The Wine Room

I have patronized the Wine Room at the Galaxy in Wadsworth, Ohio for years. I have always had great experiences here and recently realized that I had yet to review it on Yelp. I stopped here on my way home from a seminar in Columbus at the end of October, 2017. After a 2.5 hour drive I was tired and hungry and frazzled and facing the toxic combination of construction/rush-hour traffic on my way north through Akron. Enter: The Galaxy!The Wine Bar at the Galaxy is worlds away from the Sports Bar (which is located just down the hallway.) The Sports Bar glorifies an expansive 2-tier-stadium-seating idea whereby patrons can absorb a multitude of flat-screen TVs (along with copious amounts of beer).The Wine Bar is mahogany wood, hushed conversations, dim lighting, and intimacy. The Wine Bar has an exclusive menu and wine list (though one can also order from the Sports Bar menu upon request). The wine choices are impressive and unique!Smooth Jazz is the music of choice in the Wine Bar. I ordered my favorite Burgess Merlot at one-half the price per glass (Happy Hour prices from 4 PM until 6 PM - yaaaaayyyy for me)! Melinda was working at the bar the evening I visited. She was knowledgeable about wine and spirits. During my visit "regulars" came into the Wine Bar to gossip with Melinda or to update her on their lives.I ordered a "specialty" hamburger from the "bar" menu and it was amazing!! I also ordered wedge potatoes (like steak fries). OMG! These were delicious! My requests were fulfilled and my dinner was served in a calm, quiet, relaxing environment.Love, love, love it here!

This place is simply lovely. We sat in front of a cozy fireplace and had some of the best food I've ever had. The service was wonderful, and if you're celebrating a birthday or special event they will treat you like royalty. My husband had a steak, done perfectly and my scallops were terrific. I was delighted with this place and will definitely return.
