Tips from locals
A good spot after House of Blues or a sport game is a restaurant on E. 4th St by Cleveland's most celebrated chef, Michael Simon. "Cool, bi-level, industrial-chic BBQ spot with communal tables & a long bar with many bourbons."
This BBQ though! Get there early. They don't accept reservations and are ALWAYS busy. Grab a cocktail at the bar while you wait for your table. It's worth it!
Michael Symon's "Cleveland" style BBQ, which really means Mike Symon's style BBQ. It's really, really good. While Lola is fantastic fine dining, Mabel's is my favorite Symon restaurant.
