The food was absolutely delicious. We stopped in for a late lunch before going over to the Cleveland Museum of Art. They don't have an extensive menu, but our waitress was knowledgeable and gave us recommendations based on the items we were debating between. We ordered the spicy uptown sushi roll, the rice bowl, and the parallax burger with chili cheese fries.
The rice bowl was a large portion and delicious. However, my only complaint is the addition of cilantro. I found the cilantro to be over powering for the dish. I would recommend the bowl to anyone who enjoys a good deconstructed sushi dish, but I'd be cautious of the addition of cilantro unless you really enjoy cilantro.
The spicy uptown roll was fantastic and we recommend it if you have a taste for sushi or are looking to try it. It came with a standard 8 pieces for $12 which is roughly the same amount of food and price for rolls found in Chicago. All the ingredients were very fresh and light and could be tasted in every single bite. The spicy mayo was not over powering and allowed you to enjoy every piece.
We also recommend the chili cheese fries. The fries were crispy even under all the chili and cheese. The chili was hearty with a lot of flavor. The queso was lighter than a typical nacho cheese sauce. Once again the cilantro was present in this dish when it wasn't really needed.
Starting with the pickles skewered on top of the burger, they were exceptional. Definitely worth the price as a side. One of the biggest regrets, was not asking for more. They were very crunchy and fresh. The burger itself was cooked perfectly (medium) juicy, with thick pieces of bacon, and the rest of the components were in perfect ratio to the burger. A well put together burger.
The only reason we did not give it a full 5 stars was due to the price. Two meals plus an appetizer with no drinks (soda/or alcohol) made for a pricey casual lunch. Definitely recommend it to anyone, but be forewarned it can get pricey.
