I can't remember her name (I feel like it was Crystal?) but I hope she knows that she's an amazing server, great at her job, and went above and beyond her duties which I greatly appreciate. She deserves a bonus or something!!

We couldn't wait for a Friday night fish fry.

We were seated immediately, waitress arrived and got our drinks within 5 minutes. We ordered 10 minutes thereafter, we thought this is gonna be good. We waited.... and waited ...waitress never came back. Food arrived an 1 hour and 10 minutes later.‍. We were so hungry. We ate it so fast. I don't think we enjoyed it. Waitress never acknowledged us other than the first initial walk-in and order. We are pretty patient people and didn't feel it necessary to say anything but the three tables around us were in the same situation, we will not return. This restaurant needs a massive face lift in and out.

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.

Brick & Barrel is an unassuming little brewery near downtown Cleveland and the river. It's near a…read morebunch of other breweries so is easily added to any brewery crawl. Our visited ended up being one of our favorites thanks to a silly group of friends, and the super friendly and patient bartender Sarah who made sure we had a great time. The brewery is nearby a cool old raising bridge, which is present in their logo. They have a bunch of core styles to choose from. The decor leans heavily into local kitsch, which gives it a casual and colorful vibe. Prices are super reasonable with $9 flights. The beer quality was great as well. A highlight (or nightmare) for us was the fact they had the infamous Malort to try, we all had our first shots and hated every minute! We visited during a weekday, but I can easily see this being a fun and happening weekend night brewery. I'd love to visit again.

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.

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.

The price is good ($64 for 10 wings, a soup, a big salad, a beer, and a big portion of shrimp appetizer). Everything was delicious. Those wings were out of this world! I think they're double-fried.

Otherwise you got to do it from the iPad at the door. We were 8th in line. But it went fast. Reminder it is a small place and It gets slammed. Even the bar seats are to be seated. Sat and got a cider. Ordered the bacon bourbon wings, wedge salad to split, and onion rings. Ya it was too much. But all good. Onion rings were hot and really good batter. Salty which was good. The wings are big and very crunchy. Sauce was good. Wedge salad is large to share and Kathy and I split it. Lots of stuff in it and the dressing is good. I love this place. My only issue is the cost. This place is not cheap. And I get it. Costs are on the rise every week and it's good food. I just wish it was a bit less so we could go more. Quality good food = higher prices. I get it. I don't have to like it. So you still get my business just not often. Dive bar that's good food, good beer selection, small dining area, loyal following, and a bit higher prices. Worth a try.
