My last night in town. I was tired and didn't want to think about dinner but I wanted something good. This hit the spot. I was surprised really. I sat at the bar. The filet was sooooooooo good. Cooked perfect. The potatoes were amazing. I ate it all. I'll be back if I'm in town again..... read more

Burntwood Tavern - New American Near Me - Solon, Ohio

This was my second time here and first at this location. I was not disappointed! The Nashville hot fried chicken was delicious. Crispy crust with tender meat. The sweet to savory ratio was spot on! read more

Great food and very accommodating for our party of 11 - with 2 kids. Can't wait to go back ! read more

The experience was not pleasant. The tavern was nice inside- interesting mix of casual and modern decor, plenty of space, and fireplace gave warm ambience. However, Chad and lady who were welcoming guests were not doing well their job. We waited for our table for 45 minutes. Every time they promised that table will be ready in 10, 5, 15 minutes. The most what upset me that two guys were seated faster even we came first- they didn't have reservation too. Also, there often were 3-5 open tables that just needed to be cleaned. Instead of cleaning tables and faster accommodate their guests, the welcoming staff made us wait... Finally, we got our table in the bar area. I understood that place was busy, but waiting for the waiter, food, dessert was forever... the food was plain- I couldn't say that something was extraordinary. However, I will complement selection and taste of desserts. I don't want to return and I think there are plenty of other nice restaurants! Ps. I feel bad for the owners of the place. Welcoming staff can ruin someone's business in the same manner as incompetent waiter or cooker could. read more

See all

Burntwood has weathered the recent competition from the now closed ("Tavern on 91"). It's always interesting to see how new or stiff competition affects a restaurant. In this case, I would say it was all for the better. The seasonal menu is out and is definitely worth trying out a few items (e.g. Lobster Pierogi's!). The observations from my previous review have seemed to effect positive changes, which is great as we all have room to grow. Consequently, business meetings and other group outings that were diverted elsewhere will not be brought back to this BWT! All in all, this is one of the gems of Solon and is uniquely located to attract crowds from neighboring towns and cities. Lastly, as this is patio season you'll be hard pressed to find a better local establishment than here. I personally recommend arriving early and making reservations as space is limited. read more

I absolutely love this place. The food is always incredible. I always get the beyond burger or the fish and chips. There is a diverse selection of appetizers. I love the sliders, flatbread, calamari, and firecracker shrimp. The service is quick and the food is brought out on time. The hosts are always very nice and welcoming. I cant get enough of this place! I will definitely keep coming back. read more

Went there tonight with my wife. I'll start with the good first. The waitress and the older woman might've been the owner or manager that work there were sweethearts. The firecracker shrimp was really good. The Caesar dressing for my salad tasted really good. Unfortunately the chicken looked like it was a frozen piece of meat not really well seasoned and kind of dry same for my wife's a chicken. Her salad had apples in which were soggy. We saw the bartender handling our blueberries for our drinks with his bare hands. He also was walking behind my booth and dropped the f bomb. Don't know who he was talking to but he kept looking us really strange. I probably won't go back but the two women we encountered were amazing. read more

The firecracker shrimp was amazing in taste and came out promptly, however the portion could be bigger considering the price. My server was pleasant and funny but service was slow due to all of the big parties due to graduations etc. It may have been better if management helped the serving staff instead of standing around the hostess booth. There were four managers and only one was helping out clearing tables grabbing drinks and getting water. All in all it was ok, may try again on a slower night. read more

Burntwood Tavern - New American Near Me - Solon, Ohio

sliders were good: bartender ok; salmon overcooked. probs would stop in again if in the area

The entrees are good though a bit small in portion size for the price. Unfortunately the appetizers fall a bit flat for me. It's a decent place for an impromptu happy hour, as they have HH daily from 4-6 and not just on weekdays. In addition to drink specials (try the moscow mule), they have half price appetizers and flatbreads during happy hour. It's kid friendly -- they even offer crayons for little ones and on mondays, I believe kids eat free with the purchase of an adult entree. read more

The food is usually pretty good. (My zucchini frites were a little bland and messy), drinks are good and prices are decent. We like their happy hour. The atmosphere is really cozy at all the locations which make it a very nice experience. read more

Over-reaching effort to be high end bistro. Extremely well trained wait staff. Nice facilities. Menu is basically high end bar food, poorly executed. Came here for lunch. Were given 'brunch' menu. Lots of sandwiches with fried egg on it, including a burger. I had the burger. Meat seems like frozen patty. Very greasy. Not bad, but not great. Pickles had weird flavor. Daughter had Caesar with chicken. Tasted like frozen chicken heated and store bought dressing. Rest of food was just fair. Huge beer selection. Large bar. More like a nice bar with above average bar food. read more

Burntwood Tavern had great half price appetizers and flatbreads during Happy Hour from 3-6 pm. Loved the atmosphere and it was packed when I went! Fast service and the food was delicious! Def a recommended place! read more

Burntwood Tavern - Burntwood Tater Tots and the Spinach Artichoke dip apps! - New American Near Me - Solon, Ohio

Why 5 stars? When I cannot think of a thing to suggest to improve, that is what I rate a place. In this case, lunch on a weekday, everything was good. The server was attentive and easy about altering my companion's salmon. He enjoyed it. Even though I ordered a simple Wedge Salad, it was impressively delicious and I ate every bite. I have eaten here before and was favorably impressed. Good food and good serve. What more can I ask? read more

If I could give 0 stars for service I would. The service tonight was terrible. We were seated at a table that had no silverware on. Our server arrived after 5 mins and said 'sorry I will be with you soon'. We placed drinks orders which arrived promptly. After waiting more than 20 minutes to order I asked the man at the front desk if we could order. He came by 5 mins later and said our sever was busy and took our order. 30 mins later our food arrived and it was incorrect. The boy who delivered it corrected it within 5 mins. Our original server totally disappeared. When we asked for the check they took our card and a gift card and then everyone disappeared for 20 mins. We asked another server to remind them and they eventually appeared saying there had been an issue with the gift card (which no one came to tell us!) ... so we paid what we owed and left. The food was very good. We have been here many times before and it's been good. Tonight was inexcusable. If you are short staffed/ make a mistake/ have an issue - come and talk to your customer. Don't just leave them sitting there... read more

excellent service!!!! excellent food!!! I hosted an agent appreciation buffet and I would highly recommend this restaurant if you have an upcoming event. the room was spacious warm and inviting. my agents were thrilled with the experience. read more

Went for dinner with a group of six. We made reservations for six-thirty and we had drinks at the bar until we were seated about seven. For appetizers we had calamari, tater tots and blue cheese and bacon chips. We really didn't wait very long for the apps to come out. Luara was our main server but occasionally she was helped out by other staff. Luara was very pleasant and efficient. I had Swordfish with mixed vegetables and a salad. Everything was prepared perfectly. Others in our party had fish n chips, cedar plank salmon, Swordfish and something on a bun. I wasn't paying attention : ) There was live music and he was very good. It wasn't too loud so we could all carry on a conversation. This is a perfect location especially if you have a large party. I have been to almost a the Burntwood locations and this one is the top 1 or 2. read more

My family walked into the restaurant, 3 pm on a Tuesday, no host(tess) or bartender greeted or anything. We stood at host stand for 15 minutes with no employee acknowledging us. As soon as a party of 2 walked in, an employee came up and sat the incoming party immediately. completely ignoring us, the party of 6 that has been standing there for 15 minute. read more

Food was ok. I went for breakfast and it was delicious, but i also went for dinner once and although the food was fine, the smell of the burnt wood made me so nauseous we ended up leaving early. read more

It was an excellent dine in experience. Though they were busy they still went above and beyond to fulfill all our requests.

Good old standby with amazing, different menu options. Living nearby, we frequent Burntwood as often as possible. Sometimes we make a game day decision to go which often leaves us unable to be seated. If you are going for dinner, make plans in advance (reservation!) because they get crazy busy. We have only had one time when service was bad. Seems somebody wasn't sure if we were their table and just kept cruising by us. We finally had to approach the host to get someone. Other than that, their service is terrific. We always get the tavern chips for an appetizer. Their salads are very tasty. I usually get the Tavern Dip or the sliders as my meal. Always spot on delicious and fresh. I went for brunch a few times too and that was a nice experience. read more

God awful. I was seated at a table that was not cleaned well. I ordered the spinach artichoke dip for an appetizer and a Margarita flat bread for dinner. The spinach artichoke dip arrived first and was cold. The chips and pita tasted old and it was kind of soupy. Within a few minutes my Flatbread arrived. It was also cold and flavorless. The waitress did not even inquire about my meal when I asked for my check having taken only one bite of the Flatbread. Definitely one of the worst restaurant experiences I have had. read more

Burntwood Tavern - Terrible - New American Near Me - Solon, Ohio

The food was just not good, over cooked. I even tried the desert, my ice cream was fully melted. read more

The food was delicious. The atmosphere was warm. The service was great. We would come back!

Unfortunately, my experience wasn't wasn't much more than 2 stars tonight. Table was sticky. Atmosphere felt dated. Our server didn't seem to completely know what beers she had available. The one IPA she said they had in draft came out not very cold at all, so I opted to have her take it back and I just drank water. Menu seemed to be better in the past-seemed very limited. Food wasn't terrible but also didn't knock any of my family's socks off. I hope someone associated with the restaurant read this review and does what they can to make future experiences better. Just seems as though this establishment continues to go in the wrong direction. read more

Had the best burger and fries in Solon. Great service. One of our favorites. Happy hour was blast and so was the calamari and the chicken fingers. Good place for a date. read more

Not bad tasting, but Pretty skimpy and expensive. There's about 2 thin-sliced pieces of beef in the French dip.

Stopped for lunch and had the Sicilian Flatbread with Tots at the bar. Nice place to relax and enjoy a good meal. Looks like the outside seating would be nice during warmer weather. read more

Terrible service... rude waitress. We had a toddler with us. Asked for crayons, she said there weren't any (even though she gave us a kids coloring menu?), asked for bread, she said they didn't do that. Then my water glass was refilled with sugar water (apparently it was accidentally mixed with simple syrup from the bar, What?!?) Food took forever to come out even the appetizers. Food was mediocre at best. Also, super sticky table... why?! Hadn't been here in a while and now I remember why. Just NOT good! read more

1 star is too much for this place. They're nasty and have attitude. It's an over priced burger joint and the burgers aren't anything to write about. I think my 3 yo grandson could make the same burger. Don't bother going here unless all you want to do is drink and that's overpriced too. read more

Hands down the best restaurant in Solon. Been here countless times and the food never disappoints. The firecracker shrimp, calamari and the chicken sliders are so delicious. The servers and hosts are always super friendly and professional and the restaurant is always clean. Go here if you're in the area! read more

This restaurant has gone completely down hill since it opened. The service is HORRIBLE. The kitchen never gets the order right- not the first time or the second time. They had 1 waiter for 20 tables. It was absurd. Food is horrible. Will never go back and I've been there since the beginning. Such a shame since it's so pretty inside. Do not waste your valuable time !! read more

I need to be 100% honest with you: I don't love Burntwood. It's part of a restaurant group with mixed reviews on their food and service. However, even if I don't love it, I can respect it. The Solon location is constantly slammed and is a beautiful building with a huge patio. The food is upscale American fare with sandwiches, salads, entrees, and some specials. The beer list is long, but not overly diverse, and I think this is the first place I ever paid $8 a pint for an IPA. The food is fine, but it's not really trying to be great. It's a lot like the Rusty Bucket in that regard. Despite that, visiting with lowered expectations actually provides a better experience. The staff was courteous and helpful, and has been on every visit. read more

Happy hour at Burntwood! Fab food and prices! Half price apps you can order to fill up and $3 bottles or $5 signature drinks can't go wrong with this place! read more

Burntwood Tavern - New American Near Me - Solon, Ohio

Reasonable priced, close to home and not too crowded. This summarizes our experience after stopping at the third bar and our final destination that night. The service was great and the staff was friendly, we just wanted something light on our way home and to relax. We've accomplished both of our goals and definitely will be back again soon. read more

Very good food and restaurant. Bartender Bryan is very friendly. Went with good friends and had a very nice time

Met some friends there for a drink and dinner. It was early not too many people around. Service was very slow as the bartenders and wait staff were engulfed in conversation that was either a shirt change or Just BSing Anyway finally got a drink, the wrong one but didn't want to wait so drank it. Ordered some apps which were very good, shrimp and tots. Great finger food for a couple beers. She kept asking about dinner as the out the apps on the table. We will after the apps! 2 more times, before we ordered dinner. Food was good but maybe a good wake up call on the wait staff. One bartender looked right at me and then dropped his head into an ice chest. Heard it was a good place so maybe I will try again read more

Was told wait for patio seating was 45 minutes. So we waited. There were 4 open tables out there. Even a waitress came up and asked us "why are you standing"? She went to the hostess and came back rolling her eyes. No luck. They finally called us for a table after 45 minutes - but for an inside table. I asked what about the 4 (still open) tables on the patio? She said they were reserved. I said but we've been out there nearly an hour - nobody has shown up. Then was told well they are first come first serve ... SERIOUSLY? Which is it? Reserved or sit yourself? They finally seated us at one of those open patio tables. From there service was fine. Food was just OK. We probably won't be back. Only other explanation was to stall us from being able to order during happy hour. There are better options out there. read more

From the time we walked in till we left, we had excellent service. Wait staff is very friendly and accommodating! Great recommendations by our server Rosalia. Food was prepared quickly and we were checked on frequently! Thanks Burntwood for making our experience a special one! read more

It really really pains me to rate them 2 stars. I've been to a few different Burntwood locations & this used to be the best, hands down. I'm not sure what happened but the food has really taken a nose dive based on the last experience I had. I ordered the Poutine & it came looking very pretty but the fries were absolutely rock hard. No exaggerating, literally chips off a cinder block hard. It was almost like they'd taken leftovers & dumped them on the plate. My vegetarian wife ordered the pirogies & they put beef gravy on them. Even after she told the waitress she was vegetarian. I also ordered the Asiago chicken which was average. My son ordered the cedar plank salmon which was a sliver of fish & not medium as he'd ordered. He scarfed it down because it took almost an hour to get the food. Definitely sub par in every aspect. The firecracker shrimp was the only saving grace. The manager came twice to apologize which is appreciated but I think they are really struggling with an identity crisis; are they a live music tavern or a full service restaurant? Don't get me wrong...if the former than that's my mistake. The ambiance & decor is stellar & having live music is definitely great. Maybe my expectations are too high because I go there for the food. If management reads this review, please know I'm not looking for a free meal & probably won't be back. I just hope they can fix these issues since it's a shame to have mediocre food when so much is invested in everything else. read more
