At age the of 20, Chef Rafael moved with his wife to Cleveland, Ohio. His goal was to continue his Italian culinary skills which he acquired in the region of Verona, Italy.
Chef Rafael was introduced to the restaurant industry at a very young age. His grandmother was very well known for her home-cooked dishes. She loved having her grandson with her as she cooked meals as soon as he was able to walk. He was six years old when he first learned how to make homemade pasta and, by age 14, he was ready to embark on his own culinary journey. His first stop was Verona, Italy,which was the setting for Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The romantic and rich architectural heritage of Verona was matched by the great culinary venues of that city and Chef Rafael's experience and skills grew exponentially. Three years later, Chef Rafael traveled to Belgium and France where he then experienced cooking French cuisine as well.

    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.

    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.

Discover Cleveland West

Cleveland is home to many treats and wonders, but right against Lake Erie, you can find the neighborhood known as “Cleveland West.” Home to many waterfront opportunities, this is an excellent place to explore the Bavarian heritage that is pervasive throughout the city. There are numerous places to eat foods of every variety, but if you want the Cleveland experience, then you need to consider Polish and German eateries. Pierogi (delightful cheese-stuffed dumplings), corned beef and bratwurst sandwiches are specialties of the region. If you're looking for a more American touch, you can enjoy original pizza bagels and a range of beers that blend history and tradition with American innovation.
