Rodolfo B.

Awesome spot in downtown Tiffin. Menu was amazing. Great staff and service. Circuses and aesthetics are amazing in this restaurant. Chef is usually on site too!! Bartender is really cool too!! Lots of parking availability too. Will return next time I'm in Tiffin, OH!

Lunch menu

We came here for lunch and didn't regret it. It's a classy place in a 'recycled factory' brick walls minimalism style. The menu has a good variety to choose from but not overwhelming. Many options look appealing and the menu is very flexible, unexpectedly vegan-friendly. The staff are nice and ready to accommodate a picky eater. The service is quick. The food: trying house trio is a *must*! That pita is like donuts, so good, the romesco sauce will so tingle your buds! My portabello pesto sandwich was very juicy and grilled just the right amount. The plates are definitely enough to fill you and the prices are very modest for a place of that scale. This place is seriously a little hidden jewel of Tiffin. me and my husband were very excited to have found it.

Crab cakes would be worth it, but they were pure mush.

I'm a Seneca country transplant from Columbus area, so I don't have the sense of nostalgia for…read moreplaces like Jolly's that many have around here - which IMO is mediocre at best. So I was pleasantly surprised to accidentally discover Wall Street a few years ago. WOW! I've been many times and every single time it's delicious and, the staff is friendly and professional, and the atmosphere is rustic and warm. My personal favorite is the "War Pig" sandwich, and I hope they never get rid of it. The slaw (what I would call southern style slaw) is just... well, it's delicious. They also have some great beers on tap that rotate seasonally. Whenever I'm asked if I want to go out to eat, I ALWAYS suggest Wall Street first. Highly recommend.

My mother and I stopped by for a quick bite for lunch. We were excited for try it out because we…read morehad never been here before. We ordered a flatbread and it tasted delicious, although it was a little on the colder side. I told my mom the flavor was perfect, so she shouldn't bother saying anything. However, she ended up mentioning it to the waitress. Shortly after the manager or owner came out and offered us a 2nd flatbread to make it right. I was already planning on giving them a 2nd try because I loved the ambiance of the restaurant and the food was great, however, after the amazing customer service, not only will I be back, but I'll be recommending family and friends to try this place! Incredible service and amazing food/menu!

(In that tone that says I hate my life, you, and this job) no apology for my nasty dinner or having to drive back in town to get my food, nothing. I'm just a bother to him. Ug. I'm usually very understanding and nice to people I'm the food industry but this just makes me really mad. You made a bad sub. Apologize and stop acting like I'm fixing you to build a new town hall. Goodness! Will give 2 stars since they will at least remake it. Update: called the store to complain bc the sub was too chewy and I was looking forward to eating my sub. They guy on the other end was less than helpful or concerned and just told me that when he had time he would call his higher up to see if anything was going to be done. That was 15 min ago. Still waiting. I might change my stars if they will remake my sub. I don't even care about a refund or anything, I just want the sub I ordered! Very pissed. My dad made me a philly steak sub. I gave him the order exactly they way they would ask me. My sub looks disgusting! They have prefilled meat containers that COULDNT be filled up all the way bc I can't even find the meat on the sub. My EXTRA veggies I ordered were NOT extra and they were the flat gross pieces that should be thrown out. My toasted sub was stale and the bread very chewy. I will not EVER order a sub from here again unless I'm standing in there to make sure they do it right. This is not the way to do business.
