Giving it five stars because it's one of the few restaurants that I actually crave certain dishes from! Have been here numerous times and never had a bad experience or a bad meal.
I actually first tried the place because Michael Symon talked about their frites on the food network, so naturally I had to try them. I've had every version now - the more "naked" rosemary fries are amazing for potato purists - perfectly seasoned; the gravy fries are my personal favorite because the gravy is just deliciously flavored and a little extra salty, which I love; the animal frites are my hubby's favorite: gravy, mustard, cheese curds, a fried egg all smothering your fries - a complex blend of flavors, so indulgent.
I crave the kale salad - simple, fresh, and crispy. The Caesar salad is also amazing (I like extra garlic and I guess the chef does too!). The wings are to die for, as is the fried chicken (best I've ever had). The lamb burger is melt in your mouth delicious. Basically, it is really hard to not want to order the entire menu!! If they are offering a five course taster that night, definitely go for it.
They have a happy hour as well as a reverse happy hour (late night dining) that's a great way to avoid the big dinner crowd (smaller menu but still always delicious). Service is always on point, the wait staff want you to have a great dining experience and really know the menu well enough to recommend things based on your taste. I once got to sit at the kitchen "bar" (you literally sit right at the prep station) which was so much fun and helped us scope out meal ideas for next time! One of my favorite spots in Cleveland - highly recommend it and definitely ask your waiter to help you order if it's your first time.
