Anyone from Cleveland?

[crazygame]

Next weekend I am taking my husband on a surprise trip to the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame for our anniversary. We are staying at the Hyatt Regency Cleveland at the Arcade. Does anyone have any recommendations for a nice dinner location?  Thanks in advance.

Not from Cleveland, but we've had fantastic meals at both The Greenhouse Tavern and Lola. Both of those are within blocks of your hotel.

If you go to Lola get the bone marrow.

YES!!! Anywhere on East 4th is great. Lola is fantastic. Mexican at Zocolo's. I'm not a fan of Greenhouse but DH loves it. If you'll have a car, lots of places in Tremont....Lolita, Mochimo, Crop Bistro. Red's Steakhouse has amazing meat.

I really like Urban Farmer too, but it may not be as nice as you're thinking. The food is fantastic though.

You can do dessert at the Chocolate Bar too. Or there is a cupcake place right next to the Arcade. IDK how late they are open. Bowling at Corner Alley after dinner if you want something fun and silly. See if Hilarities has any shows going on too. Need any other recommendations?!?!?

I recently ate at Cowell and HUbbard (at n Playhouse Square) and it was great. I don't know if Blue Pointe Grille is still open, but if so that's another great choice

The best restaurants, which are right across the street from the hotel, are Lola (Michael Symon), Greenhouse Tavern (Jonathan Sawyer - he just won James Beard), and Chinato (Zach Bruell). Greenhouse is my favorite! Get the chicken wings and buttered popcorn pot de creme.

The other restaurants on East 4th are not in the same league as those 3. You'll want reservations for any of those 3.

For a drink before/after dinner, Society is really good. It's also on East 4th.

Have fun! Cleveland is really fun this time of year!
