Restaurants in Lakewood

“I love it here. The food is amazing and the staff is so friendly.”

“My favorite place in Cleveland. 😍. Plus they have my favorite burger and fries with roasted garlic 🤤🤤🤤”

“It’s impossible to say how good it is there. The food is always top notch. Any item on the menu is executed with care and technical skill. The service is always fantastic. A neurologist friend took me here many years ago as a graduation celebration from nursing school. I’ve been coming back ever since, and I’ve never had a disappointment for a night or meal. It’s always our go to on big date nights for the orchestra or concerts. The food is served quickly so you can get on with your night. Great work tonight guys, the meal was exceptional. With love-”

“Explored the creative cocktail menu and everything was excellent. Service was attentive.”

“What a treat! Anytime I have been to Pier W I feel spoiled. Took my mom and her 3 friends for her 89th Birthday and they all loved it!! We will definitely be back for her 90th! Thank you.”

“Harlow’s Pizza is a standout in Lakewood for anyone who values fresh, high-quality food served quickly without compromising flavor. The pizzas are made with care, and the freshness of the ingredients really shines through. I especially appreciate their vegan-friendly options, with the vegan Caesar dressing being a thoughtful and delicious touch that shows they care about accommodating all guests. The staff are attentive and considerate, making the experience feel welcoming and genuine. Beyond the pizza, Harlow’s offers non-alcoholic choices like fresh juices make the dining experience feel balanced and refreshing. Overall, Harlow’s combines quality, speed, and thoughtfulness in a way that makes it one of Lakewood’s best spots for pizza lovers — vegan or not!!!

Thank you Harlows!
Marty and Amanda :)”

“This place is so adorable. I had the lemon and sugar crepe and added strawberries.. 🤌🏼 soo good. Definitely would recommend!”

“Amazing food, service and atmosphere! We started with fresh bread - with marinated red peppers, olives, artichokes and charcuterie. It was a party of six celebrating a birthday and we enjoyed a few glasses of wine and cocktails. We shared a chorizo Mac & cheese, sliders, flatbread and pork belly. Every dish was excellent. Highly recommend for a night out.”

“Had a wonderful meal with family excellent view of the Lake. We will be back”

“My friend and I went there last night for my birthday. The food was amazing!! Everything we ordered was just delicious. Meals were paced out perfectly in between. All the plates were a good portion for the shareable experience. We ordered first was the tuna crostini and the lamb hummus. Both by far amazing! The hummus was the best hummus I have ever had!! (Side note. The chef came over and told us that there is this wrap on HH during the week, we will def be back for it!) Second was the zucchini plate on top of a ricotta puree. Amazing! Not sure how he cooked it, but it was crisp and delightful! Then we had this fried Idaho potato! 🥔 literally the biggest potato I have ever seen. Topped with a feta, chives and creme fraise, sided with a homemade sriracha. Just yum!!! Then finally, aged and cooked to perfection, a hangar steak. 🥩 sliced for sharing with a salad on the side. It was amazing! The chef did a great job on presentations, food, and that steak is to die for! Also didn’t mention on yummy the cocktail menu is!!! 5/5 would visit again to try more items! I might even order that hummus tonight again for takeout! 🫶🫶🫶”

“I love the pizza and I would go back. I just wish there was more accessible parking Close to the restaurant but the pizza and I will definitely come in again #Theirpizziaisawesome”

“Food was good, wine delicious. Server was short with us and matter of fact. Restaurant is very small but pleasant. However, when we went to order an entre later in our dinner service we were told they couldn't because they needed the table in an hour. We decided not to stay for dessert.”

“My friends and I Love Vintage India! We always order so much food because it's all so good we can never just pick ONE thing. My FAVOURITE dish is the Malai Kafta, and the banghain bartha. I highly recommend the rasmalai, the samosas, the lassi.... there is not a single thing on this menu that will disappoint you. Authentic, Family-owned business in the heart of Lakewood.

I will definitely eat there again.”

“I never really understood Cleveland being know for Pierogies & corned beef. But after having pierogies from Immigrant Son Brewery I understand. The staff made me feel welcomed & attentive to servicing, adult beverages & food amazing.”

“First time having real Indian food and I was blown away. The hot had flavor, not just heat. So many sauces and chutneys, they even have an all you can eat lunch buffet daily that I’m so coming back for. Small restaurant but what charm the atmosphere had. 18 years in business and I can see why.”

“Great selection of teas & accessories. Really loving the 2 teas we got as well as the recommendation for each. Glad we made the drive from Cle Hts after having one of their teas in a restaurant.”

“Sooooo Good!!!! Love this place”

“amazing!!!! the espresso is such an amazing blend, it isnt acidic at all. the goat cheese rosemary scone is divine I cannot wait to go again!!! amazing flavor options and the spring drink creations are unique and delicious! the environment of the place is gorgeous”

“Great cookies with unique flavors. Always love the ones with the pat of butter on top! These are the type of cookies you bring to a party and you buy their little cookie cutter and it cuts them in like six pieces I think. Then everyone gets to try a little wedge of all the different flavors and it's fantastic and fun!”

“The monkey bread is a favorite treat around here, though I prefer the cinnamon buns and the sourdough. The peasant loaf is a terrific stew supplement, and there's no better sandwich than one with the butter top or sourdough. One of my favorite places when making a special dinner.”

“FANTASTIC LIL SPOT I ORDERED AVOCADO TOAST AND CAMPFIRE CHIA ☕ DEFINITELY RECOMMEND...LUV THE VIBE”

“I have become a regular here ever since I tried this place in the summer. Their drip coffee is amazing. The food is so good too and never disappoints! My favorite thing to get is the chia pudding. The granola is incredible on it. 🤤 The presentation is great too. All their food is plated so nicely.”

“Cannot get over what an amazing job KB Confections did with bringing my vision to life! Not only did it look pretty but tasted AMMAZING! 12/10 recommend! The cupcakes were just as delicious too 😍”

Joseph was a great host, bartender and server and over all the bomb!!!!
Food was amazing atmosphere clean as usual!!!”

“Food was very good coffee is amazing first time”

“awesome Newton Latte! love the environment and the staff is so friendly!”

“We enjoyed the space and community. The venue was a bit understaffed with just one hard working bartender running food up and down stairs while also serving drinks and food to the entire rooftop, so there were some extended wait times.”

“very nice spot with good coffee, good service, and a very nice atmosphere.”

“Good food and service! Thanks Adele!”

“And great menu, fantastic staff!”

“Corn beef was phenominal!”

“Nothing compares to Angelo’s”

“Great spot! great owners. shows always sound good here and sound guys and bartenders take pride in the job they are doing and care about patrons.”

“Best spinach pie in NEO. Truly exceptional; fresh and heavy with spinach. An exceptional value at $4. The zatar bread is also excellent. I’m grateful for the plant based options.”

“Wow. This place was recommended to us as my husband and I were looking for the perfect cheeseburger for our wedding anniversary. The staff in the kitchen … you guys are so amazing, warm and gracious. We will be back. The Tinman! That was one extraordinary burger. And the fries, chicken tenders are out of this world with all those sauces. Can’t thank you enough. Also, the interior vibe and feel of the place is wonderful. A MUST if you’re in Cleveland or visiting. ❤️”

“Had such a great time at Birdietown! Charlie, at the front, greeted us right away and was super friendly the whole time. He kept checking in and made sure our drinks came out quickly. Great service and atmosphere. Definitely coming back!”

“I wish I could say I recommend this place because it was a tradition to go here at Easter time and grab chocolate crosses and bunnies. After leaving the store this weekend with such a small amount of different chocolates for 33.00 dollars I was so disappointed. I shared the photo and price with a couple friends and even they were shocked. It's really sad how extremely high a small amount is. I just wish the customer was kept in mind a little more when these prices get so hicked up. There was a second pretzel candy bar of no charge (BOGO) not pictured.”

“Best birria tacos I've ever had, and they honored my extra cheese request too!”

“Thai Thai is our go-to local restaurant, and the welcoming staff and delicious food never fail us.”

“This was our first time ordering from tomori’s. Wings, pizza and pasta were all fantastic! We will be back.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sacred Waters Kava Bar is absolutely magical. It’s full of creatives, good energy, and amazing handcrafted drinks. Everyone here is so friendly, and Tempest and Spencer are incredibly knowledgeable about all things kava and ethnobotanical blends. The vibe is cozy, chill, and welcoming. It's the perfect spot if you want a bar atmosphere without the negative effects of alcohol. Easy parking, great company, and seriously the best kava with cacao (I always get mine with oat milk!). It’s my favorite! If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out on one of the best hidden gems in the CLE area. 🌿✨”

“was there last Saturday had the best fish fry n pierogi dinner... excellent server and the food was not greasy at all ..I had haddock and pierogi's..the coleslaw was very fresh n tasty as well...I highly recommend the fish fry!! definitely 5 stars*”

“I LOVE this pub. Perfect atmosphere, super friendly staff AND patrons. The draft is YUMMY 😋 A pub lover’s dream!! And the owners are pretty darn cool too😎♥️😘”

“Shout out to my girl Karla for leaving the sweetest note about my cheese request (lol) and labeling the halves of our sandwich. Definitely went above and beyond for the girlies.”

“First time at Naomi’s and we’ll be back. We ordered the rolls, fried green tomatoes, perch, chicken and catfish with sides of collards, mac n cheese and sweet potatoes. Prices seemed high but it was because the serving sizes are huge! Definitely expect to take food home. Everything we ordered was delicious and freshly prepared. Service was great!”

“We love this place! Such a great neighborhood atmosphere! When you want to try different beers - this should the place. You’re in control, and that’s an awesome concept!”

“Always a great time! Awesome atmosphere and extensive selection of beers, the variety of food trucks is certainly enticing. Something for every palate, 😋”

“I went to Sauced tonight an hour before they closed. I was served by Alyssa (blue hair) and she was literally so accommodating, nice and overall so helpful. The service was 10/10! I will be back! �”

“I really enjoyed this bar. It was a great place to have a couple of beers during happy hour for quite a cheap price.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating also. They gave me a few good recommendations on good food in the area.

As for the atmosphere, it was pretty lively with a good mix of people. The building seems a little old so the bar kind of has a dive feel to it. I mean that in a good way though. There is also some cool decor and a room with a pool table. There is also a shuffleboard table.

Overall, this place was a good place for me to get some cheap brews and wind down during happy hour.”

“My corner bar where I have a beer with my friends.”

“very cool place, would definitely go again”

“Best bar food in Lakewood! The wings are ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC EVERY TIME!!!”

“Wonderful fresh bagels made into delicious sandwiches. Husband loved the lox on a toasted everything bagel with dill/red onion schmear, daughter loved the bacon/egg/cheddar on plain toasted bagel, I loved the Veggie spicy hummus one on a toasted rosemary bagel. We went there often during our stay in Ohio City. The staff were so friendly and personable. Will return on our next visit!”

“keeping all of you in my prayers. I can't wait to come and chill with some pretzel shots!”

“They have Sunny D, that and a shot of vodka, double D.
Cheap, close, and the breaded/deep fried ravioli is great.
The Sweet Chili sauce comes out of a bottle, so do half of mine.
Cheap, neighborhood bar.
God I love Lakewood.”

“Sarah was an amazing bartender. Drinks were amazing and quick. Clearly knew what she was doing and knew the whole menu and gave recommendations that made me want to come back. Sarah made the experience for me. Will be coming back.”

“Kataplnktiko mpravo George”

“OMG....Been here several times never disappoint, big food and good food. Love the service and the cook is wonderful. Had a Gyro wrap and fries my friend had Western omelet, Homefries and rye. Stop in and say Hi”

“Ya know, the place is great fun. The owner (Rick) is a really great guy. People are fun and I'd rate the experience higher if it weren't for the idiot "manager" (Brandon). This fool discourages and turns away people because he is a racist. Yup! Idiots are still out there. Unfortunately, they let this TOTAL looser run the place because he claims to have info on people in high places. He makes the stuff up! Hand to God's, it is total truth. Have a couple cocktails with friends, when you are on your way out he will call the Lakewood police on you. Instantly ruining your life!!! I KNOW!!! Who pulls that kind of sick move?!?! BRANDON at Corky's on Detroit!!! I know it's the absolute truth! He did it to my best friend.”

“Best Chinese food this far in Lakewood. The Mongolian beef, hunan beef, chicken lo mein, spring rolls and crab rangoon were all delicious. Beef was tender and rangoon had crab inside. Very good and will be back.”

“Great bourbon and beer selection. Max was a great bartender! Thanks for a great time!”

“This location has friendly staff and the food has always been cooked well. The location and outside leaves much to be desired but since the food is good we don't care as much about the outside 😆. Most likely you will want to get food through the drive-thru or order on the app and pick it up.”

“Stopped in yesterday got bread, cupcakes and a snoodle all are delicious.”

“Maybe I'm biased because I've never seen them lose here, but, for me, there's no better place in Lakewood to watch a Browns game. With the potluck dishes it's like family. Fuggetaboutit!
Patio is second to none also.”

“Loved getting pizza from Eat Me Pizzeria on Fourth of July. The person who is checked us out was so friendly and polite. They have the one of the best pizza’s. We got 3 pizza’s that were all exquisite in taste and a soon point in their flavor. We got their Trojan which is like a supreme, but the ones that stole my heart were the spicy pig with the chorizo, pineapple, smoked paprika aioli and red pickled onion. The absolute star of the show was their Danny Boy pizza with the Peach, manchego cheese, basil and balsamic drizzle and honey reduction. The place looks like a dreamland from inside. I’m already craving more of their delish pizza!

Vegetarian options: The Danny Boy, Tree Lover, the Basic”

“Their pizza is literally the best in town. I’m a big pizza lover, as you can tell by my 3 next favorite pizza restaurants… Angelo’s, Antonio’s and Donte’s in Berea. Oscar’s is just better.”

“Wanted to find some new places for food while kid free and stumbled across this place after seeing a steak photo posted today so I came out. Amanda and Chef Christian were friendly and super nice. The food was great. The wings were perfect and the fried shrooms were lightly battered and seasoned well. The finale, steak dinner for $13 was out of this world and ridiculously underpriced! Hand cut fries well done, green beans grilled perfectly and the steak was well seasoned and cooked as ordered. This is my new favorite place.”

“I used to bartend at a dancehall, in the ‘90s, and we also had a kitchen. Irie Jamaican Kitchen has unlocked a comfort food craving but they’re so much better. This is my new favorite takeout and they will see a lot of me.”

“Really enjoyed the happy hour specials they had during the week. It's Monday through Friday from 4pm to 8pm. Also enjoyed their wings. I liked how you can split them to try new flavors. Just need to be more crispy but maybe you can ask upon a request. But overall very good place for food and service was great.”

“We stopped in to the Burning River while on vacation for the weekend. While the coffee and tea we had were amazing it was the service that really blew us away. The barista was extremely friendly, went over the menu of specialty drinks with us and even joined us for a little conversation when he had a moment. For the extremely excellent service alone I would recommend the burning river, but let’s not forget about the coffee and tea. It was amazing.”

“So far, I’ve had the gyro, a falafel wrap, and grape leaves, all were soooo good! The friendly service just ‘ups’ my opinion, I know I’ll be back to try other eats!!”

“Great restaurant environment with quality food!”

“Excellent food, drink and service. Glad that we found this hidden gem in our travels!”

“The food is always delicious. You can't go wrong with anything you choose. Their chips and their fries are amazing. The only negative criticism is the service is always slow. Once they finally get to your table to take your order, the food comes out fast, but its usually only one server and they can only go so fast. So plan to be here a little while. Service is always super friendly though!”

“Delicious fresh juices, smoothies, and sandwiches 😋”

“Place is great! The comedy show last night was packed and featured a lot of talented comics. Love the patio too!”

“A group of friends and I dined at Taco Tontos, and everything was fantastic! The service was excellent, even though it was quite busy, and the food surpassed my expectations! I look forward to visiting again and trying some of the other options.”

“Best gyros ever, traditional and chicken!!!”

“Everything is a highlight. The Hot Carls . The Big Robs. The specials. Rip.”

“We ordered smoothies last week and they were less than stellar. We've never had an issue, but I left my feedback for thr store. The owner was very kind and told me to let him know when I could pick up a new order and said how sorry they were. We picked them up today and they were delish and perfect! Sometimes things happen, and they took care of this in the best way possible, which I appreciate greatly! We will be back, because the smoothies are great, employees are friendly and the owner very kind to apologize for the issue and make it right!”

“Shout out to the staff at this DQ - these kids are awesome! Always with a smile, super patient with kids and speedy making the orders. Always a pleasure, keep up the good work!”

“May not have been the best sandwhich I’ve ever had, but it was large and I enjoyed it over two days.

I was more impressed with how helpful the cashier was, and how quickly the food was made. Would definitely come back to this location.”

“I ordered is pizza back in February this year. I ordered a lot of food. Two deep dish pizzas, cheese bread. Crazy puffs. When I want to pick up the order. They gave me a large Hawaiian pizza and garlic chicken wings with my order. The service was great. Very Good Pizza.”

“Great drinks and atmosphere, met friends there and had a great time!”

“We are from Jersey and came in to just have a beer. So glad we stayed for the food! The wings are amazing, chopped cheese sandwich was outstanding. What a great flavor on the fries. I loved my Buffalo bowl. The service was outstanding!!! I highly recommend!”

“The pizza is so FIREEEEEE....LOL It's gonna be greasy but it's delicious 🤤😋. They need a lil bit less cheese next time though. Dint have it spread evenly. Ohh and the prices could be better. A small cost way to much.”

“You have to try the chicken paprikash soup. It's delicious! I might suggest a dollop of sour cream to top it off.”

“Delicious. Haven’t had it in many years. The sauce is on point.”

“Bottlenose brewing is a nifty bar in lakewood. What sets this one apart is the delightful fenced-in outdoor dining area. It is also one of the few restaurants in the area with dedicated parking, which I didn't know when I went there and ended up spending 10 minutes trying to find street parking.”

“Excellent food! Great egg rolls!! & Bone in spare ribs are the best I’ve ever had!!! ?”

“Honestly I was a bit surprised by how good it was. They gave me a lot of meat. It's a great deal if you order in, great prices! I ate a second gyro the next day with all the extra meat.”

“OCB is always my go to. I got the taco salad this time and I only made it through half before I tapped out. I would have taken a picture but I was hangry at the time. 😢”

“Perfect corner dive bar, especially in the summer when they open up the front. Wings and apps are good, cheap beer. Always have cool bartenders back years ago from Steve to now Ryan is awesome. Plus he looks like Deacon from Days Gone.”

“I decided to order based on my sister’s recommendation, and it did not disappoint! I called because I have dietary restrictions, and David was incredibly helpful and patient with all my questions and concerns. Since it was my first time ordering, he really went above and beyond. Delivery was smooth and effortless, and our food arrived nice and warm. Highly recommend!”

“My family loves Toni’s Pizza! 🍕🫶🏻”

“Just ate here with my buddies from
Chicago and had an amazing experience food was amazing service was even better. Kim made us feel like family with her jokes and hospitality. Next time we visit we’ll be back!”

“Great Corned Beef Dinty Moore sandwich..Generous portion..But I did not get my bag of chips🤔But I also didn’t come back & ask for them..Pretty nice staff. Would go back”

“Food was good. Service, not so much. Waited a long time for our food. The carry out wait line was super long too. Maybe whoever answer the phone should add in 5 more extra minutes so ppl aren't standing there waiting forever. Place is too small to have such a crowd inside”

“The atmosphere is great, the selection is great and so was everyone there. The brisket, ribs, the pulled pork and the smoked turkey were all delicious. The brisket nachos were awesome as well. Definitely looking forward to going back.”

“We ALWAYS HAVE A GREAT TIME @ The Christmas Corner Bar!! Loved the Raspberry Rudolph’s!”
