Large Portions, Equivalent Prices: Claddagh Irish Pub Review

4

I have been to Claddagh quite a few times now, both for lunch, dinner, and a Christmas (I think) buffet.  I am always full when I leave, and generally happy with the food, but feel a bit guilty because even without alcohol, it is not cheap to eat here.

The truth is that if the portions were a little smaller, the prices could be more reasonable.  I would then probably frequent the place since I -love- the atmosphere…more in a minute.  However, though sandwiches are available and provide plenty of food for a more reasonable cost, ($7-11), entrees …

Plenty of Spice, Not Enough Warmth: Bistro Wasabi Review

4

Located in Levis Commons across from Poco Piatti, Bistro Wasabi seems to be a favorite of the Japanese restaurants in the Toledo area.

In a former life, Sakura’s digs were a decidedly less Japanese restaurant called Ralphies (which has since moved further down Monroe to the Starlight Plaza), and even further back in history, a Big Boy. A complete overhaul of the restaurant interior has convincingly torn the American hamburgers and sports heritage from the building’s memory - some booths have even been replaced with low Japanese tables and floor mats. I would say there are …

A Cheeselover’s “Delite”: Gino’s Italian Delites Review

4

Although not to be confused with The Original Gino’s Pizza, Gino’s Italian Delites on Eastgate also has delicious pies, piled high with cheese and pizza sauce. Their sauce is tangy and sweet, with (in our opinion) the right amount of spices; the crust is buttery, golden brown and chewy, somewhere between crispy thin and thick crust.

Toledo Menu wholeheartedly recommends Gino’s Italian Delites pizza, but not without a disclaimer: their pizza has more cheese than any we’ve had between Chicago and New York. The pizza at Gino’s is definitely not made with the lactose intolerant in mind.

The Eastgate …
