Somewhat of a hole in the wall bar, but their pizza is to die for! They also have live music 7 nights a week.
The Village Idiot

Locally owned by a well-known restaurant family, this place spares no expense when it comes to the quality of their pizza. They even have a machine to replicate New York City water to make their pizza extra special!
The Stubborn Brother Pizza Bar

This is THE steakhouse to go to in Toledo. This family also owns the Stubborn Brother Pizza restaurant. All of their restaurants are amazing.

Moe's isn't much to look at, but I've never had a bad meal here! In fact, this is where we go to celebrate family birthdays. Most people go to a fancy joint, not us. We like our cheap bar food!

There's an urban legend that women go to Inky's to induce labor, and the track record is pretty high!

The Grape Leaf does not cut corners when it comes to their food quality or their portions. A must visit for sure. Try the Chicken Shawarma.
