This is my favorite restaurant in Cleveland!! If anyone asked for a recommendation for a special occasion, this would be the first place i'd recommend. On a clear night, I love the view of the lake and downtown Cleveland across the water. The ambiance is very laid-back and relaxed. The service is excellent and the wait staff is always willing to help or recommend favorite dishes.
We came here most recently for my brother's birthday. We started out with soups/salads and martinis. I had the Red Delicious Martini which tasted exactly like the name states. I shared the Lobster Bisque and Poached Pear Salad with my mom and sister. The lobster bisque was very rich and had nice, large chunks of lobster and was fantastic. The pear salad was great with caramelized pecans and goat cheese and dressed to perfection.
For my entree, I had the Seared Scallops which were out of this world. They were cooked perfectly and the spaghetti squash and sweet potato puree that accompanied the scallops were equally spectacular.
Our waitress gave us a free birthday dessert for my brother, despite telling her that we were going home for dessert. It was a chocolate mousse that was very good.
I can't say enough good things about this place!!
