Diner Reviews

"Stayed at the Intercontinental Cleveland Clinic to which this restaurant is attached. (Nice hotel if you have an appt at CC). This restaurant appeared to be nice and the menu looked pretty good as well. Sat at bar for a drink before dinner. Bar tender was very friendly and good service at the bar. That's where the "good" stopped. Very slow service for dinner. I think they were upset we sat outside, but it was a beautiful night...especially for July. My salmon was like warm. My wife's pappardelle was bland. Mediocre wine to choose from. Ordered dessert...my ice cream was good but my wife's creme brûlée was absolutely terrible to the point of inedible. Before we finished the staff was putting down umbrellas and cleaning up."

"Everything was great except the drinks. I had to send my Cosmo back because it was tasteless. My husband rated his martini a 3."

"Excellent natural ingredients with itnernational flair. Delicious and carefully prepared. Comfortable with some particularly quiet tables. Also serves folks staying at hotel for Cleveland Clinic, so eclectic well-heeled clientele"

"Decent menu, but caters to an eclectic palate. My server didn't know the specials preparations well and assumed that my fish was baked vs. actually poached in olive oil...BIG difference. I wouldn't have ordered it had I been told the proper preparation. Service was slow as well. I ordered a frozen strawberry margherita and was served a syrupy mixture on the rocks. Also, the dress code is vast. My party was well dressed for a night out. There were patrons eating in flip flops, blue jeans and t-shirts. The only reason I would consider going back is because it is part of Tour de Bruell. I am thankful that I had a Cleveland Independents gift certificate. I would think that Mr. Bruell would not be happy to have this type of experience."

"This is year 3 of our Zack Bruell restaurant tour and Table 45 was very disappointing. We were introduced to our initial waiter (I forget his name) but as soon as we passed (due to my recent medical condition) on our usual bottle of wine we were passed off to what seemed to be a rookie waitress. From beginning of having to wait 10 minutes to place our appetizer order to paying the check took all of two hours when your restaurant was half empty. Again we will finish the tour but so far only our go to retaurant Parrallax would be rated highly. We went to La Batross for our wedding anniversary and this was equally as disappointing with a bad tasting entree being served and brought to the waitresses attention but not taken off the bill"

"Arrived at interconinental midd evening after flying in. Had reservatiosn and they accomodated our being 15 m late with aplomb. Were provided an excellent quiet table wtih room to spread out and quiet enoug to relax, just as we needed. Food was superb, sushi, fish, pasta. Lovely meal and very happy with our visit."
Dined on 7/17/2014
"The first bad sign was that the restaurant and bar were totally empty for a Saturday night. We ordered cocktails, entrees and dessert and all of it was subpar....bordering on tasteless. We are huge Zach Bruell fans but this restaurant was not even close to living up to his reputation."
Dined on 7/12/2014
"Kitchen under new but very well respected chef was terrific. Appetizers, salads, and fish were great and on occasion spectacular. Waitress was abysmal. Didn't have the faintest idea of how to stage a meal. Dishes appeared in a completely unorganized fashion. Misunderstood orders. The other wait staff appeared to be well trained and efficient. Only clunker of food was Lebanese Naan (pita) with feta with some colorful bits of pepper. Note that while the patio was great in every respect, it is subject to extremely loud noise when helicopters land overhead. Every 30 minutes, approx. while we were there. Roughly 5 minutes of noise. Decor, table settings and plating are great. Support wait staff very good."

"There were 6 of us and we al ordered something different.....and all of us LOVED it! Including dessert. Very nice!"
Dined on 7/11/2014
"A pleasantly varied menu, which was a refreshing change from a lot of the (good but) unchanging and too-classic menus in University Circle and the eastern suburbs. Excellent service and an atmosphere that is welcoming but also neutral enough that anyone can feel comfortable there. The food was very solid."
Dined on 7/10/2014
"The service is excellent, the ambiance is classy, it's a shame that sushi were substandard"
Dined on 7/1/2014
"When it is good it is very good but etc. The gazpacho and mussels were spledid. The sushi role was good. The pork belly was seved very cold and consequently inedible. When it was returned it came back barely warm but at least it was edible and tastey. The cheese cake was interesting but we have had better. The kitchen needs more of Zacks touch. Also it was quite expensive hence a poor value"

"We were celebrating a birthday and ordered dessert and they brought it out with a candle and it was on the house ."
Dined on 6/27/2014
"Quiet, pleasant surroundings. Mix of business and social groupings. Unique and varied food choices, except extremely limited for vegan options."
Dined on 6/17/2014
"Can't seem to master servicing a business clientele. Service is generally slow and inconsistent."
Dined on 6/16/2014
"The restaurant is o.k, service is above average. Portions are good for sandwiches and wraps but the chicken plates we ordered were very small. Surprisingly the "chicken" must have been a Cornish hen! The place is very big, so must be why the ambiance is not the best, maybe if it were more crowded it wouldn't feel so bare,"
Dined on 6/4/2014
"Ginger-carrot soup together with tomato basil quiche made this a HOME-RUN! WoW - nice combination while the mini chocolate mousse just topped the meal off. GREAT JOB!!!"
Dined on 5/30/2014
"Ask the sushi chef to make you a special roll. Their standard rolls are phenomenal too."
Dined on 5/24/2014
"Great service, outstanding food quality. We ordered a bottle of cabernet sauvignon from 1990, we got surprised by the moderate price. Everything went perfect. we will recommend this restaurant to everyone."
Dined on 5/22/2014
"Fine atmosphere and service. The food was creative in design, taste, and presentation, but the portions were small."
Dined on 5/16/2014
"I just had a tostado salad and it was not much like any tostado salad I had before. The bread on the table was very good. The server was excellent in monitoring our needs, including some allergies and modifications of the menu. I do think a weakness is an absence of someone at the entrance for rather long periods of time so your arrive to no one present in the bar area. The valet parking is a huge factor for me."
Dined on 5/15/2014
"our party had a variety of people , from grandpa to the young grandson. We appreciate to have been seated in a private area where we were able to enjoy our conversation with no noises around."
Dined on 5/3/2014
"Great menu, great food, great service, easy to get into. The only reason I can see behind why it is not as busy as the chef's other restaurants is the atmosphere is a bit sterile/institutional. Very clean and pretty, but not inspiring in the least. But - easy parking and food and service rival anywhere in town."
Dined on 4/5/2014
"This was our first time dining at Table 45 and my husband and I enjoyed the experience. The service was excellent. The unique menu offers selections for all types of tastes. The food was beautifully presented and, more importantly, was delicious. We will definitely return."

"Over priced for nothing special food. Didn't realize it was part of a hotel beforehand otherwise we would not have gone here."
Dined on 3/20/2014
"Made reservation based on the Visit to Eataly March special. Was surprised to find a basically Japanese themed menu. The Visit to Eataly started with breads and olives, then immediately a meat and cheese platter. All very good. Main courses followed with a forgettable pasta, Sunday Sauce, delicious Risotto and one piece of chicken and fish per diner. The fish was just ok and the chicken was marginal. Final course was dessert with very good apple fritters, tasty tiramisu and tasteless mini-cannolis Overall, lots of food but nothing overly spectacular. Wait staff was good, but at $55/person (not including wine), we will look elsewhere next time."
Dined on 3/8/2014
"Service was attentive yet not overbearing. Appetizers to entree were served well spaced out yet entrees were served at the perfect temperature for dining. Presentation to taste were impecabble. Reasonably priced for quality of service, presenation and taste. Had to leave for orchestra and missed desert; I'll be back."

"My husband and I enjoyed a very nice dinner while we were staying at the Intercontinental Hotel the night before his knee surgery early Monday morning. Everything was lovely, food was excellent although just a bit pricey for a Sunday night, and the restaurant itself was very clean and attractive. The scallops entree was delicious. Breads and olive oil very good. Wonderful hostess and server. There could have been a few more small plates and salads. The only thing we noticed on a negative note was how cold it was in the dining room. Many other guests complained of the same thing. We will come back on a weekend night not related to the Cleveland Clinic and bring friends."

"The Sunday Pasta was excellent! Tuna tartar was extremely salty."
Dined on 2/15/2014
"We were seated at our reservation time, but the service was slow. Not romantic slow, but "we'll get to you when we can" slow. Slow with water and refills. Slow with bread and taking our order. The food was very good, but I have had similar at a more reasonable price. Overall, average."
Dined on 2/15/2014
"Table 45 has a beautiful scenery. Great for a date night or special occasion. would have like to see more variety on the menu. Our server was very hospitable. The overall service was a little slow we had to wait a while for our main course, while the couple next to us received their food same dish before us and we were there and ordered first. I still would recommend this restaurant it was a nice restaurant beautiful!! love the chicken 2 ways."

"I went to Table 45 for valentines day, excited to have a great dinner and expect for my excellent company, it was a very disappointing experience to say the least. The service was horrible. I had a caesar salad which the dressing had way to much anchovy taste to it. The waitress asked if I wanted fresh ground black pepper on it, I said no thanks, and the didn't even pay attention as she was already grinding away pepper. My boyfriend and I had the scallops which were way over cooked, fishy tasting and rubbery. The asparagus served with it was charcoaled, burnt to a crisp. Not a single person, neither the waitress or hostess asked how everything was. No management was even visible. Really ruined my desire to try and Zack Bruell restaurant too"
Dined on 2/14/2014
"The wait staff were excellent, professional, prompt and friendly, and we liked the inviting atmosphere. My husband ordered the lamb, which he said was quite good though not outstanding. As a vegetarian-ish, I avoid most meats and fishes, so the menu was rather limited. I opted against the one true vegetarian main course -- a stuffed tomato -- because I've had so many lousy tomatoes at restaurants over the last few years and didn't want to risk one again! There were a few tasty-sounding salads, however, and I chose the tostado salad, which was pretty good, though I couldn't taste any of the advertised cilantro in it, which would have made the salad so much more interesting. The dressing was light and pleasant. Nice wine selection."

"Valentines day is always tough---crowded, with service that doesnt seem to appreciate it is a special night. The restaurant gave each lady a nice red rose on coming in . That was a high point. The table was not great, stuck next to a service island with a lot of noisy distracting activity with clanking silverware, restocking plates, comings and goings. . My request for another table was rebuffed, though it appeared there were other options. The service was lackluster, and inattentive. Fortunately, the food was very good. Th house salad was fine, the strip steak, though oddly configured, was very good. My companion had some sushi and a salad herself. She said it was very good. The tapioca dessert was excellent."

"We are a young "senior" couple who invited friends to join us for a Valentine's Day dinner before a Severance Hall concert. The restaurant turned out to be a wonderful choice. The ladies were met with beautiful long-stemmed red roses. We were give TWO menus, one special Valentine's Day menu and the regular menu along with an extensive wine list. We ordered from the regular menu and had a fabulous dinner and excellent wine. The desserts were scrumptious as well. The waiter was very attentive and helpful in a non-invasive way. We couldn't have made a better choice!"

"My wife and I had an early dinner on Valentine's Day at Table 45. The staff was very friendly and attentive. We both ate off the four course special menu and had the wine pairing. I had the fillet which was cooked perfectly and my wife had the fish special which was excellent. Overall, a great experience for our first time at the restaurant. We would definitely come back."

"We were greated at the door with a Happy Anniversary and had exceptional service throughout the meal. When it came to the food it was ok. The appetizer was good, but the salad and the main meal was bland and did not look very appetizing. The Ambience was too bright for my taste. I felt like I was eating in a cafeteria. It was truly a disappointment since I have enjoyed its sister restaurants. I should have gone to L'Albartross."
Dined on 2/12/2014
"What penalizes Table 45 is that it is inside the Cleveland Clinic's Inter-Continental Hotel and as such not a easy place to get to. While you can valet the car it is not as appealing as just parking and going in. The other handicap is that even when you get into a hotel lobby it is not evident where this Zack Bruell gem is. As a whole, the menu is vibrant, eclectic, pan-Asian pan American (if there is such a word) and while I have no idea how the other parts of the menu worked but the tofu cakes with pasta and the romaine I had for lunch were divine."
Dined on 2/4/2014
"A great restaurant in a less than inviting location. Great drinks were tendered (best dirty martini in a long while) and the service was friendly and responsive. Potato-leek soup and lemon-vinaigrette salad to start were tasty, but nothing terrific. The main dishes were consumed in less than five minutes, not because of size, but due to deliciousness: bouillabaisse and beef roast. After such a stuffing our desserts were difficult to finish (goat cheese cheesecake and chocolate mousse). The restaurant week wine pairings were also incredibly affordable and tasty!"
Dined on 1/25/2014
"We were given the very back booth for a group of 6 for lunch. It was a wonderful location, it was like we were having a private meeting! The only problem is it took at least 10 minutes before someone came back to wait on us and give us menus. After that, the service was great and the food was excellent!"
