There is a lot of hype around Michael Symon's restaurants. And let me tell you, there is a reason for it!
PROS
-MEAT. Sorry vegetarians, this is not the place for you. IMO, the best thing on the menu is the brisket. When they ask you if you want lean or fatty, choose the fatty. It is melt-in-your-mouth fantastic. Meats are served by the 1/2 pound. My husband and I got 3 different types of meats, pig tails (rich but good) and 2 sides and that was more than enough (I took a small box of leftovers home).
-Family-style presentation. I am not sure if that's the correct term, but basically everything comes out on a big tray (at least when you order meats and sides). This makes it very easy to share and try a little bit of everything.
-Casual atmosphere. On a street where many of the restaurants require you to get a little dressed up, it's nice to have one where Tribe and Cavs gear is the norm.
-Prime People Watching. Score yourself a spot on the patio and you will be in the midst of the many people who walk down restaurant row.
CONS
-As I mentioned above, this is not the place for vegetarians or vegans.
-Depending on when you go, you may have a wait. They do not take reservations.
BOTTOM LINE
Quoting the gigantic sign in the restaurant, "EAT MORE MEAT"
