    We actually ate from the Hilarities menu, but wow the food was great. The prime rib sandwich was tender, the roll had a good texture. I'm a huge horseradish sauce fan and I can't say I didn't enjoy what came with our sandwich. The herbed fries were stupendous crisp and tasty. We'll be back again❤️❤️

    Service was disappointing along with undercooked pork chop. Had to continue to remind server what we had ordered. Salads and Meal were delayed and wondered if server was the reason.

    Everyone was so nice & friendly. Host/greeter was great and made me feel welcomed and comfortable from the start of my solo adventure out. My server was excellent and was so patient with my questions.. The center cut filet mignon was as tender as can be imagined. I'm really glad I chose to eat here before the comedy show. It was not only convenient, it was an amazing meal with perfect customer service.

    I’ve been coming here since 2004 when W4th was still a dirt road with shuttered windows everywhere except PWAF. I joked who would ever want to live in Downtown Cleveland and exactly 3 years almost to the day I bought a condo at Pointe at Gateway ironically. The owner, Nick, works tirelessly to keep it one of the top destinations in downtown CLE. Tonight he stopped and asked how our service was multiple time and when he found out it was my daughters 5th birthday he instantly rushed to get her a hot fudge Sunday. The amount of hands on spent to keep the place impeccable and roll with the changes like during Covid to keep comedy alive in Cleveland is commendable and impressive!

    It’s definitely not your average ordinary every day restaurant is definitely something to do on a special occasion, but it was nice I enjoyed myself, and so did my lady which was the most important part. We ended up staying for a show at Hilarities downstairs as well, which was great.

    Service needs some help. Messed up drink order and then the checks too. Don’t ask if we want separate checks if you can’t handle it. Our server was sub par at best. Food was spectacular, having the manager/owner walking around and engaging with the tables was nice. Maybe we should have placed orders with him?

    We went to dine before attending a show at Hilarities. We were seated immediately - even before we told the hostess we had a reservation. The wait staff was attentive. Our group of four all agreed that the meals we chose were excellent. We will definitely be going back

    Food was very poor . Ordered cheeseburger medium well.. it came out burned . Husbands jerk chicken pizza was so bad. You could buy a better product from Costco freezer section. Margarita was awful.. even my husband wouldn’t drink it😂. Service was great though, not her fault that the food was bad. Ambiance is really cute outside.

    We got a tour of the downstairs by the manager. In addition to a great restaurant, this venue houses a comedy club, a cabaret theatre, and a groovy martini bar (not currently open). And, oh yeah, the rotisserie chicken was fantastic! Great drinks, fun waitress, wonderful experience!

    Starting at the Host on through to a show, the staff was helpful and amazing. They were always available for a question or even showing that they too enjoyed being there. We sat outside on a lovely evening and the staff here was more enjoyable than the staff at other locations in the area. Thank you for making a special night even more amazing.
