    Chorizo nachos!
    Judy S.

    We walked into Restoration in the midst of a fun filled trivia night. Found a table in the back. We were waited on by Beth, a lovely server. Even though it was 8:30pm everyone was patient and we had a great dinner and a couple drinks. We didn't feel rushed being a weeknight. The chorizo nachos were amazing and I think enough for at least 4 people! My husband had the patty melt and said it was comparable to the best he's had.

    I was craving brewery food and was in the area so I decided to try this place. The inside was clean and looked like the typical sports bar/brewery atmosphere. We were seated immediately and the servers were very nice. They use QR code menus, and have four of them for food and drinks, which was very frustrating. Their own brewed drinks were very good. We ordered the smash burger and chicken BLT, and the time it took to make them felt like forever. And this was with only two other tables being served. My smash burger wasn't terrible but wasn't great either. The patty was on the dry side and so were the fries, but the flavor wasn't bad. My party enjoyed the chicken sandwich. I wouldn't refuse to come here but I would seek out my other options first.

    Came here today for lunch with my mom for Mother's Day. We were the only ones in there for about 45 minutes then they started to get busy for a lunch crowd. The service was great we sat at the bar. We ordered the pretzel bread for an appetizer and then I ordered the chicken BLT and mom ordered the turkey wrap. We both got chips as our side. Everything was delicious!! The cheese sauce that came with the pretzel... OMG so good. The atmosphere is your typical brewery vibe. Overall it was really good and I will totally be back with the hubby.

    When I first arrived at Restoration Brew Works, I thought it was going to be hard to find a parking spot as North Sandusky Street was packed. Good news... they have a large parking lot behind the building that has plenty of spaces. The restaurant / brewery has a cool look to it. The brick walls and artwork throughout the building add to the cool vibe. I had the Pretzel Bread for an appetizer. This dish has a nice sized piece of house-made pretzel bread, lightly salted, served with RBW ale cheese & house honey mustard. The house honey mustard was soooo good. For my main dish, I had the Tripel Judgement Burger made to order with Lindy beer-breaded deep-fried mac-n- cheese, pepper-jack, candied bacon, onion straws, house- made Carolina slaw & Carolina sauce. The burger was absolutely delicious. The bacon was off the charts good. I loved the food, the service and decor at this really cool place. Since I was here for lunch, I didn't try the beer, but they certainly had a large selection. Maybe next-time!!!

    This was a weird experience... Wifie and I were looking to try a new place for dinner in Delaware so we figured we would try Restoration Brew Worx. We eat out a lot but this was a really experience for us. I got to start out with the good points of our visit. The interior of the restaurant is really cool. The pretzel bread is awesome. The hamburger was good. Wifie had the Italian Grinder with the chips which she liked the chips better than the sandwich. What made the experience weird was the fact that everytime someone opened the door the whole front of the restaurant dropped 30 degrees so you need to were your coat. The first table that We got sat down at was further inside the resturant but a waitress rudely made us move closer to the door - apparently the local high school girls basketball team was coming in to sit there. The service was good until the basketball team arrived and if you were not part of that group you got ignored. Really, not impressed with the experience or the food.

    We keep coming back to this place, it's that good! Once we found out that the band Aeir was going to be playing there on Friday night we knew we had to get there early. This place has great food and beer. I ended up getting the pork sliders with some chips and the new beer that the band debuted called Aeir. I've had the burgers there before and they are delicious! Huge, but very good! By the time the band started to play, this place was packed! Keep in mind that Restoration does not have a lot of room to begin with, but they made it work, both the band and the staff. The staff that night were fantastic and very friendly considering the size of the crowd and how busy they were. We will definitely be back to Restoration again!

    Can't knock a brewery that's open at 11 on a weekday with delicious beer. I got the pretzel bread and it was good. It's more like yummy bread than pretzel bread. Incredible cheese dip and warm bread. So good.

    Love the industrial feel

    Stopped in for lunch today but what brought us in was a burger we saw on yelp. The triple judgement burger..a burger that was topped with Mac and cheese, bacon and slaw. But, we were told it was no longer on the menu.After looking at reviews they were posts from months ago. So we started with the pretzel bread appetizer.. Wow!! The bread tasted nothing like a pretzel but so tasty, comes out nice and warm with a beer cheese to die for and a honey mustard as well.. I would of been happy getting another bread..Lol..we also ordered some chicken chunks with several sauces. The restaurant has an industrial feel with brick walls and exposed pipes. The walls are filled with artwork and crafts made by local artists and are for sale. They have a nice beer selection too but we were only in for lunch had more errands to do or would if tried a flight.

All three had flavor, personality, and just enough mess to prove they don't skimp on the good stuff. (If your taco doesn't drip, did you even taco?) For dessert, I went all in with the Cheesecake Chimi. Imagine cheesecake got invited to a cinnamon-sugar carnival and decided never to leave. Crunchy, sweet, and dangerously addictive. The service was fast, the place was clean, and my only regret is that I didn't order extra napkins up front. Verdict: Come for the tacos, stay for the chimi, and wear a shirt you're not afraid to baptize in salsa.

The place is tiny, the sign is tiny, you drive a little faster, you will be like me, completely missed The parking also a little weird, I believe there 3 parking spots at the front, and 2 more parking spots on the side of the building, that's it, this is not a place you want to dine in, even tho there's couple of small tables inside, more of to go place. Now I'm not sure if they will take your order at the counter, there is a tv screen with the menu on there, and on the right hand corner there is a bar code you can scan on your phone and order it online, that's what I did I ordered the double cheese burger for $11, topping I input all on side. 6 wings for $9 and the small waffle fries for $3.75 Total came out around $24, they add another $1.25 for credit card charges, total over $25 and change Couple minutes later, the guy came out and told me there is no topping included, each topping is additional charge. I'm like wha???? So lettuces, tomatoes, onions, all additional charges on each. Now it become expensive, really expensive The burger not big But it is above average good Wing is typical like other places, nothing special Fries is good Is not like is so good when it comes to burger, this will be the first place that pop up in my head. I probably won't be back, just way over price in my opinion, and charging additional for topping is ridiculous, a good burger should be including lettuce, tomato's and onions. Reasons giving it 4 stars The burger is above average Fries is good Wings is okay Couple guys behind the counter are nice

And the building and restaurant has a cool history as being one of the oldest in the state. My server Ian was cool as was the rest of the staff I encounter. It s nice to see younger people with goals who take pride in where they work. He recommended the grilled sirloin which was good: A simple nice grilled steak with great char marks and seasoning. The potato was okay, and I couldn't tell if it was from a box or they peeled them, but they were tasty and a nice large portion. It just needed butter which they brought me. The Caesar salad was very good, and I am picky about both salads and dressings... I could have even eaten more of that! I am glad they are preserving it and its legacy. I am also glad they are open on Monday when many of their competitors in Delaware are NOT! When I first thought of Bunns, I thought of old people, and this clearly contemporary with an updated menu! They even have Jell-O! I wiIll definitely return and recommend it to anyone who asks me for a good place to eat... Much appreciated.

Backstretch is super casual (given Ohio Wesleyan is nearby - its almost a college/town bar) but great to come in a sit at the bar or one of their booths. It isnt big, maybe 15-20 bar stools and 12 booths and 1-2 tables. This time we picked a booth and a great server (Jacobi) helped us right away. Fun part of backstretch is the staff. Servers are friendly, you can watch the cooks prepare your food, and they have a full bar. Note they dont have many draft beer options, but servers tried hard to get us something we liked. Food here is fresh off the grill and tastes like home cooked food - from their Reuben(which was amazing) to Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich (has kick but so good) - you cant go wrong. This time we added Tots, Mac and Cheese, and the Deviled eggs (most sandwiches are served with a deviled egg - tasty). We also tried Jacobi recommendation of Hencock Tots - wing sauce - cheese and bacon. Should have just made that my meal. Amazing. They dont take reservations but unless there is an event in downtown, you can usually walk in for dinner. This was our third visit in 60 days!
