Very cool place and very sorry it’s on the East Side of the city, rather than a bit closer to home! Though their menu wasn’t huge, they had a little of everything and the portions are huge. The entrees don’t come with a salad or side, so I ordered a house salad and was shocked […]

I’m not sure how to even begin with regarding Palazzo except….OMG this place is AMAZING, particularly only having been open since June 1 of this year! I happened across an article (attached) on Cleveland.com talking about how the owner had driven by this old, very sad looking building, in a not so great area and […]

Tucked into a sad, mostly empty strip center at the corner of W. 130th and Sprague (the space formerly occupied by #1 Pho), Bistro on 130 may very well be the best thing that has happened to that area in……well – EVER! Absolutely amazing – in fact, it was so good that we are really […]

Polpetta was somewhat of a letdown. I can’t say that it was “bad” exactly; just not someplace we’d be anxious to re-visit. As I’ve said many times – there are way too many REALLY good restaurants out there to go back to one that was just “okay”. A positive was that our server Ashley, was […]

We had such high hopes for this Italian place and in spite of the rave reviews it’s received, we were slightly disappointed. Formerly a private house, it felt like a quaint little place to dine. In spite of it’s size, and the fact that there aren’t too many tables, it doesn’t feel cramped. On this […]

Prior to becoming Amici’s, this place (located right at the corner of Rt. 82 and W. 130th in a non-descript strip center) had been many things – none of which we had ever taken notice of before, nor would we have even given this a second glance had it not been for someone dropping off […]

Café Piccolo was an outstanding, relatively new Italian restaurant we practically stumbled across when we visited Heck’s Café a couple of weeks ago and decided (given our love for Italian food) that we just had to try it. It was almost a joke between us to see which one of us would pick it first. […]

Coco Bella Grille occupies the space formerly held by Peppermill. Though the owner is the same, they have decided to take things a little more “upscale”. When we visited, they had only been “re-branded” for approximately 2 months, so I will forgive some of the issues and chalk it up to the learning curve (hopefully). […]

Formerly a Mexican restaurant (can’t remember which chain); this neat little casual Italian restaurant has taken over the space, but while it looks tiny from the outside; it’s actually quite spacious inside with a huge bar and deck in the back. They’ve only been open since November, 2016 but seem to have caught on already […]

We didn’t realize how long 3 Brothers had been open, but have passed it several times without giving it much thought. In fact, we didn’t even know it was a dine-in restaurant. We assumed it was takeout pizza and MAYBE sandwiches. Wow, were we mistaken. It’s located in the strip center on Pearl Road where […]
