When you enter, you line up and then get seated by a host. Our waitress was nice and kept refilling our drinks. The food there was really good. This is what we ordered and shared between the two of us: -- Onion Ring Basket (our "app") -- Black Bean Burger with Fries -- Large Veggie Pizza My husband and I had read an article from one of the Ohio tourist brochures we picked up at a travel plaza about "Cleveland Pizza." So we figured why not give it a try at the Winking Lizard. It's was really good. My husband even said he liked it better than Chicago-style. We would definitely come back again.

Highly recommend Trivia nights on Tuesday with a mindblowing burger deal: cheeseburger (at least…read more1/3 or 1/4 pound), tots and a 12 oz Bud Light draft for $8.99. Tots were crispy and the burger was juicy. No special seasoning but came with all the routine backyard BBQ fixings. I was definitely full at the end of dinner. Great staff, even though they were hustling that night. They were attentive, pleasant and efficient. Unfortunately I arrived late to Trivia, which was free to join and would definitely return to play. Lots of TVs to watch sport games. Has its own parking lot.

Update. Been a bit since we've eaten here. Still the same. Met some friends here on a Tuesday…read more Wasn't crowded. The server was very nice and accommodating. We haven't seen these friends in a bit so we were kinda eating and lounging and talking. We ordered the original corn beef to split the regular size and we got the homade potato and cole slaw. Our guests got the corn beef as well and potato pancakes as their side. One liked the potato pancakes and one did not. They are mash potato consistency not shredded. I tasted they were ok to me. The potato salad and cole slaw were both good. Better choice. The corn beef actually looked smaller than usual. It was good but I thought it had been larger in the past. Maybe not anymore. Service was good. Food came out on time. This is a good place to go. Prices are a bit high but it's a deli. You can do what we did and split the sandwich. It enough food. Bar is nice. The patio is nice too. It's a good space and they even have a party room if you want to rent it out. Slymans is an institution. We will be back at some point again.

Oh my gosh! Who-da-thunk it in Old Brooklyn? Knew nothing of this place until recently. Had a…read moreburger. Awesome. One of the best around. Great char flavor with great pickles. As a sour dill pickle lover, I really loved the cucumber-flavor pickles. They are great for the burger -- adds even more flavor without overwhelming like some pickles can. The pickles taste how I imagine they would when only half through pickling process -- a combo of discernible cucumber with a mild dill flavor. Very nice. I was disappointed with the octopus. It was delicious and uber tender, but only one small tentacle -- not enough to share with anyone. My husband and I can share a meatball at most places but this tentacle was too small. The gnocchi that accompanied it could be a dish all its own. The gnocchi with the potato alone would make a great app. or entree. We were really impressed with the food and are looking forward to round 2.

Never Say Dive was on my list of places to try, so I decided to check them out during wing week…read more The wing flavor they were offering sounded tasty and they were offering a Baja blast margarita. I love a good dive bar, however Never Say Dive is a bit more elevated when it comes to the food choices. I really wanted to try the deviled eggs, but they were out. There definitely some other things that caught my eye, but decided on just the wings. It was later in the evening. I believe the server said they were gochujang, though the flavor was a bit different than the gochujang I'm used to. They definitely packed a kick of heat. Overall I enjoyed them. The margarita was just ok. Long story short, I would try it out again

Little one room place seemingly, with good food! Menu is limited to subs, sandwiches, salads, and…read moresides. Turkey bacon sub had good lettuce, nice slices of turkey, and the right amount of bacon for flavor and crunch, and a side of real mac-n-cheese (with REAL cheese)! Philly cheese sandwich was juicy and hearty, with peppers and onions cooked just right. The side of fries was fresh and crispy! Interior was cozy, with friendly atmosphere, obviously a regular hangout for some. Service was prompt and also friendly. I would recommend this place for a quick bite, or to just get out of the sun for a cold drink. I paid in cash so I don't know if they take card. Good amount of parking for a little place, and some giggles with the decor.

So i went in sat at the bar and asked the bartender what the best thing to eat was. She said the burgers. So then i asked if they were made fresh or frozen. She said fresh. So i ordered a burger. The burger was just ok. Didn't seem like a fresh made burger. So i had the burger and 1 beer. And asked for the bill. When it came it was $26.00 for a beer and a burger.

As we were getting comfortable at the bar, the bartender greeted us with "welcome shots"- immediate five stars - and was as friendly as could be. Our drinks were made quickly, enthusiastically and never went empty during our visit.

This is another grandpa bar with decent food. Went here on a Tuesday. They have taco Tuesday's. 2…read moretacos for $4. They also have Mexican pizza, loaded nachos and taco salad. The loaded nacho's are good. They have some spice with the cheese and jalapeños. But you get a decent portion for $5.75. Tacos were good. They are a flour tortilla that's is fried for hard taco. They also have $1 dogs during Gaurdians games. The basic beers on tap like bud light. Basic bar with basic liqueurs. I'd try something else next time. The guy who was serving us was nice. He had all the tables so he was running around. When the Gaurds game started the place filled up. It was also trivia night. We played 1 round and won. It was fun. Bottom line is a typical bar menu. Burgers, wraps, wings and every day is a special. They have basic bar drinks nothing fancy. Bunch of TV to watch the games. Seems like an OK Dads bar. Seems like a normal regular crowd that always goes.
