In a borderline area of town, hard to find. Good food, plenty of it. Great for the price. More

This place has been around since I was a little girl. I always order the chicken paprikash with extra dumplings and white Italian bread. It's the best I've ever had. If I was on death row and had to pick my last meal that's what I’d order. It’s my comfort food. More

This restaurant has been around for many years serving up the best "hunky" type foods. Stick with the chicken paprikosh, it's the best or cabbage rolls that cling to your ribs. More

I personally love New Era and go a few times a year mainly for lunch. I love the chicken paprikash, its a bit different than my grandma's but i love the flavor and the chicken just falls off the bone. I haven't tried but others i know really like the stuffed cabbage as well and the strudel is quite good.... More

Was advised by many friends, relatives and neighbors that the Chicken Paprikash was the best around, and I was sorely disappointed with tonight's meal: miniscule pieces of chicken swimming in a broth with onions and paprika - straight out of the steamtable. Flavorless flour-over-potato dumplings that melted after 60 seconds. Service was good, and the waitress explained everything on the... More

If you want to get a sense of Akron, then you may want to stop here. There's standard American fare but there's also European dishes you can't find many other places. The servers are warm and gracious. The owners are friendly. And sometimes, if you are lucky, the chef -- a 80 year old woman from Europe -- comes out... More

Poor and I say very poor quality Parikash. Lots of chicken bones they should consider deboneing the chicken the way my hungarian parents do. Small portions and very large prices. I even gave them a second chance the other day because I was in the neighborhood. The swiss steak was smaller than a happy meal size hamburger for 9.00 with... More

I stopped by the New Era yesterday. I ordered the daily special. It was creamed chicken over biscuits. Their creamed chicken consisted of boiled and ground chicken mixed with some kind of canned gravy. That is it. I could only take 2 bites and spit the bones. This meal not only tasted terrible, but it also smelled bad. I had... More

Ok but not as good as everyone makes it out to be. Experienced slow wait staff and fair food. Nice new building that is true. More
