In the last few months, I have become a regular at this restaurant. You will be hard-pressed to find an Italian spot in the area or anywhere on the west side of Cleveland that is as good. Joe, the owner and chef, is a master of bringing out flavors. I have eaten a lot of the food on their menu and have yet to have a bad dish. The ones that standouts for me are the Warm Mushroom Salad, the Lobster Ravioli, the Sea Bass, and his Ribeye Steak.
The Warm Mushroom Salad might be my favorite salad ever. The savoriness of the mushrooms, the sweet tartness of the dried cranberries and the creaminess of the goat cheese just blend so well. Love it.
The lobster ravioli is so great. The cream sauce and hint but not overpowering flavor of lobster make a great combination. Best thing is you can get this as a meal or as an appetizer!
Their sea bass is simple yet amazing. Joe knows how to highlight the bring out the flavors of this fish without going overboard with seasoning.
The ribeye...oh man. If you like a well-marbled and aged steak, this is where you should go. I recommend getting it blackened. The flavor is amazing and I have never finished the whole thing (and I can eat). So good!
I rarely eat at the same restaurant more than once a month and I eat here almost every week (which from Berea is a bit of a drive). I strongly recommend this place.
