The pickles were soggy and unseasoned, the kids chicken chunks ordered for the toddler at the table were dry, hard, and overcooked. The menus were filthy, tables unbussed. It was a no-go for us.

Service was just ok. They do have food trucks time to time. None when we were there. I can just imagine how cold it is in here in fall/winter with warehouse type spot atmosphere.

I've only been to the Downtown Perrysburg location but have been impressed every time. They have a good variety of beers on tap that they make including some rotating seasonal selections. Not a beer drinker? They also have a full bar with specialty cocktails, wine, and NA options. I've stopped in a couple of times for a casual drink at the bar or to enjoy on their amazing summer patio area. They often have events like live music to enjoy so keep an eye out! This visit, I stopped in for brunch with friends. Their menu is smaller but has good variety and is priced well. I got the Biscuits & Gravy which had a handful of biscuits sauced in their house made gravy and topped with fluffy eggs. Delicious! My friend got the Chicken Salad Sliders which came with 3 pretzel bun sliders filled with yummy egg salad and a side option. He chose their chips which were tasty. My husband got the Chicken & Waffles. This was the most expensive but smallest portion. The sandwich itself was good and comes with a side but side options aren't listed on the menu. The entree was served on a large plate and simply looked small in size. Flavors were good but it left room for more food. Overall, this is a great, easy food and drink spot in Perrysburg. They offer their beers on tap but also some are canned for purchase in the to-go fridge. Stop out in the summer to enjoy their prime season and get a DORA cup to enjoy while walking around Downtown Perrysburg!

The Big Fat Boss Baby Mocha is a new fave for me - imperial stout aged in smoked bourbon & Irish whiskey barrels = yum! Our dinner choices: Cobb Salad with Grilled Salmon and I asked our bartender to surprise me with a selection. I had the IT5 Burger with Bacon = yum!

Maumee Bay Brewing Company / Oliver House We arrived on…read moreSaturday for lunch on our way into town for a visit. This was always one of my favorite spots and I appreciate the variety of establishments available and wanted to include this on my small tour of Toledo. I positioned our stop at the top of the list after a quick tour of downtown and before a visit to the Libbey Glass Outlet and the Toledo Museum of Art. The Oliver House is a historical building with a view of the Maumee River in downtown Toledo. When commissioned by Major William Oliver, renowned architect Isaiah Rogers designed a first class modern hotel and located the building in the section of downtown referred to as the "Middlegrounds". The address is 27 Broadway St., Toledo, Ohio and it is the last remaining hotel standing designed by the architect. Venues: https://mbaybrew.com/ Brew Pub (2nd floor) Rockwell's (1st floor, River side of the building - steakhouse, open for dinner) The Cafe (1st floor) Mutz Sports Bar (1st floor) + Private Events + Museum - Bakery (this was my old favorite lunch spot back in the day) We planned to visit either the Brew Pub or The Cafe for lunch - the menu is very similar, but I had wanted to get a river view for my guest so I leaned toward the Maumee Bay Brewing Company "Brew Pub". Our lunch: combo 1/2 salad with quiche and 1/2 salad with chicken salad sandwich. $11.95 for 2- choice combo. Parking: ample - street parking, parking immediately around the building and a parking lot across the street Service: very good, friendly, efficient, attentive Menu: I will always miss the mussels; but there are still some favorites available on the menu.

We only had 30 guests for our wedding and the staff made sure everyone was taken care of. Food was delicious, hot, and all had unique flavors. Which doesn't always happen group dining options. The Oliver House is where I got to marry the love of my life, and it will always hold a special place in our hearts. Will be dining here for many years to come.

Today they were offering a Bloody Mary Bar where one picks their preferred vodka and can go up to add whatever mix and topping you want. Their menu has a variety of sandwiches, burgers, salads, hotdogs, and pizza. They have monthly beer specials so my friends ordered a Pacifico for $3.75 and Miller High Life for $1.75. I got a John Daly cocktail which was just under $5. Steal! For food, I got the Brent's Best Burger in the junior size. The regular fries were not my favorite but I loved the burger flavor. Our group also got the DeCarlo Sandwich and a Patty Melt. Both were thoroughly enjoyed! Our server, Danielle, was very kind and gave us some good suggestions on what to eat. She was very patient with me while exploring the menu. Overall, this was a great experience where items were loved or just ok. I did love the casual atmosphere and special deals they offered.

They serve their full menu until 10pm (!) with even later hours on the weekend. Of course, the pizza is great. It's owned by the "Marco's Pizza Family." As you may have guessed, this is an Italian restaurant. Although this is NOT the best Italian fare in town, it is very good. I will also say that it's a bit expensive for what you get. The service last night, from Liz, was fantastic. The atmosphere is just what you'd expect from in this part of town...exposed brick, comfy seats, high ceilings, etc. It's clean and modern, if not a little cliche. Still, it's very comfortable. Not only does he have the fastest growing pizza chain in the world, but (Italian immigrant) Pasquale "Pat" Giammarco also has a great spot in the heart of downtown Toledo. We'll be back.

Dinner selection was between my favorite pizzeria or adventuring into something new. I chose…read moresomething new but kind of regretted it. Honestly, I would have rather waited the 15 minutes the waitress said it would take for fresh pizza than been given something that seemed like it had been sitting around for a while and was just "called" a Margherita because it looked similar. I expected a Margherita pizza with sliced tomatoes and plenty of basil, but what I got was more like a plain cheese pizza with just two chopped pieces of basil on top. The slices were folded in the container and looked smaller than they actually were. The staff didn't seem very enthusiastic when I came in to pick up my order, so I didn't feel welcomed as a new patron. The restaurant has a casual, seat-yourself bar-style vibe, which is fine if that's your style, but it didn't add much to the overall experience for me. The Pizza Passport is a great opportunity for pizza lovers to explore new restaurants or pizzerias in town. For me, I'm used to sticking with my usual spot, so it was nice to try something different and broaden my horizons, but I'm unsure if I will be returning. Overall, maybe it was just an off day for them.

Tonight was not one of those nights. First no hostess so waited several minutes until we went into the kitchen to tell someone we were here.

We ordered bone in rib eye rare. Pittsburgh. Well done and tough. Sent it back and as expected-came back raw. Took it home to the dogs. A manager never came over to apologize or even acknowledge there was a problem. Do not fool yourself that this is a high end steak house. Go to Texas Roadhouse for a better meal. They should be embarrassed. You could be better.
