    (216) 229-1171

  • Accent Cleveland

    11460 Uptown Ave. East Side/University Circle/Little Italy

    216-721-8477

  • Bahama Breeze

    3900 Orange Pl., Orange Village Eastern Suburbs

    216-896-9081

    Although the kitchen at this Caribbean-themed restaurant (part of the Darden Restaurants chain) tends to keep the heat turned down, much of the food — such as pressed Cuban sandwiches, butterflied coconut prawns, pan-seared pork tenderloin in a rummy demiglace — is flavorful and attentively prepared. Still, the real draw is the bustling bar scene, fueled by shooters, beer, and boozy, fruity, and frozen concoctions designed to make every night feel like a week at the beach.
  • Bass Lake Taverne

    426 South St., Chardon Mentor/Lake County

    440-285-3100

    Casual, cozy, and with a splendid secluded patio for warm-weather dining, this upscale tavern offers everything from burgers and ribs to filet mignon and veal medallions. The surrounding countryside is charming, and getting there on the winding Geauga County roads is almost half the fun.
  • Beachclub Grill

    9853 Johnnycake Ridge Rd, Concord Mentor/Lake County

    440-350-0088

  • Billy's Martini Bar

    7338 Industrial Park Blvd. Mentor/Lake County

    440-585-8815

  • Bistro 185

    991 E. 185th St. Eastern Suburbs

    216-481-9635

    Neighbors have thanked owners Marc and Ruth Levine for "not being another wing-and-beer joint," while others appreciate them for not being too upscale. Bistro 185 takes the glorious middle road, offering hearty made-from-scratch comfort dishes at blue-collar prices.
  • Brennan's Colony

    2299 Lee Rd., Cleveland Hts. Eastern Suburbs

    216-371-1010

    Still our pick for one of the best dinner values in town, Brennan's manages to combine the vibe of a well-worn bar with the quality of a contemporary bistro. While the kitchen does right by burgers, steaks, and sandwiches, the real thrills are the daily specials — full-meal deals ranging from porkchops, fresh fish, chicken and pasta, pegged at $22 or less.

  • Buffalo Wild Wings

    26200 Harvard Rd, Warrensville Hts Eastern Suburbs

    (216) 896-9464

  • Burntwood Tavern

    504 E. Washington St., Chagrin Falls Eastern Suburbs

    440-318-1560

    A tried-and-true combo of handsome surroundings and familiar fare makes this snug Chagrin Falls tavern a popular neighborhood spot.
  • The Cabin

    28810 Lake Shore Blvd., Willowick Mentor/Lake County

    440-943-5195

    True to its name, the Cabin looks like a cabin inside and out. Lounge acts play in the bar, where couples cut a rug after the dinner crowd thins out.
  • California Pizza Kitchen

    25365 Cedar Rd., Lyndhurst Eastern Suburbs

    216-382-4907

    Clean, casual and family-friendly, this gourmet pizza parlor (part of a large, California-based chain) is the best bet for dining with the little ones while at Legacy Village.
  • Cedarland at the Clinic

    9491 Euclid Ave. East Side/University Circle/Little Italy

    216-791-6606

    A clean, casual Lebanese-American eatery across from the Cleveland Clinic, Cedarland has a large menu of Middle Eastern standards, including shishtawook, baked fish, and falafel. Lots of choices for vegetarians. There's a small imported-foods market too.
  • Christopher's Pub

    1318 Warrensville Center Rd, Cleveland Hts Eastern Suburbs

    216 465 1770

  • City Works

    10 Park Avenue, Suite 106, Orange Village Eastern Suburbs

    440-561-6100

  • Claddagh Irish Pub

    25389 Cedar Rd., Lyndhurst Eastern Suburbs

    216-691-0534

    While real pubs are woven into the fabric of a neighborhood, you’ll find Claddagh (part of a national chain) adrift in the middle of a parking lot, surrounded by a shopping mecca. Once you're inside, though, evocative decor, friendly service and a multipage menu of well-prepared dishes, including a standout version of fish ’n’ chips, help soften the blow. Nor does it hurt that the full bar carries a solid selection of draft beers as well as every Irish whiskey available in the U.S.
  • Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant

    27200 Harvard Road, Orange Village Eastern Suburbs

    N/A

  • Corky & Lenny's

    27091 Chagrin Blvd., Woodmere Eastern Suburbs

    216-464-3838

    Despite its bright new decor, Corky & Lenny's remains that most venerable of urban eating establishments: a good Jewish deli. From garlicky dills waiting at each table to the fizzy chocolate phosphates, all the traditional noshes are on hand. Corned beef is lean and flavorful, latkes are fat and tender, and the creamy cheesecake may be the best in town.

  • The Diner on 55th

    1328 E. 55th St. East Side/University Circle/Little Italy

    216-361-0550

    A visit to Jim Anagnostos's shiny silver diner is a nostalgic trip back through time, to the days of all-American meals like meatloaf and gravy, liver and onions, and classic chili.
  • Fisher's Tavern

    718 SOM Center Rd., Mayfield Eastern Suburbs

    440-473-4414

    Except for the Saturday-only prime rib dinner, there is nothing fancy about this comfy little restaurant and bar. But Fisher's is still immensely popular with area workers for its big sandwiches and salads, as well as homemade soups and desserts. After 5 p.m., entrées like ribs, New York strip steak, and fettuccine Alfredo are also available. If you can, get a table on the charming enclosed sunporch. Or, in warm weather, eat on the shaded deck.
  • Gamekeeper's Taverne

    87 West St., Chagrin Falls Eastern Suburbs

    440-247-7744

    If you think everything fades after three decades, check out this mainstay of the East Side dining scene, where the seasonal menu of well-crafted cuisine remains reliably, vibrantly up-to-date. Summer lunches on the shady, tree-lined patio are a high point of the season; in the winter, several fireplaces make for cozy indoor dining.
  • Giovanni's Pizza & Pub

    30829 Euclid Ave., Willowick Mentor/Lake County

    440-278-4022

    Pizza, Drinks, Live Music, Dancing, Pool: “Giovanni’s: The Happiest Place in Town!” Absolutely the best pizza in NEO!

  • Handel's Homemade Ice Cream

    19935 Center Ridge Rd., Rocky River Northern OH

    (440) 695-0162

  • Hyde Park Prime Steakhouse

    26300 Chagrin Blvd. (in the Clarion Hotel), Beachwood Eastern Suburbs

    216-464-0688

    HPP's Beachwood location is big, manly and urbane, with all the trappings of an upscale midwestern steakhouse. Happily, the food — shrimp cocktails, Kobe beef burgers and of course, thick, juicy steaks — is as satisfying as the setting, and the place is as popular for after-work unwinding as it is for weekend splurges.
  • J. Alexander’s Restaurant

    5845 Landerbrook Dr., Lyndhurst Eastern Suburbs

    440-449-9131

    Yes, it’s part of a national group of Nashville-based restaurants. But J. Alexander’s still gets the nod for intelligently conceived and well-prepared food, served in a gimmick-free atmosphere. Prices are right, portions are huge, and the slowly roasted prime rib is probably Cleveland’s finest.
