Crickets Bar and Grille

Cricket's Bar and Grill, where the shrimp and crab tacos are literally to die for! I mean, if I had to choose my last meal, these tacos would be high on the list. They are packed with flavor, and don't even get me started on the spicy boom boom sauce--it's out of this world! Seriously, if you haven't tried it yet, you're missing out on a culinary miracle.Now, let's talk about the drinks. They can definitely make your wallet cry. We ordered Washington apples (which, by the way, are delicious), but when the bill came, we were all left speechless. $15 per drink? Yikes! I get it, I'm all for a good cocktail, but that's a bit steep, especially when you're not given a heads-up by the bartender. By the end of the night, we had racked up almost $500 between the three of us! Ouch! For regulars like us, that felt a tad outrageous.On the flip side, I have to give props to their weekly specials; they're really good! The food is consistently incredible, and the service and staff are pretty great too. The atmosphere is okay, but if you're looking for the sweet spot, the outside patio is where it's at! Just keep in mind that it's only open for a limited time each year.Oh, and don't miss out on their Wednesday bingo! It's a fun way to break up the week and definitely worth checking out. So while I love the tacos and the vibe, just keep an eye on those drink prices! Cheers to hoping for a more wallet-friendly experience next time!

Having lunch with friends. If you haven't tried Crickets you should! Especially on Tuesdays and Thursdays... those are the days when you can get chicken wings for 55 cents each. Full meaty wings, with lots of flavor choices to pick from. They have a full bar, too.

I stopped in here for a late lunch wanting to try some local food. It was taco Tuesday, so I got a 3 taco meal. Gina suggested that I mix them, so I got one hard and two soft chicken tacos. The chicken was tender and juicy. The lettuce was actually spring mix, which I thought was fabulous. The tomatoes ans salsa were good too. A perfect not-so-heavy lunch on a weekday! The woodwork that surrounds you was comforting and clean. They made me feel like a friend. The price was surprisingly low too.

Amazing food! Youngstown wings aren't breaded, the kielbasa is so tasty, the greens are phenomenal, and they have amazing pierogis. 10/10, will dine again. Becky is friendly, helpful, hot and rocking. Sit at the bar and get the good treatment!

This place went whacky since I did the original review years ago. I would never even give a four star review to this place these days.Waitresses quitting for non payment of tips. Food quality all over the map.Still, I do come here. Has beer. An outside bar. Occasional bands. But, yes, it did slide down that hill. No reason for it, they had been busy and earning a profit. I heard issues between different owners. Not a one person proprietorship. Has the worst kind. Owners that work here, owners who don't work here but think they should be making more money sitting on their ass than the employees who do actually work here. And family members. They got it all going on...Oh, and when you complain that the food sucks, it comes off the tab. Almost always. (The average customer here is pretty straight up, when you make people pay for crap food, you get crap customer relations)

Have met with Classmates from Wilson High School ona number of occasions and they were very accommodating to group us together !! It's not so loud and that made it great for a group of 10 to have conversation with out having to yell at each other The menu is large.., food was great and service was excellent. It made for some wonderful memories

Went in for dinner on Saturday evening. We were the only table of customers eating. Bar was 1/2 full. We ordered wings, fries and a side of greens. We ordered soda to drink. Our waitress took our order and brought our drinks to us. She then brought out our wings and fries. No greens. She refilled our drinks. We asked about the greens. About 10-15 minutes later, she brought out the greens and did not give us silverware. Once we asked for silverware, she brought us one set. She refilled our drinks again. Once we got our bill, we were charged 2 times for drinks. $10 for soda. The food was mediocre and the service was horrible. Will definitely not be back.

Good food, good service and reasonably priced. Atmosphere is great , reasonably clean and outside patio seating available. Personal favorite: Burgers

Mi tiempo alli fue una mala experienda. Me llevaron alli anque no queria ir. Pido una noche ocupado con poco personal. Fue cuando fin llego la comida 45 minto despues. Habia poco salsa es mis hegaron a rehaeerlas. Los camaros estban bien. Mala comida, precios baratos y experiencia miserable.

I had been going to Crickets since I was young, and they have done a wonderful job with the new updates and renovations. It's great to see this is still such a special place in the Youngstown area. I recently hosted a private event here with about 80 guests and the Crickets staff went above and beyond to make it a really special occasion. The food, service, and kindness of the bartenders and wait staff exceeded my expectations. A very special place. Great food and drinks.
