Would I eat there again- yes

Billy's is a classic Martini Bar located in Mentor. It is hidden back in a business lot so it is a…read morebit tricky to find and parking is hard to get if you come on the weekend. The outside of the bar has a swanky vibe to it with : couches with pillows, fireplace, and even igloos in the winter time. I went here Friday night with a friend to get cocktails and have a good conversation. Upon entering, we were so confused. I hadn't been here in a few years and the inside looked so different to when I have been here previously. Right when we walked in there was a band playing right by the entrance door performing which is kinda cool but it was SOOOO loud I couldn't hear my friend the entire time even though I was sitting next to her at the bar. We didn't know we needed reservations to come here and get a table so we got stuck at the bar. I liked the idea of a band performing but c'mon we want to be able to hear each other talk. The bartender was right across from us taking drink orders and I could barely hear him either. I was even more confused when I couldn't hear him explain why I was double charged. It's Wednesday today I'm writing this review and went last Friday and my credit card still hasn't been refunded from that double charge. I have called Billy's and left a voicemail to speak with someone who can fix this issue and never got a call back. I even went in yesterday, on Tuesday after work to see if I could speak to a manager in person since no one had returned my call. I get there and there's one person working there and said the manager wasn't in but he took my info and told me the manager would give me a call that day... well that hasn't happened at all. It's such an inconvenience to not only be charged twice but to have to drive out of my way to try to get a refund for their mistake. It makes me not want to come back as I'm frustrated. The drinks are very good but strong! They have a lot of options for martinis. I did get the S'more's one to start and my friend did also neither of us liked it. It was ridiculously chocolate-y and tasted like straight espresso. I would expect that from an espresso martini but not smores. My friend loves espresso martinis but she didn't like it. I did order the Blueberry Lemonade one I believe it was called and it was delicious. I do recommend that one! I would love to come here again for some good martinis however not getting a response back from the manager or staff member hoping to resolve my issue with double charging me is frustrating to say the least.

We walked in there and no one would say anything to us. Also, the Christmas in July advertising on facebook was very misleading. So we decided to sit at the bar and we sat there for 20 minutes while people who got there after us got served and we never did. We tried to get their attention multiple times but they never came over us. Keep in mind the 5 of us were taking up half the bar and nobody cared to greet or serve us. We ended up leaving because we were so frustrated and thirst.

The food was excellent. The ambiance was good but small and noisy. The service was good but…read moresomewhat uninformed. "Hook and Hoof" has been in downtown Willoughby for quite a while so they must be doing something right. And the fact that there aren't that many high level dining establishments in the Willoughby area helps. The first thing I noticed was the facility is very narrow which lends to a crowded feel. And all you need is one overly boisterous table (which was right next to us) and the noise level can be overwhelming. The server we had for the evening was very pleasant. She did a good job being timely with everything. But, it was odd that she often did not listen to an entire request (or maybe just couldn't hear) before walking away. There were a couple of requests for simple standard items that she wasn't even sure they had. I just found it odd. The food however was excellent. The kitchen staff did an exemplary job all night. I had a marvelous cocktail from the well stocked bar. And my double cut pork chop was fantastic. So full of flavor, juicy, cooked exactly as I requested. The sides that accompanied it were just tender enough without being mushy. And my banana cream pie was great. Overall, I give "Hook and Hoof" a solid 4. I definitely can see us going back. They deserve another try. You should give them a try and see for yourself.

The prices were astronomical so my daughter and I just ordered meatballs and potato wedges. I really wanted fish but there was only ONE fish dish on the menu and I didn't like how it was going to be prepared. There's a big disclaimer at the bottom of the menu that says "no substitutions or modifications". Geez, for a $40 fish plate you couldn't have modified it for me?? The meatballs were good, but came out luke warm. The wedges were good. The atmosphere was nice. For 3 meatballs, 5 potato wedges, and a 15% tip (she lost 5% due to not asking us for drinks) our bill came to $45. I *wish* I was joking. We won't be back. I honestly feel like I just got ripped off.

When you pull up it looks like a dive from the 1960's or a small Soviet bloc, not many windows and just a square little building, but you come inside and the people are inviting and friendly and the food is out of this world.

Their toilet has an awesome Andrew Warhol version of Misney there which is just a chefs kiss added touch to this place. 5 stars hands down

We were in the mood for a good burger and we saw that this place had been voted "Best Burger in…read moreCleveland!" So we figured we'd try it out! If we were not looking for this place specifically, I know we would've driven right past it! It's a standalone little building and the only markings I saw outside was a little sign that said BAR. But it was 2 o'clock on a Saturday afternoon and there were several cars in the parking lot, which is a good sign. The inside is really tiny. There's a large U-shaped bar and about six tables. We looked in the menu and opted for their famous Smashburger. It is $14 and comes with fries. It is a double patty cheeseburger. I did not want a burger that big so I opted for just one Patty. They said that was no problem, but the price was still the same. I also got onion rings, which were $3 more. The food came out really fast and you could tell it came right out of the fryer because the french fries were super hot! This place is called a dive bar, and I guess it is - but on a Saturday afternoon, the place was filled with all kinds of people. On one side of us was a family with little kids. On the other side of us was a couple in their 20s. And then the rest of the place was filled with people from every age group. I have to say that the music they play there is fabulous! But back to the food. The burger was seasoned really well! It is a smash burger, but they're still able to make it crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Our server was really good. She did not hover, but she was around to see if you need anything. Depending on the vibe that you're looking for, if you want more of a bar vibe, you should go in the evening, but we were happy to just be in a relaxed little joint with good food. They opened up another Crowley's in Painesville so we will probably have to try that one too.

IMPRESSIVE PLACE…read more Wow, I'm flabbergasted. I had an apartment in Willoughby in the 90s and it wasn't a bar back then. I'll tell you they're open early. I had a wonderful Smashburger for 14 with blue cheese. They open at 11 AM. It's here in downtown Willoughby the historic section. It's attached to an old train car that Marilyn and JFK rode in. Wow. It's very nice to walk in off the dining room which was the old round house for the train. This is an impressive place. I can't believe I've never been, the bartender and owner are fantastic. Owner is a big hockey fan I was talking to him about Derek Sanderson. He's from Boston. Five stars all the way I'll come here every time passing through. Just take the lost nation Road exit & your way back there.

We also got the spud skins and I would absolutely get them again. Our waitress checked in every so often and was just on it, the front staff were running around and provided great service. Spirits seems to always have something going on which is exciting, and I'm glad it's lively again. Can't wait to go back.

I will never EVER spend another dime here, they lost my business indefinitely! I won't even give them the pleasure of walking through the business to get inside of the mall. The third party rent a cops here are rude as hell, the guy with glasses uses foul language to cuss out people and he was never taught how to read a clock. They have a stupid rule here where they close the side door and main gate to the mall at 7pm and require people to walk all the way around and show ID to get inside. ID? For what? Is this an arcade or a god damn night club???? They closed the door 10 mins early and we called them out for it and they sure didn't like that. We had to walk around the whole building in a blizzard. Bowling is expensive as hell, for example, 2 games for 4 people was around 80 dollars. The food sucks. They rip you off with game credits. Trust me, I've been to Japan where the real round1s are, it's 100yen per try, which is like 63 cents. Here it's about 14 credits which is about $3.5 a try. (Yeah I know, we're not in Japan, "go play in Japan then", which is exactly what I'll do when I go back, maybe) When they first opened it was great, all crane games were 9 credits. Expensive but way more reasonable than what it is now. Also, I know I know, it's in their rules to not allow outside food and beverages, but come on, if you buy a drink in the mall, like bubble tea or coffee, you can't bring it in. The security will follow you until you're out. Like, I'm not buying a drink inside regardless anyways... WILL. NEVER. RETURN! C YA!!!!
