“Love Westsiders! Sunday Happy Hour? Sign me up! It’s always a fun and laid back vibe with top tier drinks, food and service. 10/10 recommend.“

“We enjoyed a late dinner on a Friday evening. My husband had the beer battered perch, baked potato and a salad and I had a patty melt with fries. The fish has lots of breading but the fish was good. My patty melt was to be medium well but it came out medium rare. We took home a chocolate cheesecake and sugar cookies for our grandchildren. Very good!!“

“Great venue with nice outdoor dining area. Small but delicious menu. Very good service by experienced wait staff. It's a little more expensive than comparable venues, but we still choose to go here when in the area.“

“I had my granddaughters bridal shower here. What a delightful experience!! Veronica helped me order everything and Liz was our server. Two amazing ladies!! The room was set up perfectly for my guests, the food was delicious and Liz made sure everyone had anything they wanted. I highly recommend the Burntwood in Rocky River for special occasions or just a great night out.Thank you ladies!!!“

“First time visiting this restaurant, but they won me over, 100%! Their shrimp polenta is one of my favorite restaurant meals; I will be back to have it again! The rest of the family chose pizzas, which they enjoyed, their bar steak - very flavorful and cooked as ordered - and the chicken milanese. Not a sad face from one of the none of us. The service was great! We arrived before the crowds starting pouring in, so perfect timing. They have a small amount of patio seating on the street side as well. YUM!!!“

“First time visiting this restaurant for lunch on a Thursday afternoon. Megan, our waitress was absolutely wonderful with a smile and such great service and recommendations for things on the menu. My friend Stacey and I really enjoyed the entire experience. The food was very tasty and healthy portion of delicious fries with my Divine Smashburger . I will be talking about this place to others on the east side of Cleveland. Definitely worth the drive. Would love to get this restaurant in my publication, Shoreline Faith & Family which is family faith based to launch in the summer so that others can see what a great restaurant it is. Love promoting those that go above and beyond to keep them around for years to come!! Cheers to the team and the owner here for providing such a wonderful place to meet.“

“Great food and amazing atmosphere, Their nachos are absolutely amazing⭐️⭐️ definitely number one for me. Just one tiny thing: next time, please add a little extra chicken on top of the nachos! 🤓 The service was fast and friendly. Definitely coming back again“

“Found this place when I searched for best places to eat in Cleveland while we were on vacation and this one had good reviews and realistic prices so we decided to try it out and we are so glad we did! It was a warm and inviting atmosphere for being mostly a bar with extra seating. You felt like you were at home and all the staff treated you like you were family or a good friend and they looked happy to be there even though it got a bit busy when we had gotten there. Service was excellent, food was delicious, my husband got the ribs and he was in love. I tried the bbq sauce as I'm really picky about bbq sauces and it was delicious! The skull shaped cornbread was so good. I had a turkey club sandwich with the chips and the French onion dip is a must have. Great experience, we will definitely be back next time we are up in Cleveland!“

“Our meal was great! Kid-friendly. Great service! Comfortable local restaurant that was moderately busy, but not packed and we didn’t have to wait to be seated. Trivia night. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Rice bowl with chicken, boneless wings, burger, and turkey Rachel sandwich. Ryan brought out our apps and kept checking on us. We wouldn’t hesitate to return when we’re in the area!“

“high end atmosphere. wonderful food. great service. downside.. no Chardonnay for my friend.“

“Best patio in Lakewood. Food is solid and the service is absolutely incredible. Kyonna was incredibly personable and took amazing care of us. We will be back to try some more food, but what we had was decent for just stopping in for a handful of appetizers and cocktails. I'll be back just because the ambiance and service were impeccable. Thanks again Kyonna!“

“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-“

“Roula was an amazing bartender. She made our experience memorable. We will definitely be returning soon!“

“I love Germany“

“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.“

“We had my mom’s 90th birthday party with 28 guests at the Westlake location this morning. Because we are regulars there, Nick the manager bent the rules a wee bit to allow us to have the back area, near the bar for our party right at opening time on a Saturday. The service by wait staff Mary and Lauren was fabulous, every one of us LOVED our food and your hospitality was off the charts! Thank you again for allowing us to have this 90th in the best of all places for our youngest family member (age one) and all the way up! Love, love, love Kitchen Social. Ps. My pimento burger and ceasar salad were ‘da bomb’!“

“Had a family luncheon in the side room on Dec. 27. 10 people. We were all extremely pleased with our experience. Food was very good. Service was excellent, actually above and beyond. 1 waitress…Cherie… took very good care of our group. Very friendly and knowledgeable of the food. We’ll all be back!“

“My boyfriend and I decided to finally try Rood on Valentine's Day after wanting to go for the past few years we've lived in Lakewood. 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!“

“This is my go-to restaurant every time I fly out of CLE, even if my flight leaves from a completely different concourse. It’s unique for an airport restaurant and I’ve always been impressed by the quality and quantity of food.

One disclaimer is that I always fly out of CLE very early, so I’ve only ever tried their breakfast bowls, and I only ever get ground beef. But it’s always a super filling and delicious meal! The employees are more than happy to pile whatever you want onto your bowl.“

“Great Food excellent service“

“A really nice neighborhood bar. It has the feel of a working man's bar. It's an atmosphere that I enjoy. The food I have tried is excellent with large portions. I had the best BLT of my life here. Usually I get the wings which far surpass Buffulo Wild Wings. The staff is friendly and very attentive. It is an out of the way place, but not far off the beaten path. I highly recommend.“

“Just had a great lunch at BJ.’s. Excellent food and our waiter, Michael, was the best!!! I recommend eating here.“

“The place has great waitresses and food is good , big place too ,it's always packed and a great atmosphere. 5 star.“

“I can't say enough good things. I've been twice, both the eggplant parm and shrimp fratello blew me away. Prices are very reasonable, portions are great, and the service is just as memorable and outstanding as the food. Ambiance is very cozy and inviting, great for a date night or a larger dinner with family and friends.“

“Our favorite dinner spot ..the salmon sandwich, chicken sandwich and chicken salad melt are our first choices. All their soups.. and Irish Stout is excellent too.“

“We've been to the Westlake Rosewood Grill several times and always leave Extremely Satisfied. The Managers, Servers & Staff are Always Very Professional, Friendly, Polite, Considerate and make our dining experience truly delightful. The food and portions the Chefs prepare are always consistently Generous, Delicious and Excellent! We Highly Recommend a dining experience at this location!“

“The food and service were great and can’t be being on the water!“

June was super helpful. We grew up in the neighborhood and this was the perfect place. Highly recommend for a private party.“

“Nice bartender Great place“

“We had a great experience this weekend at Teamz. We brought in a very large group 20+ for a team lunch. The staff was super accommodating. Our waitress Wendy was amazing and really handled such a large group like a rockstar. Our food came out quick for having so many people. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. We’ll definitely be back in the future!“

“Amazing food with fresh quality ingredients!! The burnt ends were smokey, sweet, and a bit salty (not over salty!). Orchette toscana was perfectly creamy, not drowning in sauce, and the sausage was just right to complete the dish....not too spicy. The distillery burger was juicy and very flavorful. And the drinks, so so good! Read the descriptions and try what sounds good...there is something for everyone. We will definitely be back!“

“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! 🍻“

“We had dinner at White Oaks tonight and it was absolutely delicious! I splurged on the twin lobster tails. The very generous sized tails, served with drawn butter, were perfectly cooked, fresh and wonderful. My sides of vegetables and twice baked potato were equally yummy. Dessert was a wonderful creme broulee. Service was spot on professional. One of the best meals I've had in a long time.“

“The patio is pet friendly and great food. The staff is always kind.“

“We were in town for the weekend and had the opportunity to share dinner with friends local to the area. Our evening was relaxed, enjoyable, and memorable. Everyone's food and drink was found on point and perfect. We will definitely return to this wonderful restaurant upon our next visit. Thank you all!“

“We recently discovered this restaurant, now it’s one of our favorites…“

“This was our first time visiting and Julie our server was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. We were seated immediately, our drinks and food came out quickly and Julie didn’t have to write anything down for a table of 6 and still remembered everything. There was not a single item ordered that wasn’t phenomenal. The plating is beautiful, each dish was well balanced with acids, sweetness and savory. I have to say the appetizers were so good we probably could’ve stopped there but when the entrees came we were blown away. For the price this food was exceptional. We will definitely be back, it’s worth the hour drive.“

“Our church Dinner Group had a wonderful meal at Veranda this week. The Tomahawk was a big favorite! All 22 of us ate on the patio and our waitress was exceptional getting meals out and taking care of our bills in a timely, friendly manner.“

“Great food and wonderful hospitality. The drinks are amazing“

“After having a terrible experience at Sammy‘s Beach Bar and Grill across the hall, we came over to 800° Degree we’re greeted so pleasantly by Sydnee. I told her about our bad experience across the way and she recommended some amazing options for breakfast and she was 100% correct. Breakfast was delicious. The environment was clean and we left satisfied. We travel to Cleveland often and this is usually our stop on the way home. We will definitely never stray again. Thank you Sydnee!!“

“Great place with good food.“
