The Cabin Club

The Cabin Club

(The Cabin Club- Located in Westlake Ohio) 

   Since I was turning 18 my parents thought it would be nice to out to eat at a nice restaurant. My dad, being the big steak man he is, suggested we go to "The Cabin Club". He goes a lot and raves about it so needless to say I was excited! 

    Pulling up to the restaurant it literally looked like the name sounded, it looked like an actual log cabin! For some reason this made me a bit unsure of how well I was going to like the restaurant but my dad humored me. 

   

When I first opened the door my opinion immediately changed. Right there at the door was a host and I can honestly say he was a genuinely nice man, he thanked us over and over again for choosing the cabin club as our restaurant of choice. He would come back to the table periodically throughout the meal but was in no was a bother. The interior was lit dimly. They some how figured out how to take a cabin hunting kind of feel and make it very elegant. I applaud them on that I was truly impressed.


 
 As for my meal I ordered the Salmon which came with broccoli, my choice of soup or salad, and rice pilaf.  The salmon was probably the best cooked fish I have ever had. It was crispy on the outside but silky on the inside. For desert I ordered their chocolate moose which was just as impressive as the salmon. The portion was large and it was very light so i was crazy full afterwards. My parents also ordered a bottle of wine which probably wracked up the price a bit but the bill was high, around $180 ish. I can not deny the fact that it was expensive but it was a fantastic experience and I will definitely be going back soon. I recommend anyone go there!

 If you've never traveled to a place like Texas or any area close to Mexico then you may never have tried authentic Mexican food much less been to an authentic Mexican food restaurant. Las Cazuelas is very close to what a Mexican food restaurant would be like and surprisingly it's in Ohio! In fact 9 of their workers were arrested for being illegal immigrants, its that authentic, none the less the service is very friendly.

The interior of the restaurant is bright and interested, when you go they want you to have the whole experience! Right when you sit down they bring you salsa and chips which is of course wonderful! They have a wide variety of food selections including many vegetarian dishes. They also have lunch and dinner specials. The food was very good and they give you a lot for what you pay. The food really isn't that expensive especially for the portion size, Ive always left with left overs and i always leave extremely full.

I would definitely recommend you go to Las Cazuelas if you are an avid Mexican food eater and seek better Mexican food with the entire experience!


Tommy's!

Tommy's Restaurant

Tommy's is a very well known restaurant to Clevelanders, located in Cleveland heights on Coventry. Coventry itself is a very fun place to shop if you just want to pop in some cute little stores/head shops. They also have the grog shop on Coventry where you can go see some bands and just get the whole night life experience. If you do find yourself strolling down Coventry I suggest you stop in Tommy's to grab a bite to eat!

The décor is very refreshing, unlike many restaurants people are typically used to seeing. You almost get the feeling that you're sitting right there in your own kitchen. Tommy's found a mix between modern day and old fashion and decorated from there! Its really a cute place to have brunch or really get food at any point during the day.

I went for brunch and wasn't to hungry so I ordered the French toast which came with maple bacon. To my surprise their menu was filled with not only so many different options but the food combinations were nothing like I've ever seen! Their menu was actually entertaining to read. I also enjoyed the fact that instead of a side of fries like you would get anywhere else they gave you options like yogurt or sesame sauce.

I couldn't pass up the opportunity to order one of tommys famous shakes! A nice change from the typical chocolate and vanilla, I finally decided to go with moose tracks and I was not disappointed. The milkshake was really very good and not only that but the portion size was more then any person would ever need! I was impressed with the different types of milkshakes you could order, from peach to black raspberry chip to peppermint stick, they had it all!

I really recommend going to Tommy's if you find yourself in the Cleveland Heights area! Its a very refreshing change and anyone would enjoy it! ( link to Tommy's online menu) http://media.wix.com/ugd/0d85a0_e980e79dd9ecacd4cbf45ed83f2feeab.pdf?dn=DESSERT%2BMENU.pdf
