Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Broadview Heights anymore! You definitely get the feeling you're in a more trendy neighborhood looking at the menu at Cork and Cleaver.
We came here on my birthday because I've been itching to try this place and thought this would be the perfect excuse. We walked in and were immediately seated at a table near the door (they said the other room was very cold and we would be much more comfortable here on that frigid evening).
I ordered the masons mule drink and really enjoyed the Orange flavor mixing with the whisky and ginger beer. I enjoyed it so much that I ended up ordering another one (hey it's my birthday right?)
For appetizers, we got the fries with sausage gravy and the chicken and waffles. I think the fries could have been cooked longer; they were floppy and cold in the middle, but I really liked the gravy. The chicken and waffles had an interesting texture but the flavors were spot on.
I saw the pictures of the chicken and Mac and cheese before I got there and knew that is what I had to order... I was not disappointed! The chicken was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside and seasoned perfectly. The pasta was delicious; the honey drizzle worked so well with the cheese and added something different to the dish.
The service could have been a little bit better... I think our waiter was confused since my boyfriend was late arriving (the snowstorm got the best of traffic that night) and didn't ask my parents and me if we wanted to place an appetizer order while we waited. We finally flagged him down and asked. He was just very awkward and made strange comments the whole night that were probably supposed to be jokes but just sounded strange.
I wouldn't mind trying this restaurant out again, especially in nicer weather when the patio can be used!
