Been here only twice - live about 1/2 hour away, but each time they treated our large group AWESOMELY! Food is GREAT - even has an area on menu for Vegans! LARGE amount of food for the money! Awesome deal with pitchers of margaritas! Service is prompt - no one feels left out - my group can be kinda picky, too! Was SO enjoyable both times we went there!! From walking in to leaving you feel welcomed, serviced impeccably and you WANT to go back!!

My BHS friends and I spent almost every Friday night,for years, at Geraci's..we still congregate there when in Cleveland....I was last there three years ago and 90-plus year old Mr. Geraci was outside using a leaf blower. I estimate that my friends and I put two of his five kids thru college. !!!!!! BEST PIZZA!!!!!!!!!!!! mandatory stop every time I go back to Ohio!!!

Nice tables and bar outside - enjoyable on nice days! Service for our big group wasn't real great, went to see if there was a problem, - no problems after that! Nice music inside, too!
livsmama06 commented on First look: Ohio City Burrito
Any place that has guacamole included in the burrito is my kinda place! The people who work there are very helpful and welcoming. I also support places that are mom/kid friendly, so I love that they offer a child size burrito and no one minded my three year old getting up and dancing in the middle of the place! Great place for lunch!

One bite and you will never go anywhere else! The food here is amazing and a fabulous value. From the moment you step inside the aromas of curry, tikka, and a meld of bold spices hits you and doesnt stop. By far some of the best Indian food I have had and authentic. Be sure to grab a mango lasse as it will help cool the spice from your food and its so delicious! If you have not tried this place, it is a must!

A group of us ate here on 10/17/09. Most of us ordered the Clambake fixings. Well, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT go there to eat food for a Clambake. It was terrible.Here's the reasons why: 1)Sweet potato was overcooked or something...very soggy like mush...several people complained about this. 2)one person just wanted 2 dozen clams, that's it...the waiter brought her one dozen clams and then later brought her the other dozen and the chicken, corn and sweet potato..3)speaking of corn on the cob..isn't it supposed to be sweet? To me, it was not sweet at old..the corn could have been 6 months old..that's what it tasted like..yuk! 4)The restaurant is not HANDICAPPED friendly. I saw a ramp that went into the restaurant but as far as the women's bathrooms, it was not HANDICAPPED accessible (with handles on the wall or even room for a wheelchair to get in).Look out Mr. Carl Monday, this is an EYETEAM exclusive..State of Ohio requires that a place of establishment, such as a restaurant that serves food must provide a HANDICAP facility (bathroom) for their patrons. 5)Also, there were too many steps to go up and down to get to the other side of the restaurant..What's that all about? 6)Forgot that several of the patrons in the group mentioned that the chicken was not cooked inside. This is not good because of food poisoning issues! 7) A few people ordered pork chops or something porky and there were issues with that as well. I am not sure what the problem was there but I know there was dissatisfaction. 8) Also, since WHEN does the State of Ohio REQUIRE that a restaurant include the gratuity (tip for you simple readers) in the bill? Isn't the TIP supposed to be the customers' decision? It's not like the required SALES TAX or anything, is it? So my review for this restaurant is an F minus..I don't think a restaurant can get any lower than that. Most of the people in the group took their food home. The majority of the people in the group were DISGUSTED with the food and will never go there for dinner again! Look out Carl Monday, I think you have a hot story here!
FitForAKingsley wrote about Luigi's Restaurant
On the last night I lived in Akron, I thought to myself "choose your restaurant carefully..." As the story goes, Luigi's was on my short list of places that I would miss when I moved away and unfortunately, it was not my pick for that night. More than two years have passed since that night, and it is a decision that still haunts me. Don't get me wrong, I did in fact enjoy the dinner that I had... but I have yet to find a pizza joint that really gets me going the Luigi's did. From the simple Italian dressing on the salad to the plethura of distractions on the walls challenging my attention deficit disorder every minute... this place was the perfect pizzeria.
FitForAKingsley wrote about Touch Supper Club
I fell in love with Touch at first bite... I took many friends back to this restaurant... but NEVER again! A few weeks ago, I took two couples to this restaurant and I was embarrassed. First of all, when we made our reservation, we requested a cozy table at the front or the back. Instead, we had two bar tables pushed together. Next, the server was barely competent--at best. She read the specials from a sheet of paper and when asked about the soup she said "if I had to guess, I would say the tomato bisque." When we were ordering drinks, we asked about separate checks (for 3 couples) and she said "I'll try." The wine presentation was non existent. She talked badly about other customers. We ordered appetizers (which took 20 minutes) and when they came out, the frites were cold. After waiting another 20 minutes for our entrees, the server approached us and said "okay, I talked to the kitchen and I just want to let you know... I asked how long it was going to take and he said 15 or 20... so 15 or 20 more minutes. Apparently they are slammed." Twenty minutes later, two entrees came out. Then we waited for another five minutes before three more entrees came out. Five minutes later the last entree, the hangar steak--ordered medium rare, arrived. As I said earlier, I have been to this place several times and have often used the phrase "the best steak in Cleveland." Apparently, they forgot about the steak and instead of owning it and doing it right the first time, they slapped it on the grill for a minute each side, sliced it up and sent it out still ice cold in the middle. We spoke with a manager about the service and food, explaining that we had brought our friends here from Chicago, and he was apologetic and compensated us very nicely. When it was time to pay, we had a few gift certificates that we received as gifts (because friends knew we LOVED this place) and apparently we were only able to use one per table... which would have been fine. The manager approached us and said "it says 'only one per table' but I'll use three" and gave two back to us. My friend said to me "you can keep them, because I won't be back" (because she lives in Chicago) and the manager said "Fine, then I'll only use one then" and walked away. Had it been left it at "I'm sorry, it says only one per table," I would think 'okay, one bad experience, they made up for it, it's still a great place.' However, the reaction of the manager was the icing on the cake for a horrible and embarrassing experience.

Always an amazing experience. Great food and exceptional service! Would recommend Sergio's or Sarava to anyone
daveworkman wrote about John Palmer's Bistro 44
I passion my dining experiences on familiar comfort style foods with an upscale twist. John Palmer's is exactly this. Awesome menu and food, with a low key atmosphere. I love the restaurant and cannot get enough. The staff exceeds our expectations with there friendly and highly professional attitude. Try the Kitchen Bar as well on a Friday or Saturday night around 7-8pm for a good show.

SoccerCFB02 wrote about Salmon Run
My fiancé and I decided to try this restaurant on our monthly date night. We wanted a nice steak dinner. There are many complaints with this place and very few good things to say. While seated for a quiet dinner there was a large group of around 30 people in the middle of the dinning room drinking and talking as if they were in a bar and no body asked them to sit at their tables. This was very distracting as our table was very close to this group. So we ordered or dinners and I asked for my steak well done, it came medium-rare. So I send it back. 15 minutes later it comes back, maybe medium, So I send it back. Another 15 minutes later it comes back done and extremely tough. I know it can be hard to make a good well-done steak but if Applebee’s can do it, this nice fancy place should be able too... So anyways I get my steak and my fiancé is done with his (which was under cooked too and he only ate about half of it because of that). Management didn't give us anything off of our bill or dessert for this major inconvenience so we left and got dessert somewhere else. So long story short, that will definitely be our first and last visit to any of the Sawmill Creek Resorts restaurants!!!
Hypercrew wrote about Umami Asian Kitchen
Who could ask for anything more. My wife an I love eating out, we travel to the near west side often for good food from real chefs. Now we have Chef Matt at Umami. We are so happy a hip, adventurous place finally came all the way out east. The decor, the soundtrack, the menu, it all works. The service is brilliant, our waitress Nikki was engaging and very well versed with Umami's offerings. We have gone a few times now and have yet to come away disappointed. It's good to finally have an eating destination in Chagrin Falls.
VCEMCIBMET commented on First look: Umami Asian Kitchen
I have been frequenting Michael Longos's ML on 306, then I discovered Umami, have never been dissapointed in either one. Umami cuisine is sui generis, delicious and challenging. I like to go there to be surprised. The atmosphere is intimate. I read a comment of someone who was "dissapointed" because they did not have a high chair. Perhaps we should classify Umami for the sophisticated with a sophisticated palate...,not for the meat loaf and potato type.

I've been to Anatolia 4 times and it has been consistently excellent. I've taken friends from DC and San Francisco and they raved about it. Good change of pace place.
Julia528657524 wrote about Umami Asian Kitchen
Last I heard Mike Longo is no longer the chef. That's probably why the bad review was written.... I had a fantastic dining experience early this summer when Mike was still in the kitchen.
