First time at Sapphire Creek…read more Was intrigued by their 10$ smash burger deal every Tuesday and it did not disappoint. Both my wife and I got the burger and it was very good. Probably the best value smash burger deal in NEOhio. Nice size patties, good sauce and lettuce/onions and a decent portion of fries. Had a glass of Viognier and wife had a Riesling. Both good and liked that they had different sized pours. Service was good. Appeared to be well staffed. What really sets this place apart is the overall feel of the physical space and manicured grounds. Clean, bright, comfortable. A walk after dinner around the amazing grounds made for a nice evening. Hard to believe this place is at the end of a nondescript industrial park. Too bad I don't have an occasion coming up because this would be high on my list of places to have it. Will eagerly return.

We were seated promptly and it wasn't too busy in the patio dining room. It took almost 10 minutes…read morefor anyone to come to our table and greet us and ask if we'd like anything to drink. We placed our drink order and waited...out came 2 glasses of wine, then the third and then the beer that was ordered. Also asked for lemon wedges for the water which came after the beer. Placed appetizers order of crab cakes and smash burger. Waited a bit and then placed order for two salads as part of our dinners. Salads came out before the appetizers. I must say the crab cakes were delicious (maybe not $26 delicious), the smash burger was ok, very greasy and fries were not very hot. My biggest disappointment was my entree, Parmesan Crusted Seabass which is one of my all time favorites that I order when I see it on the menu. The plate looked delicious but looks can be deceiving. The Seabass was more breaded than Parmesan crusted. Usually When I order this it is Seabass topped with shredded Parmesan cheese and baked, this was not that! Then the sauce that covered the spinach and potatoes and lobster pieces had red chili flakes added(which is not noted on the menu) which added "heat" to the dish that I was not expecting nor was I able to eat. For $55 I was very disappointed. No, I didn't mention this at the time as we were dining with family and I didn't want to disrupt the dinner by sending it back. Such a simple thing to note on the menu description! The short rib was the best entree of the table, nice portion and delicious sauce. The filet was tiny, maybe 4 oz. Definitely not anywhere near 8 in as stated on the menu and it was hard to find with all of the broccoli on the plate. We will be visiting family here again but definitely won't be back here. On another note, the music they were playing would be more suitable to a dance club than a venue such as this.

Tonight was another Saturday night date night. But this was a special one. My wife just retired and…read morethis was our retirement celebration night out. So she chose the Christmas lights of Chagrin Falls and "Odd Fellows Restaurant" which looks out on the Gazebo and all the lights of the square. We arrived at the restaurant and immediately were seated at a comfortable table in the center of the room by a very professional young woman. Very shortly after, the sweetest, most bubbly young lady greeted us and introduced herself as Bianca, our server for the evening. I can't say enough about Bianca. She was absolutely extraordinary. Friendly is an understatement. She had a beautiful smile that never left her face. She was so personable you could not help but feel comfortable in her care for the evening. Throughout the 2+ hours we were in her hands she just kept getting more impressive. If you decide to give "Odd Fellows" a try you would be doing yourself a great service by requesting her as your server for the evening when you make your reservation. Our initial order included refreshing drinks from the bar along with great crusty bread and excellent "Roasted red pepper soup". Very nicely done. We followed that with our entrees. I ordered the "Sesame Tuna" which was very nicely prepared. My wife and sister-in-law had the "Walleye" and they loved it. My brother enjoyed the "Shrimp Bucatini". I must say the kitchen did an exemplary job all evening... Kudos to the entire kitchen staff. We followed dinner with excellent coffee and very nicely presented desserts. A marvelous finish to a marvelous evening at "Odd Fellows". I give them my highest recommendation and encourage you to give them a try. Don't forget to request Bianca -- she is the cherry on top.

Started off with bread that came with a great garlic butter. Wish the bread had come out warm but it was good. I had a Caesar salad with shrimp for dinner which was great, filling but still light and the shrimp were fantastic, nice and big and very flavorful. We also ordered Brussels sprouts, fries and "onion rings" for the table. The Brussels were fantastic, probably my best bite of the night. I also really loved the fries, they had the perfect amount of salt which I always appreciate. The onions rings were very good, but I would call them more of onion straws so just be sure you know what you're getting if you grab those. Others at my table enjoyed the burger a lot, as well as the shrimp pasta. A lovely holiday experience overall!

Came here for a birthday party and we are in the outside patio room…read more The room is a farmhouse style it very warm; however, if you're coming in the winter time make sure you wear a coat & good boots to keep your feet warm. Otherwise it was very cozy but loud i they need to put sound boards on the wall or ceiling to help absorb the sound. We had pizza (which I would recommend purchasing) & veggie board They only had one bathroom for about 40 people ‍ but it seemed to work. If you wanted to have a drink, you had a walk outside to the martini bar. Once there you have to wait in line at the end of the bar and it was packed full. It reminded me of an old lounge.

I love this bar in theory. ambiance is…read moregood, drinks are good but the service is awful. we always tip well and we are always nice-I have always worked in the hospitality industry so I understand- being understaffed/ busy/ having bad nights etc. but every time we come in, which is relatively often, we have been having consistently bad experiences. last time we came in it took over thirty minutes to even be greeted. the servers will ignore us and even roll their eyes when they see us. I stood at the bar for 30 minutes waiting for a drink a few visits ago while the bartenders took shots with other guests and got absolutely trashed while I was waiting to be served to the point that other patrons at the bar were asking me if I needed them to get the bartenders attention to make my drink, meanwhile the staff was avoiding eye contact and refusing to acknowledge me. tonight at 9:30 they came up to my table and told us it was last call (according to google this bar closes at 12) and brought us our checks. we paid cash and they didn't bring us change- assuming you're getting tipped 66% on a table you refused to wait on is insane and I had to go inside and ask for both mine and my sisters change where I was met with eye rolls and dirty looks from the girl with the braid who had been giving us dirty looks all night. this bar is convenient for me and my sister to meet and catch up each week and to be met with such blatant disrespect is beyond disappointing. closing the bar early so you can have a private party with your friends is not an acceptable reason to kick other patrons out and it has happened times before. we will not be returning, which is disappointing to both of us.

When we first walked in the girls at The hostess stand…read moregreeted us with a smile and seated us right away. They were super friendly and inviting which was really nice to walk into. The decor inside was elegant and calming. I love how they kept a lot of the history of the building itself and tied the history into the decor; beautifully done. We sat outside on a half booth half table and enjoyed the weather. Our waitress was so sweet ! She had the biggest smile and was so sweet with the kids. I got the blueberry mojito and my husband got a draft Garage beer. They were both great. Next we got the calamari which was fabulous ! Home made breading and sauce. Even the kids were all for it . We also received some complimentary bread and their specialty butter . The home made butter had a bit of savory to it and was in a league entirely of its own. I think it was a roasted red pepper blend. This complimented the red pepper but it was very tastefully done with how much was added . It was just right. My husband got their signature "Square Bistro burger " as it comes and he said it was great and really enjoyed the special sauce. He said next time he's going to ask for more of that sauce on the side that's how much he liked it. The kids both got the Mac n cheese and finished as much as much as they could ! Definitely a good pic for them. I appreciate the kids menu crayons and several options for them to choose from including a kids sushi roll! For my dinner I ordered the crab salad maki which was really amazing. The rice was perfect . Everything in the roll was extremely fresh and the crab salad itself was exceptional with the sauce they made it with. The eel sauce on top had the perfect amount of sweetness. The Tobiko Nigiri was well balanced and fresh. The miso soup really stole the show for me on all levels. I usually order miso soup everywhere we go and this was by far one of the best I have ever had. The tofu was home Made you could tell it had a wow factor and was extremely delicious. The miso broth itself was also nothing less than exceptional with the flavoring. It had to be made from scratch . It was fabulous. We will definitely be coming back and we will surely recommend it to family and friends. Thanks for having us and creating a great dinner experience in Chardon square !

The staff works really well together to deliver timely service from the moment you sit down. The servers are well-versed in knowledge of the menu and making suggestions to accommodate requests! For the food- for starters, the bread and compound butter are absolutely incredible and fresh. The duck flatbread is full of unique and cohesive flavors! I ordered the Korean bbq steak and my goodness, that did not disappoint. I will say as a suggestion, the Brussels sprouts would be better on the side and crisped up a little bit versus mixed in with the potatoes. The potatoes were cooked perfectly and the flavor of the entire dish was wonderful. Also ordered at my table were various sushi rolls which were all presented beautifully and had flavor to match. The ramen bowl boasted a bold broth with perfectly cooked noodles. The dessert was not quite what I pictured in my mind, I ordered the chocolate raspberry cheesecake and I was thinking it was going to be a vanilla cheesecake with chocolate and raspberry swirls but it is actually a chocolate cheesecake. Personally it was a little dense for me but still very tasty! The drinks were tasty and well thought-out and the bartenders are very good at their job! Overall was a wonderful dining experience. Would definitely recommend!

The kitchen was a little slow, but our waitress mentioned it ahead of time and that was OK. We tried the Moqueca for two with lobster. It was delicious, a vibrant Brazilian seafood stew, which was rich and creamy and flavorful. We would both definitely order this again. The serving was generous. We had the salgadinhos as an appetizer and they were delicious: three different kinds, cheese, chicken, shrimp. Think of them is like little empanadas and we would order this again. Cocktails were all great as well. Overall, a wonderful dinner!

An absolutely fantastic visit today…read more Our daughter is moving out of town, and for her "going-away" dinner she wanted one more visit to Cru. What a wonderful choice it turned out to be. From beginning to end, this was truly a remarkable dining experience. Every time we visit, it seems like both the food and the service continue to get even better. We had reserved a table on the outdoor patio and were seated promptly. We absolutely love the patio--its ambiance is second to none and, in our opinion, it's one of the best outdoor dining spaces in the city. This time, we decided to keep things light and ordered a selection of appetizers, a cheese board, and desserts. Since the menu changes four times a year, there's little point in listing every dish, as they'll likely be different by the time someone reads this review. A huge compliment goes to the entire kitchen staff. Every appetizer was beautifully prepared, and they even made a special zucchini blossom for our daughter, which was a wonderful surprise. A special thank you also goes to the pastry chef. The three desserts were outstanding, and the personal touch of writing "Good Luck in Chicago" in chocolate on one of the dessert plates made the evening even more memorable. We also want to recognize both sommeliers. During a previous visit, one of them had prepared an incredible house-made bar nut mix that we still talk about. We asked whether it was still available, and although he explained it was no longer on the menu, he went out of his way to prepare it for us on the spot. Our daughter absolutely loved it. Our second sommelier (whose name I unfortunately forgot) was equally wonderful. She took the time to recommend several excellent Pinot Grigios after my daughter asked for suggestions, and her knowledge and enthusiasm were greatly appreciated. Finally, a heartfelt thank you to our server, Julie, who provided warm, attentive, and professional service throughout the evening. She helped make an already special occasion even more enjoyable. As we were leaving, my daughter summed it up perfectly: "This was probably my favorite visit out of all the times we've been here." For a restaurant we've enjoyed many times over the years, that's about the highest compliment we could give. Thank you to everyone at Cru for making our daughter's farewell dinner so memorable. We wish you continued success and can't wait for our next visit.

Nice little local bar. Sits right next to Hillcrest Hospital. Kind of doesn't fit in its spot, but…read moreknowing it has been here since the 1960s, I guess it does. Not a big place, but enough high tables and bar seats to take in a small crowd. A few low tables are in a room off the main space. Large patio outside.

Guy next to me had a Bigger Boy burger which looks to be their signature burger. It was big for sure, and nice and sloppy. Looked great! I will be back to check out a few other items on the menu.

I do not recommend going to this disgusting establishment. The owner Sam likes to get drunk and if…read moreyou're lucky enough, you'll find him there on Thursdays. (probably after a nice long day of golf) If you use the restroom, he's usually sitting at the end of the bar and will harass you when you leave the restroom. I've been in this establishment two times. The last time was June 18. I went to the restroom at 9:55 PM. This would be a good time to check your security cameras. Before even walked into the restroom, there were comments made to me by him that were inappropriate. Left the restroom where he proceeded to sit in his chair. Ask me if I went number one or number two. Then he proceeded to blow in my hair and tell me that I should be doing sexual favors for him on my knees as all of the men around him laughed. He proceeded to make fun of my hair, etc... Sam is supposedly a family man. This is supposed to be a family owned establishment which is posted online. It is not. It is trash. The owner is trash. How embarrassing for his entire family. All of the bartenders, of course, defended him as he was sitting there harassing me. Of course, at the time I didn't realize that it was Sam the actual owner. But of course, while I was taking up for myself, I was told by one of the female bartenders that "this isn't gonna fly here" when I was standing up for myself. I truly hope that maybe Sam can get his life together and stop harassing customers especially new customers. This is not a family, friendly establishment when the owner is completely drunk, falling off his barstool and using complete disgusting language to females that walk by him. I honestly have never had an experience like this before, but after it happened and speaking to other females that frequent that wonderful classy establishment, Sam is known for this. Save your money, time, and class...go somewhere else where you're not sexually harassed.

Until now a nice quiet place to unwind after a LONG week of work (doing cancer research) . Recently I found that mixing their bbq and chunk garlic is a fantastic flavor profile. I've even gotten it for others and they all love it too! Long story short is that the owners have decided that they refuse to allow this combo -PERIOD! I can't buy them some garlic nor am I allowed to bring any in (which I get). BUT seriously- wtf ! You'd think they would want to at least be a little flexible given the number of patrons at minimum (5 on a Friday at 7-8:00pm - see pic). Not to mention that they won't even consider giving it a try on the menu. HARD NO!! I try to patronize these little places to help keep momentum on their side but this sort of attitude just rubs me the wrong way. Just let me get it on the side even (I offered to pay extra). Again - HARD NO! At this point this is too much for me to swallow. I never give them any trouble about anything and always tip at least 20%. WHY is all I ask! Just to BE the BOSS I suppose! So, don't come to Madricks Tavern if you don't like it the way they like it. If you do - God bless you, but I'm not gonna be coming here as often if ever & I plan to share this story with all my friends. Not because it's the end of the world or anything (although that might not be far away ) but it's just such a simple thing that burns my a*s!! I do realize that this place isn't "Burger King" but still - isn't it still America! Peace - thanx for reading my bitch.
