. "First time visiting Cleveland and what a delight to find two of Chef Simon's restaurants here. We sadly missed our 5:30 reservation and had to sit at the bar (but made it just in time for the happy hour specials). \n\nI ordered the mussels off the HH menu. The mussels were good but on the smaller side. But the sauce was delicious with flavors of cumin & curry. Sadly, the mussels didn't come with fries or bread so I couldn't enjoy the broth more. \n\nThe seafood stew was wonderful and a dream for a seafood lover as it had octopus, squid, mussels, clams, and shrimp. You can also choose a side, and I opted for the polenta with mascarpone cheese. FULL of umami flavor and yet so rich at the same time. It was more grits-based than other log-form polenta I had before. \n\nLolita really lived up to my expectations of Chef Simon's cuisine - clean, flavorful, and complete!"^^ . . "0"^^ . . "0"^^ .
