    Shrimp and grits
    helen g.

    We were greeted at the door and seated in a nice booth after the hostess asked if it was where we wanted to sit. Ordered a raspberry lemon drop it was very good, kids meal menu was a good variety, kids got soft drinks with their meal. I got shrimp and grits and it came with a good mixed greens salad I got right away, my daughter got a salad with her chicken and bow tie pasta too. The shrimp and grits was seasoned well had lots of decent sized shrimp I had to cut up to eat and was very cheesy. My daughter's pasta dish was big more than she could eat , I tried it sauce was well seasoned, lots of chicken. Kids hamburger was big we had to cut it in half and he had Mac n cheese I tasted very cheesy and good too. Prices weren't bad , food was good so it was definitely worth it. Definitely would eat there again

    Had lunch here with friends. Nice, clean open space with lots of room. Large bar area. The bartender is good and mixes beverages well. The food is also good, and the menu has many creative options to select from. On this trip, I had the cheeseburger with fries. It was prepared medium, just the way I wanted. One of my friends had the shrimp salad and the other chose the Turkey Pesto Melt, which they both enjoyed.

    Incredible food, service and ambiance. This place seriously has it all and I don't say that lightly. I have been a regular for the past year because their food is fresh and I love it but it really went to 5 stars in my book after I decided to host my engagement party there. Gina and her team were so attentive to our guest. I did not lift a finger the entire time. The hardest part of planning the event was deciding what food to order and Gina even helped with that. I could not recommend this place enough!

    Great food; came back a year later because it was so good! Had chicken and shrimp grilled with cheesy grits, and a side salad. The dish is called West 34; asked for it grilled.

    For a daytime person, beautiful hot summer day & How do you say... Express, Palette delicacy and a backup tea‍ to top off a wonderful afternoon or excuse me also, a great start to my evening

    We stopped in on a Monday and downtown was quiet, but the food here was awesome. The signature West 34 chicken and grits and shrimp...fried chicken breast is the thing shrimp and grits never knew it needed! The veggies from the Yo appetizer were needed. Also, don't skip the pepper relish in the Yo! The service was also really good. Our server checked often to make sure we had all we needed. We definitely will be back when we're in Youngstown.

    Homemade goodness with big city feels! This place has excellent service, food, and ambiance. The ingredients were all top quality, and the menu is eclectic enough to appease the easy eater or the foodie connoisseur with everything from apps, to salads, to sandwiches, to full meat entrees and pastas.

    It was my first time coming back to Youngstown after 7 years and my friend suggested we go here. I enjoyed the service and the food! Not to mention the inside looks so nice. I love seeing more restaurants open up downtown. I hope you guys are here to stay!

    Decided to ignore the reviews and check out this brunch place!…read more Overall it was a good experience, not great but also not horrible! The main thing to mention is the wait times, they are not lying when they say it's gonna take forever to eat here. However, we were fairly warned when being sat and also when we ordered food that the wait times may be longer. That is a huge plus!!! We knew what to expect and weren't upset in the slightest. We ended up being there for a little over two hours including seating us, which was long indeed but we all were enjoying ourselves and our drinks. The food we ordered ended up being absolutely delicious!! Everyone loved everything they ordered. The drink selections were so fun and also all very delicious. They have a very large parking lot behind the building and next to it, which is a huge plus for being in Youngstown.

Customer service and the drinks were pretty decent and the food was good. A few takeaways - I highly recommend the staff wear their hair in a pulled back ponytail or wear a hair net. We had hair on our mimosa which was utterly disgusting. The staff should either have a designated entrance (preferably a back door) or if they must come through the front door and in the mix of customers, they should be dressed appropriately to start work. I believe this establishment has potential but business acumen practice should start with the owner leading by example for their employees. From the outside looking in, leadership is truly lacking.

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.

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

I ended up taking my meal to-go and ate it later -- absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, the bartender completely changed the experience for me. She was a redhead working the bar around 7:30 PM, and from the moment I sat down, she was noticeably unwelcoming. I was literally the only person sitting at the bar, yet she barely checked on me, offered no conversation, and honestly came across with an attitude the entire time. As someone who has worked in the bartending industry myself and who travels often visiting different restaurants and bars, hospitality matters. A bartender sets the tone for the entire experience, especially for solo guests. Sitting alone at a bar can already feel awkward enough, and a warm, welcoming attitude goes a long way. I still tipped her generously despite the experience, because that's just who I am, but management should really pay attention to how guests are being treated behind the bar. It's disappointing because I truly loved the place itself and wanted to give it a full 5 stars. With better customer interaction from the bartender, this place would easily deserve it. The day I was there tonight, which was May 18th 2026. I arrived about 730 and left about 845.
