deb, we love you! she was our server, and she was so kind, helpful, and funny. we went to celebrate my bfs birthday and she made it a lovely experience for us! my bfs salmon (blackened + medium cooked like deb suggested) was SO good, and the carbonara i got was even better! all staff interactions were so comfortable, we loved it; sometimes that can be hard to find— so thanks all. honorable mentions to the bartender on duty and man from kitchen staff who delivered the food. we will be back! great first experience.

We recently had a great dinner at Burntwood Tavern! We had a reservation and were seated right away, which is always a great start to the evening. The food was good, and the service was top-notch—attentive without being overbearing.
The atmosphere is perfect for a date, but I also noticed they have plenty of space and can easily accommodate large groups. Plus, the parking lot is large and convenient, so there's no stress trying to find a spot.
Overall a smooth and enjoyable experience from start to finish.

Prior to COVID, our family frequented both the Fairlawn and the Cuyahoga Falls locations, specifically for the happy hour which at the time was 1/2 off appetizers…great if you have younger kids. Post COVID the food and restaurant were mid at best and we all but stopped going for almost 5 years. Recently my wife had a work lunch and walked away impressed in the quality of food and expanded menu offerings. Tonight, we went back as a family after almost 5 years and walked away impressed! There have been some updates to the menu - some good, some not (my opinion) but the food is back to the original quality! Our waitress, Deb, was fantastic tonight - she was professional and worked hard to ensure we were taken care of. Good to see the Fairlawn location back to restaurant we remember, we’ll be back for sure.
