    Valerios is our go-to place for dinner before going to hear the Cleveland Orchestra. Love the rack of lamb with a side of pasta. Service is always good.

    I found the restaurant very inviting on a chilly February Sunday. The bar area was filled with guests, and the table areas very nicely arranged. Our waiter was very good, Mike, attentive and cordial. We had salads, appetizer, fish special, veal and pasta. The dinners were delicious. I think it has just become my favorite Little Italy restaurant.
