Great place! Classy, romantic type lounge! Definitely would be a nice place for a first or second date! Fancy cocktails and delicious reasonably priced food options!

Literally the most underrated restaurant in CLE!!!! If there are bad reviews, I would say it is because of service, as they have not been busy enough to justify hiring a wait staff, so please be patient/understanding if you ho. Let's pop this place off and keep them in business!!! LGBTQY+ friendly, best apps, best environment in CLE!!!!!!!!

Went here for dinner and decided to have a drink as well. I found everything to be quite delicious, and the martini was expensive, but worth it with how strong it was. The service is slower than you might typically expect when going out to eat these days, but seeing as we were not in a hurry we didn't mind.
People have demanded that casual dining become very fast, but if the food is good the wait is worth it. That's certainly the case here. The staff was very nice and patient, you can tell they care a lot about what they're presenting.
We had the squash blossoms, which were incredible! They were out of a few items we wanted to try, like Brussel sprouts, but you can imagine that if that is the case, they must put a lot of focus on quality ingredients.
I'd recommend going here if you're looking for really great food and don't have tentative plans for after dinner. Oh, and it wouldn't hurt to also make well over minimum wage.

I always hear great things about this place, so I decided to check it out! I guess my expectations were a little too high.I emailed the owner about reservations & he confirmed them. I showed up & the bartender had no idea about my reservation. It turned out okay because there was an empty table for us, but it was still kind of annoying.I was expecting a more elegant type of atmosphere, but it was very much a dive bar type of atmosphere. Again, not a big deal, just was a surprise!Being a vegetarian is always a risk coming to a tapas place, but it seemed like there would be enough, luckily I’m not picky! The menu was mislabeled on several of the dietary restriction, so just beware!My partner (not a vegetarian) got wings and enjoyed them. We also got the corn fritters, which I did NOT care for at all (interesting bc I like most food!). The dip trio was very good, but VERY small portions. My minestrone soup was good, but nothing special. The flatbread was good. I liked the cheese on it! The cheesecake was good. I liked the jam around it.The service was extremely slow and our water cups remained empty for most of our experience.Overall, I won’t be back & don’t recommend !

Wonderful evening!Everything was excellent from drinks to dessert. Save room for desserts!Thank you Tony and Ray!We can't wait to return.
A group of 5 ex Metro residents go together to eat here last night. First time for all. In the old Theos which I have some great memories of. Ample parking in the back with an entrance there. Great shareable plates including dates and stuffed peppers(my favorite). Dinners were excellent including my scallops over risotto and cod, steak and sirloin. Going to come back when they have the ossobuco going. Desserts 'ok' but not outstanding - changes weekly though. Staff excellent. One was a sommelier and couple of us left with some wine. Will be back. It wasn't busy but they don't have that many tables even tho the restaurant is a good size. It's dominated by a very large square bar area in the middle of the restaurant that could accomodate about 20 people(guess).
