The Thanksgiving buffet was very good. Turkey, ham, roast beef, all the traditional sides, and a slew of desserts. The staff was friendly and welcoming. As a single traveler, I felt at home. Thank you to The Burnham for an outstanding meal and a great dining experience.

This was our first time at Pier W. We were seated at the Booth facing Lake Erie and downtown Cleveland. They said that’s the best table in the restaurant. Our waitress went above and beyond our expectations as she was always asking if we need anything and always making sure everything is ok. The meal exceeded our expectations as the meal was so good. You have to try the buckeye torte. Out of this world. We will definitely be back.

The new appetizer sampler is phenomenal and a wonderful way for new guests to sample the most delicious appetizers on the menu. The new cocktail and mules, as well as several new entrees, were added to the menu 2 days before our arrival, and all of them were incredible. Their bourbon cart is a must try! None of us had room for dessert, but that just means that we will have to go back very soon to try them! Fahrenheit is THE BEST!!!

Great location if you are seeing a show at playhouse. Good was good, service was a bit slow, but they are packed if you are going to dinner before a show.
