Party of six sat in the middle of a crowded dining room. Acoustics did not allow for easy…read moreconversations as were craned to hear the person across from us...I ordered the fish special, nicely cooked but paired with sweet ube mash, didn't really enjoy the match. Three in our party ordered the steak. Since we couldn't hear each other, we ate and left. It was in our later conversations that the three steak orders said they've had better and all confirmed their meals were cold. Mom enjoyed the short rib, another enjoyed the duck. Cold steaks...

Been a while but we thought it was about time to return to "Downtown 140" in beautiful Hudson,…read moreOhio. The quaint little village is as picturesque as can be. Easily equal to Chagrin Falls, Chardon Square or any other in northeast Ohio. We arrived and parked along the main street, strolled down the block to the front door. Upon entering you desend the stairway to your left. At the bottom you pass through a glass door into a very nicely appointed dining room (see attached picture). This is a "below the sidewalk" establishment and gives off a smokey, speakeasy type vibe... very classy. As you enter you will discover the hostess is at the far end of the room where the entrance from the rear parking lot is. Evidently that is where the majority of customers enter. I prefer the front... no matter. She saw us right away and immediately walked over and greeted our party. We were quickly seated at our table for the evening. A nice gentleman introduced himself as Christian, our server for the evening. He was quick with a smile and full of knowledge and energy. We placed our drink order and began to peruse the menu. The regular and evening specials menus are more than satisfactory to make any pallet happy. We began with "Deviled Eggs" topped with Caviar, need I say, they were marvelous. Also, the "Oysters Rockefeller" were excellent. The choice of entree's are very nice. My wife chose "Chilean Seabass" Spice Rubbed Carrot/Ginger Puree Haricot Verts Almond/Yuzu Chimichurri. I went with my absolute favorite, "Lamb Chops" Herb Crusted Dijon Crispy Gnocchi Green Peppercorn Jus. So did my brother. And his wife ordered the "Sea Scallops" Roasted Beets Humboldt Fog Pistachios Orange/Saffron Butter. Everything was exceptional as always. KUDOS to the entire kitchen staff. We followed dinner with a fine cup of coffee and shared a couple orders of "Whipped Chocolate Mousse" infused with chopped hazelnuts... fabulous. So, as I have said before, if you enjoy "Fine Dining" that is consistently excellent; make the trip to Hudson, Ohio and visit "Downtown 140". You'll be glad you did.

Sixteen people joined us on the patio last evening. It took forever to get a first and only rounds of drink arrived in about 40 minutes. The food came out at about an hour and a half. We were missing salads and side dishes and the usually amazing fried chicken was overcooked. One of my friends called there at 5:30 to have a bottle of wine delivered to my table. He tipped the hostess $10 for the service. As we were leaving at 7:30, our waiter brought the bottle over. The wine went home with me. Fortunately, the patio was a great meeting spot for my family. Everyone had fun despite the problems in the kitchen. I hope that things get better at Russo's. My friends and I were planning to go there on Thursday, too. Not going to risk it again.

It was good but not at all hot. We also had the octopus. It was a bit tough or over cooked a bit. I had a filet special. It was medium well to well and I ordered medium. It was on top of cold mashed potatoes. Unfortunately, the sauce was over the potatoes, so I couldn't really use it to help with the dry meat. My wife had the Bolognese. It was good.
