    Someone should check this dopes credentials. She obviously does not know anything about this subject matter. (She must be related to someone in upper management!)

  • Shawna Bonacci2/11/2012

  • Daljeet2/11/2012

    Typical Yahoo don't know anything about reporting bull@#$%

  • Cory2/11/2012

    Pathetic list considering three of the restaurants listed are closed...The Youngstown Crab Company is the only of the establishments that deserves to be on the list. It's not pasta losers. They have the best quality seafood in Youngstown and it isn't close.

    C'mon let's get serious. At least a little investigative work should be required before you post a review. Dah! Recommending places that are closed? That really validates that old saying, "consider the source". Want some really great "best kept secrets" to dine? Check out Bedford Trails Golf Course, yes, golf course...awesome food and very reasonable. Or Bogey's. Both happen to be in Coitsville, Ohio. Or even LaVilla Bar on Youngstown Poland Rd. in Struthers. Last but not least Belleria Italian Restaurant. All have great entrees and won't bust your wallet.

    PLAN AND SIMPLE THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST REVIEW AND SUGGESTION LIST I HAVE EVER SEEN. Youngstown do have great places to dine at but i would suggest that viewer check out "myvalleydining"

  • Tootsie2/11/2012

    How do I get to write an inacurate article for for Yahoo! I will agree on the MVR, my favorite place to hang.
