“This was our first time dining at Cru Uncorked and we definitely will be coming back. Our server, AL, was a consummate professional. His recommendations for my drink was spot on to what I wanted and his description of my entree was as well. The ambiance was reminiscent of the club restaurants of long ago. Lovely. I can't wait to return and dine on the gorgeous patio. A memorable experience, to be sure.“

“Save up some money for this restaurant, but excellent higher class cooking hell's kitchen would be proud of. Waitress excellent. Management walked around talking with guests. Can't go wrong here, just plan on spending $75 plus for two, but hey! It's quality. Well organized. Sounded like some Hispanics cooking also with hearing the language. Impressive with a minor flaw of water stains in the section I was in. It overlooks Chagrin falls with a nice view out the windows.“

“Amazing experience, can’t wait to go back! Pancakes and sausage I’ve had were probably the best breakfast I’ve tasted. Local maple syrup was a wonderful touch. Even butter was very tasty. Staff were amazing from waitresses to the cook who all wanted to make sure that my experience was exceptional. Service was extremely quick and despite busy dining room, my order came right up. I also loved the atmosphere - elevated breakfast diner experience. Thank you so much for wonderful morning. I’ll be back to try other items on the menu!“

“First time here and it was the bomb dot com. The food was fresh and hot, waitress was noce and attentive and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. I will be going back. They are only open till 2 pm est, they serve breakfast and lunch so keep that in mind when you go there to eat.“

It was truly special and was anything but a hardship.The 4 of us shared a salad and could have shared all our dishes as we all came home with half our terrific meals.Loved the photographs and the manager was forthcoming about the restaurant, his story of the area and the locale. Thank you for a great experienceVegetarian options: Limited… but delicious“

Corned beef, sauerkraut, cheese, sauce and grilled to perfection!We also ordered an Italian Sub - also delicious! Fries were crispy and fresh. Everyone agreed the onion rings were out of this world!Truly a hidden gem in Novelty!“

Also I enjoy shopping at the boutique for gifts, they always have lovely jewelry sets that I've gifted to various people and they have loved it.Kid-friendliness: Welcoming of kids.“

“I was pleasantly surprised by the Northstar cafe. Stopped in for a quick bite to eat before Sunday mass. The food came out quick and was delicious. Was a bit sad that they didn’t have a wider latte selection, but the atmosphere and food made up for it. There’s a coffee shop close by at Van Aken Market.“

“This is a terrific local diner. The eggs Benedict with hash browns are my favorite although their omelettes are great as well. My cousin always has a salad and she is always very pleased. Coffee is decent and continually topped off. They take credit cards now, which aids convenience. Lots of regulars and a friendly environment.“

“We just had a great diner style breakfast on a Saturday morning! Really neat daily special that featured a flame-seared beef skewer. Staff was great and everyone was cheerful despite the stress of a Saturday morning breakfast rush. Will definitely go back. Works best with small parties.“

“Cool place to have some food and drinks. Atmosphere inside is nice and chill, servers were pleasant. Food was DELICIOUS --- I highly recommend the brussel sprouts and crispy potatoes. The cocktails were very good. The food and drinks are a bit overpriced but I expect it in Pinecrest. Would have given 5 stars but when asked if we wanted water when first arrived they brought out an artesian bottled water and didn't give offer us "free" water. They charged us $8 for the water we didn't have a choice in. When they came around during the meal they refilled with thankfully free water. Be aware that you may need to specify you want normal water like most other places would serve you. Kind of sus.Vegetarian options: A few vegetarian options, mostly in the salads or vegetables. Make sure to ask the server as some options that seem vegetarian are cooked with animal fat/broth.Parking: Large lot and street parking, but a very busy area so may need to circle a few times.“

“Food was great , customer service and atmosphere was good , prices are a little high , simply because there’s no combos everything is priced separately for example if you get a burger the fries are separate and the drink is separate but I’m overall pleased and definitely will be “

“I had the flat iron steak. It was cooked perfectly and came with a delicous crispy potato croquet. Others I was with had the fish dinner and mushroom burger both meals came with perfectly cooked hand cut French fries. We all are looking forward to a return visit.“

“we will return. Brunch was good except for overseasoning. In the future, we will order without seasoning and add to the meal ourselves. The waitress said in the five years that she has been working here, not one person has complained. But, the steak was totally covered with a salt and pepper mixture.“

“The food is always consistent here, you know just what to expect. Great fries ! Always fresh ,hot and tasty. The Rueben is my goto but the patty melt and chicken sandwiches are great too. The wait staff is professional, polite and efficient .My only complaint is it gets a bit noisy when it's packed but to be expected in an old building such as this.“

“Went there for dinner for the first time and got the day's special: glazed salmon, rice pilaf, & steamed vegetables. Everything was perfectly seasoned and delicious,. The waiter was friendly and accommodating. I'd definitely go back and recommend it to my friends.“

“Great food. Menus need to be updated though. Food price showed was not what was charged, usually a dollar or so more per item. Not a huge deal as I would have gotten it anyways but would have been nice to know. Also please note in the menu you don’t serve lunch til 10 am. Also would have been “

“The dinner and ambience were very nice. We enjoyed everything till the end of the meal waiting for dessert which didn't come till we asked for our check after waiting over 20 minutes. While our server said our desserts were running late, there was no offer of coffee or other service. Again, pleased for the most part.“

“We go there a couple times a week.The steaks are awesome,the soups are always homemade,and the pizza is a thin,cauliflower crust pizza.Its a delicious pizza.Every week there is a different special as well as the regular menu.The owners Tom and Jessica,are locally grown.They are great to talk with.The bartenders know their alcohol,and are always helpful if you want to try something different.During the summer months there is a nicely landscaped,outdoor patio.Stop in and support your local business.Parking: You pull your car into the back and park between the white lines.Not sure what else there is tell.Ha.Kid-friendliness: There is a separate dining room and bar area.Who doesn’t like kids?They are always welcome.Wheelchair accessibility: Electric wheel chair elevator.“

I got a pineapple margarita, fried onion with fried breaded green beans in a citrus soy glaze, general tso breaded chicken sandwich and onion rings with a killer horseradish dipping sauce. Everything was great. Service was busy and working on closing the kitchen so they were a little distracted but still very friendly. Definitely recommend trying this place.“

“Phenomenal fish fry...and don't need to experience it just during Lent! The grouper sandwich and batter dipped filet is available all the time. And with tater tots and slaw, it doesn't get much better! Hoppin' busy Friday night.“

“Thomas, our server, was wonderful. Great recommendations and attention to our table. There was a lobster tail special with risotto that 2 in our party ordered. The other 2 ordered the filet mignon. We were able to make our own surf and turfs. Everything was delicious.“

“Went there for a fish fry.Had the fish & chips w/ fries coleslaw & cheese garlic bread.Fish & chips are very good.But they forgot to give us the garlic bread. Should have looked at the menu again before paying.Parking: Parking in front & back of building.“

“Met a friend for drinks and dinner here. Got there early but there was a bit of a wait after we got there. Very popular place! Or easier was very nice, very attentive. The menu looked awesome. I had the mussels. They also had live music that night so the vibe was very festive! Can't wait to go back!“

“This was my 1st time here. First Watch was super busy, so we were in luck seeing this next door without a wait. We were seated right away.We started with an appetizer of meatballs. The meatballs are normal in size. Not like some places that give you ginormous ones. Fine! It's 3 of them, and they come in a small cast iron skillet, swimming in marina sauce, covered in ricotta and some other cheeses, along with several pieces of garlic bread on the side. I'm picky about marina sauce. I don't like it chunky. This 1 was perfect. The right mix of flavor and not chunky. These meatballs were very, very good. I was very impressed. The bread was great, too. You can own my heart with good bread ? ?We both ordered burgers ? If you follow me, you know I like a good burger and a good steak. I got the original cheeseburger with bacon added, and my son got the double stack smash burger. My burger was so thick. I tried my best to eat half. It was delicious ? No complaints ? The burger gods are pleased.The fries were ok. Basic, regular fries ? Not bad, but definitely won't be the reason you return. I'll return because I'm sure there is more I would like to try in the future.“

“Service was slow. Food was awesome, like usual. Love this restaurant. Would love it more if it didn't take so long to get our order.Parking: MayfieldKid-friendliness: Have been eating here for years. Enough options that most kids should find something to eat. Free popcorn.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp to allow easy access into the building.“

“I discovered Rudy's Pub to be a charming establishment with its own unique character, and I can't wait to visit again. The food my son and I ordered was excellent, and the service was top-notch. I especially enjoyed the karaoke session , who made me feel right at home. If you're seeking a night out filled with fun and surrounded by good-hearted people, Rudy's Pub is the place to be! I'll definitely be returning.“

“Food is always good! But we go to be able to be taken care of by Lisa!!!....the most amazing server we have ever had! She never writes anything down...and never makes a mistake!!!(and we have taken parties as large as 16!!!) She's amazing...and very sweet!“

“This place is like home, it's busy, with consistent staff. I have been coming here for years, always seeing the same faces, it's nice. Food is excellent and it's worth the drive just for the desserts and coffee. I highly recommend you try this place. Excellent food, excellent service, wonderful staff.“

“We loved it! Comfortable and not stuffy ambience Friendly attentive and helpful service Our table ordered the following and loved every bit! Baked Brie enough to share 3-4 people. Completely melted and still warm. Loved the toast Brussel sprouts flatbread special app generous portion and amazing flavors Brussel sprout salad more like a slaw but very good. Enough to share Brisket mushroom stroganoff. Ohio City pasta. Well coated with a rich comforting sauce and tasty tender brisket! Strip steak on corn risotto with burratta cheese and small salad. Easy dish to skip a sep salad with this entree. All in one! The strip was a huge thick cut and a Kalamata olive tapenade. All of these flavors and I could not resist ordering this. It did not disappoint, worth every bit of the $48 price Shared a slice of house made carrot cake. Moist and classic And a berry crumble with ice cream. Cranberries I. This made for a tart twist. But the vanilla ice cream balanced it all out We loved 1815 for our first visit. We will def be back!“

“Our first time and it was wonderful! We stopped with our kiddos for a late lunch after some Sunday skyzone fun. It was also during football playoffs and we had never been so we weren't sure what to expect! ALL the servers were so friendly, everyone worked as a team to deliver a fantastic experience and great food! When we left our server told our kids to have a great week at school. I just thought that was so sweet. I can safely recommend this place for family fun as well as a great spot to belly up and watch Sunday football! A healthy blend! We'll definitely be going back and highly recommend!“

“Our favorite place to eat. It's like going to moms house for a meal. Always friendly and the food always hits. Oh, and the price is always right. We eat there at least once a week.Kid-friendliness: They love my son. Everyone has to pick him up to say HI. They treat him like a star.“

“Went here with my girlfriend. Have been here several times before. An issue we had this time that never was an issue before is that the gravy that came with the biscuits and gravy breakfast was runny instead of being thick. It did not look very appetizing. The Works is my go to and usually comes out well. The pomegranate brunch drink is amazing! Would definitely recommend.“

“On February 3rd (2024) four of us enjoyed a relaxing and delicious evening at Six Horses Tavern. I was searching for a cozy place and did not expect to find such a prize in a hotel. It is my understanding that the very talented couple running the tavern actually own the business within the hotel. Kudos to them! The service was gracious, the menu was refreshingly creative and delectable, and the setting lovely.Parking: Easy parking just in front of the hotel entrance.“

“Great place to meet a friend and enjoy a delicious meal. I got the grilled cheese breakfast sandwich with bacon. I have a gluten allergy and it was made with a gluten free bread. So Good!Dietary restrictions: They offer gluten free options.“

“We were treated to dinner at Lee’s. Staff was friendly and welcoming. We were greeted upon entering the restaurant. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the foods and drinks menu. She was able to make drink suggestions based on individual taste preferences. Wait time to receive our food was sufficient. The four star is only because the seasons hadn’t penetrated throughout the food I ordered. The season was very delicious. I had bowl that included shrimp, rice & broccoli with a garlic based season. Other items order were a shrimp basket, a sea Foid boil, fried fish and sweet potato fries and drinks. Leechee me alone and a voo doo hurricane. I didn’t personally order a but I was told these drinks were good.“

“The best pizza in this area!! We tried many pizzas in different restaurants but my boyfriend and I agreed that Abo's pizza was the best. Their crust/dough was so good and had an excellent flavor. It was relatively thin but could hold the toppings. We had one of their specialty pizzas, Mediterranean, together with a Caesar salad. Large pizza was more than enough to share for two people. Service was good, prices were reasonable but we thought $10 for a piece of cheese cake was a bit steep. Anyways, we will go back there for sure.Update:We went back & ordered Calamari, Margarita Pizza (BEST) , Linguine with Calamari, & Gnocchi. Ordering a bottle of wine for three of us worked perfectly ?“

“I have been to Winking Lizard ? in Columbus and was pleased, but this location, as far as the food, did not disappoint. My wings were sauced up and just cooked to perfection. Got a burger ? as well, and it was still good 2 days later. We had a party of 4, and 1 guy was new to the establishment, and he enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. The only problem was it took the food a while to come out, and we had a Cleveland Cavs game to go to. So , we were a little late because of that.“

“Everything was great as usual and the service was excellent. Served with a smile and a Santa hat! They gave me my vegan breakfast as usual. My veggie omelet with no eggs and no cheese hash browns. Well done and a plain toasted bagel. And my husband had his usual sunrise breakfast! I love this cute little place and the smell of toast that I get when I walk in. I also have another vegan option for breakfast which is the oatmeal with walnuts and strawberries. So it is definitely my go-to place for breakfast. As a person who chooses not to eat much meat. It is small and a little tight in there but that is part of its charm!Vegetarian options: I have never had a problem getting them to make something vegan for me. Which many people are vegetarian would eat. They have the veggie omelette so if you are a vegetarian and eats eggs and cheese that is always an option and they have oatmeal and waffles. All these things that have vegetarian to eat but they do not have vegan butter. But if you are a vegetarian that eats butter, you're fine. Also plenty of salads and I do believe they have a vegetarian patty or burger. And they have no problem. Sauteing vegetables for you but they have on hand. The sweet potato fries are great so there are less of options here for people who are vegetarian and even vegan.“

“My twin planned our 50th birthday gathering here. Everything about it was above 5 ⭐️ The food was consumed so quickly because it was soooo good!! ? Promise whenever I’m in Cleveland I need to stop and eat. The music, the bar ladies/ servers are the absolute BEST. You can enjoy the DJ and still have a conversation with friends or your date!!! Real good grown vibes! We stayed after to watch the game because the Vibe was everything and the tvs were easy to see everywhere!!!“

“My wife and I drove by on our way to REI. The place looked cool so we decided to stop on the way home for lunch. We got there right after they opened and we were greeted right away. The place was super clean and well put together. We sat at the bar for convenience. The owners “2 brothers” were there and helped us as soon as we sat. The lunch menu was good and had the right amount of choices. We also looked at the dinner menu and it looked amazing! Definitely heavy on fresh fish dishes. We ended up ordering the Breakfast Burger and the brussels sprouts. The burger was made fresh with farm raised beef. 1/2 lbs patty not a tiny burger. The bun was soft and flaky. It can with hash brown potatoes which were fried perfectly. The brussels sprouts were also delicious. It was a good serving too considering it was just an appetizer. My wife had a handmade margarita which she said it was great and I had two craft beers. I’d say it was a great experience and we will make the trip back for dinner soon.“

“It’s a cozy sports bar in a lively area of town. The food is great, and at a decent price. Th staff are pleasant and inviting, plus you’ll often find the owner himself working alongside the staff. It may not be the flashiest, but I can’t think of many places as welcoming as this!“

“One of the better Pizza places in Cleveland. Great parking with Handicap access. They also have Fish selections for lent. I am definitely going back for anyone pie soon!Vegetarian options: There were vegetarian selections. Especially with the pizzas.Parking: Lots of parking in the back, and wheelchair win the front.Kid-friendliness: I saw several families with children. I didn’tPay attention as to a child’s selection on the menu, but what kid doesn’t love pizza?Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair access available.“

“Frequent visitorShowed up for my reservation with the family for a birthday dinner. Table was ready within 5 minutes. Food and service was amazing and you notch as always. Only reason for the 4 star atmosphere is because of the table was in the bar area. Which was understandably a bit more boisterous than the other areas of the resteraunt. Next time I will request a table in one of the other areas is all.As always top notch work by all staff from entering to leaving the resteraunt. Until next time.“
