    We took my mother there as she was in town visiting from FLorida. Food was incredible and ambiance was second to none in this area. A hit in the pricey side..but it was a great indulgence

    Food was Amazing! Best salmon I've ever had in my life. Everything both my husband and I tried was amazing. Servicer was very good; she was on top of everything all night and they were pretty busy too. Food and service 10/10. Decore and music a little weird though. There is a VERY large picture of a cowboy in the main dining area that is very "Interesting " to put it very lightly. Music was VERY loud and distracting at times. Thats the only reason I took off a star in my review. Everything else was very worth it. Neither my husband nor I drink so we didn't try any alcoholic beverages so I can't really say anything about that, but I see some those others ordered, and they did look very good. Definitely will be trying Ken Stewarts other two restaurants when we want to go on a nice upscale date again.

    We were sat for about 10 minutes before being greeted or given water. Someone came over, apologized for the oversight and comped 3 appetizers. A successful service recovery. We had a fantastic evening with amazing food!

    The food is excellent and our waitress was great! The only complaint we had was the very loud music. It's dinner music, but my husband and I were looking for a quiet meal away from the kids, and the music was so loud we could hardly hear each other talking. We asked the host to turn it down, but it wasn't turned down until about half way through our meal. This was disappointing and honestly odd for a fine dining restaurant. But everything else was excellent.

    We had high hopes, the service was very good and we enjoyed the ambiance. Unfortunately the food was overly salted, and my husband’s Old Fashioned was watered down. We don’t mind spending money on an exceptional meal, but this wasn’t it.

    My girlfriend and I had a great experience here. It’s not very often we treat ourselves to a “fancy” dinner out so we had high hopes and they were exceeded. The menu is really great, all the food was delicious and the service was spot on. The wine list was extensive and very fairly priced which was a pleasant surprise. Next time we want to dine at a nice restaurant I think we will return to Ken Stewart’s Grille. Recommending to my friends and family. Cheers.

    Pricey? Maybe. But when the food, ambience, and service are impeccable, the value is also a 10. Kristy is a phenomenal server and quickly became a part of our table...she is fantastic! My thumbs up to the chef on the chocolate chip, banana bread pudding, the braised beef rib, and even Ken's house salad. Unfortunately I can't go weekly but I will absolutely be back.

    Why do some restaurants like this one charge you a credit card fee of 3% on a $400.00 bill while a burger shop or a bar does not on a $50.00 bill. It’s simple, it’s all about their added profit not respect for the clients and their loyalty. Well, they have choice to nickel and dime you and I have one not to go back.

    Dining with Excellence at one of Akron's best independent restaurants. Our party had the Chilean Sea Bass, Ahi Tuna, and Seafood Mixed Grill - all excellent! Ken's house salad with white french dressing is the bomb. Exceptional service and ambience.

    We were seated right away which is always a plus. Our server was Sandy. She is very professional and attentive, we enjoyed her service very much. We had lobster deviled eggs for an appetizer which were fantastic. I had the wedge salad and my wife the field greens. Both were excellent. I had sea bass and asked the chef to prepare it blackened. It came out perfectly. My wife had the potato crusted grouper. She ate every morsel. Dessert was lava cake for my wife and I had the peanut butter bomb. They were both the bomb ! Our only complaint is being charged 3% for using a credit card to dine with. This does not sit well with me. These fees are part of doing business and should not be passed on to the client @$5.37 on a $200 bill. Seems petty and kinda tacky. If you want that extra $5 from your guests at least hide it.

    We met friends there for lunch. Value a 4 star as if you are looking for a cheap dining experience, this isn’t your place. But if you are looking for a fantastic meal with excellent service, this is your place. We don’t mind paying more as long as it checks all the boxes. This one certainly did!

    Awesome as always! Celebrating our son’s birthday- food was absolutely phenomenal!!! Only complaint- and it may seem very trivial and maybe we were just under a speaker was the pumped in jazz Muzak was pretty loud… otherwise- service was excellent and only surpassed by the taste of the food!
