Grovewood Tavern is a small restaurant/bar hidden in a quiet neighborhood in northeast Cleveland. I had never heard of it before being given a strong recommendation from a co-worker. After going there for dinner, I'm surprised that more people don't talk about it.
The dining room is relatively small and the wine selection is large. The menu is moderately priced ($20-$30 for a dinner entree) and there is quite a variety of entrees to choose from. Some of the more unique menu choices are the bison sandwich and a duck entree prepared with a cherry sauce. I ordered the blackened diver scallops, which were perfectly cooked in a delicious cream sauce. I thought the side of cheddar mashed potatoes mixed with chorizo sausage was a good complement to the tender and tasty scallops. The lava chocolate cake was a great way to finish the meal.
If you drive on I-90 through northeast Cleveland, stop by this place sometime. You won't be disappointed.
