Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Cleveland East

The service and atmosphere are impeccable, although it is loud on a busy Saturday night. The roomy, plush seating is reminiscent of a high-end 1950’s Vegas steakhouse, and so nice in a time where so many other places have you practically sitting next to strangers. We ordered the Smashing Dan Dan dumplings for an appetizer. They were delicious, but tiny. We were hoping that wasn’t a sign of things to come, since we came hungry. It absolutely was not! My son had the Wagyu ribeye with chimichurri sauce, which was not only huge, but divine. It was expensive, of course, but he said it was the best meal he ever had! Husband ordered the whole Maine lobster mac and cheese, which was absolutely delicious; rich and creamy, and filled with sweet lobster. I had the duck two ways. The breast was so good; perfectly cooked and plentiful, and the eggplant and baby bok choy accompaniments were very nice. The crispy duck leg was a little dry and over-cooked, however. It was my husband’s birthday and he splurged on a couple tableside-prepared old-fashioneds. The presentation, by the bar manager, was as fabulous as the drink itself. We capped the night with the tableside presented bananas foster. Just delightful. The rum cakes made it the best bananas foster I’ve had. Our server couldn’t have been better. He was attentive, knowledgeable and very professional. We felt pampered throughout the night! All in all, we really loved it and will definitely be back.

Outstanding service and impeccable food Definitely recommend for any occasion

Beef braciole was amazing. Great service. Had a wonderful time with my husband celebrating my birthday

Sarah was a great waitress. We will be asking for her at our next visit.

The food was amazing! And the quiet ambiance enhanced the experience. The only disappointment was the coffee at the end. I would have expected a much smoother and less bitter choice by the restaurant.
