| - I was visiting Cleveland for the weekend and was searching for a place to eat on a Sunday night. We were in the down town area and came across Crop Bistro. We weren't quit sure where we wanted to eat, but we had read about the Sunday Supper which is a pre-fix meal including salad, entree and dessert for a reasonable $25. We called and the manager was very friendly and offered to e-mail us the menu for the night, which included several entree options for any discerning pallet of taste. After gazing at the menu, we decided to go for it.
It was a very chilly walk, but as we entered we were warmly welcomed. We sat down and the decor was vibrant with large photographs of veggies and fruit. We were promptly asked for our drink orders. We scanned over the drink list with a very high price tag, so we opted for water, which throughout the night was unfortunately slowly refilled.
To start off the Sunday Supper was a winter salad to share. It was delicious, especially the addition of beets. It also included goat cheese, pickled red peppers, apple, nuts, and some sort of vinaigrette. It was made for two large salads and we could have been satisfied with that. However, I quickly remembered about the salmon I had ordered.
The Tasmanian salmon was coated with what the menu called salsa verde. When I ordered, I was afraid I was get some Mexican dish, but the coating was actually very flavorful. It was made with green herbs and capers. The perfectly cooked salmon with crisp edges and a medium center was placed on top of diced celery root and extra virgin olive oil. When all of the flavors came together it was to die for. My boyfriend who says he doesn't like salmon even liked it.
He got the beef ribs smothered with pan gravy. It was also great. Along side the entrees there was also an additional side item to share. It was a heaping portion of buttery mashed potatoes with chunks of carrots mixed in. They were also good and made a nice accompaniment to the meal.
To finish off the meal was a slice of pumpkin pie. While the whipped cream was absolutely delicious flavored with a hint of ginger, there was too much. We found half of ours on the side of our plates.
Make sure to visit the restroom! Next to the sink was a basket of locally made soap cut into individual use pieces. It was great; the woman's restroom and some earthy smelling soap, while the man's had pumpkin.
Over all the dining experience was great, except for the unengaged cold shoulder server who was slow to refill our water. If I am ever in Cleveland on a Sunday, you will find me at Crop!!
