T-bone steak and baked potato.
Niccole A.

Visited this restaurant for the first time on Father's Day with my wonderful dad. He chose this place because it's one his favorite restaurants in the town that he lives. It's an older restaurant so the decor was old, dated, and uncomfortable. However the food I have to say was pretty tasty, which was the best part. The service was extremely slow because of the holiday, but they also messed up by not submitting our order into the electronic system correctly so we ended up waiting longer for our food to be prepared after they figured out the error. They discounted the bill by $10 which I felt should have been $20 for as long as we waited. But it is what it is. I would carry order from here again but it would definitely be carry out instead as I didn't enjoy the dine-in experience at all.

Bills choice steak and potatoes
Jack M.

First, i thought these places died out like ponderosa. Which may mean those steakhouses are still out there, who knows? Stepping in here is like going into a Time Machine in a good way: the food is plentiful and reasonably priced. This plate was north of $20 but only because of added bits like the mushroom and onions which completely cover the 8oz steak underneath. The atmosphere is covered with old decor but it's pretty tasteful and fits the theme. Okay, so what about the food? Well you get the salad and rolls with any meal. The salad is drenched in dressing, but it's also not overpowering. It just works, even if i feel like it shouldn't. The bread balances it out as it's soft but also a bit bland, it just helps even out the taste. The food is great, but also oddly sweet (use of rosemary?) which will be a hit or miss for some people. The mushrooms were very strong in that with this in mind. The servers aren't too bad, but more than once our guy left after asking to not reappear again for several minutes. Maybe there was something going on I couldn't see. Also they forgot minor things like butter for the baked potato that was easily fixed. Overall, you're going to leave stuffed and content but maybe speak up to make sure your server hears because it may be a bit loud? Or maybe I'm just a bit quiet.

Portobello sandwich
Molly M.

Went here on a weekday night. My family had gone twice before, but this was my first time. Be warned there isn't much for a vegetarian and nothing for a vegan, but it's a steakhouse so no surprise there. The normal dinners on the back of the menu are served with salad, rolls with honey butter, and a choice of potato. I had a portobello mushroom sandwhich with mushrooms, but stole some salad and bread from my family. Be aware the salad comes with bacon normally. The sandwhich and fries needed some seasoning in my opinion. I ended up taking half home so I'll try playing around with seasoning on the burger. The fries had some seasoning, but not much. My family liked their steak and potatoes. One liked his portobello chicken while another felt his was very chewy and rubbery so he didn't finish it. The decor is kind of like a bar, and there is an actual bar as well. Servoce was good with a friendly server, good times, and lots of parking. Overall it was a nice night out.

I stopped in with family for dinner last Wednesday, 29Mar23 ~1640. There were a few tables seated, but not many. I guess all of the restaurants on Lex-Springmill has taken a chunk of their business over the years. We have not visited for 5-6 years as we have been living in SoCal till this January. Walking in and looking around, all look great! No dirty tables, clean floors...just what you want to see! Betty was our server. A wonderful personality who made our visit 4 stars instead of 3! We ordered adult beverages and their Fried Pickles as a starter. Though I was disappointed that they did not carry Knob Creek, the Fried Pickles more than made up for it! Eight pickle quarters fried in a tempura batter that were absolutely delicious! Highly recommended! We ordered our main courses. Two pork chops, filet mignon, and NY Strip. My Mom and her partner had the pork chops with sweet potatoes. They enjoyed their dishes without a complaint. My NY Strip was more rare than medium-rare but I do not have issue with that. My wife's medium-well filet was a different story. It was actually rarer than my steak. We pointed that out to Betty and off she went with my wife's steak. 17 minutes later my wife's steak came back. One half well done and the other half charred. Not sure if the cook was trying to tell us something or not. My wife was able to eat the well done half and left the rest. When the manager came by to ask us how dinner was, we told her in full detail. I was very happy that she took my wife's meal off the check! Thank you! Overall, it was an okay dinner with Betty and the comp making it better. I just think back to my time, in high school, grilling steaks at a local restaurant. It required a little skill but a high schooler was paid to do it. I may be mistaken l, but the person manning the grill seemed much older. We may be back to give them another shot. If you decide to go, make sure you ask for Betty, she does a great job!

We were passing through Mansfield on our way back to Columbus on a Sunday at noon. I didn't want a…read moretraditional along the Interstate type of restaurant so we drove into downtown Mansfield. Whenever traveling I always use YELP, and it was right on the mark here too. Having grown up in Youngstown, OH, and having lived near New Haven, CT, I have eaten a lot of wonderful Italian Food. We didn't want to wait for a table to open up in the regular restaurant so we decided to eat at the GASTRONOMIA Italian Deli (same kitchen as the back restaurant). My wife is handicapped and some very kind ladies moved to a "high" table so we could sit at a lower table. We ordered from a young lady with the most amazing blue eyes and she brought our food when it was ready. My wife had the Muffuletta Sub and I had the Mighty Meatball Sub. My wife could only eat 1/4 of her sandwich and I could only eat 1/2 of mine. If you have ever lived in one of the two places I mentioned, you know good Italian . This was WONDERFUL Italian. I can't wait to go back there!

Thank you everyone for a beautiful evening!

Okay... I'm still thinking about this meal like it personally changed my life a little bit…read more I had the haddock and WOW. The batter was that perfect golden crisp where every bite had that little crunch, but the fish itself was flaky and melt-in-your-mouth soft. You know when something is fried just right and not heavy or greasy at all? That. And the tartar sauce?? Not your average situation. It had this fresh, almost elevated flavor that made everything even better. I was literally dipping every last bite like I didn't trust the plate not to disappear. But honestly, what made it even more special was the people. Every single staff member was so kind and welcoming, and the chef actually came out to talk with us. I got to thank him personally for making me such an amazing gluten-free meal, which meant a lot because that's not always easy to find. Just one of those places where the food is incredible, but the experience somehow still steals the show. I will 1000% be back.

When the food is so good you forget to take pictures...let's start with the space. It's small but…read more never overcrowded. The owner takes time away from the kitchen to talk his guests like family. In a small town, you can tell the vibe is just that - they all know each other. We had a large group celebrating Mother's Day and between us I think we had 7 different menu items. The rib platter and grouper were among those and a "first come first serve" dish. You can tell they go fast and my husband got the last rib platter. They were juicy and full of that great smoke flavor you want to have. I had the fish and chips, an easy favorite it was cooked perfect with no fry oil leaking off the fish and the taste of cornmeal taking front and center. My teenagers had the grilled chicken sandwich and a cheeseburger. Both exceptional. In our family, we tend to share like it was all one table meal anyways so it was great to see not one dish we had wasn't worth the trip there. It's my Mother-In-Law's favorite local restaurant so to get in (no reservations needed), sit down and have a great meal was awesome. Now; they do have signs about not hanging around too long because of how busy they stay so if you are one that likes to digest their meal for awhile at the restaurant, you may not be able to depending on the crowd. Overall; great place and I am a sucker for those local, small business owner places.

After just being seated our waitress asked us what we wanted to drink. I said we needed to look at the menu but water was a good start. We ordered adult beverages. Mom a margarita, my wife a Rocking Chair, and I their Old Fashioned. Our beverages came out quickly. Mom's Margarita was good. My Old Fashioned was sickly sweet and my wife's Rocking Chair was definitely missing something. I asked for an up Manhattan and we all ordered. Mom a Country Fried Steak, my wife their version of chicken tenders, and I a Grilled Chicken Salad. My up Manhattan came out in a rocks glass missing sweet vermouth. Was there bitters? I sent it back and asked hope a Sam Adam's. The SA was perfect! Our meals came out perfectly from the kitchen and were totally delicious! I can honestly recommend the Grilled Chicken Salad! With the mediocre drinks, it will probably be another 2 years before we stop in.
