    18616-20 Detroit Ave., Lakewood Western Suburbs

    216-521-4413

    330-486-BLUE

    Perched on a hill overlooking the Ohio countryside, this rambling lodge offers a lovely backdrop for Executive Chef Brandt Evans' hearty American fare.

  • Clifton Martini & Wine Bar

    10427 Clifton Blvd. West Side/Ohio City/Tremont/Detroit Shoreway

    216-965-0221

    No pricey destination restaurant, Clifton attracts crowds with simple, appealing American fare, much of it served in large, sharable portions, along with craft beers, creative martinis, and fine wines.
  • Dave & Buster's

    25735 First St., Westlake Western Suburbs

    440-892-1415

    For those who have come to this entertainment complex primarily to play the state-of-the-art games and then find that the starship piloting, dinosaur dodging, and race-car driving have left them peckish, meals in the lavishly appointed Grand Dining Room are generally good-tasting, satisfying, and reasonably priced conveniences.

  • Gasoline Alley

    870 N. Cleveland-Massillon Rd., Bath Akron/Summit County

    330-666-2670

    The plastic and neon of the Montrose shopping district are two miles — and several decades — removed from this little roadhouse. But while the Alley's big menu of sandwiches, pizza and salads seems soothingly unfashionable, execution is above average, the car-themed decor is charming, and the attitude is hip.
  • Grumpy's Café

    2621 W. 14th St. Downtown/Flats/Warehouse District

    216-241-5025

    A devastating fire put Grumpy’s out of commission for two years, but owner Kathy Owad has resurrected the beloved Tremont café in a cozy new space. Serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, weekend brunch and late-night weekend dining, Grumpy’s pretty much has you covered morning, noon and night. Expect hearty plates of reasonably priced, stick-to-your-ribs comfort food served with cheerfulness.
  • The Harp

    4408 Detroit Ave. West Side/Ohio City/Tremont/Detroit Shoreway

    216-939-0200

    An Irish bar on steroids, the Harp isn’t just your corner joint with a few shamrocks on the wall. It boasts a large Irish-influenced menu and a spacious patio with a view of the lake. The music’s as likely to be rootsy rock or blues as Irish.

  • Heck's Café

    2927 Bridge St. West Side/Ohio City/Tremont/Detroit Shoreway

    216-861-5464

    Heading into its fourth decade, this charming Ohio City café remains a reliable, if non-trendy, refuge for lunch, dinner, or Sunday brunch, best enjoyed in the airy garden room, a mug of cinnamon-scented coffee at hand. While gourmet burgers are the specialty of the house, other options abound, including salads, wraps, steaks, and pastas.
  • Hudson's Restaurant and Catering

    80 N. Main St., Hudson Akron/Summit County

    330-650-1955

    Comfy, cozy, and family-friendly, Hudson's is a classic neighborhood restaurant, serving reasonably priced breakfast, lunch, and dinner fare, as well as libations from the full bar. While the owners' culinary chops are apparent in creations like Jamaican-spiced pork loin or bourbon-glazed salmon, the menu is far more homey than haute, with enough burgers, chicken, and meatloaf to satisfy even the least adventurous eater.
  • IHOP

    (216) 898-0298

    If you've ever doubted that toasty, gooey grilled cheese sandwiches are the universal comfort food, just check out this boisterous Lakewood bar, where the kitchen turns out more than two dozen scrumptious variations on the theme, and the clientele ranges from smiling grannies to pierced, inked, and also smiling local rockers. Impressive beer selection.

    12387 Cedar Rd., Cleveland Heights Eastern Suburbs

    216-795-0550

  • Pickwick & Frolic/Hilarities East 4th

    2035 East Fourth St. Downtown/Flats/Warehouse District

    216-241-7425

    A taste of Vegas in downtown Cleveland, this sprawling complex boasts four distinct vibes: pumping house music in the martini bar, national comedians in the Hilarities theater, an open kitchen and piled portions in the bright restaurant, and sequined performers in original revues at the cabaret.
  • Pufferbelly Restaurant & Bar

    152 Franklin Ave. Kent/Portage County

    330-673-1771

    Casual and unpretentious, the Pufferbelly has been bringing new travelers to Kent's landmark 1875 train station for more than two decades. The all-encompassing menu includes something for everyone, with varying degrees of success. But even if the restaurant can't claim to offer destination dining, as an occasional layover on life's travels, it generally fills the bill.
  • The South Side

    2207 W. 11th St. Downtown/Flats/Warehouse District

    216-937-2288

    The South Side doesn’t quite overload all the senses, but it stimulates them with exposed brick walls, a winding granite bar, local artwork that changes monthly, and four big plasma screens equipped with surround sound. After the kitchen closes, an upscale-casual crowd gather in the bar.
  • Washington Place Bistro & Inn

    2203 Cornell Rd. East Side/University Circle/Little Italy

    216-791-6500

    The former Baricelli Inn has been spruced up by new owner and hospitality pro Scott Kuhn, with a streamlined decor, a handsome bar and lounge, and a delightful menu of seasonal American dishes crafted with an eye toward local sourcing. Sunday brunch is a popular draw, as is the Wednesday-night prix fixe menu. In summer, the secluded patio is a delight.

  • West End Tavern

    18514 Detroit Ave., Lakewood Western Suburbs

    216-521-7684

    A venerable Lakewood tavern, complete with tin ceiling, wooden floors, and a well-worn bar, this neighborhood watering hole serves up booze, music, and more than a few made-from-scratch items — including burgers, pot roast, and the popular black-bean soup — during lunch, dinner, and weekend brunches.
