Burntwood Tavern (BWT) is a nice place for lunch, dinner or drinks with appetizer in Rocky River. I would place the BTW somewhere above the typical national cookie cutter chains like Applebees and Yard House but not quite at the level of white table cloth pricey restaurants where you would expect to drop a few Ben Franklin's for dinner. The Rocky River location has a cool rustic look taking advantage of the old Beachcliff movie theater bones. Great looking bar and covered patio set the stage for a fun casual dinning experience.
A well rounded selection of beers in tap from local, regional, national and a few imports should satisfy most hop fans. There is a full service bar with a tempting looking Sunday Bloody Mary station for the mixed drink fans.
My wife and I decided to have a few apps and salad for our Sunday lunch. The Tuna Nachos have become one of our favorites with crispy nachos and nice serving of tuna. The garnish and sauce on the nachos compliment the tuna without stealing the spotlight. Our second app of firecracker Shrimp were also very good, nice heat and side dipping sauce, but the plating was a bit dull. We also ordered a Field Green Salad that we told our waitress we would be splitting between the two of us. The kitchen split our salad onto two plates when served up to us, appreciated touch.
