A friend of mine and I went here one night before a Mike doughty concert that was actually in the other side of the city. I had been wanting to know where this place was actually located and to try their food. I would like to venture back since it's summer, and have some more walleye or yellow perch, and this place is part of the metro parks. Lots of out door seating and it's very clean. We sat at the bar were taken care of quite well, but it was early spring, and there was only one other table. The food was good, and they have wine, so I bought a bottle.

I wish they offered a few more vegan dishes. There were only 3. 4 of us shared 2 hummus appetizers & it was great hummus! Our server seemed to forget 2 out of 4 of our entrees (for our table of 4). Maybe he was new on the job, and feeling overwhelmed? They finally arrived after I spoke with him and it seemed the tofu had been very badly deep fried, maybe a rushed job of cooking it? It was still a pretty tasty meal and a fabulous setting, eating outside by the river, watching the boats go by.

Celebrated son's birthday here. Food was good...presented very well! The atmosphere is great, especially if you love nature! This is a gem in the greater Cleveland area, flat/warehouse district. I was very surprised to see ample, no cost parking! Great scenery with beautiful views of the river, surrounding landscaping and the bridges! The service was good as well! Sarah provides an enthusiastic welcome and is delightful! Kennedy was our server and she took good care of us! We will return as this will be a new favorite for our family!

Beautiful place to toss back a beer or two along the Cuyahoga River. Dog friendly with outdoor seating for watching the boats go up and down the river. Haven't tried the food, but everyone around me seemed to be enjoying their meals. Wait staff is attentive and friendly. If you visit Cleveland, this place is a must visit in the Flats.

Ordered an Old Fashioned paired with Buffalo Cauliflower to begin. Melts in your mouth and even though i'm not a fan of blu cheese, the combination felt right. Followed up with Shrimp tacos which were amazing. Shrimp was crispy, the tortilla was nice and warm. NOW THE REAL STAR OF THE SHOW WAS THE FISH AND CHIPS!!! Fish is the localy caught Walleye. Flavorful and crispy throughout, the slaw was spicy but freshing and the tartar sauce paired well with the fish. not sure if its homemade. Service is fast and attentive, ambiance is welcoming with a lake view accompanied by rowing teams.
