Diamond Grille

Went for a family birthday celebration. Worst experience ever in a restaurant. How this place is so popular is a mystery. Shared a fish dinner with my spouse, the plates were served with 3 pieces of fish on them, and nothing else. Baked potatoes were on small saucers, no toppings given. Soda was served in cans, no glasses. Torn dirty carpet, filthy walls, crowded tables, servers barely spoke nor smiled. Fine dining? McDonald's is finer than this. Just awful. Bring cash, they don't take credit cards.

The atmosphere is old school, which we loved and brought back memories. The service is excellent and the food is everything I am looking for in a steakhouse. Great cocktails, solid wine list and outstanding steak. Diamond delivered on all three. I am accustomed to going to a steakhouse where the steak is almost $100 bucks with no sides and pretentious service. Our visit was refreshing, especially when the bill arrived (cash or check only). We had a great experience and will definitely go back when in Akron area.

Best steak house in Akron. Please note, must pay by check or they mail you the bill (I'm pretty sure there's a credit card machine in back though bc like come on, you're gonna mail some rando out of towner a check for $300? No way)
