“I got stuck in the snow a little while ago and this gentleman helped me out little do I know it was the head chef for this restaurant. I was walking home from the science center and it got freezing so I ducked into there. They gave me bread and tea and water and it's really nice and I'm gonna get a pizza from there. The ambiance is really pretty and everyone is super nice“

“4 of us visited Bruno’s Sunday for dinner with a 6:45 reservation. Greeted immediately upon walking in. Bar area seats abt 10-15 and reservations can be made for bar seating as well! Within a minute of being seated our server had our drink order and returned with them. Appetizers ordered: Hot sausage stuffed peppers These weee absolutely awesome. Served with peppers and onions with a light marinara. Menu says “spicy”; they are medium hot but amazing flavor Artichoke The couple with us ordered these ?breadcrumb” battered and fried portion. Also sauced in hous made marinara. Entrees ordered: chicken parm, spaghetti marinara, scallops and pasta. All were tremendous! Our server Martha was spot on with everything, meal was very nicely paced. I spoke with the gentleman in charge to compliment him on his food and staff. This was our first visit but definitely not our last! This is a definite 10/10.“

“Please come here. So yummy and the workers are incredible <3“

“Came for a birthday party and can't say I'd be back. There were several problems. First off, I waited 40 minutes for a coke. Seems like everyone else got their alcohol though which also had a very long wait. The server Cici was awful to say the least. She couldn't get anything right. My husband ordered the rib dinner and i had the two meats and two sides (brisket and ribs). The ribs were very good, I would definitely order them again if I ever came back. But the brisket was absolutely awful. The toughest, driest piece of meat I've ever bitten, tasteless with no bark whatsoever. They were out of rib tips which I was honestly disappointed about but the ribs were bomb. They were moist yet tender cooked to perfection. The macaroni and cheese *and believe me I don't eat everybody's* was really really good. The greens had too much vinegar but were still enjoyable. The baked beans (Fire whoever made them immediately) literally took a can of bushes and added green peppers and onion. I ordered my 2 year old a smoked wing appetizer and some fries. WE GOT MY 2 YEAR OLDS FOOD AS WE WERE PACKING UP OURS, He literally ate my whole plate because he had no food. I ordered the garlic parm on the side and of course when they brought his wings it was covered in garlic parm. The fries were so full of salt they weren't edible but I got over that quickly. Still being very very generous I told the waitress I would be paying for my friend for his birthday. She didn't just charge my card for my best friends meal, but for everyone else at the table almost 300$. How do you make that kind of mistake. I believe it was intentional. After that I just ran out of there. The service however bad, still didn't overshadow that the food was really good. I just wouldn't order the brisket agian and definitely tell them no salt on your fries“

“Fantastic food and service!“

“Fantastic Soba noodles (cold dish)! Great staff (Thank you, Shannon),very nice atmosphere. A wonderful night out with the Mrs. was made extra special. Can’t wait to go back.“

“The food was delicious! We split the fried green tomatoes with street corn toppings as our appetizer, with some espresso martinis and we both ordered a chicken sandwich. Plenty of food between the two of us and would definitely come back for more.“

“Highly recommend! Delicious Pizza and great options if you don’t feel like pizza. Try their wings or cheesy fries! Yumm. Fast and good service as well!“

“Yummy latte. Got the spiced coconut latte with oat milk. Very helpful and friendly staff. Husband got blood moon tea and it was delicious too.“

“We absolutely loved this venue. It was such a charming and unique place to have our wedding. Shannon, Kat, and the entire Great Lakes Brewery staff exceeded our expectations and helped make our special day complete. It was our first there at the venue for an event and we were completely blown away as were all of our guests. I would highly recommend to anyone considering a venue in the Cleveland area. - David & Andrea“

“We ordered for our company Christmas lunch. All the employees raved on how good everything was. The owner and his employees were a pleasure to work with. The food was delivered on time and hot. Thank you Bronco's Western Ribs. I am sure we will be ordering again in the future.“

“Many fun games& the good was delicious“

“My husband and daughter visited for the 1st time yesterday and I benefited with a box of baked good they brought back! The best cookies and brownies we have gotten yet! I cannot wait to return and try a sandwich! My husband said the sandwiches looked amazing!!!“

“Jessica was the best and we will come back for her“

“I was recently given a recommendation to try The Standard, and I’m very glad I took it.

As someone who loves good food, finding a hidden gem in a city you already enjoy visiting is always a treat. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between upscale and welcoming. I ended up sitting on the patio, which made for a fantastic evening.

Nicole was my server, and she was outstanding. Friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable without ever being overbearing. She took the time to answer questions about the menu and made several recommendations that absolutely elevated the experience. Her suggestion to start with the octopus appetizer was spot on. It was one of the best appetizers I’ve had in a very long time.

For the main course, I ordered the hanger steak with chimichurri, and it was exceptional. Perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and one of those meals that has you planning your next visit before you’ve even finished the first one.

What really stood out was how well everything came together. Great atmosphere, incredible food, and service that genuinely made the experience memorable. Nicole did an excellent job, and her recommendations were a big part of what made the evening so enjoyable.

Five stars hardly feels adequate. The Standard delivered one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time, and I’ll absolutely be back.“

“We love the nut free bakery items. They are delicious, convenient and safe for my child with peanut/tree nut allergies.“

“A great place to grab a slice or two for a good lunch! All pizzas include some fresh basil slices and are finished with grated cheese

I tried out 3 pizzas, the sauce vodka on the vodka pizza wasn’t as spicy as I would have wanted but both it and the margarita were very good! But the real star of the show was the white pizza. The ricotta is wonderful and the honey is applied juuuust right as to not overpower any of the great tastes.

Would recommend swinging by!“

“Came in from out of town and they were soooo welcoming!! Made us feel right at home and remembered us when we came in every morning. Gave us some yummy sweets for the road. Can’t recommend enough. Will be back here for sure!! 🩷🩷🩷“

“Very accommodating and great food!“

“Great service and great food“

“I LOVE this family owned business in Ohio City! The young lady at the counter encouraged me to try their baba (because I really hate it everywhere else I’ve had it) and it was INCREDIBLE. Everything on this menu is fresh, flavorful and intentional - there’s no way to go wrong.“

“it was a beautiful day, line moved fast , service was very friendly, 2 banana splits, they are 👍 ,hot fudge sundae, amazing, and the best for last, the brownie fudge sundae, very good, but rich!! but a treat once a year so great, their milkshakes are awesome and amazing, no matter what kind you get.. and their ice cream is great and well worth the trip!! btw, we went on Father's day, my dad loved it!! enjoy your visit at honey hut when y go..!!! we did, thank you so much honey hut .“

“If I had to pick the top 5 coffees I’ve ever drank in my life I would have never thought that a coffee from MGK’s coffee house would be my #2! The place was such a cute place to stop on our road trip and I was pleasantly surprised but how good the coffee was and the atmosphere of the place!“

“Stopped here after visiting A Christmas Story House, and we were not disappointed! The food was excellent and great portion sizes. The poke bowls, ramen bowl, wonton soup, and house brew fruity teas were the best we have ever had. We will definitely stop here again when we are in town.“

“The coffee and service were great, but unfortunately the baked goods were not. My son and I each got a lemon poppyseed scone, and they had a strange taste. They didn't really taste like lemon at all, and I couldn't eat it. We took our order to go or I would have said something. I would go back for the coffee and atmosphere.“

“I live about 90 min from Cleveland, and my 8 year old has been begging me to take him somewhere to try bubble tea for weeks now. We were in Cleveland for the night, and Balance was close to where we were staying so I decided to give it a try. The girl working at the counter was AMAZING! She was so helpful and super interactive with my son, literally mirroring his excitement. I know this is something small, but I have worked in the service industry and I know how infrequent it is to get positive feedback. I’m sorry I didn’t catch the girl’s name (she was tall with long blonde hair), but she was fantastic and really made us feel welcome. The restaurant was also super clean and all the employees were working hard.“

“We were in Cleveland on Friday, coming from Milwaukee area. Our server, AJ was outstanding! He was very welcoming, fun to be around, & gave us great service. Steaks were great too. We all felt very worth our stop, especially be made to feel right at home by AJ.“

“We had our daughter’s graduation party on 5/11/24. They made our experience wonderful for our party of 15. The food, beer and drinks were great! The table by the wall was perfect for our food to be set up and at 4:30, we could chat and it wasn’t noisy at all. Thank you to your staff for allowing is to create a beautiful memory!“

“First time trying their pizza and salads. Delicious food and friendly staff!“

“Great food great cocktails and great service! Love Chef Chris’s specials !“

“Every dish I’ve tried here has been full of flavor and care. The kitchen clearly values quality and tradition. The Great Indian Kitchen adds real value to Cleveland’s food scene. Late-night hours make it even more appealing. Highly enjoyable dining experience.“

“Sabrina had her first visit today. She was welcomed. The staff was great in monitoring the dogs at the park. The food and drink was great too! Can’t wait to celebrate Sabrina’s birthday in August and will definitely be back! It’s worth the drive from Toledo, Ohio. Jan Harmon“
