    Ma Po Tofu with minced pork
    Eric K.

    This is a mom-and-pop style sit-down place. The service was quick and very friendly. There was plenty of parking. The decor was a little run down and the seating was a little tight- but you come here for the food. The servings were huge (plan on a box to take home) and everything was served hot and fresh. The menu is pretty much all asian, but there was a bit of variety of choices (Japanese, Hong Kong, etc). It seems like seafood and stir fry are their specialties, but we especially liked the honey walnut jumbo shrimp and one of the chef's special: the sea, wind and fire! Their hot and sour soup was also especially notable- not very place gets this soup right, but Aristo Bistro does. Come here for value-sized excellently-prepared Asian food and a relaxed family atmosphere!

    Fried rice and Hibachi Chicken

    Terrible. Very Salty. Chicken hard as a rock. Veggies still raw. Mixed up sauces . The veggie spring role smelled like week-old frying oil, salty, unknown mash of veggies inside. We ordered Gen Tso's Chicken, got Sweet & Sour w/ "sheets" of the sauce in crystal form. We ordered Hibachi chicken, got 3 or 4 bites of chicken swimming in a liquidy brown sauce. The fried rice is brown & very salty, no hints of eggs or peas or vegies, etc ..

    Came here recently, before heading to Crocker Park for a movie night with friends. The four of us decided we'd do the meal "family style" where we order a bunch of dishes and share them all. We arrived on the earlier side for dinner, so only a few tables occupied...which meant our service and meal arrival times were quick and efficient. As a table we settled on the following items: crab Rangoon, gyoza dumplings, BBQ spare ribs, hot-n-soup soup, general Tso's chicken, wor sue chicken and finally stir fry vegetables. Our server did a nice job of parsing out the dishes so it came in courses and nothing got cold in the process. He was also very attentive to beverage needs as he constantly kept our glasses full. The amount of plates ordered seemed just about right for four people, and we only took home a small portion that made for a nice lunch the next day. The only dish that was underwhelming was the stir fry vegetables, but everything else was spot on and delicious! Would definitely recommend and would return if in that area again.

    Finally...I have passed Aristo Bistro many times, we finally ordered take out and decided to eat in. Glad we did. Growing up in what is now referred to Cleveland's Asia Town, Aristo Bistro is authentic, fresh and delicious. The owner, Anthony, a long time Cleveland restaurant owner made his way to the west side and I love it. Not to mention my favorite waiter, Alex, works there too. This time around I opted for comfort food, keeping it simple with egg drop soup, pan fried noodles and Mongolian tofu. Everything was delicious, full of flavor, and so fresh. They also offer beer and wine. I cannot wait to keep going back.

    Hawaiian chicken. $14.95 very little chicken mostly sliced up bok choy stems.

    We dined in for dinner entrees. I had ordered the Hawaiian chicken. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with my entree. It was mostly very gross to me, large chewy pieces of bok choy with a very tiny amount of chicken. It was served with fried rice. (Bland in my opinion). $14.95 I don't believe I'll be returning any time soon. There was only one server for the entire restaurant. There were two tables of 10 each and three other tables of families. She was friendly and welcoming but I felt for her. She was working so very hard as the older gentleman stood at the cash register.

    The restaurant is beautiful but the food arrived cold but it was a beautiful presentation. Had to…read moreask for water refills where other tables had a large bottle of water at their table. It was Valentines weekend and we went on Friday which means it wasn't crowded at 5:30 yet. We were the 2nd table seated and while there the host set next customers all in an arms reach. Where we could hear each other's conversations. She could have set us more apart I felt like especially when a family of four came in with two young kids, totally ruined the ambience of the restaurant being Valentine's Day eve. When the waitress approached our table, she would stand behind me and start to talk, and I had to turn around to look at her. She should have come to the center of the table, which had plenty of room to view both of us. Plus since she was standing behind me at first, I thought she was talking to another table. Then my husband told me she was asking us questions. This place is over an hour drive for us so won't return.

Very quiet and classy over Sunday lunch period.

    Julia's 1902 is located on the ground floor of the historic Willoughby House, is a refreshing…read moreaddition to the local dining scene. The restaurant shares this beautifully restored landmark estate with an inn featuring ten unique suites on the upper floors, creating a destination that feels both elegant and intimate. The dining space is laid out across several rooms filled with antiques, floor-to-ceiling bookcases, and fireplaces. This layout not only adds to the sophisticated, fine-dining aesthetic but also helps significantly reduce noise, making for a much more intimate experience. The atmosphere is further elevated by the live music, which strikes the perfect volume to complement the mood without overpowering conversation. The menu, led by Executive Chef Jose Coronado, is interesting because it blends his Guatemalan heritage with Mediterranean, Asian, and Latin American influences. It doesn't feel forced, though; the dishes are creative but remain approachable. What stood out to me most was the kitchen's commitment to preparation. Everything is made from scratch on-site, including things you don't always think about--like their house-made ketchup and custom-pickled olives. They also source locally from Kirtland, Willoughby, and Mentor whenever possible, and the seafood and meats tasted noticeably fresh, not frozen. The staff is truly spectacular; you can tell they genuinely enjoy working here, and they were super attentive throughout our visit. One detail I appreciated is their no-tipping policy; they include a 20% service charge on every bill, which goes toward providing their staff with a living wage, health benefits, and paid time off. It makes for a stress-free experience at the end of the meal. The highlights from our meal: * Drinks:Velvet Island Old Fashioned, Enchanted Garden, and the Cherry Royal. * Small Plates:Lightly Cured Halibut, Smoked Royal Miyagi Oysters (the standout for me), Short Rib Croquettes, the seasonal Unagi Smoked Eel, and the house-made focaccia. * Entrées: Yakitori Surf & Turf and the Seared Alaskan Halibut. The setting is unique, and whether you're local or just passing through Northeast Ohio, this is definitely worth a visit if you appreciate scratch-made food, thoughtful hospitality, and a refined atmosphere. I'm looking forward to going back.

This is our 3rd visit (this time with one of our kids) and another absolute perfection (to the point that my daughter indicated that it is in top 5 places she has ever eaten in, and she has been to some great places). For appetizers, we shared Short Rib Croquettes (our absolute favorite dish of the night), Delicate Fried Eggplant, Roasted Rainbow Carrots and Crispy Broccoli (in peanut sauce). Main Courses, my wife and I split Alaskan Halibut and our daughter had Butternut Squash Raviolli. We finish the night off with Lemon Tart and Chocolate Mascarpone Mouse. Absolutely fabulous evening, great atmostpher, great food. Keep it up!
