Honestly...Its been nice to find an affordable, local bar, to just go into and not have to worry about anything negative ruining the mood. If the Daze sauce is as amazing as it was under the original owners, I have to assume nothing but the best for this itteration.“

“(Last visited September 20, 2023.) Hanging out in Cleveland, OH on business and it's #WingWednesday! So I did some searching on Yelp to see who's got the best in the area! A place called Characters Bar & Grill kept coming up. So here's how things went!\n\nAtmosphere/Appearance: This place is like... at the EDGE of Cleveland's city limits. Lol. Brookpark Road or something. Once I pulled up it just felt like a nice, neighborhood spot! It does have a private parking lot, big outdoor section (where we sat) and plenty of space on the inside. It's a traditional setup. TVs everywhere, random swag and decor all throughout, plenty of high-top tables for seating and a big bar rail. The energy was lively and the music was so random. Lol. If you've been, you know what I mean.\n\nService: I can't remember the name of who took care of us, but she was funny, sweet and just made sure we had everything that we needed. \n\nFood: While here I was able to try a few wings, so let's begin. First up were the Mike's Sweet Island Heat. For the record, if you order 10 wings, you can split them into 2-5s for an extra $1.00 if you want separate flavors. Also, on the menu there are 3 "types" of sauces that they offer. The first kind are Buffalo based sauces, the 2nd are barbecue based sauces and the last is "other". Lol. Anyway, these looked amazing, were super saucy and were a decent, seemingly normal size. I got lots of good fruity notes and aromatics as I put the wing to my nose. After tasting the flavors carried through with a bold, fruity, rich flavor. There was good spice and it felt like a chipotle based spice. It was a unique flavor for sure that I hadn't tasted before. Next up was Lenny's Honey Sriracha Teriyaki which is a mouthful of a name, but the flavors showed up! It was a good teriyaki base with citrusy lemon flavors that actually made my lips pucker just a bit. These weren't spicy at all, but it was missing something, I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Next up was Chipotle which I was lead to believe would be the hottest sauce on the menu based on it's placement on the menu, but I was wrong. This one did have some GOOD heat to it. The ingredients were balanced very well that created very bold, rich, hearty, chipotle flavors. I really liked this one. Next up were the Mild Buffalo. These were super saucy, juicy and had a very straightforward traditional Buffalo flavor that had some excellent flavor. The bleu cheese to go with these was a creamy, mild sauce that would cool your mouth down if you can't handle the spice. Next up was the XXX Buffalo which is actually the hottest sauce on the menu. The sauce was a bit watery which is a dead giveaway that it wouldn't be as spicy as it claims to be. It was still delicious, but the spice took a while to kick in, but it's nothing to write home about. It was like a kicked up Buffalo.\n\nValue: It's a sports bar, so the food won't be terrible expensive. I was there on Wednesday and wings were $1.00 each. Not bad at all considering how expensive I've see some. They even had $5.00 steaks this night, but I can only imagine them being a Salisbury steak or something. Lol.\n\nIn conclusion, I had a blast here. The food was great, the people are awesome, I felt welcomed and it just felt like a good place to hang out! I look forward to returning and trying some more flavors!“

The cook offers great twists on regular dishes and the prices are reasonable. Check the place out!! Well worth the stop!!! Be sure to say hi to Moose if he's there when you stop.“

“Bar 23 is a nice place with friendly people. The owner had recently a lot of work into it with a full kitchen, and nice bathrooms. The kitchen is not ready yet, and I can't wait until it is. I'm sure the menu will be good, and prepared well.“

“Very friendly staff, great food and chill atmosphere!! The fish platter is amazing and the steak is way better than I’d anticipated! Servers were very prompt and polite! Highly recommend!“

“Great bar food, crispy wings, juicy burgers and a great selection of beers on tap (43 when I visited). It's barside ordering and there.can be a.wait to order when busy. Decor is good too with large displays of bottles , taps, and local bobbleheads. It's a little on the pricy side but in line with what you would pay at other downtown establishments. Overall, I think it's a.geat place to stop before or after a Cleveland game for alcohol and grub.“

“I have never not had a great experience here! The best burger around, hands down and their fresh-cut fries are to die for! Today, I had my husband pick me up their classic burger with provolone cheese and it was still just as super warm when he brought it to me at work as if I were to have eaten it there! The staff is always super friendly and pleasant whether dining in or placing an order over the phone! HIGHLY recommend!!!“

“I came back home for my grandmother's funeral and we went to Bobby De's Gateway to relax after the viewing. The food was amazing the cook made a sauce to die for he made me truly happy the women at the bar was amazing, the music was old school and I loved it. This place get 2 thumbs up.“

“I ordered a $12 corn beef I asked for the bread to be toasted. She tried to charge me more because she said that's a ruben just for you to toast the bread OK. I went inside I ordered a fry it was a handful of fries for $3. Tell me why I get to my car to eat my sandwich and my sandwich is cold. The cheese was not melted and the meat was room temp.And they were rude. I am never going back.“

“nothing but good times here and always have lost of love in the grown folks atmosphere“

“Every time we go to the B and G we feel like family. The food is unbelievable, atmosphere relaxed, and drinks affordable. We love the B and G so much we came here after our wedding, for the after party and always try to take friends from out of town. There’s something special about this place, it feels like the true heart of Cleveland. My favorite bar in the city.“

“It may surprise you but I think this place has one of the best burgers in Cleveland. The burger here is always fantastic and perfectly cooked. I dream about their kalamata olive aioli, it is the perfect addition to their burger and separates it from other restaurants.“

“Sticks Pub & Grille is a fantastic spot for a quick bite for the course and the range! Amy is hands down the best server—friendly, attentive, and always makes us feel welcome. My children can’t get enough of the Lays chips; they absolutely love them. We always have a great experience here. Highly recommend!“

“So, long story short, don't expect any kind of service from the bartender if you come on a Saturday evening. I started not to say anything but after a lot of thought I felt like this needs to be said. My wife and I have visited this place on several occasions usually during the week and had great service from Maggie. However this past Saturday was a complete disaster. We came in to have a burger and beer and after arriving and sitting at a table in the bar area we waited.......and waited ........ and waited. Finally after sitting and watching the bartender who we later learned was Kate socializing with what appears to be her friends for almost 15 minutes we finally flagged a guy walking by asking him if there was a waitress for this area. He stopped immediately and apologized asking what we wanted to drink and then proceeded to go behind the bar and grab our drinks himself. Coming back he apologized and asked if we wanted something to eat and took our order. Our food was later brought out by someone else and the whole time the bartender continued to socialize with the two or three people at the bar that appeared to be friends. Only after our food was brought out did she finally decide to tear herself away from her social group and grace her with her presence, and even this interaction seemed to be a bother to her. Guess I made a long story longer. Point is the bartender Kate is ok if you're in her social group. If you're not forget about getting any kind of service from her.“

“Might just be a best kept secret in Parma. Immediately when entering, I was greeted with a hello from the bartender! The drinks were good, the service was good, friendly people to talk to and engage with. It was a good night. Thank you Parma Pit Stop.“

“First time there.. me and hubby celebrating our 12 years anniversary we arrived at the end of the band playing there last song inwhich they sounded good,then the DJ started playing while they were packing up and the DJ was ? and it was a party going on with plenty of food for whoever wanted some we had a wonderful time and would visit here again!!“

“Nice small bar/restaurant with amazing burgers it was my 1st time there and I felt at home immediately my bartender was Sara/Sarah and she's absolutely amazing if im ever back in that area thats definitely the place I'm going to go.“
