Had a lovely celebration dinner at Lannings. The steaks and sides were delicious. The Mediterranean and Aspen salads are superb. We hadn’t been to the restaurant in several years and thought the renovations were beautiful. Truly an “Akron” gem.

Very nice atmosphere. We were seated promptly. Our server, Deb, was outstanding and a sweetheart. She was attentive, funny, and conversational, without ever being overbearing. Everything a server should be! I ordered a smoked Old Fashioned, and she ever did the smoking of the drink at our table so the smoke would not dissipate on the trip from the bar to the table! Food was excellently prepared and plentiful. All in all a great night out. Thanks Deb!
