"We went here for a friends birthday dinner last night and it was wonderful! I expected the food to be delicious and it definitely was! I was pleasantly surprised with all of the staff. We were greeted immediately and although we had to wait a few short minutes to be seated the hostess actually chatted with us and made us feel very welcome. When we were taken to our table a birthday card was hand delivered to my friend; a nice little touch to make things a little more personal. Sean was our server and Caiden was helping him out and they were both very professional but made us feel comfortable enough to just be ourselves at the same time. That’s hard to find at fine dining but when you do it’s definitely somewhere you want to keep coming back to! When it came to the service the cherry on top was John (one of the managers) stopping to wish a happy birthday to our table too. It was a Tuesday evening but the restaurant was still buzzing with guests and a few large parties. Being that we were just a table of three I was not expecting that but it was so appreciated and made us feel like more than a bottom line but actual guests. We had appetizers, a few different cuts of steak, the blt wedge salad and a delicious salted caramel gelato atop the caramel cake instead of the usual vanilla. Sean was spot on with that suggestion it was divine! Everything was absolutely perfect I couldn’t have asked for a better night to celebrate my dear friend. We cannot wait to dine here again! I want to add I never leave reviews and I travel for business and pleasure on a monthly basis but Ocean 44 exceeded my expectations!"

"I recently had a late lunch at the Paladar Latin Kitchen Rum Bar at Chagrin Boulevard in Woodmere, Ohio. Paladar is located in the Eton Mall on the north side of Chagrin Boulevard. There are many free parking spaces at Eton Mall. However, there is a single bank between Chagrin Boulevard and Paladar Latin Kitchen. There are not many parking spaces right in front of Paladar Latin Kitchen. My waitress was V (Valencia H., who is very friendly and helpful. She needed time to help me choose lunch in the menu. I enjoyed drinking the crispy shrimp tacos and one side of Chipotle Black Bean soup with an unsweetened iced tea. The tacos have pineapple salsa, picked jalapeños and garlic pasilla aioli and the soup has chips of lime crema, scalions and clantro. Lunch came with two corn-flower mixes that are soft and chewing. The tacos have an excellent taste depth. The taste has different complementary textures and a range of flavors. YUMMY! The soup was also hearty and delicious. The decor has a Latin feeling with a bar and a large amount of adjacent hi-top tables. For warmer weather months there is a large outdoor seating area. There are also two more dining areas in Paladar Latin Kitchen. The restaurant is clean. Since Covid 19 restrictions are relaxed, some of the employees do not wear face masks others. A hand sanitation dispenser is located near the entrance. Reservations can be made on OpenTable. I returned two weeks after my last visit to Paladar Latin Kitchen to enjoy another great meal. This time I sat in another dining area not the bar dining area. I sat next to a window, a great place where people look past. I had a combination lunch offer. The combo was the PALADAR BURGER of all natural ground beef (a mixture of brisket, short ribs and fodder with Swiss cheese, avocado slices, crispy roasted red onion rings and salad held on a bunny by a spit with a pimple disc and a dug green olives and the CHIPOTLE BLACK BEAN SOUPetten Crema, Skalken and Zilan. I ordered a page of the COCONUT MANGO RICE. I enjoyed an unsweetened iced tea for my drink. Through the presentation and taste of the food you know that the kitchen staff is talented and proud of what they send out from their kitchen. I ordered the PALADAR BURGER medium. Every bite was delicious. The burger was great as he came from the kitchen, he didn't need any extra spices or spices. The soup is hearty and very tasty. I'm so happy I ordered the rice. Nicely cooked with a refreshing taste to add the burger and the soup. Very pleasantly good tasting dinner in a relaxing, comfortable environment. The service is good. The dining area is nice and clean. The tables are deleted and quickly after leaving the table. The man's washroom is clean. The washrooms are located on a long L-shaped corridor. I'm looking forward to my next visit to the Paladar Latin Kitchen Rum Bar."
