I had a great dining experience. We were part of a big party and luckily they were not busy. We had…read moreour reservation well in advance and our tables were ready when we arrived. We were greeted warmly when we entered. Ms Jackie was our server and she handled our party like a pro! She was so down to earth and attentive. She took charge and let us know how she would do the ordering to make it efficient. Now the food...our once social table was quiet once the food came out. There were a few appetizers on our table and that was a good move because there was a little wait for the food. Jackie checked in with us and refilled beverages and cleared plates at a great rate. I ordered salmon dish with Mac and cheese and greens. I was able to take half home. We really enjoyed ourselves. I hadn't been to Fredericks in several years, but after this experience, I may have to run it back! The restaurant was clean and inviting as well

The food is always good here but lately the fried pork chops have been lack luster and unseasoned…read more The blackened fish is great and the sides are always good although lately the green beans are under-seasoned and seem to be canned. I would normally give them a strong 4 but it's giving 3.5 at best lately and that's not ok considering the prices.

She presents herself along Euclid and East streets the best, in my opinion - from the outside. Once inside - the main Grand Foyer is not to be missed! Even the side street and back door entrances, and the lower level lobby and vestibule areas beg to be inspected and enjoyed visually and audibly, as the sounds echo off the beautiful marbled floorings. The music hall is a jewel that showcases all of what is right with the art deco movement - and acoustically allows for the magnificent capture of sounds from the silence of a pin drop to the booming bass drums in a Sousa March - or monolithic Wagner Orchestral sounds - they are all to be enjoyed with every style and volume in between. I have enjoyed each visit and treasured each one - looking forward to the next one! I hope to bring my family on a trip with me one of these times as I visit the city for a mix of medical and work visits. Until next time - thank you for another great performance Severance Hall!

The Brandenburg Concertos), I also love their crossover programs, especially, Sephardic Journey. What's great about Apollo's Fire is the way each performer brings a character to life on stage. The performance is both educational and fun, a truly unique take on Baroque music performance. Check out one of their concerts- they're a great way to spend a Friday or Saturday night!

We chose nine of about 35 free events, mostly played from the front porches of homes, and we reveled in live originals and covers of psychedelic rock, classic rock, blues, funk, jazz, americana, samba, and even polka, plus several DJs! We saw blues played from a condo balcony! Lots of people, often dancing, sometimes singing along. We missed some reggae, pop punk and post-punk, choral folk, Lilith-fair, "twang", hiphop, rap, soul, space and indie and progressive and goddess rock, and even karaoke. There were plenty of food trucks, restaurants, cafes, bars, and vendors of crafts, souvenirs, and some sidewalk chalk-art. There were facilities and shaded seating here and there. Just an amazing neighborhood music event, nearly annually since 2008, one of at least 75 annual porchfest events around the continent!

Some of the porch owners even go so far as to keep their guests cool with popsicles or water. Very nice of them! If you stick around a while, you'll be able to hear several different bands. While some are ... weird, you can also discovery great groups you wouldn't otherwise discover. And the neighborhood is hopping as well. Make sure to make reservations if you want to eat somewhere, and if not, the food trucks are out as well. I would definitely recommend this event to anyone! Just bring an umbrella if it rains!
