Happy Hour experience — middle of the pack on the star ratings. Nothing too bad, but not much made me want to order it again. The Buffalo Chicken dip was good, cheesy, nice chicken chunks and a little bit of a kick. It was supposed to come with house made tortilla chips, but instead they were more like homemade pita chips, which was not a bad thing. All of the apps we ordered were all $ 6 each. Others that we tried were the lobster mac n cheese bites, panko crusted shrimp and a spicy chicken wrap. Skip the flavorless gribiche sauce with the shrimp and ask for cocktail sauce which is much a tastier choice. There was nothing spicy about the spicy chicken wrap and the tzatziki was flavorless. I did let the server know and he agreed. The margarita earned a «It is just okay» comment, but my happy hour Bridlewood Pinot Noir was a hit at $ 4 a glass. On a positive note the house pickled vegetables served with the dishes were delicious and our favorite part of the night. Maybe they were having an off night for the other items? I have had good experiences at the other Rosewood Grill locations, so I am willing to give them another shot.

My wife and I joined a group of friends who dine out once a month. There were 32 of us in total. We were seated in a private room that was somewhat small for the size of our group. We were assigned two waitpersons and they were excellent! My wife and I each ordered a glass of wine. The pour was below average and as such prevented me from awarding a 5 star rating. My wife had the chicken tortilla soup and I had the lobster bisque soup. The lobster bisque was excellent. My wife was not impressed with her soup. I ordered the lobster and pasta(ziti in a white, light cream sauce) and my wife ordered the salmon. We both enjoyed our meal very much. The total for the meal was $ 75, which in our opinion, was reasonable given the quality of food and service. The ribs, sirloin steak and fish tacos were also big hits among our group.

This was a first time visit for us and we really liked the atmosphere. It was so cold outside and the warmth of the restaurant was very inviting. Our server was attentive, quick, and personable. I had the chicken tortilla soup which was just ok. Loads of chicken, but that was pretty much it. I ordered the salmon entrée which was served with mashed potatoes and julienne Veges. The salmon was fantastic. It was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. There were so many mashed potatoes I couldn’t eat them all. I also had a glass of Malbec which was fine, but a very small pour. The menu is a bit funky, with everything from flat breads and burgers to steak and lobster. One perk I forgot to mention is that all the food was served hot. I have a real issue with food sitting in kitchens, but that certainly wasn’t the issue here.

French Dip was great. It could have been a little bigger portion for the price, but it tasted great. Baked Potato side was gargantuan!

We went as a last minute idea so no reservations but we were seated fairly quickly. Bread was fantastic from Blackbird Bakery in Lakewood. We ordered the deviled eggs as an app and they were just«ok.» The presentation made them awkward to eat as the toast was very hard and the egg was tall sitting on top. My husband had the walleye(dry, flavorless and overcooked) while I had the pork chop(arrived rare, not medium as requested.) I sent it back and then after tasting it, the pork was unfortunately again, just«ok.» The very friendly waitress offered a brownie dessert from the kitchen when our check arrived as a goodwill gesture for under cooking the pork. Just finished the brownie with sauce at home, and it was inedible. We may try going here again to see if the just had an «off» night, but we won’t be in any hurry to do so.

Don’t waste your time. Pricey, menu is limited and no variations in it. Happened to be there when someone called to see if there was a wait time, and the lady said 30 minute wait… and there wasn’t anyone waiting??? Also, limited wine list(by the glass) they want you to buy by the bottle(expensive).

We had dinner at the Rosewood Grill when it opened and found the service and food to be very good. We enjoyed setting in the open air section of the restaurant and the outside fireplace was great. The menu offered lots of options and our server was attentive and made sure our drinks and food came as ordered.

I had lunch with a friend at Rosewood Grill in Westlake, Ohio during the week of March 6, 2016. We both had cheeseburgers with bacon and cheddar cheese. Each burger was accompanied by some outlandishly toothsome french fries, along with lettuce, tomato, raw onion slices and pickle slices. The burgers were cooked exactly as requested. Wow. Great burgers. The fries were so perfectly prepared that I ate them even after they cooled off, something I never, ever do. I think the fries must have been cooked in peanut oil to as they were almost as good cold as when they were piping hot. They have a soup special for each day of the week. The prices are moderate. The service was very, very good. The noise level was low to moderate.

We’ve been to the Strongsville location, but this was the first time at the Westlake location. First, this place does take call ahead so, if you want to go on a Saturday evening, learn from us and call ahead. I really like this place! The menu has a lot of options, something for everyone. By the time we got to the table, we were pretty hungry. So we ordered the tomato basil flatbread and the sushi shots. While they were being prepped, they brought some delicious bread and butter to the table. The flatbread and sushi shots were good! The sushi shots had tuna, avocado, and came in a crunchy shell. They tasted clean and fresh. The flatbread had a pesto on it which was very flavorful. The crust was thin but also soft. For dinner I got the tomato bisque and a side of sweet potato fries. Both were good but I actually enjoyed the apps more. My hubs got the veggie burger which was really soft but had a good mix of bbq sauce and mustard. Very large portion. I’m the end, I still really like Rosewood. The food is good and the service is good and the prices are decent. We’ll definitely be back to the Westlake location, but next time, we’ll call ahead.

This was our first time there. Our waitress. An older dark haired woman, was not friendly at all. It seemed as though we were bothering her every step of the process of our meal. She was pushy, rude, and lacked serious customer service skills. My Strip Steak($ 36.00), was cooked perfectly but it lacked flavor. The type of meat I thin needed a marinade or something else on it. The Calamari was good. This would have gotten at least 3 stars if the service was good. This was a waste of a $ 100.00 meal. We will not be returning.

We had a great experience at Rosewood Grill. The restaurant is situated near Crocker Park but across the street which makes the parking situation ideal. The restaurant itself is very clean with nice décor. We ate lunch with our son and the food was very well prepared and delicious. We had the Salmon, Trout, and the grilled chicken hummus wrap. Our son also had the lobster bisque which he enjoyed. Our server was named Alex and she did a very good job answer menu questions and describing the specials. Our water was always kept full and she checked back on us in timely fashion. We will go back to Rosewood Grill. Plan on going to a Happy Hour as we have heard good things.

We popped in for dinner at this great new place, owned by the same group that owns Cabin Club & Salmon Daves. This is located across the street from Crocker Park, in the old Applebee’s location. They did a great job making over the interior! The atmosphere was great, and our server was even better. Jen was funny, knowledgeable and was right there whenever we needed her. The food was tasty, but there were not a lot of options for us vegan types. The veggie burger tasted great, and came with a side salad. My husband enjoyed his filet, that was cooked perfectly to his liking. There’s a nice drink selection & an awesome happy hour. We’ll be back!

Food left something to be desired. We were a group of four and ordered the the specialty dish Lobster pasta, 2 chicken oriental teriyaki salads, and the baby back ribs. Then we ordered two appetizers, the calamari and rock shrimp. Appetizers first. The calamari was okay. It tasted like nothing special but the dipping sauce was good. The rock shrimp were so small one member of my party asked the waiter«where are the shrimp?» The shrimp were ¾ breading. My lobster pasta was very bland and I was trying to give it away. It was in a heavy cream sauce with spinach, lobster, and mushrooms but the bland sauce decimated all flavor. The salads were good but they were rationing dressing and both members of our party had to ask for more. I liked the flavor of the chicken which was probably even more so after trying to consume my flavorless lobster pasta. I tried a bite of the ribs and was underwhelmed too. They were very dry and the rub provided little flavor. The best part of the meal was the chocoholic dessert. It was actually very well sized and we all had a several bites from one. I will also commend the service. They were very attentive and it wasn’t their fault the food was failing. Now the worst part, It was almost $ 140 for 4 people without alcohol. For that price and food quality I’m taking my business elsewhere.

We love the rosewood in strongsville and were so excited to see one opened a mile from us in westlake!!! Great décor, great food! The cheesy potatoes that came with the steak were phenomenal!!! My sister said the flatbread was one of her favorite meals ever. Pleased with our experience at Rosewood :) very reasonably priced for the quality of food.

I really like what they did with the place. It’s very clean and trendy, their fireplace outside is really neat as well. Their menu is really nice as well. Their salmon salad was very delicious and refreshing, however I don’t understand the goldfish on it. Our server was very polite and made sure we were taken care of. I would definitely return.

I had dinner here on a weeknight and I was very impressed with the service, ambience, and food. I ordered the Mediterranean flatbread and it was very fresh and delicious. Service was comparable to that of a high end restaurant. Everyone in my group enjoyed what they ordered. They have a great selection of beer and wine on their menu. The fire pit outside looked incredible. Lots of parking available in front of the restaurant.

Sat at the bar on a Wednesday. Wasn’t crowded. Bar tenders were horrible. Had to ask for another drink since they were messing around. Appetizer took 30 min to come out and was average at best. Calamari tasted like oil hadn’t been changed in some time. After being served our salad I asked for a side of dressing because the salad had not been tossed well. 15 min later the bartender went back and had the second bartender bring it out. 1st and last time… ps, shouldn’t have to ask to have the Cavs game on either. You are in Cleveland ya goofs. Almost forgot the best part, the $ 15 salmon salad had goldfish crackers in it… On purpose. Assuming Cisco miss picked them and they decided to use it. Morons

Went to lunch on Monday for their first lunch with a friend. Service was great. I sat down and our server approached quickly with water and bread. The bread was tasty and warm with soft butter. I ordered the trio with a chicken sandwich, sausage/tortellini soup and wedge salad and everything was delicious. It was prompt and our server Adam was great. I will definitely be back.

First, I liked the food, it was quite good. The server on the other hand left a lot to be desired. He made us feel uncomfortable. He was not overtly rude but he was unapologetic for mistakes and acted like we were an inconvenience. A few examples. We came in with our three kids and they were pretty well behaved. We ordered chocolate milks for each at the cost of $ 2.50 a piece. Two of them were not drank because they didn’t like the taste. We were told that the happy hour specials did not begin until next week and according to other reviews this was not true. We had to ask for bread after salads were finished and wondered if we were not supposed to get any based on our meals, however every table who had different servers were given their servings. I asked for mayo with my burger and it was acknowledged. After waiting five minutes and watching our waiter serve every other table I decided Just to eat. I had also ordered a side of lobster mac for the table. When we were done eating the waiter mentioned he forgot to bring lobster mac and he would pack it up for a to-go. No apology again, and we were billed for it. My wife said something to the manager on her way out because she couldn’t wait to get out of there. I was waiting to pay and she approached me as I prepared to leave and asked for a synopsis in front of the server. Awkward! She stated please don’t give up on us. We won’t — but probably going carry out route until they work out their issues

This location of the Rosewood Grille opened October 1, and what a great addition to the Crocker Park area. It is in the old Applebee’s across from the shopping area so parking is not an issue. Went for Happy Hour and sat in the bar which was a large area, nicely appointed. Felt very homey. Drink prices for Happy Hour are a great deal – $ 4 martinis, and the Pepper Mule was excellent choice. Happy Hour prices are good until 6. There are several small plates available as well for $ 6. The buffalo chicken egg rolls and the duck wings were both very good. Another in our party got the ribs from the main menu and loved them. Food was great, atmosphere just as great and the staff were even greater. They were all very welcoming and genuinely interested in satisfying the customers. The only complaint, if any, is that the women’s bathroom has only two stalls so there was a line.
