Best Seafood Restaurants in Downtown Cleveland / Playhouse Square

Birthday for a friend, our waiter Chris delivered impeccable service and was quite knowledgeable about not only the food but the wines. Fabulous evening in every way! Delmonico steak, steak Oscar and Moody Blues were our choices, all perfect!

Everything was amazing!! Our server Jayonna was great!! We got a shrimp cocktail app Then each had steaks and the Gouda bacon potatoes and creamed spinach and it was perfect! Numerous staff members came to our table to ask how everything was and if we needed anything which was also nice! Overall excellent experience for my birthday dinner! Best meal I’ve had in awhile!! Highly recommend

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.

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!

It was a bit slow to get our order and food in but otherwise a great dinner. We will be back
