Nemo Grille

This place truly is a gem. Besides the fantastic service… every waiter or waitress we’ve ever had is mature, intelligent, and knowledgeable. the food is great! The shrimp and grits are so good I can barely describe them. The hummus is great as well. Fantastic place all around.

Overpriced good old boys club for baby boomers. The place has a decent menu with daily specials. It took our food 90 minutes from order to table. Larger groups were served before our table of two. Waitress kept covering for kitchen staff with plausible excuses (burned our appetizer and the kitchen «not talking to us»). For a meal over $ 100 for two people and no alcohol this is really atrocious. Waitress took off the price of the cheapest entrée. Either the kitchen is in trouble or the management is, either way there was nothing special about this place.

Went to Nemo Grille and wasn’t impressed compared to the cost $$$. Had seared Auhi-​tuna app which was a bit fishy. Lobster bisque was more sherry cream then lobster which wasn’t real great at all. The staff was nice but not overly helpful. They seemed to busy and under staffed.

This place is on the higher priced scale, but it is fine dining and for a special evenibg you will not be disappointed. The food is exceptional the staff is friendly and accommodating. Your sure to find something on their menu to suit you. I’m a vegetarian and they were happy to substitute for me. Love this place and would certainly go back and recommend.

Nemo is one of my favorite places in Cleveland. The patio anytime of year is so charming. The food is always to die for. Service is A+, and half price bottles of wine on Sunday’s! It’s my annual birthday tradition!

Gluten free friendly and very accommodating:) we have dined here several times and have even done take out as it is close to our house… They prepare a nice meal and we like the ambience as well!

Just came back from one of the most amazing meals I’ve had since I moved to Cleveland (it’s been 2 years). I had a sirloin and my date had the sea bass with these ricotta truffle noodles which were to die for.
Our server, Lynn, was phenomenal. Super knowledgable on the menu and an all around great server. Always had our water glasses filled and as soon as the food was gone, so were the plates! I HIGHLY recommend this place and ask for Lynn when you go in! You won’t be disappointed!

Bruschetta appetizer was very good. My steak was only warm. My veggies wer cold. My potatoes were so cold they would not melt the seasoned butter on top of them. It was like they just came out of the fridge. The service left much to be desired too. Our waitress showed up only to take our orders, drop off our food and bring the bill. I expected much much more for the price. We wont be going back.

Enjoyable dining experience with one big other…
Wife researched a place close to her parents to have our low key anniversary dinner. We chose to sit at the bar have drinks and apps.
Shrimp & Gritts great/​Fish Tacos excellent/​Lobster Flatbread… OK.
After watching the bartender give a free drink (translation the bottom of a bottle of wine) to a lady we were conversing with on the occasion of her birthday and then trying to get the other lady to buy another glass to match it… we were on guard. He berated the handing of the free glass from one to the other, when it was clear the patron was somewhat concerned about driving. We ultimately mentioned our anniversary in the context of the birthday mode, everyone at the bar congratulated us but the bartender. He overtly said he didn’t care about anniversaries. Then attempted to pad the bill in the most tacky low class, chain restaurant way with throwing the desert plate in front of us and then suggesting what we would pick.
4 plus stars downgraded or the service.

Phenomenal restaurant with great staff and amazing food. We are lucky to have such a great place locally. Best bar tenders in avon. Great bar and dinner menus. Specials are a must. We are literally here weekly, if not twice a week. I’m a total foodie and this is the place to be.

Wow… Love the bar, great food. Quaint and comfortable. Great service. Loved it! Will definitely go back. Great place to go to and grab an app at the bar

Fantastic from start to finish. The environment is slightly cramped, but cozy and romantic enough to make up for it. My group ordered duck, sea bass, and veal which were all delicious. All of our meats were cooked perfectly and the flavors of the garnishes and sides all blended very well. The presentation of all the meals were extravagant as well. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to go on a very nice date or if you just want to have an awesome meal on an average night. The hours are a little different though. They open at 5pm every day, so dinner only. Go check it out!

Found this gem through Unilocal.Lovely building. Fantastic food. Bonus — all bottles wine half price in Sundays and the wine list is excellent. My husband had a perfectly cooked medium rare steak with lovely traditional shallot sauce. I had gnocchi with wild mushrooms (app) which was amazing! Margherita flatbread very good. I will surely stop here next time I am in Cleveland.

This is our absolute favorite place to eat in the area. Best steaks anywhere, and the lobster bisque is outstanding. The service is excellent, and all the employees work together as a team. Excellent service every time we have been.
Even the coffee is great. What a refreshing change it is to find a place that cares about the food they offer and certainly cares about their customers. Excellent ++++

Fairly straightforward American steakhouse fare (chops, familiar seafood, nice salads) executed very well. You’re not likely to find any unusual cuts or terribly daring dishes, but everything is really good. It’s just geared toward the suburban set, who are justifiably loyal. Service is prompt and competent. The atmosphere in an old house is cozy, but if it were up to me I’d turn the music down a notch or two and boost the lighting so that you can read a menu without the aid of a smartphone. That aside, you’re quite certain to have a good meal here.

i really want to love nemos. like really want to. however, i just think it is average. the restaurant itself is set in an old colonial style home. rooms/​seating is small. bar is cute but again, very small. i did see a few patrons ordering the flatbread pizzas at the bar. i can not see myself going here for just ‘bar’ food. i might sit at the bar if i was waiting for a table, but the bar area is tiny.
food: so-​so. i expected over the top amazing seafood but it did not wow me. i feel that when you are paying upwards of 20.00 for a dinner, you should have something good to rave about. with all that being said, i do not think i would be running back here any time soon.

What a cool little neighborhood gem! I moved out to Avon some time ago and saw this place. From looking at their menu they are very much a gourmet establishment. Prices a little steep but its worth it.
The place is an old house with European décor, plaster walls, etc… It is cool but VERY cramped. Just don’t have any weird conversations because everyone will be able to hear you.
We started with the lobster flatbread. It was excellent. It had a truffle honey glaze so expect the sweetness cause it will be there. For the entrée I had the chicken marsala. I am a marsala man and I can say that this was one of the best! Excellent presentation and the right amount of sauce. The dish was perfect and the asparagus side, while expected, was also perfectly cooked.
I really enjoyed the meal, the cramped atmosphere even, and the service. It was a great night and I will be coming back as soon as I can stomach another bill. Come ready to fork out some dough but it is worth every penny.

Nemo Grill to me is just average. They do have a very nice wine list though.
I think that Nemo Grill is about 25% overpriced. If they were just a little less expensive then it would really be worth it for the meal that we are given.

Delish!
The unassuming building truly houses a restaurant with skilled chefs, exceptional staff, and good food. We stopped by after a long day, only 20 minutes before their kitchen «closed» (we called ahead to ask if we would be «those people» and they happily responded that we should definitely still stop by). We sat at the bar, where many others were enjoying wine and appetizers. The bartender was lovely, one of the best servers I’ve experienced. We ordered two glasses of wine (somewhat pricey at 13 a glass, but we knew what we were paying and were not surprised when our bill came), and a calamari to start. The calamari (9.5) was a bit on the sweet side, but it was cooked very well.
For dinner we got a grilled chicken sandwich (10), with a side of rosemary garlic fries, and the veal (26). We asked our server if any dairy products were in the veal meal, and she said no, but when the the plate arrived, there was milk in the mashed potatoes. She quickly got us a side of sweet potato fries as a substitution, and was apologetic. The sandwich, and veal were fantastic… both of the fries were not (one was flimsy, wet, and undercooked; the other was incredibly spicy with seasoning that’s too intense). Our server noticed that we didn’t eat our fries, asked about it, and said she would tell the kitchen for the future (even though we told her the rest of our meal was great and we weren’t upset). We also ordered a piece of coconut cake (8.5) and it was wonderful — definitely ask about their desserts (the women next to us RAVED about the smores crème brûlée).
Was our food perfect? No. But were we happy? Definitely. The great service made up for the tiny bumps in the meal. Loved it. Will definitely return!
Full disclosure — we used a groupon for the meal (paid $ 25 for a $ 50 gift certificate), but we would definitely pay «full price».

We stopped into Nemo Grille on a whim, just to see what it was all about.
It was ok… Staff was friendly and not overly attentive but, available when needed. Menu had plenty to offer but, even though our meals were good, we didn’t feel like they were impressive.
We will definitly give Nemo Grille one more chance before writting it off.
