    Food and drinks were excellent. Service was super fast even for a busy Saturday night. Room was slightly dark. I could see other people from other tables struggling to read their menus. Food was pricy but very fresh and delicious. I would definitely recommend Lago east bank to someone looking for a nice date spot/ special occasion dinner.

    The food was amazing except for the crabcakes (2 orders at the table) they were very fishy and unflavored. Our waiter JOSH was OUTSTANDING!! drinks were perfect. Ambience was great. It was a bit hard to read menus in the dark but we made do! Overall AMAZING PLACE AND FOOD! ☆☆☆

    Cool architecture. Friendly service. The food was good. Polenta very good, short ribs very good, Brussel sprouts very good. Salad fresh and very big. I was a disappointed in the entree that drew me there online. Lobster Gnocchi. Sounded awesome. It was just OK.

    When we went, it was for an anniversary. We are vegetarian, so options for higher quality dinning is a challenge but this place really showed up. The Vegan Wellington was fantastic, and the pasta was good. We were seated quickly (since I had a reservation which I recommend), but the traffic near the door was quite heavy, so it was noisy when larger groups were coming in. Obviously, simple things like asking for a table away from the door would have eliminated such issue. All in all, very memorable evening. We’ll probably be going back in the future. I would be prepared to spend over 100 dollars if you want a ‘full’ dinning experience. Well worth the money though.

    Lago East BankResponded on March 5, 2023Hi Annamarie, Thank you for the wonderful review and for choosing Lago for your anniversary celebration. We are so happy to hear you enjoyed all of the food and the overall experience. We look forward to having you back. Aubrey

    Lago is always a great time. Food is delicious, lobster gnocchi’s a must get & the short rib is very tasty and super lean. Fabio & Nicole are consistently present and genuinely kind, definitely a bonus seeing them. Our server, Leslie, was extremely patient with our party of 16 & smiled the entire time

    I am a HUGE fan of Lago East Bank- It's where I took my fiancé for our first date. While I love the updates inside, something's changed with the food. It's just not the same quality we were used too... Overall a great place and I am sure they're working on correcting this. Our server was so so kind and did a wonderful job. The food just needs stepped up a bit.

    Charge for bread?!?!? Wine not so good and EXPENSIVE

    Lago East BankResponded on February 13, 2023Hello. We appreciate your review. We have made a few changes to our menu, charging for bread being one of them, this one being with the hopes people will order it and it can benefit a local charity, Food Strong. Every order of bread placed gets a portion of the profit sent directly to the funding of this amazing organization that empowers children in underserved neighborhoods! If you can let us know what the wine was we can look in to why it may not have been great that night. Thank you!

    Our waitress was attentive. We had the meatballs for an app and they were amazing! My guy had the lasagna and it was big. It tasted great and had lots of cheese. I had the lobster gnocchi. It had a good amount of lobster and the cream sauce was soooooo good! The gnocchi was probably the best I’ve had. We had a great experience and didn’t feel rushed!

    Brunch, loud music for 10 AM. Menu is unique so we wanted to try. Unfortunately they didn’t have a “traditional” breakfast plate. We had a party of 6, mac n cheese had no flavor, meat was dry for the hash, the rest of the crowd was too nice to say anything about their choices, we didn’t mention to the place because we are not that type.

    Lago East BankResponded on January 23, 2023Hello. We are sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your brunch but are glad the creativity and uniqueness caught your eye. We always love the opportunity to fix the issue and prepare something you are satisfied with you before you leave so you leave happy! We do not list a traditional breakfast on our brunch menu but always offer it so we will use that comment to make sure our staff is letting guests know. We look forward to providing a better experience on your next visit.

    We have had many of the menu items that Lago offers. All are always fabulously delicious and we have always had a great meal and experience. It is a modern, urban setting in downtown Cleveland with friendly staff and servers. We would recommend dining here or even hanging out at the bar/lounge area.
