OK Cafe Marion,Ohio — Restaurant in Marion

Was in marion for my first time for a couple of days for work and wanted to catch the Monday night football game, grab a bourbon, a cold beer, and try some local pizza. Besides the ugly red and gray ohio colors, I had a nice welcoming feel. Bartender was a sweetheart great service Pizza was awesome although I don't know if ohio did not get the memo, but breadsticks are cut in straps and pizza is a pie and u cut it like a pie eh'. Exceptions made if you're in the great state of Michigan and you're slicing a deep dish that's baked in a square or rectangular pan, but even then, slices are square. But I digress, they did provide the "triangular" "pie shaped" serrated edge spatula, so with a little self slicing of my piping hot cheesy, pepperoniee,14"pizza strips, I was able to manage.i will say it made it easy for dipping into their surprisingly great ranch dressing. Great pizza. I definitely recommend if you're in town. Also, I had the corn bites since I couldn't figure out how they got cream corn breaded and deep fried and just had to try. It's corn, and it comes from this amazing Cobb with nobbs. I could tell ya all about it, but some other kid already did. All and all, great spot to catch the game. Also a decent bourbon selection. Great food, good people with poor choices in sports teams to root for! If they just had better choices in colors and added some Maize & Blue!!...

A friend and I called around looking dor a place open that we could get a pizza and this was one we hadn't tried yet as well as they were open when others were not. The woman that took our order and helped us out (her name slips my mind. I apologize, but I will edit and put it when I find out) was amazing and when asked what she would recommend and what was good to get she replied "everything". She also said they had the best pizza in Marion. She was absolutely correct. I don't know what sort of sorcery you guys so, but the bacon Pepperoni, and sausage pizza we ordered was nothing like I have ever had before. The flavor was amazing. The bacon grease made it so flavorful that it's what makes it stand out from them all. It wasn't sopping grease and it had just the right amount of sauce and a very very generous topping of meats. More than others would give! I have to say it is in fact the best pizza in Marion and probably the surrounding areas. Hands down! Will be...

I have had an Italian sub and a calzone on my two visits. The staff has always been attentive and friendly. My Italian sub was great. Loved the fresh ingredients and the toasted bun. The Yuenglings was just the right temp. On my recent visit we tried the calzone. I've never been a calzone person but I really enjoyed it. Nice and crispy, golden brown, with the piping hot cheese and ingredients oozing out. Love being satisfied with half of my order and having leftovers for lunch. Also enjoyed my 'not overpoweringly sweet' root beer. Love the venue and the fact that the OK Cafe is back! PLEASE NOTE: in looking at the reviews, much of the negative input is from BEFORE Nicole, Clayton, and Scott became involved. As an old advertising slogan and an old actor once proclaimed: "Try it, you'll like it!" (We sure did.),...
