Steaks & Seafood, Menu

Wild, woodsy aromas suffuse this friendly little restaurant, where hickory smoking, slow cooking, and mesquite grilling are the order of the day.

6531 Brecksville Rd., Independence Western Suburbs

216-447-9277

European/Mediterranean

Bahama Breeze

3900 Orange Pl., Orange Village Eastern Suburbs

216-896-9081

American, Menu

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.

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.

Bravo! Cucina Italiana

28889 Chagrin Blvd., Woodmere Eastern Suburbs

216-360-0099

Italian, Menu

Reasonably priced, family-friendly dining inside an upscale, Disneyesque facsimile of ancient Roman ruins is this Columbus-based restaurant's claim to fame. The menu focuses on pasta, pizza, or wood-grilled meats; for dessert, the partially caramelized cheesecake, in a pool of crème anglaise, tastes like more.
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.

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.
