They have a great selection of beers on tab that are brewed by themselves, a full bar, as well as new items being tried out frequently. The menu is standard bar food with a few eclectic items and usually changes a little every 3mo. They have an amazing fish sandwich and several smashburgers I enjoy. They also usually run an all you eat wings special on Sundays.

The dining area was cute and offered video games to play. There students stopping in for take out as we sat and ate our pizza. The pizza was good. The beer was ok. It was not apparent where they brew the beer and they were out of a couple of beer selections. The Jolly Scholar is located on CWRU's campus and they have a parking lot. Usually parking is at a minimum. Overall it was ok, but I would probably choose another brewpub in the area for next meal out.

BEST DIVE EVER…read more excellent fresh food here, everything I've had is fantastic. This is the Cleveland state college bar but really I've basically seen the working man lunch crowd. It's great. Today I had wings. Prior the chicken salad sandwich, the little Becky burger the big Becky burger I've had the tacos. I had a salad with the chicken salad on it. Everything is so fresh. They have a kitchen that is proud of their work. It's a big place with a storied history, back in the 80s this was the old exedra bar you can look it up. There is a reason that dance floor and the bar is shaped the way it is it's hilarious. I looked it up because I thought this was an old concert club and the bartender told me oh you looked it up and we were dying laughing. They have a free parking lot. It really helps a lot to drive business five stars for dive bars. This place is awesome.

It was an ambiance that was unbeatable. This was my first time ever going for this event and I definitely will be going again next Tuesday. The event does have a 10 dollar cover charge but it was worth it. I think it's a great place to go by yourself to meet people, for date night or with friends. Honorable mention: The Long Island cocktails are monstrous in the best way possible!

Drinks are moderately priced, there is plenty of street parking, and the decor rocks. There are limited bathroom stalls but the restrooms were VERY clean. There was toilet paper and soap all night long, I don't think I've ever been to a cleaner rock venue. So happy about that! Cons:The stage is at a bit on an angle, so my friend on her wheelchair had trouble seeing even from the front row, but we were very happy the venue was wheelchair friendly.

I'm gonna start this out by saying that it absolutely kills me not to give this place 5 stars. It…read moreis an absolutely awesome venue, with great bartenders and cheap beer, and is a staple in the metal and punk communities. The reason that I am writing this is SOLELY because of a serious sanitation issue at the Oceano show that was not properly addressed. Some guy broke his nose in the mosh pit, which obviously can happen and is just part of the risk of going to metal shows, but he chose to be an idiot about it and bled all over every inch of the bathroom instead of using his shirt to stop it. All over the hallway, the bathroom floor, the toilet, the sinks, and the countertops. Every surface was completely coverd in pools of blood. To make matters worse, someone plugged up the toilet and people continuted to use it, resulting in a river of urine throughout the entire bathroom. This mixed with the blood, and created an extreme safety concern. One of the Grog Shop staff went in the barhroom and noticed this, but instead of cleaning it up, he just put an "Out of Order" sticker on the stall. The blood and urine was never cleaned up. Don't get me wrong, I get that most music clubs are all pretty run-down and filthy and it's to be expected, but this is absolutely unacceptable. Everyone knows that there are health department standards about bodily fluid clean-up, and the serious health risks that these fluids pose to patrons. I literally had to throw my shoes away when I got home and wash my feet, because the waste on the floor was so deep that it reached the canvas parts of my shoes. This is absolutely disgusting. Please do better in the future.

Each bench table can hold about 8-10 people. And you sit with each other and it's fun. There was a band playing and everyone was loud singing and drinking and just having fun. The servers take pics of everyone doing the ski shots. Great atmosphere. When we walked in there was a table of about 10 guys doing a ski shot standing on the benches. They stood on the benches more than they sat. The rating is the food and atmosphere combined. Food is about a 1.5 and atmosphere is a 5. Server came over and asked us about drinks. We asked a few questions on the menu. We decided on 2 potato soups and split the garden flat bread. It's was late and we didn't want to eat anything too heavy. The soup was different big chunks of potatoes and a few veggies. Topped with pretzel croutons. Best part. It was ok. Filling. Not hot at all. Hate when soup is like warm. Bring me hot soup! The flat bread was meh. 8 pieces with cream cheese base and a few smattered veggies. It was like that appetizer veggie pizza you get at house parties with biz quick pizza dough. But that is way better. This was a cracker with cream cheese that didn't cover the whole flat bread and a few veggies. Price was about $37 for 2 pops and 2 soups and flat bread. Seems high to me. But prices are $18 for most things and higher. Parking is difficult and mostly paid cuz you're downtown.Patio looks great for summer. Maybe have a beer and enjoy then get something to eat at Becky's down the street.

What an awesome find in Little Italy on a snowy, cold Cleveland night!…read more I had called ahead after doing some research via Yelp recommended eateries in this area that met my needs. I walked in to a perfect greeting and a private dining experience in an upscale setting with a professional team waiting on me! I had attended a concert at nearby Severance Hall and needed a late dinner that could accommodate a 915pm reservation which was met over the phone and in person with genuine and upscale hospitality. The dinner choice was easy - I asked for a recommendation and learned the special for the evening was veal - which is one of my favorites. I said yes and they immediately brought bread - warm with butter - a great crust on the outside and very tender/flaky on the inside. This was paired with a house salad and house dressing (Italian, of course). The salad had slices of radish and also strawberry with the greens. This meal also started by a Pasta Fagioli Soup that was excellent - just the right temp and brought was surprising speed along side the salad - surprising because it was efficient but not rushed and the temps of all were to perfection - as if they had been waiting on just little old me all night long - even though I know they had not been waiting on just me. It is obvious that they take their role seriously. They presented and provided a high quality, first rate, enjoyable and yet comfortable meal a priority. They deliver this with particular and notable expertise! Just look at that veal and the side pasta dish for the main course! Dinner was finished with a dessert of Tiramisu. This was the best Tiramisu I have ever enjoyed! I washed it down with a single shot espresso! The meal was Outstanding in every way! Bravo to the chef and the entire team! Marvelous! When I received my bill - I thought it was wrong! I even commented on it and asked to be sure. This entire meal was served fresh with detailed and excellent preparation and the best ingredients - served to perfection and the total cost was $39.12 with tax! I feel like I am robbing these people and I can tell you I left a solid tip! Amazing and awesome! I will return. Thanks to my new friend at Nido Italia in the Little Italy District on Historic Mayfield Street in beautiful Cleveland, Ohio!

I was immediately greeted by a cheerful lady whom I told I was here to kill time waiting to pick my gf up from the airport so I needed some delicious food. She told me about the chicken wings and also recommended the burger as it was a popular item. I ordered the lemon pepper wings and a bacon cheese burger. The cook had to make the burger patties by hand which impressed me. When a burger is made and shaped by hand, you know it's made out of love. The wings and burger came out in small paper containers which didn't bother me. Easy pick up and throw away. The wings were crispy and had a delicious butter warm taste to it. The lemon pepper seasoning was just right. The burger was phenomenal. The aside of the burger and bun was just right. The taste combined with the lettuce tomato and bacon was out of this world. The company that was there which were locals was fun and enjoyable. I would definitely come back here for laughs and the food that was cooked here. Places like this are rare.
