    I booked this restaurant for my daughters 17th birthday because I wanted something special. Wow did they come through! We had a reservation at 4:30 and when we check into our hotel room which was a block away we discovered her birthday dress was still hanging up at home an hour away. She forgot it since it wasn’t in her overnight bag. Long story short we got the dress but had called the restaurant to let them know we would be almost an hour late would we still be able to come. The gentleman who answered the phone said absolutely and her birthday won’t be spoiled on our end! Relief in that moment one act of kindness gave. We get there at 5:20 to a beautiful table, incredible service, and outstanding food. From me being able to sample a couple of the white wines and settling on a delicious one from France. To our steak being cooked perfectly medium rare and that peppercorn sauce amazing. The lobster was delicious, picked two sides which my daughter loves a good gourmet Mac and cheese this one was perfect! They even give a complimentary dessert and candle. Never did we have an empty water glass and the continuous staff was either wishing her happy birthday or asking if we needed anything. If you want exceptional service, amazing food and a great experience please don’t skip this one! They even made sure we had plenty of time to get to the nutcracker!

    My two granddaughters and I had a very good experience at spaghetti warehouse. We were on our way to see the Nutcracker and we wanted to try the spaghetti warehouse. Food was delicious. Everything was a OK. Towards the end of the evening though it did get pretty loud. But the open ceilings I can understand there would be a lot of noise. But we had a wonderful time.

    The hostess and waiter were very nice and accommodating. Our meal was delicious! I only rated it a 4 because the decor is a little outdated and there were no flowers or table centerpieces anywhere. 5 star restaurants usually have that. But this is in the hotel and convenience and good food is a priority. Therefore,the excellent staff and food makes it a good choice even for non-hotel guests, especially when attending events at the Ohio Theater.
