New American Restaurants near Westlake, OH

“We went for Happy Hour, yesterday on a Friday. We were seated immediately and our server was extremely nice. The appetizers came staggered and we ordered six plus mocktails. I forgot to take a picture of the pizza! Everything was pretty good. This wasn’t our first time dining here but it was the first time coming for happy hour and we will be back. The value was definitely worth it.“

“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’!“

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

“📍 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. Follow along at @joeandjrkfoodreviews for mouthwatering meals, honest scores, and the best hidden gems you need to try. Come hungry.“

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!“

“1st time I ever been to this part of Ohio. Niece was baptized , Beautiful shopping center. The dinner afterwards was served here. I didn’t like dressing they put on their salad BUT everything else was oh my gosh delicious. Best mashed potatoes I have ever had super creamy. Didn’t even need salt or pepper.
I got my peppers & asparagus without mushrooms also super delicious & love the sauce used.
Steak medium rare was 10/10. Great crisp & grill taste. Super juicy. Sauce they used was amazing.

I hardly ever finish a full plate. But almost did here. Few bites away. Full & satisfied

Also that waitress with the European accent was so very very very nice.“

“Excellent service and food was fresh and delicious 😋 Would highly recommend!“

“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.“

“We had a party of 7 and lizzy was our waitress. She did an excellent job serving us with it only being her 3rd day on the job.“

“Our first visit to Crumb & Spigot will certainly not be our last. The menu offers something for everyone, and the specials were both inventive and thoughtfully executed. Service struck the perfect balance — friendly without being overly familiar — and was consistently excellent throughout the evening. We arrived for our dinner reservation (and yes, you need them) at the tail end of happy hour, and the bar was lively. Despite the rush, our server remained attentive and even apologized more than once for minor delays that did not detract from the experience. A true gem in Lakewood and well worth a visit.“

“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.“

“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!“

“I always have the best time here! Tonight we had Tony as our server and he went above and beyond to make sure my friends and I had the best experience for dinner and drinks. I would highly recommend this place for happy hour, dinner with friends and or family any day of the week!!“

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

“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-“

“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.“

“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!“

“Delicious and flavorful food, every time!“

“Been patronizing Bucci's for years. Belong to the birthday club. Have had Easter and Thanksgiving dinners to go. All excellent. Celebrating Dave my husband's birthday today and greeted by Lisa S. our lovely server. Lisa was very attentive and gave us excellent service. The food was fantastic as usual. We both had lasagna, our favorite, with salads and the fantastic bread. The special tonight was chicken paprikash and we couldn't resist to order it to go for tomorrow night's meal. I had enough of my lasagna left for two more meals. Had tiramasu and chocolate cake for dessert. Since we ate late in the afternoon and Saturday night is our "pizza" night, we ordered a deluxe thin crust pizza to go also. Thank you, Lisa, for making our night so special. Sorry we didn't get to see Charles tonight, another one of our favorite servers. We definitely will be back soon. Carol and Dave T.\n\nShow less“

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

“Sarah was our server, we had a large group, 15 people, she managed it perfectly and was absolutely delightful to work with. As always the food was perfect, the atmosphere warm and inviting, and the staff, top notch. Thank You for a great morning!!“

“All around phenomenal date night. The server was knowledgeable and gave great suggestions. My water was always filled promptly. Cocktails were unique but comforting. Food was absolutely delicious, the potatoes ripped. As for the dessert…. One of the best programs around. Thoughtful, decadent, and all around enjoyable“

“I ALWAYS make time to go to Currito whenever I fly into CLE. I'm so sad whenever I land late and they are closed LOL. Their bowls are so delicious and filling. They can be one large meal or two small meals. And they are pretty healthy considering all of the fresh vegetables you get with them. Prices also seem fair for the amount of food you are getting.“

“Exceptional. The service was 5 star. I ordered the twin tails with risotto and crème brûlée. Everything was perfectly prepared. Saturday night—great date night. We will definitely be back!“

“Great Food excellent service“

“Nice menu for lunch and brunch, with Wine from my Wine Club bottles. Then only problem was we are in Ohio snow country no place to put coats, it was 25 degrees. So you want servers tripping over your guest's coats. We did great extra chair to put them on. We had 8 all of us had something different, it was served hot and all very good. 2 birthday and had the birthday dessert for them. Angela was are server got us everything we needed and separate checks of course. Thanks for a lovely place for lunch with the family.“

“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.“

“I had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, the interior design was excellent and the service was very fast and warm. This is a great place for families , dates and girls night out ! Very elegant yet laid back.“

“We did a private party for our 50th wedding anniversary on 9/21/24. Everything was fantastic including the staff, the food and the atmosphere. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. June was super helpful. We grew up in the neighborhood and this was the perfect place. Highly recommend for a private party.“

“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.“

“The team here had it together! Food arrived with perfect timing, and was absolutely delicious! Such a relaxing environment with a great group of employees. Oh! Can’t forget about the “Elvis cheesecake” ohhhhmyyyylantaaaaaaaa 🤤 we WILL be back!“

“Nice bartender Great place“

“Front of house service is pretty poor. Takes forever to get your order. Doesn’t come
Check on you, no refills. The food is amazing. I took my mom for dinner and waited almost 45 minutes for them to come by. The kitchen staff is what brings people here. They’re the life of the place. The servers look miserable and are not friendly. Had to as the chef and the kitchen crew for more water and a box. 10/10 recommend the food and kitchen. The front of house could use some work.“

“Great food, great service“

“Great food and great portions. Like that they have a homemade dip for their homemade kettle chips…rather than just catsup.“

We’ve taken multiple friends here and everyone has agreed it’s awesome!“
