Very hip new chic restaurant located in the Westin (formerly the Crowne Plaza) in downtown CLE. Idea of restaurant is to serve as much locally grown and raised produce and beef as possible. The decor was awesome, as the tables were picnic table like and the lights and wall decor were really interesting. While siting at our table waiting for waitress, a very bubbly lady pushing the cheese cart came by and told us all about the choices, which we were sold on and tried 3 varieties (at $6 per selection) Well worth it as she paired something with each cheese and used the terms "explode in your mouth" and "Flavor orgasm" which put the selections over the top.
Was then educated on the differences between grass fed and grain fed beef and ordered the 12 oz strip steak and the twice baked potato for side. The sides are large enough to share and the steak needed no additional seasoning or flavor. Was AMAZING! I do enjoy a good steak on occasion, and this trip quickly vaulted the Urban Farmer to the top of the list.
Wait staff, bartender and cheese expert were very friendly and were constantly at our table despite going on a Saturday evening. It's not cheap, but you pay for good quality and we will surely return to this gem.
