Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Downtown Cleveland / Playhouse Square

We celebrated our anniversary at Red because I wanted to celebrate at an upscale restaurant. I previously heard good things about the cuisine. We have lived in Cleveland all our lives and never had dinner there. So, I made reservations and let me tell you that our meals were spectacular! Our Filet Mignons were amazing. The Lobster Tail was succulent. We also enjoyed the cocktails we chose from an extensive selection. Highly recommend Red the Steakhouse.

This is the model for a great seafood restaurant… came here serendipitously two years ago not expecting anything.. was shocked a restaurant this good could be so far from an ocean. Returned today… hoping it was still great. It is. The staff greeted us warmly as if we were well-liked regulars. The atmosphere softly lit, with every table full, yet without feeling over-crowded. The menu just right… all the favorites.. with nice touches and specials… all fresh. Dessert offerings were solid… and maybe that best describes this restaurant… a solid 9 out of 10. It would hold its own in Manhattan, Miami Beach , Boston or LA.

Excellent service-Great Ambiance-fine dining at an affordable price -Meal presentation was outstanding and of course the taste

Christopher took care of us really well. Despite being arguably one of the best steak stops in Cleveland? We went for the seafood tower. Mac n cheese side and a chicken spring roll app. Food was incredible, everyone was attentive and the ambiance was superb. Honourable mention: the bananas foster desert is table made and done so beautifully. 10/10

Absolutely perfect. Everything we had was amazing, gorgeous, timely and a decent price as well. Celebrated my birthday and they gave us the cutest dessert! Also ordered the tiramisu and was so cute and yum. Has the best wine selection. Perfect secluded table. Even had live flute and clarinet player! 12/10 I would recommend every time to visit here. Thank you!!!
