    French Onion Soup
    Allison K.

    We went here for dinner last night and the food was wonderful. Their appetizers and sides are perfect for sharing with a large group. They have a large drink menu to choose from as well. It was a loud environment and we were seated by the door, so a lot of foot traffic as well. Otherwise, great spot for a nice night out.

    Halibut

    We chose Ken Stewart's restaurant for our special evening out after living in the area for nearly 30 years and had never been there. When making the reservation, I was asked about any special occasion. I did mention we were celebrating our 33rd wedding anniversary that day. I'm not sure why they asked as the only acknowledgment of anything special was a "happy anniversary" to us when we checked in for our table. Being such an upscale and expensive restaurant I would've thought they would send a little something over as an acknowledgment of our special night as I have experienced with other restaurants in the past. The surroundings were very nice and the waitress was excellent. I ordered the beef Wellington, which I found was a little tougher than I thought it would be, although I had never had it before. My husband had the halibut which we both liked. We had the lobster deviled eggs, which were good although I did find a shell in the filling while eating one of them. The bread was great, but my favorite thing I think was the wedge salad with the white French dressing, which was excellent. All in all we decided for the price not sure we would come again to this restaurant as there were some things we were disappointed in.

    French Onion Soup
    Lauren B.

    My partner and I ordered 2 Margaritas & 1 Diet Coke, the Brie/Jam Appetizer, French Onion Soup, Beef Wellington, Seafood Stir Fry, 3 Sides (Mashed Potatoes, Brussel Sprouts, and a Twice Baked Potato), and Cheesecake. The total (with 20% tip and CC fee) was $300 exactly. Positives - Contrary to the reviews of others, we actually loved the lodge feel. While it was a bit dated, it's worth mentioning that this restaurant does not have a dress code and does have a more casual feel - so you can dress comfy and that is something I actually loved about the place! The Brie/Jam Appetizer (ORDER THIS!), French Onion Soup, Beef Wellington, and Mashed Potatoes were the stars of the evening! I was able to cut the Beef Wellington with just a fork - it was the most tender cut of meat I've ever tasted. Our waiter was also fantastic! Very attentive staff - several people checked on us, refilled our waters, and took used plates. Negatives - The music was loud and the playlist was odd for the environment. The drinks were canned - no fountain drinks available. The shrimp in the Seafood Stir Fry was hard and rubbery. The Brussel Sprouts and Cheesecake tasted average - nothing particularly special about those. I was overwhelmed by the amount of menu items our waiter went over that were not on the menu. He rattled off 6-7 full menu items that sounded delicious, but my brain could not keep up with his speed of listing everything back-to-back - I would have preferred a written menu with the specials.

    Our first time at The Lodge, having dined at Tre Belle and KSG numerous times we sporadically decided to give The Lodge a try. Last minute reservations put us in the outdoor patio area- I was skeptical but it was a great spot. Nice sunset view, rustic ambiance and very toasty! Our server (Stacey?) was wonderful! Friendly, attentive and gave excellent recommendations. Cocktails were great, nice diverse menu The Japanese shrimp were my favorite, unique and delicious! My husband enjoyed the Beef Wellington and I devoured the Sacchetti pasta. My dish was the favorite of both of ours, yum! For dessert, we split the crème brûlée, another great choice. I will say, I was very surprised by the number of young children. We were surrounded by kids on both sides, and as parents ourselves who were hoping to enjoy a date night, it was a bit interruptive of our evening... I suppose I am just more considerate of others, but having a $300 dinner should have been accompanied by a more enjoyable atmosphere.

    Walleye with beurre blanc
    Jenna B.

    We tried this for the first time, and I'm not impressed. Don't get me wrong, there were definitely some positives like the excellent service, but none of it was worth the cost. The ambiance isn't my thing. It's a "lodge" setting, but it's all inauthentic and cheap looking. The menu looks great if you like steak and seafood, but the reality doesn't live up to the hype. We got the small, chilled seafood tower ($145), and it was a lot of food, but it was mostly flavorless and it was obvious that most, if not all, had been in the freezer for a while, particularly the mussels, which were shriveled and tasteless. The Caesar salad was good (though they weren't offering table side preparation the day after Valentine's Day), but it's not exactly a complicated dish. Our entrees were very good though my walleye required just a dash of salt to make the flavors pop. My husband was very happy with his salmon, and we shared the peanut butter bomb for dessert and liked it. Again, not so difficult to scoop some ice cream into a warm cookie. Our final bill with tip came to just over $400. I've eaten at Michelin star restaurants for about the same price, and this was FAR from being Michelin Star quality.

    Sacchetti pasta with added grilled chicken
    Deanna V.

    We made a last minute reservation for our party of four and I am so glad we chose the Lodge. Our server, Alex, was incredible. His service was impeccable and his recommendations were spot on. We ordered a combination of menu items and off menu specials. Two in our party got the Beef Wellington special and loved it. I got the Sacchetti pasta and added grilled chicken per Alex's suggestion and it was delicious. I took some home and it was still amazing reheated the next day for lunch. The peach burrata appetizer wasn't my favorite, as the peaches I had were tough. But, peaches can be finicky like that. Overall, we had a great time and I highly recommend checking it out.

    Complimentary Cranberry Bread

    We came for a birthday celebration. Really enjoyed our experience. Great service. We started our dinner with stuffed peppers. It was unbelievable as one pepper was tame and the other one was a towering inferno!! Just beware but exceptional. We followed this with salads. The insalata Mista salad was amazing. It had hearts of palm, tomatoes, avocado, asparagus and shaved Parmesan in a lemon vinaigrette dressing. It was Sharable and very good. Spot on with my lobster with the drawn butter. The rest of the table had steaks. Cooked per requested. We all shared the potato au gratin and garlic mashed along with the asparagus. We ordered 3 sides which was plenty for 4 people. Not sure how we had room for dessert but we did. Would recommend for any special occasion.

    This is an outstanding choice for high-end dining. While it is a bit pricey, it is definitely worth every penny.

We had planned to arrive during prime dinner time, so we made a reserved reservation through Yelp, which was definitely the right call. We started with the truffle fries, and even though I don't usually like or order crinkle-cut fries, these were outstanding. They were topped with shaved Parmesan, sun-dried tomato aioli, and truffle basil mayo and were absolutely delicious. For entrées, I had the Brandy Burger with chips, which was fantastic. My husband ordered The Pammy Melt with chips and a side salad, and the homemade ranch dressing was especially good. My younger son had the New York strip steak with sweet potato fries, finished with a bourbon maple syrup glaze that he loved. My oldest son went with the Cheeseburger Deluxe and fries, which he said was great as well. From the outside, the restaurant looks like an old house, and inside it's quite small, but very quaint, cozy, and welcoming. We did wait about 20 minutes for a table, but our server was incredibly friendly and attentive the entire time. He checked on us multiple times, offered drinks while we waited, and kept us updated on when our table would be ready. He was kind, personable, and clearly attentive to everyone in the dining area. Overall, the food, atmosphere, and service made for a really enjoyable night. We would absolutely go back.

On Mondays, they have a limited menu, and we ordered the stuffed banana peppers which were delightful (not pictured, they went too quickly!) and I also ordered the superfood salad with steak (medium rare of course). I really enjoyed the salad. It had so many yummy textures and I opted out to remove the strawberries and instead of the Asian dressing, I ended up choosing Italian, which was based on my own personal preference and I'm so happy I did. The super food salad had so many wonderful ingredients, including pistachios, different berries, and edamame. The steak itself was cooked perfectly, and the entire salad was very refreshing. I didn't order at this time, but they have wonderful pierogies and also some of the best calamari in town.

It was brighter out there than in the main restaurant and made for nice seating. After perusing the menu, we went for the black n' bleu burger, the B.O.M.B. burger, the chipotle garden vegetable chili, and orders of fries and their jalapeño bottle caps. All were great! The mac and cheese on the BOMB burger was creamy and excellent, and my companions really enjoyed their burgers. The chili was awesome...I have been thinking about it since. The fries were fresh and hot (they needed salt, but good other than that), and the jalapeño bottle caps were the right amount of spice and came with a perfect cup of ranch for accompaniment. Their hot sauce is great too! Service was friendly and efficient as well. Burgers are a touch pricey considering they don't come with fries or anything and the place is cash only, but other than that no complaints. We will be back for sure. Thank you, Whitey's!

    I will begin by saying I have always considered Whiteys one of the best burgers in Cleveland…read more Normally I really enjoy the burgers and it leaves me thinking about them for months thereafter. This experience was slightly different, and that may just be what I ordered.... My group ordered the Firecracker burgers, Maggy, side of fries and tots. Fries: delicious!! Hot and fresh cut. Its very hard to find a fry this good anymore. Tots: Also very good paired with the Whiteys hot sauce. Although, there is nothing very special about the tots. I assume they are frozen and simply reheated much unlike the fries. Burgers: It seemed to be the general theme that everyone thought their burgers were cooked just right. However the beef lacked any flavor or seasoning whatsoever. A little salt or pepper on the grill would've gone a long way here. I was disappointed as the beef is arguably the most important part. Mushrooms and onions: Also lacked any flavor whatsoever and needed some form of seasoning. Not sure if it was steaming in a crockpot all day, but it needed something more. Firecracker fried jalapeños: A complete hit and everyone thought they were fantastic. They need to add more of the special sauce also. Service was acceptable. Not many complaints or comments to be made there. Lighting was dark, and place wasn't very crowded for a Monday. Overall 6.8/10.
