    The lobster was excellent. The rice pilaf was somewhat bitter as if it had been burned. The Caesar salad was good, but I would’ve preferred. the anchovy be minced and mixed within the dressing as I am accustomed to seeing. The real disappointment was the escargot. I think it was the presentation. I’m accustomed to seeing them either in their shell or in a white porcelain dish specifically for escargot, with butter and seasonings adding some color. Instead, these were in a stainless steel dish, and the sauce was more like light brown broth…and very drab looking. The service was absolutely outstanding!

    Had dinner with my wife and another couple, 1st of all we were greeted very nicely by the owners Bethany and Dean and seated promptly, we ordered a few drinks and ordered appetizers. The appetizers were excellent we had the crab cakes, we placed our main food order and our salads came out right on time, and we were served bread when we sat down. I ordered the porterhouse steak which was cook perfectly, my wife ordered the filet and scampi which she said was perfect and the scampi looked like lobster tails (no skimping at this restaurant). My friend had the rack of lamb and he said it too was great and very tasty, his wife had the small filet and that to was great. So overall the food rating at this restaurant is excellent, and the deserts was also great. After dinner we went to the bar for a few cocktails before we left and we talked to the bartender and the rest of the staff. I have to say at this restaurant not only do they treat you with respect and top notch class but they also treat you like family. Hats of to the new owners Bethany and Dean we will see you soon and to everyone I would recommend this restaurant 100 percent.

    We are absolutely never disappointed at Lanning's. The food is always extraordinary and the service is superb. We went to celebrate our daughter turning 17 and had a lovely evening talking and looking at the water while genuinely enjoying each other's company in a very relaxed setting. The servers served our table impeccably, and we couldn't have been happier. I ordered a dirty martini with blue cheese stuffed olives and it was amazing, it got my evening off on the right foot! Our steaks were (as per the usual Lanning's standard) phenomenal. They melt in your mouth. Our 9 year old son is a famously picky eater and Cody, our server, went out of his way to make him comfortable. We enjoyed interacting with the wait staff, they were very friendly and good conversationalists. We can't wait to return. Thank you to the entire staff for never disappointing!

    I had a great night out with some friends at Lanning's.. never really thought of this place as somewhere to go for dinner and drinks with friends but enjoyed the bar/"lounge" area a lot. Great bourbon selection and enjoyed the appetizers before the dinner. All in all, a really nice experience and somewhere I'll be back with friends, clients, and more. 10/10, thank you!

    This restaurant is perfect for dates. This was once the nicest restaurant in the Akron area and its original glory is back now that it’s been remodeled on the inside. My wife and I got a smoked salmon and snails for appetizers and they were great. I ordered a French Onion soup and it was delicious. I ordered their 6 ounce filet and I bought the sauté onions and mushrooms to go with it, everything was amazing. My wife ordered baked fish and she said that it was delicious. I ordered a speakeasy drink and it was strong. My wife and I shared a butter cake dessert and it was deliciously amazing. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    Lanning's has always been a special place. I've come here for many years and always enjoyed excellent food, drinks, and service throughout the experience. The new owners have done a fantastic job renovating the restaurant and upgrading aspects of the experience modernizing the setting and keeping the class. The owner (Dean) has come to our table every visit to ensure everything is fantastic and to thank us for dining. Our last visit the chef even came to our table- an excellent personal touch. Both the dining room and Deano's Lounge are a great place to spend an special evening.

    2/28/23 we had reservations for 6:30 and arrived a bit early. We were there to celebrate my husband's birthday. We were greeted and welcomed as soon as we arrived. My husband was given a handwritten birthday card as we were seated which included a card for a free desert. Our server, Jade, was very helpful and answered our questions knowledgeably. Our dinners were served graciously, and the food was excellent. The menu items were a bit pricey but worth every penny for the ambiance and romantic atmosphere. I definitely will return.

    We were celebrating my father in laws 90th birthday. We’ve been to Lannings many times over the last few years and this was the first time we experienced average food. The bone in rib eye was extremely fatty, the bone in filet was average and the sea bass was a bit over cooked.

    Steaks were WAY undercooked. No one stopped by to check on them, so we couldn’t get them taken up. French onion soup was bland. The apology was a coupon for a free appetizer the next time we are in (our check was $300 for 2 people).

    The food, view and ambiance is amazing. Most of the time so is the service. Just not this time. Waiter was not very attentive. We had to track him down a couple time on a night when it wasn’t that busy. He didn’t smile a single time and everyone could see he was visibly irritated when we asked him to have the valet pull the car around.

    First time we have been to Lannings since the week the new owners took over. We enjoyed it. The vibe was fun (though it looks like more of an early crowd than a late one - at least on a Friday night). The service was excellent- it is clear they make service a priority. The wine options were solid and on this night they had a special on a good Silver Oak Cab where they essentially sold it at cost. The steaks (bone in rib eye) were really good - tender, nicely seasoned, cooked exactly as ordered (rare). The salad (wedge) was generous and the homemade dressing was good. The side order beans were somewhat overdone so we didn’t eat them but that is our only complaint. Bottom line it was a good experience and we’ll be back again.

    A beautiful Monday night for a pre-Valentine dinner at our favorite restaurant. My husband and I always have loved coming here year after year, and seeing the restaurants many changes, we can't wait to come back even more often. I had the small filet and my husband had the sea bass, so good! Perfectly cooked and service was so friendly and knowledgeable. From one happy customer to the next, try the butter cake. You'll thank me later! :)

    Was sat in bar next to entertainment. So had to talk above it. I had reservations but was unaware I was going to sit in bar and expected to be seated in dining room. That’s on me but when I was asked how the experience was, I stated this and was told “we have that problem with open table”. Well if u do, why is it my problem. Steak has a lot of gristle. Sorry, you wanna be top level steakhouse, you don’t blame someone else for an issue and you definitely don’t serve that steak. Service was very good

They have a beautiful, vibrant restaurant; the staff was amazing, and the service and food was extraordinary .The chef stopped by our table, Joe was on point with service and recommendations and Dillion was very attentive and courteous to our every need. We will definitely be back and spread the word to our network.

    The overall experience was great. Cocktails were delicious as well as the shrimp and sides. The service continues to be excellent as well. My husband enjoyed his steak very much. I had the rack of lamb, but I will not get it again. I’ve had it over the years with fantastic results. The last two times, the lamb has been a bit chewy and grizzly. Also, they do not cut it into individual chops anymore. I did mention it to the waitress, but she just ignored it. Other than that, we enjoyed it very much. The new renovations are nice and it’s a cozy atmosphere with a Las Vegas vibe. I think the new owners are very dedicated to the business, as they are always greeting and talking with customers making them feel special.
