"Unfortunately, this was our first time. Honestly, we would 've tried it much sooner if the sign didn 't look, well, fishy. The combination of the name, the sign and the restaurant hill location, which these days raises a red flag to most Akronites, sadly kept us away. We finally tried it b/c a friend said it was actually fine dining. Curiosity got the better of me, and boy am I glad it did! Fantastic service from start to finish (which sadly)we don 't find much in Akron these days. Each course was exquisite, probably the best damn martini (Belvedere) I 've ever had...crafted superbly. The bread fantastic. The manager stopped by our table to check on us after our entrees arrived...the temperature was perfect, the music was perfect, the decor and atmosphere fabulous! After our meal, I inquired w/the server, who owned the restaurant? Who the chef was, etc.? She explained it was the same group that owns The Blue Point in CLE, as well as other superb restaurants. My husband and I glanced at each other a knowing look...ahh, this explains everything! I wish they would 've just said so...! If that sign had read The BluePoint South (It 's South of CLE the cuisine has a bit of a Southern twist), We would 've been there the week it opened! I mentioned this to many friends and they muttered the same sentiments, they 'll be trying it now. My biggest regret is that we haven 't been dining here since it opened!!"
