Tucked Next To Columbus Is An Ohio Day Trip City With Antique Shops, Tasty Eats, And A Bustling Downtown

Each appendage, in its own right, stands on its own yet also enhances the city's biggest draws: beer, German culture, a lively downtown, and an excellent foodie scene. Powell, a day-trip city tucked next to Columbus in Delaware County, adds to that wealth with its own antique shops, tasty eats, and bustling downtown.

San Marino Italian Restaurant is an Old World feast | Local Flavor

Our advice? Bring an appetite. The portions are huge at San Marino Italian Restaurant . If you can make it through an entire plate of food in one sitting, you are remarkable. We didn’t even come close. My wife, Susie, and I had a feast on our first visit to the restaurant at 3071 Albrecht Ave. in Springfield Township on the outskirts of Ellet in Akron. Brothers Bill and Perry Thompson are the chefs and owners of the restaurant, which opened in 2024 at the former Eldorado’s Pizza & Sports Bar. If the architecture looks familiar, the building began in the 1960s as a Lawson’s convenience store and later served as a Dairy Mart. The chefs use Northern Italian recipes passed down for five generations in the DeNisi and Marinucci families. That includes their mother’s meatballs and their grandmother’s Italian wedding soup. Their uncle Perry “Butch” DeNisi owned Perry’s Pizza in Los Angeles, which had more than 30 locations in California and Hawaii. The restaurant appeared in the 1982 movie “Fast Times at Ridgemont High.” The brothers pride themselves on authentic cuisine carefully prepared with fresh ingredients and scratch-made sauces and dressings. The YouTube series “America’s Best Restaurants” paid a

New owner takes over long-stalled Harrison House B&B hotel conversion

The local real estate company behind long-delayed plans to convert a historic Harrison West bed-and-breakfast into a boutique hotel has sold the property to another local business owner after struggling with years of code violations, lapsed permits and more than a million dollars in unforeseen expenses. Harrison House Bed & Breakfast , located at 313 W. 5th Ave., operated for decades before it was sold in 2021 to husband-and-wife real estate duo Catherine and Bryan Williamson, whose company Mix Design Collective specializes in interior design and old home remodels. The pair planned to transform the property into Hotel Plaas – a boutique hotel featured on a Magnolia Network show – but five years and multiple missed deadlines later, the project remains unfinished. Now, it has a new steward. Rob Calabro, owner of The Lincoln bed-and-breakfast in the Short North, recently purchased the property and its business assets for $1.7 million. He said the Williamsons will retain an ownership stake but declined to disclose the size of their investment. Catherine Williamson said she and her husband will keep a "minority interest" while Calabro takes the lead on completing renovations and launching the hotel.
