“It’s impossible to say how good it is there. The food is always top notch. Any item on the menu is executed with care and technical skill. The service is always fantastic. A neurologist friend took me here many years ago as a graduation celebration from nursing school. I’ve been coming back ever since, and I’ve never had a disappointment for a night or meal. It’s always our go to on big date nights for the orchestra or concerts. The food is served quickly so you can get on with your night. Great work tonight guys, the meal was exceptional. With love-”

“Have to give up caffeine for a long while so I'm switching over to caffeine free tea - got a lot of help with selecting my tea and it's so delicious, I'm obsessed with it! Peppermint Pattie is amazing. Can't wait to come back and get more flavors.”

“Explored the creative cocktail menu and everything was excellent. Service was attentive.”

“One of the best pizza places I’ve had in such a long time, in fact the best pizza place I’ve ever had. We will definitely be back”

“Aside from food, coming out a little bit on the slow side, and they weren't that busy, maybe shorthanded in the kitchen? But it was fantastic! The pizza was so good. The pretzel, the vegan meatballs, the drinks, and the cauliflower steak! All really really good, will definitely be back.”

“This is our new favorite restaurant after having driven by it for over for ten years and only today finally taking the plunge (you simply must get a reservation except on the most dull weeknights)!

The recipes are stunningly good and their execution is simply top-rate. The table service was excellent, very professionally done! The environment is great too! the desserts are superbly executed as well, to include the house-made gelato!

The only thing anyone could honestly complain about is the cost: it’s expensive, but everything of highest quality is, so the value is still very high in our opinion.

We won’t be eating here too often, but it is now squarely our favorite restaurant in northeastern Ohio!”

“First time having real Indian food and I was blown away. The hot had flavor, not just heat. So many sauces and chutneys, they even have an all you can eat lunch buffet daily that I’m so coming back for. Small restaurant but what charm the atmosphere had. 18 years in business and I can see why.”

“Had a wonderful meal with family excellent view of the Lake. We will be back”

“My friend and I went there last night for my birthday. The food was amazing!! Everything we ordered was just delicious. Meals were paced out perfectly in between. All the plates were a good portion for the shareable experience. We ordered first was the tuna crostini and the lamb hummus. Both by far amazing! The hummus was the best hummus I have ever had!! (Side note. The chef came over and told us that there is this wrap on HH during the week, we will def be back for it!) Second was the zucchini plate on top of a ricotta puree. Amazing! Not sure how he cooked it, but it was crisp and delightful! Then we had this fried Idaho potato! 🥔 literally the biggest potato I have ever seen. Topped with a feta, chives and creme fraise, sided with a homemade sriracha. Just yum!!! Then finally, aged and cooked to perfection, a hangar steak. 🥩 sliced for sharing with a salad on the side. It was amazing! The chef did a great job on presentations, food, and that steak is to die for! Also didn’t mention on yummy the cocktail menu is!!! 5/5 would visit again to try more items! I might even order that hummus tonight again for takeout! 🫶🫶🫶”

“My husband and I popped in for dinner after he arrived home from a family event. We wanted a date night after being away from one another for several days/nights. It was our first time. I sent him the menu as he boarded his plane and he was looking forward to a “new spot”. It did not disappoint. We were attended to from the time we sat down until after we tabbed out. We tried several dishes to get an idea of their style of cooking. The prosciutto melted in our mouths.. the ricotta was extremely creamy and bread from Breadsmith? DELISH. The Italian wedding soup was delicious, the pig n’ fig pizza was excellent (kudos on the dough and crust!), the spicy vodka rigate was on point! Not too spicy.. just that perfect amount of crushed red pepper in the sauce. The wine list was an extensive and our servers (we love to sit at the bar) was top notch! (Forgive me because I’m bad with names but I believe they were Alyssa and Jackie?) it is now on our list of must return spots. They were jamming for a Wednesday night. We initially sat at the rail bar but a couple waved in our direction to let us know they were leaving in a few minutes. If you’re looking for a quiet, romantic spot, it’s not quiet but it doesn’t echo, either. The details are beautiful, the artwork is pleasant to the eye and it was a perfect romantic date night spot for us. One of the better Italian spots in the area. Kudos and thank you for a great evening! Oh. P.S. the 12 month prosciutto with ricotta “primi” is definitely enough to share with 4 people. lol. So good!”

“This was our first time ordering from tomori’s. Wings, pizza and pasta were all fantastic! We will be back.”

“Went to Pepper’s for the first time and I have to say it was the best experience! From the service to the apps to the food to the drinks it was just phenomenal! Will absolutely be back!”

“Service was amazing but i honestly didnt care for the general tso sauce it was a little too sweet and didnt have any spice to it everything else was great though!”

“Great mid-century vibe in the basement of Mahall’s. Refreshingly unpretentious with a nice selection of specialty cocktails. Great place to chat with friends while enjoying the sound of the old school bowling action next door.”

“Excellent food! Great egg rolls!! & Bone in spare ribs are the best I’ve ever had!!! ?”

“Held my Norse-Pagan wedding reception here, and holy $#!T, it was an amazing experience (really affordable too). Eugene catering is sooo good, and I highly recommend the pot roast. Rollo and Chef B were simply awesome, and made it to where we didn't have to worry about a thing. I can't say enough about the incredible service, food, atmosphere, and mead. Make sure to try the chicken tenders...my mouth is watering just thinking about them again. A perfect Viking mead hall. Skål!

Parking: Limited parking in the back or on street”

“Best gyros ever, traditional and chicken!!!”

“We came to this place after leaving Amazonia and received much better service and much better food. I should def recommend their pineapple drink! It was great I didn’t take pictures but this place deserve 10/5 because the place next door was a definite let down”

“I wish I could say I recommend this place because it was a tradition to go here at Easter time and grab chocolate crosses and bunnies. After leaving the store this weekend with such a small amount of different chocolates for 33.00 dollars I was so disappointed. I shared the photo and price with a couple friends and even they were shocked. It's really sad how extremely high a small amount is. I just wish the customer was kept in mind a little more when these prices get so hicked up. There was a second pretzel candy bar of no charge (BOGO) not pictured.”

“Nothing compares to Angelo’s”

“Food was very good coffee is amazing first time”

“I love the pizza and I would go back. I just wish there was more accessible parking Close to the restaurant but the pizza and I will definitely come in again #Theirpizziaisawesome”

“Great cookies with unique flavors. Always love the ones with the pat of butter on top! These are the type of cookies you bring to a party and you buy their little cookie cutter and it cuts them in like six pieces I think. Then everyone gets to try a little wedge of all the different flavors and it's fantastic and fun!”

“What a great place! My wife's been here several times before but this was my first chance to join her. I love the space and the concept, and the owner was super friendly and answered my many questions about the business and the beer.
One thing that pleasantly surprised me was that there were several beers that I would have never ordered normally, but since it was by the ounce I was able to do a lot of sampling and found that I enjoyed a couple more than I would have guessed. Great place to expand your beer palate!”

“This place was so cute. The wine & cheese was delicious”

The staff in the kitchen … you guys are so amazing, warm and gracious. We will be back. The Tinman! That was one extraordinary burger. And the fries, chicken tenders are out of this world with all those sauces. Can’t thank you enough. Also, the interior vibe and feel of the place is wonderful. A MUST if you’re in Cleveland or visiting. ❤️”

“I tried this place for the first time and EVERYTHING was amazing!!! The decor when you walk in. I came on a Thursday and they have karaoke night ! I thought that was cool and I didn’t know this initially. I came for the restaurant/rooftop. We went upstairs and they had a good playlist of songs , the food was amazing !!!! Absolutely delicious. I order the fire roasted shrimp as appetizer and it was so good when the veggies !! Although it said fire it wasn’t hot at all. It was Made just right . I ordered the chicken and waffles as my entree . Chicken was cooked perfect and the hot honey syrup was good as well . We also order the BBW wings and fries which were good too. I tried the green apple slushy mixed with the peach one and added my choice of liquor ! Delicious!!! Our sever Tone was great ! I will definitely be back. It’s a LBGTQ restaurant and they have drag brunch on Sundays ! I’ll be going to check it out . I’ve always wanted to go to one and now I do ??”

“Sacred Waters in Lakewood is hands-down one of the most unique and welcoming spots in the city. Whether you’re stopping in for your first shell or you’re a longtime regular, the energy here is always warm, chill, and full of community.

The kava is top-tier— smooth & strong. They’ve also got a great selection of herbal teas, and creative seasonal drinks (try anything the kavatenders recommend—you won’t be disappointed).

The staff are knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely care about creating a space where everyone feels safe and seen. Plus, the events here are awesome—karaoke nights, fashion shows, open mics, goth prom… they’re always doing something fun.

If you’re looking for a sober-friendly, community-driven hangout where you can relax, connect, and sip something special, Sacred Waters is it.”

“You have to try the chicken paprikash soup. It's delicious! I might suggest a dollop of sour cream to top it off.”

“Great food and wonderful hospitality. The drinks are amazing”

“Ya know, the place is great fun. The owner (Rick) is a really great guy. People are fun and I'd rate the experience higher if it weren't for the idiot "manager" (Brandon). This fool discourages and turns away people because he is a racist. Yup! Idiots are still out there. Unfortunately, they let this TOTAL looser run the place because he claims to have info on people in high places. He makes the stuff up! Hand to God's, it is total truth. Have a couple cocktails with friends, when you are on your way out he will call the Lakewood police on you. Instantly ruining your life!!! I KNOW!!! Who pulls that kind of sick move?!?! BRANDON at Corky's on Detroit!!! I know it's the absolute truth! He did it to my best friend.”

“Sooooo Good!!!! Love this place”

“The quiche is unbelievable, the lemon chicken soup is light and perfect, the pastries drove my coworkers crazy! Despina's is literally unbeatable”

“Amazing food, service and atmosphere! We started with fresh bread - with marinated red peppers, olives, artichokes and charcuterie. It was a party of six celebrating a birthday and we enjoyed a few glasses of wine and cocktails. We shared a chorizo Mac & cheese, sliders, flatbread and pork belly. Every dish was excellent. Highly recommend for a night out.”

“We went last night for our first time. Absolutely delicious. Fresh perfectly seasoned and very generous servings. Service was provided with a friendly smile. We will be regulars for sure. Go support this great local business. Your stomach will thank you!”

“We went for dinner is everything was great! My favorite part was the drinks. The blueberry tasted very fresh. The dinner met expectations. We tried the key lime cheesecake for dessert and it was just alright. Tasted like one you can get at the store.. Probably would pass on dessert. But we had a great time and would come again.”

“This was, by far, one of the best experiences ever! The food, the atmosphere, and the service were comparable to none!”
