We went out for an anniversary dinner here and were seated right next to the area where the waiters and waitresses gather to look at table numbers and ring up checks. The entire dinner didn’t feel very private as we were trying to talk without someone getting so close and interrupting. My boyfriend was getting butts in his face the whole dinner. Also, our waiter didn’t come by very often to get anything we needed. We waited long enough at the beginning to have our entire orders ready by the time he came around, and at the end of our meal we watched him stand at the bar for a long time before coming by where we had to ask for the check. The food was delicious and I always enjoy coming here, but it felt a little bit less than perfect this time, especially for our anniversary. I always tip over 20% when I go out to eat (and I did this time, too) but it felt a little silly to give our waiter who we barely saw our entire meal the $20 tip. I’ll definitely be back, but I just wanted to share my disappointment this time around.

The menu is much smaller, so not a lot of options. I feel It’s more of a drinks and appetizer restaurant now. Out of several seafood options and po boy was too hard to eat. Sadly- I don’t believe we will be going back there again.
Burntwood Tavern - Cuyahoga FallsResponded on February 20, 2023Thank you for the feedback! It is a smaller menu that before covid, however, we do offer 12 different entree sandwiches and salads, as well as 7 feature entrees. For the next six weeks during Lent, we will also offer a Shrimp Scampi and Trout Piccata every Friday. Our menu continues to change and evolve with every season, with limited time specials for Mardi Gras, Lent, and St. Patricks Day coming up!

Our server, Elaine, was great! In this app I requested a table with a view of the river as we were wanting to impress our guest with the lovely view at Burntwood. We were put by a wall with no view - the hostess did offer to move us, but we stayed where we were. It would be nice if the special notes were noticed ahead of time and honored without a second request. Also, our food took a long time to come out. Our server kept us posted, but it really took too long. The food was good with the exception of the seafood gumbo which came out too cool at first. The server took it back and brought out a hot bowl of chowder and mentioned that the chef said the shrimp are served cold on in the gumbo. It was the whole gumbo, broth and all, that was not warm enough. But it was sent back out hot and that solved the problem. The rest of the food was very good and we had a nice time with our guest. I'm sure we'll return. We eat at Burntwood from time to time.

Menu was limited. No bread or salad came with dinner. Dinner was to celebrate a birthday. When I made the reservation on OpenTable, I asked that a dessert be delivered at the end of the meal to the birthday person. They never did that, so I saw the waiter up in the bar area so I left the table and went up to him and reminded him that I had requested a dessert be delivered to the birthday person. A few minutes later, the waiter came back to the table and explained that per his manager they don’t do that anymore. Well, they had a dessert menu so clearly they have desserts. I was obviously going to pay for the dessert I just wanted one brought to the birthday person to recognize their birthday, which was actually the same day. It was rather embarrassing when the waiter stood there at the table and explained that they don’t do birthday desserts anymore. That was kind of embarrassing, because it was supposed to be a surprise. At the end of the dinner when the waiter brought the bill I was surprised to see the bill was just a total amount. No breakdown of the bill. I had no idea what all I was paying for. So I gave the bill back to him and told him I wanted to see a breakdown of what I was paying for not just a total dollar amount on a piece of paper. The others who were sitting at the table also got a bill that just had a total dollar amount on it. So they sent theirs back also. All in all I was disappointed with the dining experience from the limited menu offerings to the fact that they couldn’t bring a slice of cake or a bowl of ice cream over to the birthday person, as well as giving people bills with nothing more than a total dollar amount on them.

We like Burntwood Tavern. However, the food has been underwhelming the last two times we have been. The steak frites were bland and portly delivered with chewy onions on top. I left most of it on my plate. The wait staff is professional and helpful. The ambiance is fine.

We were there on New Years eve. Service was Excellent. I was disappointed in my chicken marsala. Chicken was just ok, but VERY skimpy portions of the potatoes and vegetables. The vegetables were very hard, either overcooked or not cooked enough. Also, no bread or salad included??? Even Texas Roadhouse has bread!

Went here for New Years Eve dinner and had a good time. We went early before it got too crowded. When we were leaving the restaurant was extremely crowded and it was getting hard to hear each other talk. Overall we enjoyed it. Not my favorite Burntwood - sorry! The one in Rocky River is still my favorite

I made a reservation online for 5:00pm. After being seated and getting our cocktails, we found out that we needed to order right away because the kitchen was supposed to CLOSE AT 5:00PM! I felt so sorry for our gracious server, who had to be the “bearer of bad news” to quite a few tables. We decided to have a quick appetizer and found another place to go for dinner. I’m in the restaurant business and used to be the Open Table “coordinator,” for lack of a better term. It’s quite easy to manipulate it, so you could have had the last reservation available 30-45 minutes before the kitchen wanted to close. I love Burntwood Tavern and hope someone reads this, for future days with modified hours. Thank you, Cindy Scafaro

We have been to this establishment many times for different occasions. This is the second time the service was subpar. We felt rushed because they were going to bring the salad with the main meal. Meals were not hot just warm. The price of the meal was not worth giving the restaurant a second chance. We have always looked forward to our visit. We do not expect to be back.

We had a booth and the wall next to us was filthy. Splattered food everywhere. My husband told the server twice that he would like soup, it never arrived. He had to ask for a cup basically as our meal arrived. We had chicken and waffles and the chicken had zero flavor. While mine was at least tender, my husbands was not and he almost couldn’t cut it with a knife. Mid experience at best.

I enjoy the ambiance by the river and the Happy Hour drinks and appetizers. My feedback from my table is less heat in so many of the menu items. Or make the heat optional. The calamari has heat in the breading. Even the fish and chip tartar sauce comes with jalapeño! Settled on the Thai chicken. Disappointed in the Tater Tots, heavily breaded mashed potatoes. What happened to light and crispy?
