Right in the Playhouse Square Theatre district, the place is going to kill it! Another fine Zack Bruell spot featuring modern French cuisine in a historic space.
My wife and I went before a recent CPH show, during Cleveland Independent Restaurant week. We decided to stick with the Prix Fixe menu available, so we could sample a number of different dishes (our favorite way to eat!).
Our starter course consisted of a wonderful salad and a hearty / rustic tomato soup. Both had a lovely presentation and the flavors were unique and delicious.
On to the main courses! Wife chose the blackened cod fillet and I chose the glazed pork tenderloin. Again, beautiful and artful presentations of the dishes with flavors to match. Cod was blackened perfectly set atop vegetables with a surrounding sauce. My pork was grilled to a medium rare with a smokey sauce drizzled on top.served on top of wilted greens.
Finally, dessert...she chose the raspberry torte and I selected the hazelnut cheesecake. The torte was cobbler-like with a crisp crust and tart berries and served ala mode style. My cheesecake had the look of a flan with a delicous graham cracker crust.
The meal was fantastic, service attentive and the server quite knowledgeable about every dish and even the building and its history. Will most definitely consider for future before-Playhouse meals.
