“Chicken and shrimp were over cooked and dry. Also they charge almost 5.00 extra to use a credit card and a 18 tip is added to the end of the bill. They don't tell you so watch out you don't double tip.“

“Wonderful food! Friendly atmosphere“

“I've only been there twice, but both times the staff was awesome and the food was amazing!!“

“The food was amazing. We got there right after opening and it was very quiet, everything was fresh. Our waiter didn't write a single thing down and never missed anything anyways, the starters (Charcuteria and fish dip) were incredible, and our mains (lamb, cod, and chicken) were some of the best flavors were ever experienced. The lamb fell apart with delicious soft ess, so did the cod, and the chicken was beautifully moist with a bold sauce. Definitely recommended for wonderful ambience and top tier foods.“

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 is my first time here I was really confused at first what a call things like a bowl of burrito but he was very helpful and then when I got to the front, they said since it was my first time, but it’s on I’ve never had a place do that before it honestly made me feel really good And I love the food after I ate it I would love to come back“

“We went to some kind of secret seller.\nIn the basement , and it was so christmassy , spirits , great decorations , and I like how they honored all their staff by putting their names up with christmas decorations.
Erica was our server and I kept watching her was so impressed with ease.She was able to handle by herself.Fifty people and never showed any fear and was great and fast service.
I also enjoy talking to other personnel that worked at different sections of the brewery and not even at that location. They still came to support the christmas get together.“

“Fantastic food and service!“

“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.“

“Many fun games& the good was delicious“

“Always a great variety of ice cream! The toasted pistachio in a waffle cone is absolutely delicious! There's handicapped parking, but the door is not automatic, so I had to wait for someone to come along who was willing to open the door for me. The seating was nice, and the tables looked clean. The ice cream is a bit pricey but is very delicious.“

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

“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.“

“Great food,friendly waitress,great service ,differently come back“

“Wonderful food very tasty.“

“Amazing little shop with the absolute BEST flavors, & this coming from a girlie who likes odd flavors as well as traditional. The Orange Dream is to die for yumm, the Amaretto Cherry is an almond lovers paradise & the Cotton Candy with some marshmallow & sprinkles made me feel like a kid again! I’m about to try their Lavender Dream tonight and am crossing my fingers it’s as good as another I had when I was living in NC. I just wish they had a Matcha flavor (that’s not too sweet!)☺️💚🍵“

“Bookhouse is an absolute gem. Amazing beers in a variety of interesting styles, friendly & attentive bartenders, and a nice relaxing environment. You'll feel welcome no matter who you are. Ask the bartenders about the history of the building if you're a history buff, it's extremely cool and unique. If you're like me and enjoy going out for a beer, but want to be somewhere you can have a conversation without sports or other TV blaring at you, this is the place to be!“

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

“First time here and it's amazing. Very clean and calm environment. I will definitely be back.“

“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!“

“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!!!“

“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!“

“📍 Deanatella’s Italian Deli – Valley View, OH 🧀🍕🥖 A true hidden gem that screams classic Italian deli the second you walk in. If you can name the deli meat, trust us—they’ve got it. Shelves packed, fridges loaded, and a full lineup of Coke products to wash it all down. We stop here 2–3 times a month, and for good reason. The food never misses. Here's what we had today: 🍕 Pepperoni Pizza – 8.1/10 Hot, fresh, and loaded with flavor. A crustless, center-cut slice of cheesy joy. No edge, no problem—it hits hard where it counts. 🍕 Sausage Pizza – 8.4/10 Same amazing base, but the sausage takes it up a notch. Big, juicy chunks of sausage packed with flavor. Definitely the MVP slice today. 🌶️ Mild Pepper Sub – 9.2/10 This one’s my go-to. Not super spicy, but absolutely loaded with flavor. The combo of peppers, melty cheese, and rich sauce makes for one giant, unforgettable sandwich. Perfect from the first bite to the last. The staff? Always friendly. The vibes? All Italian. If you’re anywhere near Cleveland, do yourself a favor and stop by Deanatella’s. You’ll thank yourself later. 🍽️ Two food lovers, one page—justifying our epic food binges, one bite at a time. Follow along at @joeandjrkfoodreviews for mouthwatering meals, honest scores, and the best hidden gems you need to try. Come hungry.“

“Honestly the best biscuits I’ve ever had. It is deeply upsetting that they are only available on weekends as these biscuits have substantially improved my life. Biscuits 12/10, availability and hours 4/10. Please stay open longer so I can eat more biscuits.“
