Restaurants near A Christmas Story House

What a very enjoyable experience we had. My sister and brother-in-law had just arrived this afternoon from Florida and we were searching places for lunch. I had heard about Hecks, but had never been. So we decided to try Hecks … we will be back.  Our server was prompt and very knowledgeable. Her recommendations were spot on, our food was delicious! The Hecks Martini was perfect. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously. What a wonderful beginning to a holiday spent with family.

The new appetizer sampler is phenomenal and a wonderful way for new guests to sample the most delicious appetizers on the menu. The new cocktail and mules, as well as several new entrees, were added to the menu 2 days before our arrival, and all of them were incredible. Their bourbon cart is a must try! None of us had room for dessert, but that just means that we will have to go back very soon to try them! Fahrenheit is THE BEST!!!

First trip back since the name change, we thought it was outstanding. The shrimp and scallop and calamari appetizers were all fresh and delicious sauces. I had the grouper topped with crab special, the grouper was fresh and a generous portion. The sauce again was delicious. The fruit de mar pasta dish had plenty of seafood and a nice variety , again they nailed the sauce. The lobster ravioli was fantastic, again generous portion and delicious sauce. Finished off with a creme brulee we shared …. Perfect. Service was also very good . We will be back soon.

Excellent service and fantastic food. Always looking for upscale Italian restaurants that are truly high quality. We will be back the next trip to Cleveland. Thank you for a great meal

Professional restauranters are running this restaurant. This is old school service. Front end staff is pleasant and knowledgeable. Managers are attentive. Bartender is a pro. Our apps (we had 4 I'm embarrassed to admit) were excellent. The crab app and the mushroom gnocchi app (available in bar) were outstanding. My entre (grouper) was very salty but I will give that a pass because everything else was excellent. If you are seeking an old school fine dining experience with knowledgeable and personable wait staff in Cleveland, it is basically down to Johnny's on Fulton and Blue Point. I put this place on a level with several first rate restaurants in Manhattan and Washington D.C.
