Laconi and all the food was authentic and delicious. When he retired, he sold the restaurant to new owners and since they took over the food is fair but not nearly as good as it used to be. The pizza is not the same any more, because a woman who used to make the pizzas there was from Sicily and retired, her name was Pizza Mary and from what I hear told, she was incredible. Regardless, the food is good, but not excellent. DO NOT order a side salad, you will be disappointed. The bread is pretty good. The soup is good and homemade. Some of the pasta dishes are very good. The alfredo sauce is very tasty. The cannolis are good as is the tiramasu.
4.) Pricing - I think the food is way overpriced. You get a decent amount of food but not worth what they charge in my opinion. Pizza is very expensive as well.
5.) Exterior Appearance - From the outside, the restaurant is not much to look at. The parking lot is a little run down. The sign outside has letters missing and misspelled. Not a great first impression.
If you are in the area, not a bad place to stop for lunch or dinner. But again, not my first choice.
