Toledo, OH 43615

This is the kind of place that will never let you down. No wonder their sign says “good food.” If that’s the case, do you need to say much else?

Ste 11B
Toledo, OH 43614
Yelp: 4 Stars; 87 Reviews.
First of all, your typical “burger joint” doesn’t usually have as amazing of appetizers and salads as Burger Bar 419. Chipotle picked pineapple and goat cheese crostini? Sriracha-soy deviled eggs? Followed with a pear, almond and brie salad? Yep, you just heard me right. And then you get to the actual burgers, the very things you came for! The Pate Melt has gruyere and pate. The Three Little Pigs has ground pork, bacon and bbq pork shoulder. The Wet One comes with beef jus. … If they don’t have burgers like this in heaven, then I will not go.

(419) 473-0885
Yelp: 4 Stars; 88 Reviews
One of the most authentic Lebanese restaurants in the Midwest, The Beirut is a place everyone in Toledo should try at least once.
