About Don's Lighthouse Grille

Don's Lighthouse Grille is a seafood restaurant in Cleveland that provides a delightful dining experience. Upon arrival, guests are warmly greeted by the friendly staff, like Terry, who guides them to their table and ensures attentive service throughout the meal.

The menu boasts an impressive selection, including starters like the tender and flavorful Prince Edward Island mussels, served with warm, rustic bread for dipping. Diners can also enjoy a variety of entrees, such as the seared scallops, which are cooked to perfection and accompanied by a savory mushroom risotto, as well as the pretzel-encrusted walleye, featuring a slightly crunchy coating and hot, tender fish, complemented by real mashed potatoes and a grilled corn kernel medley. The scallops are considered top notch, and the risotto is very flavorful, though a bit thick for some tastes. The pretzel breading on the walleye is really good, but some may not order the fish again.

Guests recently enjoyed the happy hour bar area, where the food and drinks were very good. One ordered the hamburger with fries and a tequila sunrise cocktail. Though service was a little slow due to being short staffed, they expressed a willingness to return.

The restaurant also offers an atmosphere suitable for celebrations, with guests often celebrating anniversaries. The chef's family-style entrees add a thoughtful touch, and even with the generous portions, diners may find room for dessert, like the popular key lime sorbet. A first-time visitor praised the food’s appearance and taste, noting the fantastic service and upscale casual atmosphere. The menu also includes appetizers such as calamari and shrimp cocktail, and desserts like apple pie crumble with vanilla ice cream.

Overall, Don's Lighthouse Grille provides a delightful seafood-focused dining experience, with excellent food, outstanding service, and a warm ambiance, making it a highly recommended destination for those in the Cleveland area.
