Trips to the family-owned Mapleside Farms have been a tradition in Northeast Ohio since 1927. Now new owners have updated the restaurant and renamed it Melrose Grille. The barn-chic bistro boasts homestyle classics like meatloaf, pork chops, and barbecue, while a new lounge and wine loft give younger neighbors a reason to visit the spectacular grounds.
Casual, family-friendly and notably value-priced, this old-timey steakhouse, in one of the few remaining rural pockets of Medina, is just the ticket for laid-back dining with the kids or spur-of-the-moment weeknight unwinding.
