Bright side Cleveland was a terrific experience. Our server was super friendly and attentive and offered great suggestions. We loved the vibe and the music, and they offer nice brunch options. We went at 1:45 pm on a Saturday, and we were a little surprised that brunch are the only menu options available until 5:00 pm on weekends. However, the food was amazing. We are happy we found this place and we will be back.

Great music. Fun, hip place - we'd love to try it in the summer. The calamari and fries were awesome.

We enjoyed ourselves! The food experience, was a C: appetizer were quick, we had to wait a good while for main dish, main dish was served room temperature, no salt and pepper on table, and no bread was present to eat with food.

Went for valentine day special and they were out of food on that menu and we had early reservations, 6:00. Totally unacceptable if you ask me!! And we had to pay $10 pp to confirm the reservation!
