Best Restaurants for Anniversaries in Downtown Cleveland / E. 4th Street

Was seated by the window a party of 5 for my son's birthdays. It was perfect. We had the calamari and crab cakes (wish they were a little bigger, but very good) Both my sons ordered the ribeye and enjoyed it very much. I went with Restaurant week and the lobster bisque was amazing. Walleye and lobster pasta were the other two meals. Both were enjoyed. I would highly recommend Pier W. Always a good dinner choice.

Amazing restaurant with thoughtful details and energy food was a 5 star! Great ambiance and can’t wait to tell all my family and friends!

Love the environment and service here. Our server was excellent; timely and attentive. Our meals (chicken entree and linguini w/clams) were delicious. We also had the calamari appy and the clam chowder. The calamari is the most unique and delicious of any anywhere; lightly breaded calamari, roasted cherry tomatoes, olives and mushrooms.....amazing! The chowder was light and full of clams...and flavor! Have to mention the great, crusty bread and tamponade that is brought early on. Gave a 'good' for value because even without drinks and dessert, the meal was over $100 for two which bumps it up to more of a special event dining.

Our visit to The Centro in Cleveland was nothing short of delightful! From the moment we stepped inside, we were captivated by the warm and glowing atmosphere and the kindness of the hosting staff. The venue is beautifully designed, integrating the past of the Cleveland Trust and the stylish decor of the present. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that all of our needs were met. They even gave us a personalized menu to acknowledge us celebrating our anniversary! The menu at The Centro is impressive and made with local ingredients. We enjoyed the crispy polenta cubes appetizer. We both ordered from the house specialty section of the menu. My husband ordered the braised short ribs and I ordered the chicken parmesan with homemade pasta. Every bite was a testament to the culinary skills of the team. The drink menu was equally impressive, showcasing a variety of inventive cocktails, wine, and beer. My husband ordered a spicy concoction that was on their drink special list and I had the Black Manhattan made with Basil Hayden dark rye whiskey. I wish we had saved room for dessert because the selection was delectable!

Dante never disappoints. The food and drinks are always amazing. The service as well. This is my go to when people are in from out of town. Shows off our incredible food scene in the CLE.
