After listening to my parents for 6 months talk about wanting to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary at XO Pepper Pike, I made a reservation for them to enjoy a great night out. They had good drinks and enjoyed the food, but the level of service was no different than a night out at 2 star restaurant. I noted the anniversary in the reservation and told an employee about the anniversary on the confirmation call. There was no mention of their special day by the hostess or server...not even a complimentary dessert or glass of champagne.
I would expect much more attention to detail from this type of establishment. I followed up with a note to XO with no reply to date. Cleveland has a booming food scene and I'm sorry I didn't read reviews to choose a place where they would receive 5-star treatment.
