The Willeyville is an exceptional Cleveland secret. The food, while not your average fare, is always fantastic and keeps you coming back for more. Don't expect anything standard here... Instead,
come in with an open mind and be prepared to be amazed. As a (very) occasional meat eater I tried the short ribs tonight and enjoyed every single bite. The sorbets were an amazing pallet cleanser too and can't be missed.
On top of an amazing menu, the staff sincerely care about the guests and want you to enjoy every sip/bite. After a few years the owner still takes an active role in addressing tables and supporting the staff.
We don't live close enough to make this a weekly stop but definitely make it a point to check it out a few times a year!!
Try it next time you are in the area, you will not be disappointed!
Tonight my girlfriend and I ordered two different three-course meals.
As we walked in, the smell, the lighting, and the music all made for a great ambiance.
It all started a bit dissapointing as they brought out the bread. The butter was rock hard as if it came out of the freezer. Fortunately there was a lit candle on the table to melt the butter so it could be spread.
The appetizers were decent. The calamari had great taste, and so did the hot chicken wings, but the consistency seemed as if the chicken wings had been frozen and reheated.
As for the entrees, the pad thai with chicken was delicious, but the salmon tacos were nothing short of gross. We both tried a bite, and there was an overwhelming "fishy taste" that salmon should not have, and it completely ruined the taco.
Overall the meal was okay, but price point was pretty high for a rather disappointing entree.
The food was so very good. I absolutely pounded heaps of bread because I could not get enough of the pesto butter. Definitely get the wings to start and keep the small plates flowing. Went with the City Chicken as my entree and was not disappointed. Well priced and great quality. This place will be bumping as the Flats redevelops.
Second time here. Great cocktails and lots of housemade goodies from bitters and ginger beer to soprasetta to freshly baked sourdough bread. I could do shots of their housemade ketchup. I had one of the specials with Miller Farms pork, which was perfectly done. One person I was with had the gnudi...fluffy, pillowy pasta with brussel sprouts, bacon and bleu cheese...some of my favorite flavors. The meatloaf was stellar, as it was when I was here before. The three of us shared the charcuterie board as an appetizer and probably would be been happy ordering three more as entrees. I also had Rice Krispie treat ice cream for dessert. Therein lies my only complaint; one small scoop didn't cut it. Finally, our server (Madeleine) was friendly, knowledgable, and attentive without being overbearing. All in all, an almost perfect restaurant experience, so stop reading this review and go!
If you can make it here, I think it's consistently one of the top 3 restaurants in Cleveland! They prepare their own meats and everything is farm to table. Highlights include "pig in a chicken", homeade ice creams and sorbets, and whatever the meat special is that evening. Staff is incredibly nice and professional, and the music is curated perfectly. I go here at least sevral times a quarter when i am in town staying at the attached Aloft Hotel.
Amazing dogs, they get in a whole local pig and create everything themselves - makes for good heartly natural food. Good beer to boot, swaggering bluesey soundtrack and a dark underground decor round it all off.
Excellent cuisine. Inspired and creative. The bibb salad is the best I have had anywhere and the salmon entree is excellent.
The Mrs. and I have been here a couple times
. Each time a very enjoyable experience. From the staff to the food...this place is well worth visiting.
I loved the drink menu. The food was good.
