    Andrew surprised me with reservations for my birthday! I never heard of Nouveau before, but it easily became one of our favorite restaurants in Lake County. Our reservation was for Friday at 7pm, but it was surprisingly noisy. There were quite a few guests at the bar, but I wouldn't say it was overcrowded. For drinks, Andrew ordered the Passionfruit Spritz and I ordered the Boozy Blueberry. We also ordered the banana peppers for an appetizer. We love stuffed peppers so this was the perfect way to start our evening. I ordered the filet mignon and I believe Andrew ordered the Ribeye, which was a special that night. Our meals were wonderful and we talked about them for weeks. I'm so excited that we'll be back for Valentine's Day this year!

    This place has great service from the second you walk in. The ambiance, food, and customer service are top notch. Highly recommend this place. Our server Allison went above and beyond to make our experience great, ask for her!

    Crème brûlée was the perfect ending to a delicious date night dinner

    Our favorite date night spot =] Again, you will not be disappointed- ALWAYS great food, ALWAYS great service & ALWAYS a friendly, cozy environment.

    Another amazing biz travels random choice today. This time with Nouveau. I always sit at the bar and I'm always a pure carnivore. This pork chop with a cherrywood smoked/grilled flavor was on point! My bartender Kristy provided epic service, great recommendations, and I had the bar space practically to myself for smooth and easy ambiance.

    Where do I start ? Came for dinner Wednesday night and then came for dinner Thursday again. That should say something . I'm beyond impressed by the Staff and the establishment, it beyond exceeded my expectations. We have a lot of fine dining in the Poconos region with some higher end restaurants and this place exceeded them. The quality of the food is superior. Take a look at some of the pics of the food we ordered. Ended up meeting Sean the head chef and impressed how he runs his kitchen , everything goes with the flow . Make sure you make a reservation :) we ended up not making one and we got seated over looking the kitchen and it was the best place. You see all the action. Can't wait to come back from Poconos.

    The eastern suburbs of Cleveland are a little short on "fine dining" locations. We have a few, but not nearly what you can find in Cleveland proper or the west side. So when you find one you cherish it like a fine wine. And you hope it is not a fluke. Well such a place does exist in Concord at Rt 90 and Rt 44. As you approach you will see a large shopping center that doesn't necessarily smack of fine dining. You enter the center to find "Nouveau Bistro & Lounge" just a few doors down the line. Okay, so it's not the ambiance of Il Venetian or Chez Francois but trust me... give it a chance. When you enter and are greeted by a very pleasant and efficient hostess you will begin to change your mind. The establishment is nicely sized so there is no crowding but certainly adequate seating for a sizeable crowd. One thing I have become very sensitive to is noise level. I size that up as soon as I am seated. Well, this was very pleasant. Background noise and music was well balanced. Conversation around our table was effortless. One thing that did become quite apparent early on was the overwhelming air conditioning. I think it was set on "Arctic". No worries; a simple mention to our server and the problem was solved immediately... impressive. As you might guess from this comment, I was quite impressed with our server, Barb. She was friendly, easy going, very professional, responsive, and could take and deliver a joke. She was a very big part of a fine evening. The wine list is considerable with a wide selection. I enjoyed a marvelous Sangiovese. The menu is excellent. It has a nice selection to choose from without being overwhelming. I started with an excellent shrimp cocktail which included 6 - 3 bite shrimp and a very pleasant sauce with just enough kick. That was followed by 6 lamb pops that were perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. This is the 3rd time I have had the lamb in this establishment and it has been perfect every time. This was no accident. The chef is exceptional and consistent. Finally we had our coffee, which was just right. Followed by a marvelous chocolate peanut mousse. Perfect finish. Well, all you east siders; there is absolutely no excuse not to go out for a fine meal. The right establishment is right there in Concord. Take your special someone and enjoy. I guarantee you will.

    It's been a few years since we've been here and we only live 3 miles away. We snagged two seats for happy hour after multiple attempts over the last few weeks (sporadic and last minute and now we know why!). The service was exceptional from the bartender to the meals. Took advantage of the HH specials and tried the lobster nachos and banana peppers. Was soo good and I love how you can try the apps in a smaller portion to see what you like for a full dinner experience. I ordered the French onion soup and it was out of this world. I order this anywhere I can - and this was by far one of the best I've ever had. I then ordered the half size of the tuna dinner and it was amazing. I wish I wasn't so full bc it was the perfect combination of flavors and the rice cake was exceptional. Hubby ordered the burger and loved it. We will definitely frequent more often. The atmosphere was great as were the customers/staff!!

    Came here for the first time on a date night. Atmosphere was great. Food was flavorful and had great presentation. Cozy fine dining experience with laid back atmosphere. Highly recommend.

    Tomato bisque soup

    Giving this place 5 stars!!!! We went here yesterday for dinner since they had just reopened after being closed because of state mandated closures for covid-19. The staff was really friendly, and every one had their masks on and you can tell they were following all the social distancing guidelines so that was a huge plus. They have a beautiful outdoor patio! It was getting a little chilly and our waiter was kind enough to bring the heater over. My husband got their tomatoe bisque and lamb rack which was delicious and I got their CAB burger without the bun which was just as good and my burger came with an amazing jalapeno relish. Bathrooms are always an issue for me but it was so clean at this place and I was really happy about it. Can't wait to go back here again with our friends.

    Been here a few times now and every time has been absolutely incredible! I chose to have my bday dinner here and couldn't be happier! We started off with the Big Board which is a giant charcuterie board with a variety of delicious meats, cheeses, and other things you'd find on a charcuterie board - it's filled up nicely and I love the sauces they add. I had some oysters which went down in less than 5 minutes - amazing. Better than ones I've had at beach side restaurants. The entree I got the lamb rack, my boyfriend got the filet mignon - both cooked to perfection. The service was amazing and the quality of food was superb. I especially loved our server Christy I would recommend this place to anyone.

    Got up really early this morning and decided to go somewhere new for breakfast…read more Heard of the "Sunny Street Cafe" so we decided to give them a try. Easy to find right off Krile Rd. at the rt. 44 exist off rt.90. Giant parking lot with room for everybody. Good sized, bright yellow building is nice and cheery. It was a little odd when we entered and found portable A/C units all around the dining room... I'm guessing they're having a problem with the main system. We were promptly seated and a nice woman (Katrina) greeted us right away to take our beverage order. It didn't take long to realize the honky-tonk music was playing WAY too loud... especially for breakfast. But she returned shortly and took our food order. The menu is extensive with something for everyone. We both chose the Avocado Eggs Benedict with fresh fruit. It showed up quickly and looked great. The fruit was very fresh. The Benedict tasted good but could have been a bit hotter. We did enjoy our meal though. We finished with a good cup of coffee and received a bill for $42. All in all it was a good experience.

Our server was very pleasant took our drink order and got it back to us right away. After the day, I look like it did six years ago, but not old or worn out. I ordered the hash eggs and my wife ordered the eggs Benedict. Breakfast was good and we both enjoyed our meals. A little bit of Frank's hot sauce, always makes things taste better. They only complain is that their coffee is kind of weak but then again I do like a strong cup of coffee. So I might be fine for someone that doesn't like to get dark roast. There was one item on the menu that I'm going to try the next time and that's loaded hashbrowns. All in all look good experience.

Recently the restaurant must've been bought by somebody else and it is slowly gone downhill. We used to go there once a week for salads and now all they have is your typical cranberry smothered sweet fruity salads. There used to be a really good chef and a fabulous chop salad. When we walked in last Thursday, they were pretty empty. It used to be so packed all the time. We have gotten their burgers and those are usually always delicious, but the other night we went and we ordered smash burgers and the waitress brought us a different burger. It was smothered in some sweet unappetizing sauce. We told her immediately and she didn't seem to really care. We also used to get a lot of french fries, now it's just a small handful at the most. She never came back to the table and she never offered to take it off our bill. So disappointing. There used to be so many really great servers there, but we haven't seen them lately. I could be wrong, but I hate when these corporations buy up these restaurants and run them into the ground.

"Hook and Hoof" has been in downtown Willoughby for quite a while so they must be doing something right. And the fact that there aren't that many high level dining establishments in the Willoughby area helps. The first thing I noticed was the facility is very narrow which lends to a crowded feel. And all you need is one overly boisterous table (which was right next to us) and the noise level can be overwhelming. The server we had for the evening was very pleasant. She did a good job being timely with everything. But, it was odd that she often did not listen to an entire request (or maybe just couldn't hear) before walking away. There were a couple of requests for simple standard items that she wasn't even sure they had. I just found it odd. The food however was excellent. The kitchen staff did an exemplary job all night. I had a marvelous cocktail from the well stocked bar. And my double cut pork chop was fantastic. So full of flavor, juicy, cooked exactly as I requested. The sides that accompanied it were just tender enough without being mushy. And my banana cream pie was great. Overall, I give "Hook and Hoof" a solid 4. I definitely can see us going back. They deserve another try. You should give them a try and see for yourself.

The prices were astronomical so my daughter and I just ordered meatballs and potato wedges. I really wanted fish but there was only ONE fish dish on the menu and I didn't like how it was going to be prepared. There's a big disclaimer at the bottom of the menu that says "no substitutions or modifications". Geez, for a $40 fish plate you couldn't have modified it for me?? The meatballs were good, but came out luke warm. The wedges were good. The atmosphere was nice. For 3 meatballs, 5 potato wedges, and a 15% tip (she lost 5% due to not asking us for drinks) our bill came to $45. I *wish* I was joking. We won't be back. I honestly feel like I just got ripped off.
