You walk in and immediately you are taken back to the days when longshoremen needed a watering hole to wet their whistles after a long day on Lake Erie. This old westside neighborhood joint does not disappoint. Accompanied by vintage Cleveland sports memorabilia and general Americana nostalgia.
The food itself was a treat. Starting off with the honey chipotle tacos presents the palate with a sweet starter with a nice kick. Plus, the dish was featured on Guy Fieri's, Diners Drive-ins and Dives. Great dish.
For my main course I had the Cleveland Steak voted Cleveland's best Cheese Steak in 2007. Great flavor all around but a little steep in price for the size. Parkview also features local beers on tap from Great Lakes Brewing and other domestics.
Overall, Parkview is a local dive with a storied history with a great atmosphere and vibe. Great lunch and dinner spot for any foodie who dabbles in great bar food. Also, a solid live music spot on weekends.
