   Great food and service from Lina, our server. The French toast sticks are to die for!

   The food, service, and ambiance were excellent. Grace V provided excellent service through out dinner. We tried a variety of house cocktails, appetizers, entrees, and desserts. Highlights were the pork belly, chickpeas, and whipped ricotta. For dinner, the scallops were very good, loved the cauliflower puree. The only criticism I’d have is the added Seared Tuna on the salad…the add-on was more expensive than the salad itself and included 4 rather thinly sliced pieces of tuna. The salad was delicious, but we’d likely skip the tuna next time. I’d recommend saving room for the Pavlova, which was one of my favorite parts of the meal!!

   I wanted to like this place. Our server was very nice and attentive, the environment was cozy but maybe 10 mins after we were seated, they turned the music up so loud I couldn’t hear my friend. I love some nice ambiance music but this was club level and I had to strain my voice to talk to her and lean in to hear her. We ordered the seared tuna app and roasted beets. Both were smothered in sweet sauces, not for me. We both were excited to order the sea scallops but were warned by the staff it has a “high ocean profile” and they did not recommend it. Assuming they meant it’s fishy? We appreciated the heads up but it let us know the quality of this restaurant is not what their pricing suggested. I ordered the airline chicken and my friend who is pescatarian ordered the Caesar salad with salmon. Both were ok but again, nothing special. Cocktails were good. Our meal with apps, main course, one side, and two drinks each came to almost $200.00 for sub par food and an incredibly loud atmosphere. I rarely give bad feedback but that’s how disappointed I was. Too many better restaurants in Cleveland to ever go back here.

   I honestly didn’t know anything about Westsiders when a friend suggested it. I was blown away at how delicious the food was. The ambience was very cool also. We had tuna, ricotta and peppers as appetizers and they were all amazing, but the tuna was my favorite. The filet, pork chops and scallops were delicious and presentation was done really well. The ONLY somewhat negative is that the food actually came out too fast. Each course came out immediately after we finished a course and we wanted to enjoy the company with friends a bit between courses. I give this new place a solid 5 stars! Can’t wait to go back.

   Love the atmosphere! Great bar and set up. We had cocktails at the bar before our table was ready. Impressive and unique drink list, the bar tenders clearly know what they are doing. It was fun to watch. We really enjoyed the appetizers, the main dishes had good flavor, loved the Salmon and pork chop, the pasta dishes tasted good but reminded me of something I could easily make at home. Great service.
