Got hungry while on shift and wasn't drawn to hospital cafeteria food.. came upon Bellacino's on…read moreYelp & decided to give it a shot. They don't have an option to online order, so after looking at their online menu, I was able to call in for delivery. I initially wanted pizza but was interested in their chicken alfredo and boneless wings. So far, the food is amazing. The food was still nicely heated upon delivery (which took about 45 minutes, shorter than what was relayed to me on the phone). I skipped meals earlier today so I was beyond starving. Boneless wings: hot flavored with blue cheese dipping sauce! There was a good amount of zing in there.. I had my bottle water within close proximity lol The garlic bread that comes with chicken alfredo was yummy! Creamy alfredo sauce and juicy chicken pieces. Definitely satisfied with my order and will be returning to them in the future!

I'm extremely disappointed by how I was treated during my visit today…read more Recently, I discovered that Bellacino's had a rewards program through their app where creating an account gives you a free half grinder. I also discovered that the app provides a referral code, and when someone you refer makes a purchase, you receive another free half grinder reward. There was no indication to me that there was a limit on how many people you could refer, so I referred several friends and family members and used the rewards that were provided to my account. Today, my sibling and I went in to pick up our rewards. My sibling had a free half grinder and a birthday reward, and I had a free half grinder. The owner approached us and immediately told us that we needed to show ID or he wasn't going to give us our food. I was confused and tried to calmly explain that the rewards came from referring friends and family through the restaurant's own app. I even tried to show him the referral information, but he refused to let me explain or show him. Instead, he berated us in front of employees and other customers and accused us of essentially taking advantage of the restaurant and "stealing" free food. At one point he mocked me by saying, "Yeah, you guys are just referring Joe Blow and stealing the food." I repeatedly tried to explain that we weren't stealing anything--we were using rewards that were being generated through the referral system Bellacino's had provided. If the owner believed we were misusing the promotion, he could have simply explained the issue, told us the rewards wouldn't be honored, or explained the rules. I would have been completely willing to have a respectful conversation about it. Instead, we were publicly embarrassed and treated as though we were deliberately doing something dishonest. An employee in the back was also laughing during the interaction, which made the situation even more humiliating. The owner ultimately told us that this was the last time and that if we came back to get something free again, he would call the police. I understand that businesses can change or restrict promotions, and I understand that a business owner has the right to decide how their rewards program is used. What I don't understand is why this couldn't have been handled respectfully and privately. If there was a problem with how the referral program was being used, I would have been perfectly willing to listen and stop using it. There was absolutely no need to berate and mock us in front of customers and employees. I have enjoyed Bellacino's food, which is what makes this experience especially disappointing. I'm leaving this review because customers should be able to use a rewards program in good faith and, if there is an issue with how they're using it, be informed of that issue without being publicly humiliated.

The Met has a policy that your server gets to proudly wear a crown if their name is mentioned in a five star review. Love that policy!! Wear it proudly Ashely!! The Met is a unique building downtown Lima. It was built in the late 1880's and was originally home to the The Metropolitan Bank. It has since been morphed into a restaurant with very attractive original features. The wood floors and plaster ceilings...along with the attractive decor really enhance the dinning experience! The team here is very friendly, professional and welcoming. Ashley was outstanding. She hustled, knew her menu and had great recommendations. Ashley was very attentive and helped us enjoy the evening. I appreciated Liz stopping by and welcoming us. Liz shared lots of history and helped us appreciate the facility. The Met has a large food menu that has something for everyone. They have a large selection of beverages and specialty cocktails. All at reasonable prices. We started with a couple of Mule drinks. One was a designer St. Patrick's Day Mule and their specialty Met Mule. Both were very tasty, cool and refreshing . We started with the Focaccia bread appetizer. It had a lightly golden/chewing top with a soft and moist inside. Liz said that they make the bread fresh three times a day. The bread had a slight olive oil taste with a mild amount of Italian herbs. The soft whipped butter was a nice add. The side salad had lots of fresh spring greens. There was a few tasty tomatoes and lots of stronger tasting onions. The thin Parmesan cheese shreds were an excellent touch. The house ranch dressing was very smooth/light/creamy moderately thin with a mild ranch taste. My wife had the chicken bacon ranch flatbread. The crust was thin and crispy. She really liked the ranch house made sauce and how it accented the meat toppings. I had the Met Meatloaf which had an outstanding meat flavor. The meat was made with Italian sausage which had a slightly spicy kick. It was moist and tender to go along the beefy taste. The smooth red sauce on top was slightly sweet & spicy. It accented the meat nicely. The mashed potatoes were real with lumps, eyes and minute peel pieces. Very smooth and delicious! The grilled asparagus had a slight crisp to go along with the tender stalk. Not much seasoning detected...just a nice olive oil taste. Overall a fantastic dinner experience. We sat street level and watched the pedestrians come & go while enjoying the decor of this unique facility! The menu is large and the food and drinks are outstanding. A special trip to The Met in downtown Lima is worth a try!

We drove in from Columbus to meet friends from Toledo. It's about half-way for both of us…read more Glad we found The Met. I think someone we knew had been here and gave it a high recommended. We arrived at 11:30 and left at 2. They were nice to let us linger. Everything we had was terrific. Soups are made in-house. I'm thinking most all things on the very large menu were probably very good. They seem to care about the details. We also shared some ice cream cookie sundae concoction that was 5*. Metered parking on the street and there was a free lot but it was full. Meters were $2 for two hours. Nice staff and there were no staff shortages! Lilly our server was perfect. If we pass through again we will stop in! The bar area is exquisite.

We stopped here for lunch because of the great ratings. Those high ratings are right, it's worthy!…read more 318 is the name and it's also the address. An interesting place, and they are putting together great food and it has 15 beers on tap! I had the Freight Train grilled chicken sandwich. It came with provolone cheese, a mango habanero chutney, crispy bacon and an Asian chili sauce on a nice brioche bun sporting a 318 brand! Ya baby! I also had fries that were coated and delicious. None of this lasted very long! It was great! As Arnold said, 'I'll be back!'

First, when my partner and I checked the online website, the site was down due to an overdue bill…read more When we walked in, they had 3 televisions with Fox News on celebrating a Trump rally. The people working there have never been served by Trump or the right wing agenda, and no one else appeared to be watching the those tvs. It makes no sense why they would have Fox News up anywhere in their establishment. Our server was nice, yet even though the bar was less than 25% capacity, it took 15 minutes to get an overpriced Old Fashioned which was not made correctly. It was far too sweet, had some sort of 7up-like soda in it, and we couldn't even taste any rye bourbon in them. There was too much ice in the glass and the cherries were the cheapest of the cheap. None of the other drinks available looked enticing, especially after that drink. The fried pickles were delicious and I also ordered a PBJ burger. The burger was well done even though I asked for medium rare. The overall taste was very yummy only because there was so much jelly and oily peanut butter to assist the dry overdone burger. The sidewinders were well flavored but could have been double fried to be slightly crispier. Partner also ordered a burger and typically prefers medium well done. Even they thought their burger was too overdone and dry. The floors were sticky and the place smelled like pinesol which was distracting from the food. Even though it smelled like cleaning products, the place felt dirty and sticky, not somewhere I would like to eat. I appreciate the divey, live music in the corner sports bar vibe, but the management and organization seemed off here, like a weird awkward silence. I wouldn't come back unless they make their drink game more professional, there was a very good special on beers, or a particular band I would enjoy seeing here.
