Brought up the fries and said they could bring out to go, but no apology or offer to take off the bill. Food was also sub par. Dry chicken, cheese on quesadilla tasted like American cheese. It wasn't even busy, which could explain a little of the service issues. Gross. Would give a zero star if possible.

I don't care about sports, and I never studied the great Toledo war. As far as I can tell, we got the UP so even if Ohio won, I figure we still came out ahead? Like I said, I never took a midwest social studies course. In all seriousness, I don't know what is more responsible for bringing me back to Westside Bowl over and over again. It's a pretty close tie between the Brier Hill Pizza and the pinball. Pinball and pizza are two of my favorite things. Plus I love peppers and frankly I'm a big old fan of the Basilicata region in Italy, which incidentally is reported to be the cultural underpinning of Brier Hill Pizza. But that's neither here nor there. I also am a big fan of interesting regional beers. Westside Bowl has those covered, but I'm usually stopping in on a roadtrip and now that I'm old, one beer makes me really really sleepy. So sadly, I usually just look with wistful eyes at the beer list. Fortunately I can console myself with pinball. There's a good selection of machines, and many of them play quite well. The staff has always been lovely. I appreciate the queer friendly signage visible from the very large parking lot. The stage for shows looks freaking awesome. And there is real honest to goodness bowling. Not this gussied up let's-put-big-ass-tv-screens-over-the-lanes-for-the-add-set bowling. I don't know who put all of these things together into one old building, but whoever they are, they should be awarded a Nobel prize. It's flipping genius. The locals of Youngstown are fortunate to have a place like this. I hope the appreciate it and understand just how lucky they are. If only the kitchen staff could work on making a dynamite sauerkraut ball, I woudln't be tempted to skip Youngstown for an occasional dalliance to Akron. And for that matter, perhaps they might consider dialing in a cold cheese pizza, to keep me from visits to the Ohio valley.

Westside Bowl on Mahoning ave in Youngstown is a great spot for the pizza, the appetizers, the…read moredraft beers and the interior of the joint itself. It's a full unreserved recommend highly and take Mom and Pop for lunch too! Seriously, Westside Bowl DOES have great pizza. They got a LOT of off street safe free parking. The people who work there are friendly AND fun to look at. (not being mean, I just like green hair and a smile ) There are regularly scheduled bands. Some of which do cost $20+ to see, but it's a good concert space downstairs with a good vibe. It's not like you're stuffed into "JJ's Cave" or something. Remember Nyanhinghi? Nitabinghi? That bar that had music up on Steel street? Same good vibe. And that's really the point I'm trying to make. The Westside Bowl is an exemplar (ha!) of what could happen when good, ON SITE management means to a venue. Hit this place up for some cool and mellow times, and enjoy your afternoon. Your night. Your health. This place will make you younger, I #### you not

We were so very happy to have made the decision to land here. The food was amazing, From the stuffed cabbage to egg rolls. All wonderfully flavored and served very nicely. Speaking of serving, the staff was a bit stressed, lots of people and only a couple of them... but they kept up and even took time to 'chat' with some out-of-town strangers. It was a fun place, a good old Cheers style bar, I felt everyone else in the place knew each other. But, they included and welcomed us. I would go back tomorrow, if I lived a little closer!

Rip's Cafe is a bar in Struthers area well known for its Slovak/Polish food especially the "Hunky…read morePlatter." I very randomly discovered this bar while in the area (Youngstown). I was really craving Eastern European food that tastes like home. All of the Eastern European restaurants were closed on Sunday except Rip's. I wasn't expecting much to be honest and really liked my time here. AMBIANCE: Basic dive bar. Humble surroundings. Plenty of TV's at the bar. Dim space. While this ambiance is not usually my cup of tea, I felt very comfortable here. Regulars were very nice and welcoming. FOOD/DRINKS: I ordered a glass of Moscato ($4). The wine brand was Barefoot. I don't drink this tier of wine to be honest. But I understand that dive bars don't stock upscale wine. A glass of wine was good. I ordered a few appetizers - Pirohy (6 pierogis, $6.99), one stuffed cabbage ($8.99), and 2 haluski ($13.98). The food was excellent for a dive bar and in general. I am a very tough critic of the food from my part of the world - Eastern Europe. This food was delicious and well done. It didn't taste frozen, but rather homemade. Everything was well salted and had enough butter. I was especially impressed with haluski and ordered multiple orders. I felt like for appetizers the portions were generous. The bartender mentioned that Hunky Platter ($16.99) is a popular choice. It comes with one stuffed cabbage, three pirohy, and a side of halusky. Essentially, I ordered the same thing but in larger quantity. SERVICE: The service was super friendly considering this is a dive. The bartender ensured I was happy, suggested different dishes, and asked personal questions. It was very pleasant interaction. I'm not a dive gal, but I'll absolutely be returning. The food is absolutely delicious. It's like a hidden gem for quality dinner. I can't wait to experience other menu items next time. Go experience Hunky Platter, you'll love it!
