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

The experience of Morton’s is always amazing. The service is impeccable and the food is top tier. The only true complaint I have about Morton’s is their marked up wine prices. We bought a bottle of wine for 50 dollars but upon looking it up, the same bottle is only 10-13 dollars as your retail stores. I’m pretty sure you can bring your own wine and champagne with a preapproval from the restaurant- That is what I recommend. Overall, great experience every time.

What an amazing Valentines Day dinner. Chief Lee and his staff are amazing. The servers were VERY attentive. And this is on one of their busiest days of the year. Exceeded our expectations. When you are paying top end price for food and are also receiving top end service and top end food that is exactly what you want. Well done Goma! See you soon!

Best steak and king crab! Oysters were delicious! Christopher was an awesome server! Manager amazing as well, checking on us to make sure everything was above par. Overall amazing, thank you Rocco and staff!

We had a fantastic experience at Acqua Di Dea! The ambiance was modern and inviting, setting the perfect tone for our night. We opted for the Valentine’s Day tasting menu, and every course was artfully presented and absolutely delicious. Our server was incredibly knowledgeable, explaining each dish in detail and making spot-on wine recommendations. From start to finish, it was an unforgettable dining experience—we can’t wait to return!

It was Valentine’s Day, so we knew it would be crazy busy. We should have requested an indoor table, the covered outdoor area was still chilly and way too packed. Our waitress was very friendly. She forgot my wine, but the experience was still very enjoyable. The food was absolutely amazing! It was pricey, but we knew that going in.
