    We went there after a Guardians game for dinner. Definitely a great place for fans to gather for drinks. We were unsure of what to do for getting food, and finally a staff member came to our table and gave us menus. The food was good and server was attentive after the initial wait. Great food and convenient walking distance from stadium.

    We've been here a few times, but not when it want bust at all It was kind of nice to have most of the place to ourselves. The drinks come out cold and the bartenders are fast. We haven't tried that food here yet, but it doesn't look too bad. Will definitely try it next time we're in town.

    Legendary Cleveland bar. A must visit place when you are downtown for a Tribe / Cavs game. Haven't eaten here yet, but never heard any complaints! Definitely a place I will return to whenever possibly because you simply have to do it.

    Came here after a hard thanksgiving day at the hospital. Never felt so welcomed as a nameless one more person in a bar. Our first time and felt immediately comfortable. Stephanie is kind of really super awesome.

    The service at The Clevelander was great. It was a busy day with the Guardians having a game but the servers were extremely attentive. Young happy patrons created a great atmosphere and the Nachos were absolutely amazing!

    i wanted to leave a current review because most of them were 6m+ . Food was so good and drinks were exactly what they need to be :) Muni Lot Burger/fries, Mayor of Tremont(wasn't really spicy)/Onion Rings, Black Raspberry Lemon Drops. All highly recommended. Our waitress Mallory was also great, very friendly and attentive. Typical loud Sports Bar atmosphere--much fun!!! I give this place AND

    Son and I decided to eat here since it was close to the ballpark. Place was pretty packed 3 hours before game time. The staff looked overwhelmed! We ordered the pepper jack cubes appetizer, the Bernie Bernie burger, and the buttermilk chicken sandwich. The burger and chicken sandwich were solid. The pepper jack cubes appetizer was HUGE. It honestly was big enough for four people to get their fill and they were outstanding. I'd like to have our tater tots cooked a little longer so they were more crispy, but my son thought they were fine. Our server was good, but he was trying to wait on too many tables and at times took too long to refill our drinks. Our order took quite some time to arrive (about 15-20 minutes), again I think because they were very busy. Was disappointed that they were out of their stout on tap and also a lager wasn't available. I think all of the "negatives" were a result of back to back huge crowds at the Indians game. They probably would be on top of it if one visited during mid week or a non-baseball day.

    Debris all over ground, large outdoor seating area.

    They have a great outdoor seating arrangement, you'll just have to look past the debris all over the place on the ground . Went here before the game and ordered a hamburger and some tots. Hamburger had no seasoning on patty however, was tasty with grilled onions, mushrooms and cheese. Tater tots were also not seasoned. Our tea came with a floating inch long and slimy object. Waitress brought another tea. Probably one of the best outdoor seating places downtown. Food is ok and we had a friendly waitress. The restaurant removed our drinks from the bill without being asked.

    Custom cheeseburger with egg and onion ring. Sweet potato waffle fries.

    The setting (view of Progressive Field on one-side, and downtown Cleveland on the other) was really cool.

    This is a very good sports bar, many tv's watched the derby and nba playoffs, wings very goodread more

    My family and I stopped in for a bite to eat. We looked forward to stopping here since they have a…read morewide variety menu. Unfortunately once we walked in we told them we had 4 people, and the host interrupted us and said "Slow down and speak up". I was not impressed by this service. It was incredibly rude and not accommodating towards us at all. Once we were sat our server took a bit to greet us however it was busy due to the games going on. Once she got to us, she asked who's on a separate check. I attempted to explain to her that I was going to order the Artichoke dip on my check, and my entree with the rest of the food. She interrupted me multiple times and would not let me explain. Eventually a person in my party spoke up for me and informed her what the plan was. The food however was amazing. We started off with the Articoke dip. It was a perfect combination of savory from the dip, and salty from the tortilla chips they use. I ordered the Jerk chicken sandwich and it was seasoned very well. The ranch that they have is also delicious. Another redeeming factor was my boyfriend ordered a white bread pizza with pepperoni. The manager came to tell him that the order was messed up, and that they were going to redo it and while he waited they served him free fries. Im not sure if I would recommend dine in for this restaurant, the service needs some work however the food is perfect.
