I stopped in for lunch and was immediately greeted by a super friendly woman at the front counter…read morewho offered some great recommendations since it was my first visit. I was excited to see a great selection of soups, sandwiches, salads, and pitas on the menu. I ended up ordering the falafel pita and a small matzo ball soup, and I was pleasantly surprised to see they carried Poppi, the gut-friendly soda, which is always a plus. And I treated myself to a little baklava as well. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. The falafel was flavorful, the pita was soft and warm, and the soup was comforting and well-seasoned. Overall, a great spot with friendly service and tasty food.

Upon arrival, I seated myself and a waitress visited me with a menu and took my drink request. I went with a Coke. I've been on a gyro kick lately, so I requested a gyro wrap, which comes with potatoe chips. A few minutes later, my gyro was delivered. It had red onions, tatziki, and traditional gyro meat. It was served hot and it was delicious. I would definitely request that wrap again and if I'm in the area again, I'll do just that. Good stuff!

25 years of waiting and just disappointment…read more Nice warm day out, and me and my mom decided to go get something to eat for lunch. We hadn't been here before, but she has been waiting 25 years to come here. She has lived in Akron for all her life, and Kenmore for 10 of those. The bread was soggy, the ingredients were not quality whatsoever, it even looks like they cooked the sandwich with the lettuce on it. The pickles, the only thing free with this expensive meal, were soggy. We paid $41 for this meal for just utter disappointment. Not only that, but these are MAGA Trumpers, displayed everywhere, which is embarrassing in a town with such diversity as Kenmore has. Most of your customers are black, so this is just insulting.

Sooooo...lived up to the hype. Hard to get to, nothing is really near it. It was great. I got the…read moreNew York Pastrami or something like that. Price seemed in-line with other places, staff was particularly nice. People mentioned MAGA stuff (huge RED flag for me) and I DID see a Trump/Vance sticker (wtf?) but I also saw a Biden/Harris sticker. So if you are reading this Ms. Primo...how about: no stickers? I don't want to ruin my appetite thinking about Trump. That being said, the sandwich was the best sandwich I have eaten in Ohio. I will return and get some weird thing when I go back. Building was old a full of knick-knacks. They seemed to sell retail beer, but the selection wasn't amazing but they had some interesting stuff.

I moved to Cleveland from Metro Detroit where there is a plethora of amazing Vietnamese restaurants…read moreand I've yet to find a good one here. I went to Kent for an adventure, found Hue Banh Mi & Pho on Yelp! so I gave it a go. When I walked through the door I knew the food was going to be good because it smelled like I was in the kitchen hovering over fresh cut veg, fish sauce and lime. Yum. I got two pork banh mi and summer rolls. I ate half a sandwich and one roll at a nearby park and had the other half for dinner when I got home. The bread was perfect--crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The veg was crisp and refreshing and the pork delicious, tender and moist. The summer roll was good, peanut sauce was perfect and I got a side of nước chấm so I could double dip. I had the second sandwich for breakfast.* I happily saw they put mayo on the banh mi so I asked for none and they made it without. Yay or otherwise yuk. I will make a special 55 minute trip to eat here again. *I go between Detroit and Cleveland on the regular so I usually get a banh mi for the road and one for the next day. Hear me out--deconstruct the sandwich and wrap the veg in a moist paper towel and seal in a glass jar. Store the bread in the paper bag it came in and put the meat away as you normally would. The next day wet the paper bag and put the bread in the oven for about 5 mins. Reheat the meat on the stove top, reassemble and enjoy.

The carrots and jalapenos were fresh. The baguette was both slightly crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. This would be a solid 4 in NYC. In Kent, OH... it's a well deserved 5 stars.

Decor is eclectic and menus were printed on a single sheet of white paper. Our server was sweet but service was a bit slow, and the market fish of the day was an appetizer which I thought was strange. I ended up going with the crab cake appetizer as my meal and splitting the bread service. Bread was good but two of the three breads that came out were sweet (with dried fruit inside) and I wish that would have been stated somewhere in advance. The crab cakes however were delicious - definitely the standout. A few of the fish dishes other diners around us ordered looked tasty as well. All in all a decent experience and I would probably go back, but nothing mind blowing.

I can honestly say The Blue Door has earned a place among the very best meals I've ever had. What amazed me most wasn't just that every dish was delicious--it was that every single plate had its own identity. Nothing tasted repetitive or safe. Each course was thoughtfully composed with bold flavors, beautiful presentation, and combinations I never would have imagined working together... yet they absolutely did. Beyond the food, every plate looked like a work of art. You could tell the kitchen artists take immense pride in presentation without sacrificing flavor. The service was warm, knowledgeable, and perfectly paced. We never felt rushed, and every recommendation was spot on. If someone asked me where to experience one of the best dining experiences in Ohio, I wouldn't hesitate for a second. I'd tell them to drive to The Blue Door in Cuyahoga Falls. This wasn't just dinner. It was an experience.

I was really back and forth on whether to give this place four or five stars. Some of the food was…read moregreat. The chicken and sauce part of the chicken and waffles were amazing the corn beef hash dish was great. The waffles lacked real flavor and tasted odd. The coffee was great. Service was awesome but slow (took us 40 minutes to get our food). The restaurant is really cute looking and the pastry's look amazing but we only had the croissant which was great. The food was pretty expensive. We spent 70 bucks as a party of two. They definitely had large portions which is nice for the price however after moving here from Columbus, we've just had better for less for brunch/breakfast so that's why I needed to knock off a star. Still a good place but now where that we'd go to regularly because of the wait times and the price not making it feasible.

The wait was over the 45 minutes they quoted us, and the food came out lukewarm/cold when it did. The food was lacking flavor, and both our sandwiches were very dry.

The place was clean as well, but we're hoping for some improvements before going back.

The décor, but above all the quality of the food and the kindness of the chef and the entire staff behind the counter. When I told the chef I was from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, he gave me (free) a large piece of carrot cake--loaded with frosting--on the house. Not only was my sandwich absolutely delicious, but the dessert lasted me for three lunch--it was so huge and impeccably fresh. So, thank you very much. I will certainly come back to see you if I'm ever in Akron again, but I can assure you I'll be an ambassador for you; I've already told plenty of friends in Montreal about it. Thanks a lot, and I wish u to continue a Long Successfull ! God bless u and bless America
