    Sauteed Shrimp for her and the Shrimp Dinner for me, great!!!
    James W.

    We guessed that it is probably pretty good seeing lots of cars in their ample parking lot, so we decided to give it a try. Gladly we were not deceived. The Bowls of Chili we started with were tasty and very satisfying especially when I requested more chopped onion. My wife and I love good shrimp so she ordered and thoroughly enjoyed the Sautéed Shrimp, and I loved my Shrimp Dinner. Keep up the great work 43!!!

    4 Alarm Burger and fries Just a little spicy! GOOD!

    Great little tavern with local bar vibe and delicious food! Staff was super friendly and attentive. Having to kill some time while our car was getting serviced at the Discount Tire next door, we stopped in for lunch on 10/15/22. Great menu filled with your typical bar favorites, with a lot of surprises! These guys do it right! Good stuff! Definitely recommend!

    Station 43 Tavern is full of charm and character! Throughout the tavern, the walls and rafters are decorated with firefighter patches, ladders, axes, and extinguishers. Over the bar, you can find a fireman jump trampoline and golden vintage fire extinguishers as lights. This neighborhood bar honors the local firefighters while serving average bar fare. It is best to stick with the basics when ordering. On our recent trip, we ordered twelve mild buffalo barbeque wings to start. The wings were plump and meaty with a distinct crispy skin. The flavor was tasty. I ordered the Italian Sausage Sandwich with Sweet Potato Fries. Filled with onions and colorful peppers, Lou's Italian Sausage Sandwich has a mild flavor. The Sweet Potato Fries were crunchy.

    Local gem! Today was (somehow) my first time coming to Station 43 Tavern. The location is right in 43 and the restaurant has a decent sized parking lot. The interior is filled with firefighter memorabilia. It isn't a huge place, but was very nice. The menu was filled with different options that left me "oohing" over and over. They had specials each day and summer options. I got the summer entree shrimp Alfredo with spinach. The entree came with a salad and dinner rolls. The salad seemed to be stored and quickly delivered as it wasn't the most fresh. The Alfredo dish was huge and delicious. The sauce was tasty and the shrimp was cooked well. Service was very quick and the waitress filled up my glass every time it was low. I would go back to try out more on the menu and to support a local restaurant compared to a chain!

    Just average. More options then just the normal bar food, so thats a plus. We got the breaded porkchops, ive had better but whos meal they were liked them. I got the chili which was the best thing we got and the grilled wings. Bbq ones were better than the cajun but not all that the waitress hyped them up to be. Nothing to exciting or to bad. Like I said just average. There is a seperate dining room from the bar if wanted to bring family or kids.

    Great food great atmosphere. It is our third time here for lunch, one of these days we need to make it out for breakfast! Typically we take the puppies into Banfield at Petsmart monthly for "butts and nails". Lol. This is our stop for lunch on those days. We've tried a few other local watering holes but typically come back to Station. Good honest home Made food, nice selection to wet our whistle and cool deform- all historical to Firefighting back to the 1900.

    Service is always excellent. The wedge salad ( ask for blue cheese dressing) with the steak tips or the salmon is amazing! On Saturdays they have a burger called the smash burger, which is excellent as well!

    Capriccio's may be new to Solon, but judging by the consistently packed parking lot, word has…read morealready spread--and for good reason! This spot brings a shareable Italian dining experience, meaning large portions that don't compromise on flavor. For me, the true test of an Italian restaurant is its red sauce, and Capriccio's nailed it--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Whether poured over pasta or served alongside hearty entrées, you can taste the quality in every bite. And speaking of pasta, they make theirs fresh, which adds an extra layer of authenticity and texture to every dish! Beyond the incredible food, they offer craft cocktails, which immediately caught my attention because, well, I'm a low-key cocktail snob--the more intricate, the better! Their drinks are thoughtfully prepared, adding a perfect complement to the meal. Now, let's talk about dessert--because their Biscoff cheesecake is TOP TIER. Creamy, rich, and full of that buttery Biscoff goodness, it's a must-try. The server was very attentive and knowledgeable. Tip: Make a reservation Capriccio's is tucked away enough to make it an ideal date night spot--whether with your partner or your sneaky link (no judgment here!). I'll definitely be back for more of their authentic flavors and cozy vibes!

I also placed a to go order of Shrimp Fra Diavolo and chicken Alfredo from the BYO pasta section. Both were large portions and very good. The Diavolo had great heat and was perfect for me. All the packaging was very nice. A super quaint Italian bistro that has great food and service. I can't wait to return and have dinner again.

The food was overall, very bland. It was expertly prepared, fresh, and beautiful. But the taste was quite boring. Be prepared to eat a second dinner when you get home. Also be prepared to sit at the bar- this place is very tiny. The vibe is nice. Low ceiling, dimly lit, comfortable cozy. The server/ bartender (I'm pretty sure she was running the whole place) Nikki, was phenomenal. So friendly, good drinks. We started with the oysters which were good. The mignonette sauce was a little different, it had lemon zest in it. It was very good! But the give you laughable amount. Like, a splash. Then we had the fig and prosciutto toast. This was the highlight for us. Tasty all the way around, 4 generous servings on the plate. Jam was so good and the prosciutto was warmed up ever so slightly. I had the hangar steak with some unseasoned boiled carrots. The steak was tender and high quality, but I couldn't taste a bit of seasoning. Also served with a tiny crispy potato pancake. Husband had the halibut special. This had some wasabi crust and if you got a bite of the wasabi it was good. The bites that weren't crusted were boring fish. Again, very fresh and prepared well. Black rice and asparagus also boring. I got a hint of lemon on one bite I tried. We also had the Brussels sprouts, which were charred along with the few pork belly pieces. Husband finished with a whiskey crème brûlée which he enjoyed. He did not, however, enjoy his Dark and Stormy. He said it was all booze and no beer or mix. Sadly, we won't be back.

    We visited 17 River Grille for my mom's birthday (her suggestion, as she had previously been there…read morefor lunch), and it turned out to be an excellent choice. We had an amazing experience. Per our request, our party of six was seated on the outdoor patio overlooking the Chagrin River waterfall, which made for a beautiful setting. One thing to note: you cannot reserve patio seating in advance, but you can request it upon arrival if space is available. We started with four appetizers: *Heavenly Biscuits - AMAZING. *Short Rib Potstickers - Excellent. *Spinach Artichoke Dip - Excellent. *Grilled Artichoke - Good, but not really my style of dish. For entrées, we tried several different items: *Grilled Fish of the Day (Grouper) - Excellent, although the portion was on the smaller side. *Lake Erie Walleye Fish & Chips - Very good. *Thai Steak Noodle Salad - Excellent. *Steak and Frites - Excellent. We also ordered two sides: *Coleslaw - Very good. Is it the best coleslaw I've ever had? No. Is it excellent and worth ordering? Absolutely. *Roasted Baby Yukons - Excellent. Since we were celebrating a birthday, the restaurant graciously provided a complimentary dessert sundae. While the gesture was appreciated, I do wish guests were given a choice of dessert. The sundae was fine, but with several outstanding ice cream shops nearby, the ice cream itself was fairly average. Service was quick and efficient overall. There were a few minor areas for improvement: Wet naps would have been appreciated, as we had to request extra napkins multiple times throughout the meal. Service slowed down a bit during the dinner rush. The steak entrée arrived noticeably later than the rest of the main courses, which may have been due to the kitchen being overwhelmed. It also took a little longer than expected to receive extra plates when requested. These were relatively minor issues, however, and did not significantly detract from the evening. Overall, this was an excellent dining experience with great food, a beautiful patio overlooking the waterfall, and solid service. We would gladly return and would certainly recommend it for special occasions or a nice evening out.

    Tonight my wife and I decided to celebrate our 29th wedding anniversary at 17 River grill. Now I've…read morebeen there before no stranger to it but I felt there was some issues that needed to be addressed. Our reservation was for 7:30 we arrived about an hour early just because I really like being prompt. At first glance when you walk into place I reviewed the dress code. Apparently I'm the only one that reviewed the dress code. Baseball hats, t-shirts hoodies not the collared shirt casual business attire that was required on the website. We checked in for our appointment our only prerequisite is we really wanted to have something with the view for our anniversary. We waited in the bar and ordered some drinks while I pass the time with my lovely wife. There is a fruit fly issue that needs addressed. I could not help but notice for all the employees standing around they're certainly were a lot of tables that went un bussed. As you had people that wanted to be seated one could logically deduced that bussing the table with one way to do it. After a while I went back up to the server station to check on our status all three people at the service station were entrenched into their phones. Tick tock, Instagram doing anything but bussing tables and tending to the customers. I interrupted the ladies whom were supposed to be working to have them check on a table for me. Nothing was available yet but the table had to be cleaned off. Ironic because they could have put their damn phones down and cleaned the table. One of the biggest time wasters with employees and restaurants is that phone. There's a restaurant in Cleveland called Town Hall that once reported to work your phone gets locked up therefore you get locked in to your job. This place would benefit greatly by making their employees lock their phones up. We ended up getting a table on the patio downstairs and my wife nearly bit it on the dirty and greasy carpeting as we walked downstairs. It was gross and indefinite need of being cleaned. Overall everything seemed sticky and dirty windows made it feel unclean. We were seated at our table for about 12 minutes until we were approached by our server she was very nice but clearly she seemed a tad overworked I'm not sure how many other tables she had. I counted no more than four different servers and two busboys walking by this table that had a bunch of dirty glasses on it and nobody bothered to pick it up. My steak frites were the highlight of the evening my wife had the filet which was also amazing for her. We had finished our mail and our conversation and we're ready to go but unfortunately our server was MIA. I could see her through the windows she wasn't wasting time she was actually working she appeared to be one of the only ones working. She must have received my message and came out to bring us a box and the bill. I went into the into the restroom on my way out of the door and in the men's stall I couldn't help but notice the lock had been busted and you couldn't lock the door. Which was super awkward as I was using the restroom there was a fellow who opened the door and got an eyeful. Nice evening cap. As we traversed the slippery greasy steps to head back up and back out I couldn't help but think how far this place must have fallen. I was unable to spy any management as I kind of felt feedback was necessary at this point. I chuckled to myself as I passed the hostess station in the same hostess that seated us, that I had to have her get off her phone to seat us was still on her phone. Must have been a really good video. So to whomever the owner or manager of this establishment is do yourself a favor: eliminate phones. That's the only way to save this place. There's no excuse to leave glassware and dishes piling up on tables that could be used to seat folks that want to have an enjoyable dining experience. * Clean your establishment. * Eliminate phone usage. The lack of productivity did not go unnoticed. I was not the only customer whom noticed. * Repair broken restroom locks in the downstairs men's toilet * Address the fruit fly issue in the bar * Degrease the steps and carpeting before someone is injured * Make an attempt to enforce the dress code so you don't look like a chili's * MODs need to be visible. Management by presence is an effective way to enforce duties. It's a shame that a place with such a fantastic view is not a place I would go back to.

So I ask for the REAL manager So now I get the GM And then the beignets come that he said the first manager said he would give us Why. Why because first he offered a dessert for each wrong order but the he sent out the waitress to tell us that was too much The the beignets come out and they are on my bill They tried to make it right but who sends out the waitress to be the hatchet man ?? Not professional at all The. Before we leave we checked with the bank. Amounts not right So back to the waitress and GM All in all not a good experience. They tried but complete misses the mark They bought out dessert to go but it really doesn't fix the experience and frustration. The food was good but not exactly right and the waitress was very nice trying to help but not her fault. At all. Nice young lady and trying to be helpful. But she should not try to fix what was t her fault I read a number of reviews but service was a less Than good theme This review is not good either What could they do better? Let the servers know what is not available In the kitchen not a surprise at delivery Management should understand when they offer a solution not to change after the offer And they should make sure the charges are correct don't modify a bill close it and redo it I have run restaurants and clubs You want repeat business, make it right
