I stopped here on a cold Saturday out with my mom. We were beyond hungry and opted for the Tremont Burger and Cheeseburger respectively. The burgers really hit the spot and were overall tasty. My mom was a big fan of the onion ring in her Tremont burger. Since we were out and about it also got a purple haze mocktail which was well balanced and I'd recommend. When we went it was still lively despite being post-lunch rush and pre-dinner rush. Service was good and the atmosphere was lively and full of locals which is always great to see.

The restaurant and bar area are huge and even include a cozy outdoor space with a fireplace, which creates such a great atmosphere. The décor is fun, stylish, and gives the whole place a really cool vibe. We were a party of six coming in for dinner on a Saturday night. Since we made reservations ahead of time, we were seated right away, which was a great start to the evening. I ordered the Honeybee cocktail and it was AMAZING! For my entrée, I had the grilled chicken sandwich, and it was absolutely perfect. The portion size was huge, so I even had half to take home and enjoy later. Everyone at the table ordered something different, and every single dish got rave reviews. It's always a good sign when everyone leaves happy! I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

I used to love this place. The patio, the bar, the neighborhood and the food. I don't know what has changed but it's just basic bar food now, nothing special and nothing worth the drive. Also when we ask "what's on tap?" DO NOT TELL US TO "GO ONLINE". if you're a server, memorize the list ITS UR JOB.

Comfort dining at its best. South Side is always welcoming and delicious, especially at Christmas time. We stopped in before heading downtown for a Cavs game and the staff was pleasant quirky and quick. They offer a weekly special menu for when inspiration hits the chef, not to be overshadowed by their regular menu full of bar, bistro and home cooked delights. We settled on a mix of starters and entrees. The lobster bisque was hot and smooth, with big ol chunks of lobster. The rosemary fries were simple but ohhh so good, I could have easily had 2 bowls. The pierogi were delicious, I like my dough a bit thicker, but the chive sour cream outweighed it all. I also have the shrimp tacos, flavor was good, but the guacamole was not my thing, it just felt off. My husband had the lamb smash burger and loved it. So if you are looking for ambience, flavor, a great beer list, and friendly staff then head to South Side for dinner and drinks.

Setting: Saturday, 6p pregame meal before Cavs We had a reservation and were seated promptly. Surprised to see some open tables. Everything was wonderful. Atmosphere not overly noisy. Service was adequate. Food was very tasty. Lobster bisque was creamy and decadent. Brisket fries were unique. I tended to share with hubby. They could have been a meal in their own.

We went for my friends birthday and All the food was amazing. I tasted everything. Mines was the French toast and sausage. They make their sausage homemade in house. The French toast was really good. The burger was absolutely amazing! I will go back just to order that. The service was great and the ambiance was very inviting.

ROSEMARY GARLIC FRIES and pirogies

Not sure how this was the first time ever tying this place. Great service and excellent food! Jordan was our server and was outstanding. Went there before a Cavs game and it did not disappoint. Really great menu . I'm impressed with the scotch selection, Balevenje 14! They also have Peroni draft! We were seated in the fireplace area it was comfy and casual. I will definitely be back as there is more in the menu I want to try!

Korean Fried Chicken Sandwich
Beth M.

Had lunch here with a friend. Everything was truly delicious. I had the Korean Fried Chicken Sandwich and it was outstanding. The flavors had me thinking about it all day long! It was big but I could not leave a single bite behind. One of the best sandwiches I have ever had. Rosemary garlic fries were also very very tasty. Server was attentive. Our table was near the window, nice bright spot.

Nachos...for the $10, it was a great sharable.  Needed more cheese but good flavors!
Jacqueline P.

Always, all ways...this is one of my favorite patios! The food is tried and true. The service is always on point! The ambiance is casual and comfy... come as you are!

Beautiful day!

Excellence! Great Food, service & ambiance! I took a client there for a business lunch meeting. The client liked the food and ambience so much that they are returning with their family.

Watching soccer

We called with a need for a reservation for 10 and they were able to get us in. They were so kind. We arrived and got a nice table. The appetizers were wonderful! Especially the Brussels sprouts. I had a cheeseburger that was perfectly prepared. They accommodated some special requests- like letter for a burger instead of a bun. The sandwiches were huge! Salads were fresh and tasty. Everyone enjoyed their meal. The soccer match was on so we joined most of the patrons in watching. The entire place was having fun!

Southside in Tremont is always a good choice. I have been here several times and the food has consistently been very good. I have tried the Tremont burger, pierogies, noodles, a few appetizers, and other entrées I cannot recall, and everything has been enjoyable. Drinks are well done, and the brunch champagne bottle deal is one of the best and most affordable in the area. The one drawback is the bee problem on the patio. It seems to be an ongoing issue whenever I sit outside. If you are allergic I would not recommend the patio, but otherwise the food, drinks, and atmosphere make this a solid place to visit.

Korean spicy chicken sandwich, onion rings. Short rib Philly and chips.

Has always been a solid place. Nice indoor/outdoor patio. Good food. Worth stopping by.

STARS OF THE SHOW: 1. Burger Box -- The patties were…read moreperfectly cooked, the bun was fluffy and soft, and if you love tomatoes, I would absolutely recommend adding their fresh tomatoes to your burger! There was just the right ratio of their homemade sauce, which complemented the smokey cheddar very well. 2. Over Dressed Greens -- I truly did not expect this to be one of my favorites of the night! The salad is generously mixed with their homemade white French sauce, and you could really taste the freshness of the vegetables and produce. They pickle their zucchinis, which was such a pleasant surprise because it added a crunchy texture alongside the croutons and the pickled flavor truly elevated the entire salad! 3. Jammy Eggs -- Egg yolks were cooked to perfect consistency and I loved their take on an Asian-fusion style dish with their furikake seasoning, which also gave slight crunchy texture alongside their creamy sauce that gave a hint of spiciness. 4. Szalay's Sweet Corn -- The mix of the cacio e pepe and miso aioli worked really well as the sauce for the sweet corn and gave it a creamy and savory flavor with every bite! All the cocktails we tried were very special and delicious! Their ingredients list includes unique combinations that pleasantly work for the drink. My favorite drink was "Never Too Much" and I don't even like Hennessy like that haha -- it was such a refreshing drink and the peach and lemon flavors truly was perfect for the fall season. As for service, our waitress Tate was incredibly friendly and efficient and gave us complimentary dessert due to a slight water spill during the meal. I can now fully understand the hype of this restaurant and when I come visit again, I will absolutely be back -- no questions asked!

My wife and I recently went to Cordelia for a special occasion and had a great experience. We had…read moreexcellent service from when we were seated on-time for our reservation to when we got the check. Everything came out in a timely and well-paced manner and our server went above and beyond in providing outstanding midwestern niceness and hospitality, explaining dishes to us, engaging in conversation, answering our questions, and working with the kitchen to make some minor accommodations to the dishes. The prices were also reasonable for the portion sizes. The ambiance is an interesting, funky mix of open piping with an open kitchen concept and artwork with a nod to Cleveland. My wife and I split several dishes and were fine to outstanding; however, I am giving Cordelia four stars because several dishes were way too salty, affecting what otherwise would have been amazing dishes. My wife and I shared the following dishes: Party snacks: One of the two star dishes of the night. The bread was crispy and served as a great vehicle for the dips. The carrot muhammara, farmer's cheese, and jammy eggs were particularly good and the three snacks I would get if I were only ordering three snacks. Blooming Eggplant: The other star dish of the night, besides being unique with Michelin-caliber presentation, the fry was perfect, the sauce was good, the coating was crispy, and the eggplant well-cooked. The lemon brought everything together and provided some welcome acid. A little on the salty side but very good. Cavatelli: The cavatelli were perfectly al dente; unfortunately, the sauce was overwhelming salty and took away from the pasta. Tomatoes a la chaoshou: The tomatoes were in-season and extremely fresh. The sauce was good, if slightly salty. Ohio Green Beans: The green beans were perfectly cooked with some firmness, nicely seared, and presented well. The zhug was quite salty and detracted from the green beans, although the crunch of the pistachio was excellent. Kate's Fish: The lake walleye was fresh and the accompanying sauces were good and provided nice flavor to give body to the fish (although a bit salty). The skin needed to be crispier; overall, an OK dish but nothing distinctive. My wife and I got the dirt 'n worms and the corn ice cream with caramel sauce for dessert. The caramel sauce was good; the corn ice cream was bland and the mousse was average. I would recommend Cordelia for your next special occasion.

We got there at 11:45am. Upon entering, a pleasant young lady greeted us and, as they were not at all busy, told us we were welcome to choose any table we liked. So we sat right at the window along the river with a very nice view. Quickly thereafter a bubbley, smiling face arrived by the name of Sara. She brought us our water and took our drink orders and away she bounced... marvelous. Shortly after, she returned with our drinks. She very effectively answered our questions and we placed our orders. We were both not too hungry so we stayed with the starters menu. We shared an order of the "Heavenly Biscuits" and I added the "Marinated Olives". Then we both had a bowl of the "Lobster Bisque". Everything showed up in a timely fashion and in proper order. All of it was excellent. I must say, the bisque was exceptionally meaty. A pleasant surprise. As we were finishing up I mentioned I was looking forward to coffee. When Sara arrived I told her we would both like a cup as soon as we were done. With a big smile she said I heard you talking about it and already started a fresh pot for you. I was amazed... such a simple thing, but an example of extraordinary service. My compliments to Sara and the Lakehouse for employing her. After finishing our coffee we took a long stroll on the boardwalk all along the East Bank. It was a very nice afternoon. I recommend the Lakehouse and I highly recommend Sara... ask for her.

The house-made guacamole was absolutely delicious and packed with fresh flavor. It was the perfect way to start our dining experience. The short rib French dip was outstanding.

The fish was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly, with a light, crispy coating that complemented it beautifully. Overall, a fantastic meal with excellent service and food that exceeded expectations. We will definitely be back!

We parked in the back which was convenient for going to the west side market after. The patio is bright and well decorated with flowers. (Pansies is perfect for this chilly weather and while too cool to eat outside, it was nice to walk through the patio). The inside is rustic, wooden tables, a western /organic decor. A friend recommended the bone broths. I ordered the chicken. Yum. Very warm and wholesome! I also ordered the power bowl with Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, chili nut oil and an egg on top. It was delicious. Filling, so I took some home. The service was excellent. The people were really friendly! Looking forward to coming back to try other amazing things on the menu!

I think I was oversold on the whole "health food" situation happening here…read more As someone who doesn't eat animals, I genuinely like healthy food, and I'm exactly the kind of person who should be excited about a restaurant making thoughtful ingredients and dietary options part of its identity. Instead, the whole thing felt a little less "we care about what we feed people" and a little more "we would like you to know that we food better than you." There is a weird food elitism to the branding that would be much easier to swallow if the actual food backed it up. Unfortunately, for the price, mine absolutely did not. The menu talks a very big game about clean ingredients, non-GMO everything, special oils, organic this and carefully sourced that, but at some point the food still has to taste good. Healthy food does not need to be boring food, and expensive food definitely should not be boring food. I left feeling like I had paid a premium for the philosophy of my meal rather than the meal itself. To be fair, our server was incredibly sweet. She was warm and lovely and was easily the best part of the experience, so none of this is a criticism of the service. I was also genuinely surprised to see balloons being used as gifts for kids. Maybe that sounds nitpicky, but when a restaurant markets itself so heavily around wellness, conscious choices, vegan options and doing food "better," disposable balloons feel bizarrely off-brand. You cannot sell me environmental-adjacent food virtue and then using gimmicks like a 6 year olds birthday at Applebee's. That was kind of the theme of TownHall for me: a lot of messaging about being thoughtful, elevated and health-conscious, without enough substance behind it to justify either the attitude or the bill. Cleveland has too many restaurants making genuinely interesting vegetarian and vegan food for me to pay this much just to be lectured by a menu. Sweet server. Great location. Lots of dietary options on paper. But for the price? The food needed to be a whole lot better than "at least it's non-GMO."

This is a huge portion and can easily be shared by two people! As for my sweet craving, I ordered a side of their Kid's Spelt Pancake (essentially a smaller version of the entree size), and the pancakes were made perfectly! The pancakes were fluffy, layered with small apple chunks for a nice, crispy crunch, and topped with a homemade whipped cream -- I could literally eat their whipped cream for days! It was super creamy with a light sweet aftertaste. If you're looking for a dangerous savory sweet combination, look no further!! The service was quick and the staff were incredibly kind.
