In two words, Absolutely Beautiful. I stopped in after spending an extremely hot afternoon Downtown Cleveland for happy hour. A good friend and I popped in as storm clouds rolled in from the West.
Back to Absolutely Beautiful. The bar from the outside looked like a mini-castle to me. Glimpsed the patio from the street and immediately wanted to sit with a bottle of wine, chess board, and comrade. We stepped into the bar as the rain was coming. Love love love all wooden bars. This one looks as if its been hand-carved from a few giant Sequoia trees.
Wait staff and bartenders were charming and perfectly attentive. I drank Smithwick's and perused the menu. Immediately realizing that I only wanted an appetizer. Everything looked good, yet large and pricey. Ordered the 4oz Filet with Corn Salsa. Was cooked perfectly and tasted really good. Hit the spot with a couple beers.
Crowd is upscale, mature-adult, and locals from the Gordon Square area hang around as well. I will definitely return to try out the patio as well as more of their menu.
