“Great place!!! Lots to do and always hosting a variety of events for adults and kids!!“

“Great local place to crab a Cleveland area craft beer. Bartenders also make homemade libations that hit the spot. Coktails are also seasonal and fantastic. Bar seating is limited but plenty of communal tables. Also offers to go beers so you can shop around the area. No food but you can bring in food options from the market.“

“I talked my husband into going. We went on Friday evening, we sat at the bar, service was great. As we sat there I heard a saxophone with my back to the band. I asked my husband is that a sax I hear. He said yes. The band was good. My husband said "this is going to be my new go to place". Nice crowd.“

“10/10 Would Recommend! Friendly Staff & Good Plant Based Asian Fusion Food!“

“Having a tip automatically added to the bill of two people is off-putting. For the record, I'm a good Tipper. I did actually add to the 15% automatically added because our server was awesome. But tipping is an addition, not part of the bill. Heck, add it to the cost of the food and I'll pay it. but not in tipping. that's my choice.“

“I have breakfast here every Friday and I love their food. I have met some of the nicest people that are regulars here like I am. The staff is awesome! The service is wonderful thanks to Lisa, Ricky and Ian.“

“Was there yesterday towards the end of a visit to Cleveland. It's a cute old-school diner with standard diner fare. But what really stood out was the incredible kindness of all the employees there. Impeccable service. Thank you for the positive experience.“

“I was recently given a recommendation to try The Standard, and I’m very glad I took it.

As someone who loves good food, finding a hidden gem in a city you already enjoy visiting is always a treat. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between upscale and welcoming. I ended up sitting on the patio, which made for a fantastic evening.

Nicole was my server, and she was outstanding. Friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable without ever being overbearing. She took the time to answer questions about the menu and made several recommendations that absolutely elevated the experience. Her suggestion to start with the octopus appetizer was spot on. It was one of the best appetizers I’ve had in a very long time.

For the main course, I ordered the hanger steak with chimichurri, and it was exceptional. Perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and one of those meals that has you planning your next visit before you’ve even finished the first one.

What really stood out was how well everything came together. Great atmosphere, incredible food, and service that genuinely made the experience memorable. Nicole did an excellent job, and her recommendations were a big part of what made the evening so enjoyable.

Five stars hardly feels adequate. The Standard delivered one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time, and I’ll absolutely be back.“

“9/24/2025: This place is a gem! The food and service was amazing! Our server Katina was very attentive and made sure everything was great throughout the night!!

“📍 Deanatella’s Italian Deli – Valley View, OH 🧀🍕🥖 A true hidden gem that screams classic Italian deli the second you walk in. If you can name the deli meat, trust us—they’ve got it. Shelves packed, fridges loaded, and a full lineup of Coke products to wash it all down. We stop here 2–3 times a month, and for good reason. The food never misses. Here's what we had today: 🍕 Pepperoni Pizza – 8.1/10 Hot, fresh, and loaded with flavor. A crustless, center-cut slice of cheesy joy. No edge, no problem—it hits hard where it counts. 🍕 Sausage Pizza – 8.4/10 Same amazing base, but the sausage takes it up a notch. Big, juicy chunks of sausage packed with flavor. Definitely the MVP slice today. 🌶️ Mild Pepper Sub – 9.2/10 This one’s my go-to. Not super spicy, but absolutely loaded with flavor. The combo of peppers, melty cheese, and rich sauce makes for one giant, unforgettable sandwich. Perfect from the first bite to the last. The staff? Always friendly. The vibes? All Italian. If you’re anywhere near Cleveland, do yourself a favor and stop by Deanatella’s. You’ll thank yourself later. 🍽️ Two food lovers, one page—justifying our epic food binges, one bite at a time.

“We need these down south. Originally im from the Carolinas and we dont have india food this good. Its like Chipotle bur indian food. I got the nake your own bowl and it was fantastic. I did order 2 more pieces of the bread but only recieved 1 but im still giving 5 stars. Food this good doesnt come along often. They have a fantastic formula here and I think they can 100 percent make it work all over the country.“

“Great food! All fresh made in house 😋“

“Went tonight to celebrate my mother's 93rd birthday. The Manager, Waiter and lobby/reception area couldn't be nicer. The Chef brought out something special to add to our celebration. Everyone treated us Royal. Food was AMAZING! This place is Nothing but the best. We left stuffed and thrilled we made a great choice in where to celebrate. They even had a special menu made up for my mother with a happy 93rd birthday printed on it. She was thrilled. We will always remember this night.“

“Best Italian food in the area period! My famiIy has enjoyed many visits/celebrations there over the years and the food/service is always great! Nothing on the menu is a bad choice and definitely save room for desert. You can tell their food is made with love ❤️“

“My family and I were vacationing in Ohio this week. We wanted to visit a local restaurant so we did some research and found so many great reviews. We decided on Thai and I'm so glad that we did. The food was amazing and the woman working the counter was hard working and so friendly. We enjoyed the food and the experience and we would definitely recommend to anyone looking for good Thai Food in Lyndhurst, Ohio“

“I have been coming here for well beyond thirty years and found the food to be deluscious every single time!“

“Great food and friendly staff. I enjoy Miega Korean Restaurant when I am in Cleveland.“

“I came here a lot between 2022 and 2025 when I lived in Cleveland. The beer has always been top notch even for Cleveland but I have to say the food has gotten much better since Eugene's first opened its kitchen inside. I used to think differntly about them but in 2026 these may be the best fries in the city. The vegan dumplings were very high quality and you can't tell that a lot of skill and intent went into the non-meag dishes. I would definitely recommend stopping“
