“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-“

I am not exaggerating when I say this was one of the best experiences and meals we have EVER had. Aside from the food, you could tell the staff really cared to ensure customers had an amazing experience. Will DEFINITELY be going back!“

“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.“

“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. ❤️“

“This place is awesome! Great staff and atmosphere.“

“Front of house service is pretty poor. Takes forever to get your order. Doesn’t come
Check on you, no refills. The food is amazing. I took my mom for dinner and waited almost 45 minutes for them to come by. The kitchen staff is what brings people here. They’re the life of the place. The servers look miserable and are not friendly. Had to as the chef and the kitchen crew for more water and a box. 10/10 recommend the food and kitchen. The front of house could use some work.“

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

“Very nice place! The burger was delicious! The only complaint is the parking. Thankfully we went on a Tuesday afternoon so it wasn’t busy but I couldn’t imagine trying to find parking when it’s busy. Even with parking I will definitely be back. Our server was very nice :)“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“Ryan is AMAZING! he makes the best drinks and is always here and always working so hard. I'm always so happy when he's our bartender :)He works bar and kitchen which is super impressive. Get his food and drinks. You won't be “

“I always have the best time here! Tonight we had Tony as our server and he went above and beyond to make sure my friends and I had the best experience for dinner and drinks. I would highly recommend this place for happy hour, dinner with friends and or family any day of the week!!“

“Enjoyed every bit of the cajun dry rub wings dressed w/ the mango-jalapeño sauce on the side and fries. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Atmosphere ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I've had wings all over Ohio. These are up there with the best I've ever had. Will certainly be back! I've driven past so many times but decided to try them in a whim, wow am I glad I did. Buffaque is a mix of their house buffalo and bbq sauce. Had more heat than I expected, which I loved. Can't wait to come back! Booths FTW!“
