Spanish and Portuguese fine dining in a casual atmosphere. Many cold and hot taps as well as entrees and daily specials. Wide range of prices, to fit any budget and served by a professional wait staff. Fun happy hour Monday through Saturday in the bar.

This was a good find. A local restaurant with great food and service. It was a little deceiving on Trip Advisor since I searched for “Latin” food. It was more Mediterranean food. I had the seafood platter with shrimp, lobster, calamari, octopus, scallops, and mussels. Very tasty!

Took home several different things. Got a chocolate crossiant (never made it home), plain crossiant, some rolls for dinner and a couple other things. Don't exactly remember the names. The person that waited on me was extremely friendly and she told me to take my time picking out what I wanted. Worth the drive thru the park ending up right outside their door.

The food, drinks, and atmosphere were a delight at this charming French restaurant. My husband and I came to the restaurant for date night. Chef Michael Grieve is masterful in the kitchen creating mouth-watering dishes that are packed with delicious flavors. My husband had the 8 oz filet mignon with augratin potatoes, summer squash and rapini. This dish was superb. I had the scallops which melted in my mouth and was accompanied by cauliflower and roasted date puree. I savored every bite. To end our wonderful meal, we had the bananas foster bread pudding. This dessert did not disappoint and left us wanting more. This is a five-star restaurant. We will definitely go back for more.

8. Rosso Gelato
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 47 reviews
Reviewed By Jen K - Hampton, Virginia
I had never had Gelato before going to Rosso's and now it has ruined me for all others! The gelato here is so vibrant and flavorful! They'll let you sample the day's offerings to make sure you're getting what you want. I've never had a bad one, and what I get just depends on my mood more than what they have.
My favorite is the naro chocolate which is a RICH dark chocolate variety. The blood orange is likely my second favorite. My husband loves the coconut.
Last time I was in Cleveland I gladly drove 40 minutes just to get this gelato!
It might seem pricey but 1) it's worth it for the quality and flavor, and 2) it's rich enough that you might be surprised to find yourself satisfied after even the small sized serving.

Chill out man! Enjoy one of our award winning beers brewed on site with one of our Headwiches( Sandwiches roughly the size of your head). Our smokehouse wings are slow smoked with hickory and grilled and basted with a house made sauce of your choice. Hickory smoked pulled pork can be found on a stone oven pizza, burrito, a Headwich, on top of a burger, in our chili on top of a mound of our fresh cut fries. Enjoy our uncivilized and aggressive Head Hunter IPA or maybe our Bumbleberry Honey Blueberry ale is more your speed. Cheers!

#1 - GO THERE HUNGRY! Portions are huge / plenty to share! The menu selections seem endless! Ribs, chicken, wings, pasta, salads, burgers, sandwiches, wings & pizza. I had “The Clevelander”, a sandwich of kielbasa, bratwurst, spicy kraut, cheese and Stadium mustard. WOW! One of the best sandwiches I’ve had! #2 - go thirsty! The craft beer menu is also extensive. The night we dined there, they had two smoked beers! A porter and a lager! Both were excellent! Our server, Kelly did a great job. Well done, Fat Heads crew!

OMG, I cannot recommend this place enough. We've been wanting to eat here for a while. Finally made it before our painting with a twist night. I think this is my new favorite place for tacos. We started with a Painkiller to drink, wow, a great blend of rum, juices and coconut milk with a sprinkling of nutmeg. We ordered some guacamole with pico de gallo mixed in. This came with a mix of tortilla, plantain and yucca chips. We couldn't stop eating this stuff. Then on to the tacos, I ordered one tuna poke and one blackened fish taco and a side of yucca fries. Both tacos were so good. I could have probably ate more, but I would have needed rolled out of there. Service was awesome, I can't remember her name, but she was very friendly and helpful with the menu. Place was clean. Great place to hang at the bar and have drinks and tacos.
