One Eleven Bistro - Medina

I live pretty close this place since I moved to Medina County about a year ago. It’s always been on my radar for a nice dinner sometime. A friend of mine and his birthday party there last night. I was pretty excited. Upon walking in I was greeted by the host and seated at a table. That was apparently the incorrect table. Another server came up and escorted me to the back room, where the party actually was seated. I don’t know what the reason for this next part was since everything comes out of the same kitchen, however, in this back room, we were only given a whopping three dinner options to choose from. I inquired as to whether or not, I could get the dish that I really wanted from the full menu that I had seen after being seated at the wrong table and was promptly told no I don’t think so but I’ll check with the manager. Our server, who was great by the way, did check with the manager but came back and said nope they said absolutely not. None of the three options were particularly appetizing sounding but I did pick one of those three and I’ll be honest I would’ve never ordered it if I had other options. It was really was not very good at all. If I’m paying for a meal, I would actually like it to be what I would like to eat so that I can enjoy the meal as well as the company with a group of close friends. Shame on the manager for not being accommodating and god forbid I had any dietary restrictions it didn’t seem like they took any of that into consideration either. Be better and give your patrons what they want This response from the restaurant would make sense if there wasn’t a table setup for nearly the same amount of people and offering the full menu. Do you pick and choose what parties you offer the full menu for? Furthermore, if you still have to make a prepare meals based on what large party guests choose from a limited menu and don’t prepare pre selected meals in advance then what does it actually matter and how is that easier on the restaurant? We had to pick from this paltry limited menu and then still had to wait just as long if not longer than other patrons in the main dining room. I could see if people pre selected meals like at a wedding but that was simply not the case. It simply defies logic.

Unusually good food, especially for near a highway in Ohio. We travel through here to visit family and road food in Ohio is especially dismal. This will be a regular stop. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

A friend and former colleague made arrangements for a reunion of about 30 pp. The banquet room is really well-suited for parties. It is set apart from, but visually connected to the public space. Acoustics allowed for quiet conversation. The guests were treated to a fresh green salad dressed with seasoned evoo and a two-entree buffet accompanied by purple fingerlings and haricots. Seriously folks, the velvety chicken dish enlivened with red grapes was life-changing! Service was cordial and efficient even though our group required separate checks. Great job all around!

I travel on a weekly basis and as such am always out at restaurants. When I tell you this place is a must, I mean it. Seriously incredible from top to bottom. Anthony is a true professional and more than willing to guide you on tasting experience that fits your desires. My focus is always food quality, and these seasonal menus are thought out, tested and 10/10. If you are a foodie and in the area, it would be a mistake for you sample a meal anywhere else. If you’re a cocktail person, this place makes better Old Fashions than some of the fanciest rooftop bars in Manhattan. It may sound like hyperbole, but I guess you’ll just have to try it for yourself Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Salad, Duck Confit
