“Absolutely love doing our celebrations at LockKeepers! We've celebrated our Birthdays and anniversaries here through the years and it was always such a wonderful experience each time! Jackie was the best server! She really took good care of us and made sure we were happy during and after our meals. She's absolutely the best server one can ever hope for! We always had a very good gastronomic experience here at LockKeepers! Definitely coming back soon to celebrate more milestones! Thank you! Keep up the great work that you do! 👍“

“My husband and I Stopped in randomly after driving past on a Saturday afternoon. We loved it. Sat at the bar. Talked to one of the owners who served up a fantastic cranberry orange margarita! Cozy atmosphere. We shared the breakfast burger with the most perfectly fried hash browns and a side of the Brussel sprouts! No complaints. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend!“

“Amazing! This was our first time here for a family birthday party, and it did not disappoint. Mary was hands down the best waitress we’ve ever had—top-notch friendly, incredibly informative, and she truly made the entire night memorable. We can’t say enough great things about her. The drinks were outstanding. We tried five or six off the menu, and every single one was handcrafted and delicious. Favorites were the Old Fashioned, Cat’s Meow, espresso martinis, and my absolute favorite—the Frosted Sour. The food was out of this world, and the place itself is super cute with a great ambiance. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Wow! What an absolutely wonderful place to celebrate our 25th anniversary! The staff was so kind, especially Michael and Genevieve!!!!! Loved talking with both of them! The food here is incredible and very creative. Every single thing on your plate serves a purpose to the overall taste. Superb wine selection as well! We also loved its overall ambience and elegance. Hope to return someday!!!“

No matter what you decide to order I promise that you won't be disappointed. We have brought friends here who are now regular customers. Come in once and you will be back!“

“Was on vacation and looking foe a place to eat that was different and found Kitchen Social. We had the rolls with the honey butter and I had the mushroom pizza, my friend had another pizza and we both loved our food. The staff was awesome too. We enjoyed it so much that we went back the next day and tried sandwiches. Everything in this place is great.“

All I can say is, wow! not only did the place look great but, the service was awesome and the food was really good. Karen, the women working the bar was an absolute sweetheart. She was very warm and welcoming. Karen whipped us up some really tasty holiday drinks. We highly recommend the Tipsy Santa.“

Our pre- dinner activity finished a whole hour and a half before our reservation and they made it work to help me stay stress free for the evening.

Special shoutout to Peter, the manager— he always goes above and beyond to make us feel like family and ensures everything runs smoothly. If you’re thinking about going—do it!

“What a hidden gem. My husband and I stumbled upon Nordstrom Grill a few weeks ago and it was like we were transported back in time. The wait staff couldn't be more helpful. The soups are amazing and will warm you up on a cold winter day . . . and the burger might also be the best in Cleveland. I only wish it were open for breakfast!“

“So many great choices here. Don’t miss this one in a million Brewery. For all the beer snobs in your life.“

“Thankfully they were open late because we needed somewhere moderately priced with decent food to take my brother out for a birthday dinner. The food was a B-, service could have definitely been better and the atmosphere was average. Drinks could improve and steaks ordered were reasonable. Would go back but more so thankful for the late hours!“

“Our great experience started with the friendly hostess letting us pick our favorite spot. The wait staff is always excellent. Jackie is always friendly, courteous, and professional. It's nice to be treated well after a long week at work.“

“We’ve enjoyed many wonderful tasting menus over the years, but our New Year’s Eve experience at JoJo’s truly stood out as something special. Executive Chef Landon and his incredible Executive Sous Chef, Joe, presented our family with one of the most memorable and perfectly executed dinners we’ve had. Since we couldn’t decide between the options, we shared everything, and we’re so glad we did. The stone crab claws and lamb lollipops were an outstanding start. For entrées, my husband chose the bone‑in ribeye while I had the lobster ricotta agnolotti with black truffle. Both were exceptional. We ended the night by sharing the Luxardo cheesecake and the champagne‑poached pears, which were the perfect finish. The champagne and wine we were suggested were spot‑on, though the wine pairing would have been a great choice as well. The management team, with Mark and Ryan leading the ship that night, made the evening seamless, and our bartender, Michael, was an absolute professional. truly, everyone there is fantastic. Chef Landon once shared a quote with us from Oscar Wilde: “To the strangers that become friends and those friends become family.” That sentiment perfectly captures what we love most about every experience here. We could not recommend this establishment more.“

“Fantastic atmosphere and food! you have to meet Leon, the nicest gentleman serving us at the bar. Highly Recommend Cedar Creek!!!!“

“Having moved from Florida's Gulf Coast last year, I had yet to find any food in Ohio I liked as well as Sarasota. Last night at Heck's, my hope was restored! The caliber of textures and tastes was fantastic! Delicious and clearly well thought out menu options for anyone's palate. I had the Moroccan kabobs and truffle pierogis (which are NOT your average pierogi!) and our table split several other appetizers. Great ambiance too. You'll love it.“

“Here you can not only taste the rich and delicious food, but also appreciate the unique art.“

“Excellent seafood. I eat seafood all the time and the shrimp here are large and of good quality. I got a rice bowl with curry sauce. The sausage crawfish and shrimp were plentiful. Curry sauce was fabulous with just the right amount of heat. I ordered medium hot. First time ordering and I will definitely be ordering again.“

“This was my first time at Cork-N-Bottle. I was very pleased. I honestly did not know what to expect but I was very happy when I walked out! I sat in a booth and was seen from one of the bar tenders. Right away I was approached and served very good drinks and food.“

“From a city 2 hours away but was able to experience Frederick’s today. From start to finish everything was A1 The atmosphere begging you in. The service was top-notch and when the food came out, oh my. I had the red snapper and was blown away. The presentation of the plate of eye catching. The taste of food was mouthwatering good. I pierced the fish with macaroni and cheese and yams. After takes the macaroni and cheese, I ordered some to go. I have the smoked old-fashioned and it was one of the best that I’ve had in a long time. I impression was I’m not sure how I got such a great meal at a value price. I definitely will be back along with encouraging anyone to experience this wonderful restaurant“

“Very pleasant surprise. Hotel restaurants typically aren’t for me... reluctantly I gave it a try. My breakfast wrap was excellent, the evening meal was Cajun shrimp pasta... I’d get that again. This morning is sliders... another winner.“
