13 Best American Restaurants in Rocky River

“I stopped in over the summer with my sister for lunch and we were so glad we did, food was absolutely amazing! I told my boyfriend after we have to go there, it is so good! Took him yesterday for his birthday, we are both still talking about it today. He told me he told multiple people at work about it and has been thinking about your cannolis all day and I have been too, best I've ever had. Ever single thing from cocktails to dessert to atmosphere is absolutely amazing, I, we cannot brag about you guys enough! Classy cocktail menu, the char sour and classic old fashioned are a must try. You're selection of bourbon for bourbon lovers is top notch too! Last the food, beet salad, lobster rolls, cassoulet pie are to die for 🤌 have to talk about the cannolis again, one pistachio and one chocolate chip, don't snooze on those if you go! My biggest compliments to the chef. We will definitely be back.“

“Stopped here after a night spent in Cleveland for a concert. After a night of coors lights we were looking for good fries and sandwiches, this place did not disappoint. Honestly, might be the best place I've eaten since 2020. Well staffed, clean, food was excellent, everyone working there was kind. We had soups which were great. A Reuben and a chicken melt with fries, would recommend both. Got some cake to go, none were my favorite ever but all good. Chocolate mousse stood out.“

“All you can eat fries with your meal the first order was hot and fresh.
The second order took forever to arrive at our table and when they did finally arrive they were cold as ice.
This could be because our server was distracted constantly by talking to her coworkers they were all just standing around either talking amongst themselves or playing on their cellphones.“

“Warm, Friendly local establishment with fantastic staff and service!“

“I Celebrate my 60th Birthday at Salmon Dave’s (3/15).For my entrée had the Pecan crusted Grouper dinner.. It was great. The atmosphere was nice and our waitress (Bird) was the best.. We will return.“

“I wanted to come in Google to “challenge” some of the recent negative reviews - I’m not sure the story happened the way it is portrayed in the reviews. I was there during the confrontation (I attached my receipt to prove so). But I challenge that all the folks writing the negative reviews were - maybe friends banding together to write bad reviews???
Anyway - we were at the table right next to the part of 8 table - and I was facing the table. The only loud voices I heard were those of the diners. However, I did not realize they were upset - I did hear something about them complaining that they couldn’t split their checks and how it was BS. (I remember thinking that they were very upset for something that was posted on the door when walking into the restaurant - but whatever - some people let little things work them up).
Next thing I knew, the diners left and drove out of the parking lot honking their horns and giving the restaurant the middle finger. ALL ON A SUNDAY MORNING!!!!!
Back to Herb’s itself - all 4 people in our party loved the food - the service was fine, the atmosphere was fine after the hoopla!!! There was a young lady (not our waitress), who was very attentive to the people sitting on the patio - so kudos to her!!“

“Always get to go here. Love the broccoli. It’s the best Lobster Bique I have ever had.“

“Love this place. The hub wanted to try a new place and this was his pick. Smart choice babe! Great service, atmosphere and delicious food. Jessica was the absolute best!! And no, we're not affiliated to establishments or Jessica. Just die hard honest reviews!

“I’m well aware that I can be hypercritical. When dining in the greater Lexington area, I’m often referred to as “a prick” by family and friends. But I’m not in Kansas anymore. As a connoisseur of the finer things, I immediately shut down the suggestion of ”Wine Bar” as the Michelin Man failed to namedrop this Rocky River Staple. But then I ate there and realized the Michelin Man should get out more !! Where do I begin? The sights, the smells—or perhaps I start with my wonderful server, “Santa” Hanna? To transform wine into grapes may be divine, but to have the dinner I just consumed? Redemption itself. I think my family may have a new nickname for me fairly soon…“

“Perfect place for Christmas dates or family or any date. 100% so glad we just happened to walk in after the toy store. Beautiful everything and the food is good!!!!!

“Amazing, cozy, warm atmosphere. $15 beer flights of 8 beers and all are very good! Two hoppy & malty IPAs are among the best. $9 burgers every Tuesday- the Black & Bleu Burger is delicious. The bartender Kelly is friendly, knowledgeable, high energy, and fun- be nice to her and tip her well. Men’s washroom is clean and cool. Last but not least LOTS OF PARKING in their free parking lot. Highly recommend. I’ll be back! 🍻“
