    Espresso martini
    Breezy J.

    I absolutely love this place. Such a beautiful little hidden gem. Beautiful ambience. Tucked in a place I would never expect. Great seafood selection and wonderful bartenders. They make a great espresso martini and that's all I ever made. There's only street parking and that's really the only downfall of this place. Other than that, I would recommend again and again.

    Hidden gem! Food is always great and the portion sizes are pretty big even when ordering takeout. Nice ambiance in the front dining area but it fills up quick sometimes so I'd recommend making a reservation. Luckily the back patio is usually open no matter the season (enclosed & heated in the winter of course). Great date night place!

    This restaurant has been on my to go to list for a few years now and I'm happy I finally got an opportunity to try it out. The neighborhood isn't the greatest and the exterior isn't too flashy but the inside and patio are very welcoming. The patio is actually very nice and maybe one of the little hidden gems in Cleveland. There's an outdoor covered bar and all the patio seating is covered. Table bread was served with tapenade, olive oil and balsamic, and an assortment of olives and cheese. We went through two servings. It was great. We decided to order an app and got the shrimp au gratin. Wow, what a home run this was. I've never had anything just like this, and it was everything I didn't expect. The shrimp was sizable, the mushrooms were tasty, and cheese cream sauce was perfect. Dip your bread in the cream and you have a happy face. The short rib entrée may be one of the best cuts of short rib I've ever had. I was definitely impressed. We also got the lamb shank and risotto meal and it was also pretty good. The only low point of the night - service was a little slower than average. But it was a great time overall and I'll be back.

    Came back for a second time. Everything was just as good. Sat in the open deck this time, quite nice. We enjoyed the food just as much the service was great as expected.

    Thank you

    Second time here. Kate was the bartender she is new and was great. However, Steven not my liking. I ordered kettle one with lemon muddled martini style,...I got spoken to like I didn't understand my drink. Like I was confused, after I explained it again, he asked me did I wanted juices?!?!? Again I took my kettle one with With lemon--muddled.. I didn't have the issue with the miscommunication or even the fact that someone did not understand my drink. My issue was the way he spoke to me like I was confused, or didn't understand. Like belittling me or that I was stupid .. It's ok if he didn't understand how to muddle my lemon. Please don't judge me like I don't know my drink. I do understand when people judge others. Which I do think he tried (so cute) my look isn't the normal here in this area, Steven it's ok. You didn't know what muddle meant but learn and don't be rude I will make sure 20 percent is given Kate didn't deserve anything less

    I thoroughly enjoyed the culinary experience at the Standard. It is tucked into an unsuspecting area of Cleveland and is truly a gem. They accept reservations and appeared to have ample seating inside, outside covered and outside uncovered. The menu is truly a culinary experience. The 4-star recommendation is based on the menu being eclectic and not offering a few more simple/basic menu options for those that may not be adventurous with their palate. Luckily our group was open to the adventure and enjoyed our selections. The drinks were great, staff was amazing, and food was awesome. Everything was well prepared, seasoned just right, and delicious. I wish I had left more room for dessert options or if they offered a dessert flight. Everything was great and I highly recommend.

    This place is so quaint, you walk in and think ...where am I gonna sit? It is divided into 2…read moreincredibly distinct areas of seating. The tables are closely placed so if you are looking for privacy, this is not the place. The food has great recipes and flavors, although the portions are conservative. We had plenty of variety. The escargot was garlicky good. The New England clam Chowder was a bit salty but full of clams. Let's move to the beet salad...loaded with sweet beets! Yum. The scallops appetizer was well portioned but the mushroom cheese sauce was missing in mine. Lastly, to end on the best note, the bouillebaise was perfect! Yes, I will always return because I need to try other items! There is one restroom on the floor and 2 more tiny private ones downstairs, but it is a potentially dangerous trek down and climb up. Not at all an ADA friendly spot to eat.

A shout out to Phil who was doing all the things most of the evening- bartending, seating, serving, clearing.....and he never seemed stressed. Service was great! I had a salers spritz to start. Quite tasty and new to me. For dinner, I had the duck confit special. I loved it. My friend had the lamb shank. Both entrees were delicious. For dessert we split a bananas foster crepe. Yum! All in all a lovely, relaxed evening. Unhurried service. Highly recommend!

    La Ville Lumière --a French brasserie that opened in late 2024--beautifully blends casual elegance…read morewith a return to authentic cuisine and elevated service. We were able to try a variety of dishes, and everything felt thoughtfully prepared and made from scratch. Standouts for us included the vol-au-vent with escargot, rosti, filet mignon, scallops, sea bass, and the rich, creamy French onion soup. The flavors were well-balanced, the presentation was colorful, and some elements even had a fun, interactive touch (like the Parmesan crisp). One thing that sets this place apart is how versatile it is. It offers a bar area with happy hour, a strong cocktail and mocktail selection, and French-inspired bar bites like mussels and steak. There's also a more formal dining room for a sit-down experience, plus a private dining space available (free Mon-Wed, fee the rest of the week). They've also recently opened a café next door, which is worth checking out on its own--great selection of pastries, macarons, crepes, and coffee, along with wines, cheeses, and other French specialties. The atmosphere is elegant but still comfortable, and the service was attentive and professional throughout our visit. Overall, a great hidden gem whether you're looking for a casual drink, a full dinner, or even just coffee and dessert. We'll definitely be back.

    Went here for drinks for a girls night and had the BEST experience!…read more Drinks were incredible and had great happy hour prices. Bartender was so great, made some of his own tweaks to the drink menu due to running out of ingredients and they were still amazing. Super kind and would definitely come back to try food next time. Super cute restaurant and everyone was so friendly! Will be back!
