Great beverage options including 2 ciders on draft and tons of food options. I had the $5 pizza special (THU) and my daughter had the quesadilla (her test for any place). - both were on point.

LOL Been here many times, have never walked out saying "Wow,…read morethat was good." I tolerate it when others suggest we meet there. Last night for the Draft, they had a nice crowd at the tables, but hardly anyone at the bar. Hopped up on a tall bar chair and nearly fell off as a wooden support piece was dangling from the bottom. Switched chairs and, while I didn't fall off, I could rock back and forth on it..weak wood again. Then the LOL kicks in. Two people behind the bar. For the next two hours, we were not spoken to. Every single thing we ordered, we had to get their attention. The male was particularly hilarious as he never even made eye contact with us as we were begging for service. The food? Less than meh. Very Gordon Food Service in taste and presentation. The bill for four domestic beers, one sandwich and one small pizza (a Thursday special low price) was 54 bucks before tip! It's a mystery to me why there are so many cars in the parking lot every time I come. I know the atmosphere is good for kids (loud and big inside). But the Winking Lizard does everything this place does for less cost and 100 percent more quality. LOL!

(Last visited September 20, 2023.) Hanging out in Cleveland, OH on business and it's…read more#WingWednesday! So I did some searching on Yelp to see who's got the best in the area! A place called Characters Bar & Grill kept coming up. So here's how things went! Atmosphere/Appearance: This place is like... at the EDGE of Cleveland's city limits. Lol. Brookpark Road or something. Once I pulled up it just felt like a nice, neighborhood spot! It does have a private parking lot, big outdoor section (where we sat) and plenty of space on the inside. It's a traditional setup. TVs everywhere, random swag and decor all throughout, plenty of high-top tables for seating and a big bar rail. The energy was lively and the music was so random. Lol. If you've been, you know what I mean. Service: I can't remember the name of who took care of us, but she was funny, sweet and just made sure we had everything that we needed. Food: While here I was able to try a few wings, so let's begin. First up were the Mike's Sweet Island Heat. For the record, if you order 10 wings, you can split them into 2-5s for an extra $1.00 if you want separate flavors. Also, on the menu there are 3 "types" of sauces that they offer. The first kind are Buffalo based sauces, the 2nd are barbecue based sauces and the last is "other". Lol. Anyway, these looked amazing, were super saucy and were a decent, seemingly normal size. I got lots of good fruity notes and aromatics as I put the wing to my nose. After tasting the flavors carried through with a bold, fruity, rich flavor. There was good spice and it felt like a chipotle based spice. It was a unique flavor for sure that I hadn't tasted before. Next up was Lenny's Honey Sriracha Teriyaki which is a mouthful of a name, but the flavors showed up! It was a good teriyaki base with citrusy lemon flavors that actually made my lips pucker just a bit. These weren't spicy at all, but it was missing something, I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Next up was Chipotle which I was lead to believe would be the hottest sauce on the menu based on it's placement on the menu, but I was wrong. This one did have some GOOD heat to it. The ingredients were balanced very well that created very bold, rich, hearty, chipotle flavors. I really liked this one. Next up were the Mild Buffalo. These were super saucy, juicy and had a very straightforward traditional Buffalo flavor that had some excellent flavor. The bleu cheese to go with these was a creamy, mild sauce that would cool your mouth down if you can't handle the spice. Next up was the XXX Buffalo which is actually the hottest sauce on the menu. The sauce was a bit watery which is a dead giveaway that it wouldn't be as spicy as it claims to be. It was still delicious, but the spice took a while to kick in, but it's nothing to write home about. It was like a kicked up Buffalo. Value: It's a sports bar, so the food won't be terrible expensive. I was there on Wednesday and wings were $1.00 each. Not bad at all considering how expensive I've see some. They even had $5.00 steaks this night, but I can only imagine them being a Salisbury steak or something. Lol. In conclusion, I had a blast here. The food was great, the people are awesome, I felt welcomed and it just felt like a good place to hang out! I look forward to returning and trying some more flavors!

Thought I'd give it one more try couple of new bartenders ordered a drink and two bartenders had to look at a sheet on how to make it or look at a recipe, they should be trained before you put them at the bar without supervision. I got my drink and sat at the bar for 45 minutes. No one has asked if I wanted to order food. I've mentioned in previous reviews, I used to come here once or twice a week. I'm done with this place. And I feel like the literary tavern is on the same path. Cantine and the literal Tavern I used to go to all the time, I'm done with these two places. Same owner apparently management doesn't care. It's so annoying watching a bartender scroll on their phone for 20 minutes and then talk to their friends for 20 minutes that are hanging out at the bar. That's not why you're here.

Nice waitress. Not too crowded. Free parking on weekends. River burg $13.50 was huge, well made. Great burger like the old days. Cheddar, bacon, onion ring. Reminiscent of those old big burgers at burgers n beer. Fries were good too. My brother loved his cheesesteak wrap. Saw a nice girl cooking back there. It was all inexpensive too. 3 beers & the burg was $30 out the door. No complaints. I'll prob even be back. Haven't walked in here in 15 years and in spite of the lousy reviews it was same as ever. New owners no worries. I even walked across to Simone's and bought a bourbon. 4 stars thanks.
