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!

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.

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 ..

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.

We stopped in for happy hour and had a few snacks and a drink. I had a dirty martini ($7) and it…read morewas delicious! We also tried both types of cooked oysters, the baked and broiled. I love the garlic and herb, you could really taste the oyster. If you like blue cheese, definitely go for the spinach, blue cheese, and bacon oysters. Both were amazing. We also tried mussels and fries and OMG the fries were so crispy and cooked well. The mussels and brother were great as well! We will be back to try more items. Our bartender (and all staff) were super welcoming and kind! Great service. We sat at the bar. I would love to come back for drinks with some friends or even on the cute patio! Perfect spot for a casual nice dinner!

Great place to chill and have a good time with great seafood…read more My son and I go here every once in a while to catch up and have a little "father / son" time. It used to be a Friendly's back in the day where I spent late nights with my high school friends along with date nights with my wife. Now, I find myself heading up to Salty Mary's with my teenage son who is always looking to try different seafoods. And boy did our last trip hit another level! We celebrated his birthday and got a few different options that all exceeded our expectations. From the fried clam strips to the oysters to the salmon to the crab ... ending with the peanut butter chocolate sundae (I still have no idea where he puts all that food) ... it was another awesome time that I'm sure will be followed by another Can't wait for the next time and highly recommend!

It started with a New Years Eve pursuit to make lobsters at home. We tried a couple of other stores…read moreand they didn't have any live lobsters available. We raced here and made it only a few hours before they closed. At this point we were pretty desperate because all of our plans centered around making a lobster dinner at home (thanks COVID). We had to wait in line because they were only allowing a few customers in at once. We appreciated this because it is a fairly small space. They only had two pound lobsters left- it was a splurge but we could not have been more thrilled with the quality and the customer service. The owner asked us if we'd ever cooked lobsters before and when we said we hadn't he gave us exact instructions for cooking them to perfection. We thanked him for his help, grabbed some scallops for good measure, and headed home. We googled other instructions just out of curiosity and we would have gone with a different method had he not taken the time to talk to us about how to properly cook them. We were so grateful for the friendliness and customer service and our lobsters came out perfect. They were absolutely delicious and so were the scallops. We will be back any time we need seafood at home. We also want to go back and try some of their to go meals. Everything was fresh, it didn't smell fishy, and the customer service was everything that's awesome about a small local shop. Thanks for making our New Years Eve! Skip the steakhouse prices, come here, and make it at home. You can't beat the flavor and quality on these lobsters!

We reserved a patio table. Naturally, it rained--or at least threatened to rain,…read more which in Ohio is apparently enough to close a patio. So we got a window table instead. Not bad. Actually, pretty nice. Then there was Fernando. One of the most professional, personable servers I've encountered in quite a while. The guy could probably deliver bad news and have you thanking him for it. Blackened scallops in a light cream sauce were excellent, big flavor without drowning the scallops in cream. The halibut with crabmeat was beautifully prepared and flavorful, although the top was a little overcooked, perhaps from waiting a bit under the heat lamp before making its grand entrance. The Mare--handmade tagliatelle with garlic, clams, shrimp, EVOO and Pinot Grigio--was terrific. Well balanced, loaded with seafood and generous enough to make you wonder if the kitchen had misread the portion-size memo. There was one glitch: our entrées arrived about two minutes after the appetizers. We sent them back. Fernando immediately investigated, explained the kitchen timing problem and apologized. Excellent recovery. Tiramisu was very good, though not quite a religious experience. Overall: excellent food, exceptional service and a pleasant atmosphere--although the dining room could use a little less volume. Apparently, everyone had something important to say. A very good dinner. I'd come back. And I'd ask for Fernando.

Had a meal here on a busy Saturday night. The food was good , but prices are very high. Our server…read morewas pleasant and seemed knowledgeable but service was slow they probably need more servers on a busy Saturday. We tried the eggplant and sacchetti appetizers, both delicious. They give you fresh bread with oil and whole garlic cloves, very good. Giving 4 stars because the main pasta dishes are so expensive and nothing fantastic that warrants the price especially when compared to some other excellent Italian restaurants to choose from. I would eat here again though and try the patio because it's beautiful. Maybe avoid really busy times for a better experience.

One of my favorite Thai places in Cle!!…read more Our waitress was the sweetest woman I have ever met - explained the menu to us, gave us her and the local favorites, AND talked to us about Thailand! She shared some of her stories and we just loved our time here! We started off with the crispy pork egg rolls! They were in fact perfectly crispy and delicious! The dipping sauce completed it!!! For dinner we enjoyed the hot & spicy basil stir fry AND the seafood choo chee curry! It was actually a good amount of food to share and even have some left overs! It was hard to pick favorite because they were both DELICIOUS!!!!! The choo chee curry is made with coconut milk and all the flavors blended SO WELL!!!!! On the other hand the spicy basil stir fry tasted so fresh and good as well!! I would definitely recommend trying this place for great Thai food - they actually also offer Vietnamese food too!!! I can't wait to come back and try more... like their boba tea/milks!!! See you all very soon!

I wanted to keep it light, so I order 2 appetizers, Satay Chicken and Fresh Shrimp spring rolls. The order was ready & delivered way ahead of the scheduled time and the driver (Dwayne) was friendly & professional. Anyway, the food was wrapped & boxed well. The satay chicken was cooked and seasoned properly and the sauces were the typical pickled veggies and slightly sweet and the peanut sauce tasted good. While the rolls were fresh, they were a bit smaller than I've seen from other establishments.
