“Visiting from Maryland, and read good reviews about Danspot. Glad we came. Dinner was fantastic. I had the Shrimp Piccatta, and my wife had Pipette pesto pasta with chicken. Both were outstanding. And our server Jake, was wonderful. Friendly and attentive. If you're in the area of the MGM Northfield, be sure to stop at Danspot. You will be glad you did.“

“I absolutely love this local restaurant! 😊 There’s just something special about a neighborhood spot that consistently serves great food and makes you feel welcome every time you visit. The service is always quick and efficient, and the staff are incredibly friendly, which really adds to the overall experience.

One of my favorite things on the menu is the Western omelette. 🍳 It’s always cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. I usually order it with a side of pork links, some toast, and a refreshing glass of apple juice, which makes for a really satisfying meal. 😋 The prices are also very reasonable, so you get a great meal without spending too much.

Another cool thing about this place is the artwork displayed around the restaurant. 🎨 Not only does it add a lot of character to the decor, but you can actually purchase some of the pieces if you like them. The atmosphere is lively and inviting, and everything — from the dining area to the restrooms — is very clean and well maintained.

Overall, it’s a fantastic place to eat, and I would definitely recommend checking it out! 👍“

I will recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants quality at a fair price. For a small sit down/carry out restaurant, I thought the place was super clean and new looking with white quartz counters and white wall tiles. Looks very new inside.“

“This is one of my new favorites in the Cleveland Area of the only place I visited in a long time that gives you 2 Nice Sized Pieces of Catfish, 4 hush puppies, Coleslaw and FRESH CUT edible FRIES all for one price. I have been here 5 times and they have am Amazing Chicken Philly Sandwich these both items are seasoned to perfection and not to salty like most places you can barely tolerate the heavy seasonings from something who has to watch their salt intake. Jumbo Chicken Rolls are a most have my family love those as well! Most places I have to toss my food. Customer Service is always friendly and patient staff is always with a good attitude fast service and clean location. Compliments to the chef staff and the great owner!!! Glad this business exists.“

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! 👍“

“The staff was amazing! My 17 (!) friends and family members and I had a blast for my bachelorette party. 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. Aimee, our server, was so sweet and ensured my group of gals were taken care of the entire time. I highly recommend!“

“Everything was incredible!! Starting with our wonderful server Hallie, all the way to the chef who prepared something for our daughter that wasn’t even on the menu! The food was delicious, every course. We can’t wait to go back!“

“The courtyard has been a staple in the lives of Brecksville residents for YEARSSSS“

“On Saturday, March 21, 2026 I put together an event with some of my friends - A Fella's Night - and I chose Rosewood Grill in Hudson as the place we would dine. I spoke with the manager, James, and we got it all set up. All of my friends had a wonderful time! They all loved the restaurant! The food was excellent! Mary-Ann and Coral took very good care of us!

I started with a house salad. For my entree I had the Delmonico Ribeye. It was perfectly cooked! Alongside that was a loaded Baked Potato and a plate full of the largest most beautiful shrimp I've ever seen! Mary-Ann recommended a red wine that paired very nicely with my meal. I hate that I didn't take any pictures. I was too busy having fun with my friends!

The night went off without a hitch. (Well, maybe a small hitch. I did get charged twice for the shrimp I got. Thus the 4 stars. But...) My friends and I had a really good time! I would absolutely recommend this establishment for a night out.

Thank you all for a wonderful night to remember!“

“We reviewed Hello Bistro in Beachwood OH, well JRK did because Joe was too busy "working"...... Tried the Tex Mex burger – looked great, but it was tiny and bland. I was expecting flavor fireworks, but it was more like a flavor fizzle. The avocado was the highlight though! The fries were fresh and tasty, and the house-made ranch? Chef’s kiss. As for the chocolate chip cookie… I thought it was fresh, but it was more like a sad, store-bought rock. Tex Mex Burger 5.5 Hand cut fries 6.1 House Made Ranch 8.2 Chocolate Chip Cookie 2.0“

“TLP has quickly become a staple in our date night routine! Every visit is consistently amazing. The food is bursting with flavor and offers a unique twist on classic favorites—we’re always impressed. The atmosphere is just as incredible; every staff member we’ve met is genuinely friendly and seems to truly enjoy what they do. 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! You will NOT be disappointed!“

“I purchase a Salmon bowel over rice ,and a burger for later long day office.OMG my taste buds were watering it was well seasoned not salty at all each bit was as satisfying as the last.Well done ,well price and my stars are well deserved...👍“

“When I mention Academy Tavern I mention “Cheers,” where every one knows your name. The establishment provides great food, great pricing, personable and timely bar staff, and conversation with anyone and everyone. Owner, Jessica’s smile and giggles are heart warming, and Owner Chris makes sure every woman is walked to her car by a man in the restaurant if not himself. If this isn’t community, I don’t know what is.“

“Dined at Fisher's last nite . Food and service was good as usual ! Was surprised by a 2.5% Credit Card Fee !!! Do give a discount for Cash ? As a retired retailer I find this in poor taste !!! I always consider this a cost of doing business!!!“

“Easy 5 stars all they way around at Heritage! Went last weekend and had the BEST Wagyu ( local from Southington, OH). Our server, Lilly, was very knowledgeable about the menu, accommodating and helpful. The food and drink speaks for itself; this is a must try and in the top echelon of CLE fine dining.“

“Excellent food!“

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.“
