Inner Circle Pizza Canfield

I've been here too many times to count. Back in town for Christmas, I had to stop in and see how they were doing.I'm happy to report that this place still has the charm, food, service, and atmosphere that makes it a must stop for a relaxed, pub experience with a Youngstown flare.The calzones are great. I always get sauce on the side.The wings are very good too.I don't think I've ever been here that I didn't get the Circle Salad. The Italian dressing is perfectTheir beer selection has always been diverse and quality. I wish they had more than Penguin City from a local craft perspective.I'll be honest, I didn't get their pizza often when I lived here, but we didn't eat much pizza. When we did, we opted for Sam's in Newton Falls, but IC was a close second when we wanted more diverse topping options. I don't recall ever being disappointed.Service at the bar on this visit was stellar. If Polina is working the bar, you'll be in for a treat. Ask to see her dogs, Pumpkin is adorableIn the end, this place has a vibe, if you wanna make it happen. We loved it on cold winter evenings, warming up with a beer and a calzone, sitting at a high top and enjoying each other's company. Life is what you make it, Inner Circle provides a great backdrop

Easily one of the worst places for food in the area - with eye watering prices. Can go to niccolinis across the street for same price food and much much better quality

Sell to someone that knows how to run a restaurant?Focus on customers, start making good food.

Not very good. Very bland. It's a bar on the inside so ambiance isn't great. Sorry friends.

Ordered some pizza for take out. The pizza was completely uncooked. Called the store and the manager spoke to me like it was an inconvenience I was calling about my raw pizza. He offered half off for the raw pizza. There are too many places that have great pizza in this area to eat here again.

The wings were perfect hot not too much but enough to add a tingle. The stuffed hot peppers were outstanding. Plenty of TVs to watch all the sporting events you want.

It's not that this place used to be great, but it never was THIS bad. My wife's comment was "this pizza is worse than what they served in the cafeteria in high school" and she's not wrong. How you screw up pizza I don't know, but I suppose a combination of undercooked, unsalted dough, and bland sauce would be great starting points if your goal was to serve above-room-temperature disappointment. Their sandwiches had always been good enough, but even that's not true anymore. Again, nothing is salted, so they're relying on the natural flavors (lol) of mass produced frozen meats from Sysco. The fries are still pretty good, though that's such a low bar to clear that I don't know how much it matters. It's not as if French fries are some novelty with limited availability. The wings are good, but again, everyone sells good wings at this point so there's no huge value add. The service is lousy, which for 2024 isn't a huge shocker, but it adds another reason to simply go elsewhere (or really just stay home). It shouldn't take almost an hour to get food out to a table of four on a weeknight. I think the premise of this place has shifted from casual family dinning to catering to the barstool crowd who 1.) consume higher margin draft beers, and 2.) are probably ambivalent about the quality of the food (because of said beers). That's fine if you're going for that kind of business, there's money to be made in that space. But if that's your aim then don't expect glowing reviews from normal people who made the mistake of thinking a restaurant would serve them decent food in a reasonable time frame.

Horrible ... They claim to be open till 10 pm. After calling and they stated kitchen is open till 10pm. Would not seat my family at 8:55 pm. This is the 2nd time in weeks. Will never go back. Taking my $$ down the road to other businesses that want to service the community.

Watch your check if you're eating at the Canfield Inner Circle. The suggested Tip recommendation is highly inflated over the recommendation of percentages: our bill was $22.97Tax. 1.72Balance $24.69Suggested Tip 18% = 5.93 20% = 6.59 22% = 7.25Will not be returning there plus the pricing was somewhat high for nothing special as far as taste is concerned.

We were in last night after graduation. There were 19 of us, and the service was OUTSTANDING, as was the food. Our server handled all of us perfectly, zero errors. So friendly as well. Very pleased!
