Once known as the “skyscraper” of its day, the historic Germania Hall building, built in 1878, in downtown Wooster is now home to The City Square Steakhouse.

Award-winning chef Mike Mariola and wife, Emily, opened The City Square Steakhouse in 2008. City Square promises a dining experience you’d expect from a big city while maintaining its historic small-town charm, and has been recognized as one of the Top 100 Steakhouses in America.

The City Square Steakhouse is proud to exclusively use Certified Angus Beef products for all steaks and burgers. In addition to steaks, seafood, and other entrees, the inimitable flavor and delicacy of Butter Cake – City Square’s signature dessert – is truly the “cherry on top” of the City Square experience.

    This is one of our favorite restaurants! The food and cocktails are superb and the wait staff are attentive, professional and enjoyable. We were sat on the patio which we did enjoy for the most part as it's a comfortable space; however, if you're looking for a quiet, more romantic dinner I'd opt for an inside table as the main street through Wooster does seem to have a large number of motorcycle enthusiasts.

    We have been here 4 times and it has been pretty consistent. Tonight, my petite filet was not seasoned as well as usual or cooked to order (medium rare). Our waitress was fantastic!

    The food was very good. Our server was excellent. We were there to celebrate our wedding anniversary which we indicated in our reservation. We picked the restaurant because we wanted to eat at a fancy restaurant. We ended up getting seated out in the covered patio instead of in the restaurant. We would not have gone there if we knew that was going to happen. No mention was made about our anniversary either, so I don't know why they bother to ask you if you are celebrating a special occasion.

    Lots of good buzz about this place but sadly it missed the mark. Steaks were overcooked, lacked flavor, and had that unmistakable “straight from the Sysco truck” vibe. Sides weren’t much better, and we left most of our plates untouched. The one saving grace? Dessert—absolutely amazing and clearly made in-house. Shoutout to the waiter and manager though—they were top notch and made the experience as pleasant as they could. Just wish the food lived up to the service. Very underwhelming overall.

    The ambiance was exceptional, and our New York strip steaks were expertly cooked and seasoned among the finest I've experienced.

    This was our first visit to City Square Steakhouse. We took my wife here for her birthday. Everyone thought their food was excellent. The service from host, waitress to manager was superb. We will be back soon. Thanks for the great experience!
