The kitchen was a little slow, but our waitress mentioned it ahead of time and that was OK. We tried the Moqueca for two with lobster. It was delicious, a vibrant Brazilian seafood stew, which was rich and creamy and flavorful. We would both definitely order this again. The serving was generous. We had the salgadinhos as an appetizer and they were delicious: three different kinds, cheese, chicken, shrimp. Think of them is like little empanadas and we would order this again. Cocktails were all great as well. Overall, a wonderful dinner!

Tonight was another Saturday night date night. But this was a special one. My wife just retired and…read morethis was our retirement celebration night out. So she chose the Christmas lights of Chagrin Falls and "Odd Fellows Restaurant" which looks out on the Gazebo and all the lights of the square. We arrived at the restaurant and immediately were seated at a comfortable table in the center of the room by a very professional young woman. Very shortly after, the sweetest, most bubbly young lady greeted us and introduced herself as Bianca, our server for the evening. I can't say enough about Bianca. She was absolutely extraordinary. Friendly is an understatement. She had a beautiful smile that never left her face. She was so personable you could not help but feel comfortable in her care for the evening. Throughout the 2+ hours we were in her hands she just kept getting more impressive. If you decide to give "Odd Fellows" a try you would be doing yourself a great service by requesting her as your server for the evening when you make your reservation. Our initial order included refreshing drinks from the bar along with great crusty bread and excellent "Roasted red pepper soup". Very nicely done. We followed that with our entrees. I ordered the "Sesame Tuna" which was very nicely prepared. My wife and sister-in-law had the "Walleye" and they loved it. My brother enjoyed the "Shrimp Bucatini". I must say the kitchen did an exemplary job all evening... Kudos to the entire kitchen staff. We followed dinner with excellent coffee and very nicely presented desserts. A marvelous finish to a marvelous evening at "Odd Fellows". I give them my highest recommendation and encourage you to give them a try. Don't forget to request Bianca -- she is the cherry on top.

Started off with bread that came with a great garlic butter. Wish the bread had come out warm but it was good. I had a Caesar salad with shrimp for dinner which was great, filling but still light and the shrimp were fantastic, nice and big and very flavorful. We also ordered Brussels sprouts, fries and "onion rings" for the table. The Brussels were fantastic, probably my best bite of the night. I also really loved the fries, they had the perfect amount of salt which I always appreciate. The onions rings were very good, but I would call them more of onion straws so just be sure you know what you're getting if you grab those. Others at my table enjoyed the burger a lot, as well as the shrimp pasta. A lovely holiday experience overall!

I had the Asian salad with salmon and my husband had the fish and chips. The fish was so crunchy and light. I wish I had order his fish. But my salmon was cooked to perfection and the greens were fresh. The salad dressing was a vinaigrette and my only concern was that it needed more flavor. But the textures of the currants and cashews were really very good. We had the sticky toffee pudding cake with ice cream for dessert to go. It was also really yummy and light. This is one of our favorite places and we will be back soon!

The portobello mushroom was marinated in balsamic. I'm not typically a fan of balsamic, but since I love Portobello I gave it a try. Unfortunately the balsamic marinade was too much, I almost choked with the first 3 bites. Both of my daughters tried the mushroom and agreed that it was too much balsamic marinade. This was the first time I returned a meal. Our waitress, Brenda, was AMAZING. She quickly had me order something else, which was promptly brought out to me (and it was delicious). Throughout the rest of our meal she continually apologized. I was not angry...I understood. She made this possibly bad experience a good one. My daughters enjoyed their meals. (Unfortunately my granddaughter did not enjoy hers - she ordered mac-n-cheese - and according to her it was tasteless.) Regardless, I love Bistro83 and I will go back, and the wonderful way we were treated is one of the reasons.

I came with a large group- 11 other women from a foodie women's group I am a part of - for a birthday celebration in August 2026. We made reservations in advance and didn't have any trouble finding availability for that day and time. The interior is very large and there is lots of seating. We had a designated server who took our orders and waited on us and he was very friendly! I didn't buy a drink but I tried a friend's mango lassi which was so creamy and rich! I thought about getting myself a masala chai but was too cheap to. I ordered myself a basket of tandoori roti which was glazed with butter ($4) to start off with. Others at my table ordered appetizers as well, including someone who bought a flight of pani puri. This flight made for great pictures! For my main, I got the Pubjabi chicken dish, medium spice, which came with a side of basmati rice ($20). Everyone who tried sone of my dish loved it, as did I! I was very happy with my choice. I also had enough for leftovers, although granted, I was filled up on roti bread. To our surprise, our waiter surprised us all with two servings of their signature Indian dessert, gulab jamon, for a complimentary birthday treat! I love gulab jamon, which are small honey balls of spongey cake, and have had them many times before. The gratuity was included automatically due to the size of our party. My check came out to about $32, which is not bad for how good the food and the service was! I highly recommend dining here for yourself. There's plenty of room for large parties!

The hariyali kabobs had an incredible flavor and the fruity, spicy sauce was delicious. Loved those. The fish fry was tasty and also came with a yummy sauce. The pizza had a great flavor as well and I really liked it. I would like to try other pizzas and other dishes. We'll definitely be back because this place has a menu worth exploring. Yum!

The restaurant was lively and bright inside, with eclectic decor. Lots of seating options as well. We started with some cocktails, and I was impressed with the flavors combinations they offered. The violet skies was refreshing and light with the perfect amount of sweetness. I also tried the goddess spritz, which had a great watermelon flavor. The crispy calamari was a great starter, both sauces (chili aioli and curry aioli) complimented the dish well. Prior to our entrees, we also enjoyed some sesame red bean paste balls, which I LOVED. The flavor and texture were great. As an entree, I ordered the market fish which was a monkfish with mushrooms, green beans, and pomegranate. This was the best fish I have ever had. It was cooked perfectly, and all of the flavors blended together beautifully. The mushrooms were a great compliment to the nuttiness of the fish. 10/10 dish. I also tried my partners dish, the Sunday sauce, and it was delicious! The different meats in the dish made every bite full of flavor. The meatballs were also well balanced. Lastly, we enjoyed the house-made tiramisu, which was divine. It was rich and creamy with an amazing coffee flavor. Truly a wonderful way to end the meal. The ambiance, great. The food? Amazing. But the best part of our experience was our server, Kean. He made this experience for us truly memorable, and I would recommend this restaurant just based on his hospitality alone. He was attentive, gave us amazing recommendations like the market fish & the calamari, and overall we just really enjoyed chatting with him. I will be back, see you soon Elle!

We had an amazing time.
