My favorite place to eat when i come into Akron. The food is absolutely AMAZING! The staff are amazing people as well, the hospitality doesn’t compare, everyone in there is super nice people and even though they were booked and reserved, the chef came out and asked what we wanted to eat sat us down made our food and brought it to us! Again, this place is a true gem and i hope they stay there forever. God bless all the people that work in there. Thank you so much for an awesome experience every time!

Where do I start… I’ll begin with the positives. I ordered the Fish of the Day (Swai), and it was fried to perfection—crispy, well-seasoned, and flavorful. My only disappointment was receiving just one piece of fish; I’ve never been served a fish dinner with only a single piece before.
I ordered two sides: greens and potato salad, and unfortunately, both were an extreme letdown. The potato salad had a very strong, overpowering taste that I couldn’t quite identify, but it completely threw off the dish. The greens were canned and tasted extremely sour. I was also given macaroni and cheese as a courtesy. Visually, I was surprised it was even served as-is, but I still tried it—and sadly, it was not good.
Overall, I left very disappointed. On top of the food issues, the greeting upon entering wasn’t welcoming. There was no “Hi” or “How are you?”—just a blunt “here or to go?”
Despite this experience, I’m still open to trying other items on the menu and truly hope this was an off day. My intention with this review is to help, not hurt. We absolutely need more Black-owned businesses to thrive—but consistency, quality, and service matter just as much. Thank you.

My first time eating here and it was excellent. My buddy and I came for lunch. We both ordered the blackened fish and two sides. The fish was perfectly cooked and the blackening spices were delicious. I had Mac&cheese and candied yams for sides. Both are great. I definitely recommend and will return to try the fried chicken.

This is a nice spot to grab some food in Akron. I ordered the blackened chicken tenders, collard greens, mac n cheese and cornbread. The chicken & mac n cheese were tasty. The greens tasted like they were canned but had a nice flavor. Every time someone flushed the toilet, we heard the water going through the pipes, which was a bit concerning. Not a bad restaurant to try, however I wouldn’t make it a point to go back.

First time here and I really enjoyed my food. It was fresh, hot and flavorful. The fried walleye wasn’t overly seasoned and fried to perfection, the collard greens had such a unique taste and the mac n cheese was good and cheddary, but just right. The chicken and andouille gumbo had just the right amount of kick. Although I wish it had a bit more flavor. The service was great and I even had the chance to fist bump the chef. Overall a good experience and I will be back!

Marques Restaurant wonderful experience. We had the chicken strips with candied yams and mashed potatoes. The chicken strips were excellent the breading was flavorful and crispy. Enjoyed the whole meal. Not to mention the services was super friendly the whole experience was great. We will definitely eat here again when we are back in the area. So close to the Goodyear theater. We had dinner and then went to see a show. We made reservations since there was a show that night at the theater.

Was there for the first time Fri 1/9/25. I say first time because it’s definitely good enough to warrant returning, and handy to the venue (Goodyear Theater). The food was good – I called at 11am to get a reservation and was glad I did, as it was reservation only seating at 6pm when we arrived. The menu is varied enough that I have my eye on other items to try, and the full service bar had cocktails that pleased the Mrs., so that’s a win too! We will definitely be returning!

I had the all American burger and Cole slaw. I will tell you that burger was possibly the best burger I’ve had in my lifetime. Cooked perfectly and flavored awesomely. The fries were good themselves but that burger was outstanding. When I finished the burger and fries I thought, ‘nothing could beat that”. Well I will tell you, that coleslaw was definitely the best coleslaw I’ve ever had. It even best out my grandmother’s coleslaw and that is saying a lot. Do yourself a favor and eat here. You will not be disappointed!
