Restaurants near Newton Avenue Historic District

We have been coming to this restaurant for the past 25+ years, probably more than a dozen visits, and we have always walked away raving about the quality of the food and service. Tonight was no exception. Everything we had from Tommy’s Tomato Salad to the fresh fish selection to the veal Parmesan and beyond was prepared perfectly and tasted delicious. A special treat is always having a conversation with the owner and executive chef, Terry Tarantino, who makes the rounds of the tables serving up his own version of Cacio d’Pepe. It would be a disappointment to miss him and his hat. Lucky for us, he was there to oversee the goings on, as usual. The Little Italy neighborhood location, too, is a delight. Take some time and walk around while you are there. Tip: opt for Little Italy valet parking or expect to walk some distance from whatever parking spot you can find nearby.

Adding Cordelia to the top of my favorite restaurants in Cleveland! The food was absolutely incredible, and I already can’t wait to go back. We tried 10 different dishes and shared everything around the table, which was the perfect way to experience the menu!

Always good food and good service. Love the sachetti al tartufo bianco!

Delightful! Every dish exceeded expectations. The chicken liver app special was perfectly cooked so the livers were firm but tender and very moist. The veal in the Saltimbocca was pounded VERY thin; I could cut it easily with my fork. Our server was cheerful, prompt and efficient. We would definitely dine there again!

What a delight to eat an early dinner with friends in the brasserie before a concert at Severance last night. A classic french bistro experience right in our own backyard. The food and drinks were top notch as was the service.
