440-333-4686

American

This warm sports bar hosts live rock and blues when major games aren't commanding attention.
Bearden's

19985 Lake Rd., Rocky River Western Suburbs

440-331-7850

American

Since 1948, this casual diner has been a part of West-Side life: so long, most residents can't recall a time when it wasn't dishing up burgers, onion rings, and milkshakes. A recent closure gave management the time to renovate the entire space, resulting in a fresh, vintage-tinged design that neatly fits with the retro menu. Here, thin, diner-style burgers, crisp onion rings, and thick milkshakes rule the roost. Fried clam fans will find some of the best in town.
Bubba's Q

820 Center Rd., Avon Western Suburbs

440-937-7859

Barbecue

Former Browns player Al “Bubba” Baker has discovered life beyond the gridiron — and it’s dry-rubbed, slow-smoked, and slathered with homemade BBQ sauce. While Bubba’s St. Louis-style ribs are meaty monsters, his boneless baby-back rib “steak” is one for the record books, deboned by a secret process and tender enough to cut with a fork.

Cleats Strongsville

15147 Pearl Rd., Strongsville Western Suburbs

440-572-4772

American

A snug little hideaway just behind the Q, Cleats is part of a rapidly growing local chain of sports bars. Wings are the kitchen's claim to fame, but we've got our eyes on the fries — fresh-cut cuties so good, we sometimes order them without the cheese and bacon.
Corleone's Ristorante & Bar

5669 Broadview Rd., Parma Western Suburbs

216-741-0220

Italian

If “youthful” and “edgy” are what it takes to toss your trenne, this snug little restaurant at the far end of a Parma strip plaza may not be your kind of place. But if good-tasting Italian fare, brought forth in large portions at reasonable prices, is what makes your Alfredo creamy, look no further than the dimly lit Corleone’s.

Full bar, live music on weekends.
