Nice review from Matt:

The restaurant is a nice mid-size space with what I can only call an “old school” feel. It reminded me of going to some of the cooler restaurants with my family back in “the day”. This is not a bad thing! It’s just the opposite: it’s a comfortable, warm area where you feel like you are going to eat something special. It’s the opposite of the excruciating “corporate chain” experience…

As for the food? It’s described as “Euro-American Bistro”. The menu had a mix of solid standards and more interesting dishes to please us. We shared a (slightly) spicy shrimp appetizer to start. I had their chicken soup, which could have been considered a stew or a pot pie because it was so thick and savory. The biscuit served on top was amazing. Finally, I had the pot roast and my friend had the smoked-and-grilled salmon. We were both very pleased with everything and left happy.

If you’re looking for someplace to go for a good meal, check it out. It’s very easy to reach, being just north of I-90, where Eddy Road dead-ends into the lake in Bratenahl.
