“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’!“

“Wonderful food is a foregone conclusion at the Cabin Club. I’ve never had a bad meal there. Today’s lunch was lobster bisque and the steak salad. Highly recommend both. But what made my lunch a truly wonderful experience was the absolutely phenomenal service. I am a senior with mobility issues. It has been awhile since I was at the restaurant and I completely forgot the front steps. Only three, but still tough for me to climb solo. When another patron mentioned my difficulty to the hostess (SO sorry I didn’t get her name!) she came out and took me around to the side door, where it was much easier to get in. My lunch companion had to duck out early, so this awesome hostess not only helped me go out the side door, she walked me all the way to my car! This sort of kindness, sadly, is in short supply these days. Thank you, Cabin Club and your fantastic staff for going above and beyond!“

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.“

“Arrived 10 minutes early. Hostess couldn't log into her device to find our reservation. Got seated right away. Server was wonderful, but unfortunately, not very attentive because it was her and one other person taking care of many tables. Drinks were empty, often for a while. We were there celebrating an 11 year-old‘s birthday. Four of us got served our food while our birthday boy waited 15 minutes to receive his chicken tenders while other tables after us were served orders with chicken tenders. The runner was notified that he was missing his food and he said he would take care of it, but he did not. We had to walk towards the kitchen to let someone know because no one came back to our table after 10 minutes and by the time we were able to eat our food when he received his, it was cold. Our server was so busy and they were obviously understaffed. I had to get up and request our own boxes after waiting over five minutes.We have been here quite a few times in the past with no issue. This experience makes me question if it's worth coming back again. It was also very disappointing that in my reservation I left notes that this was a birthday celebration and because the hostess couldn't log into her device, no one recognized that we were celebrating a special occasion. And to top it off, our hostess was also our server! Now I am receiving emails from OpenTable saying that we were a no-show to our reservation and I have to take my time to explain and show proof that we showed up. Not worth the hassle! Do better.“

“📍 Moosehead Tavern – Westlake, OH 📸 @mooseheadsaloonwestlake This place is all charm and chill vibes. It’s cozy inside with a cool little patio that makes it feel like your neighborhood hangout—but with better food. Stopped in for a quick lunch today and lucked out—half-off ribs was on deck, so you know I had to jump on that. 🍖 Ribs – 7.8/10 Fall-off-the-bone tender with a flavorful sauce that hit the spot. Not fancy, just solid and satisfying BBQ at a great deal. 🍟 Fries – A mountain. Literally. They gave me what felt like 4 pounds of crispy golden fries—no complaints there. 🍅 Ketchup – Unexpected MVP Not sure if it's house-made or some secret blend, but the ketchup was different... and honestly? Delicious. It added something extra to every bite. Whether you’re out for a laid-back meal or a quick bite on a deal day, Moosehead Tavern delivers. Check it out if you’re in the Westlake area! 🍽️ Two food lovers, one page—justifying our epic food binges, one bite at a time.

“First time here and i gotta say i liked it. Decent price and good quality food. I got the bacon egg croissant sandwich and kale juice. I could barely finish sandwich it had so much stuff on it. Having drink options besides soda and alcohol reminded me of being in bali. I dont eat out much because most places just have the same mediocre food and charge too much for poor quality and bad service. Looking forward to coming back and trying something else.“

“There were 5 of us; 3 loved their meals and 2 were not thrilled. That was generally our experience—not consistently as great as we had heard. The steak/chicken/fish were delicious but not so much the sides— for example, 2 people had asparagus, one delicious the other tough/woody. Waitress did not seem to know the menu (eg couldn’t explain/describe what “dragon fries” were). Potstickers were yummy but the eggplant appetizer just meh. They were out of mint so no mojitos. Wine was expensive and it took us several tries to get a decent bottle (first bottle had old cork which broke into the wine, her recommendation for new bottle was unacceptable) by which time we were mostly thru our dinner. Ambience is lovely and location is easy to find w ample parking.“

The coconut mojito was delicious and definitely had alcohol in it. I say that because restaurants like to water down alcohol but this was on point! Of course I took pumpkin cheesecake and pineapple upside down cheesecake home. Two that I recommend!!“

“This was my first time at this particular location. The food was good, as expected, on the same level as other locations I've been to. The reason I take off a star is for the state of the dining room. The majority of the tables were empty, but very few were clean. This was on a Sunday mid-afternoon. I understand that the kitchen is busy between in-person and online orders, but everyone I saw come in during my time there ordered on the kiosk, so no one needed to be at the counter. The only time anyone came out was to deliver food. Either no one was assigned to the dining room, or if someone was, they weren't doing their job.“
