    This was the 2nd time at Oliva and it was just as stunning as the 1st time. I cannot say enough about how good the food was last night. The steaks are top notch as are their salads. Fantastic dinner spot!

    Casa la Luna (formerly Luca) has always been our go-to restaurant for special occasions and has never been disappointed. This dinner was no exception. The food, pork osso buco and halibut were cooked to perfection. The server was attentive, knowledgeable, and personable. We were quite taken back by the attitude of the two women hostesses upon arrival. Definitely not reflection of the warm and cheerful greeting as on past occasions. We arrived about 20-25 minutes ahead of our reservation with the thought of having a cocktail before dinner as there was several open seats at the bar. When informing the hostesses of our desire to do so, we received a cold and distasteful response, for reasons unknown. Fortunately, the rest of the evening was truly enjoyable!

    We had lunch here after touring CWRU. I had grilled cheese with brie, pears and blackberries. It was very good. My daughter had a cheeseburger and she loved it!
