Dante's Gameday Grille

This place is awesome. First, the food is amazing. We ordered wings and the boneless wings. You could tell the chicken was fresh and the sauces were amazing. The bartender suggested the Gameday sauce mixed with the Hot. The combination will soon be our favorite.
The beer selection was ok but the service was better than any other place in the area, especially for the bars in North Akron. We will be sure to keep going back on Saturday nights to get our gameday and sports fix.

A friend dragged me out to this place one night for the Ohio State-Michigan lost, which ended in tragedy when Ohio State lost by 5.

This is an above-average sports bar in a location most people wouldn't expect a good bar to be located in. It is in North Hill, but not the part of North Hill where you'll die if you're out at night - it's in the part of North Hill that is average in every way. There are televisions everywhere, and all but one were turned onto ESPN. Towards the end, I got tired of hearing about Linsanity, so I was kinda curious why one of the TVs weren't playing BTN or FSN Ohio.

The beer selection was not really noteworthy. Black & Tan was on tap, so I can't really complain. The bartender was good. I don't know if he was the best I've ever had, but he was still up there.

The most pleasant surprise in this place was the food. Oh God, the food. I ordered some boneless wings at the urging of my friend. The boneless wings tasted and looked like they were made from scratch. I was getting tired of the generic frozen boneless wing meat, so these wings really made me happy. They were large and tasted meaty. It needed a little more breading, but other than that it was good. The sauces could also be improved. It would help business if they created a sauce here like Quaker Steak & Lube's Triple Atomic Sauce and had some sort of insane food challenge involving those wings, just an opinion.

I wasn't expecting much coming in, but I left happy.

Absolutely the best hot wings around! Everything I have ever eaten there I have thoroughly enjoyed, and the bar staff is always friendly and efficient. My go-to when I want to go have a drink, and maybe a snack after work. I love Dante's,
