Does Cleveland Rock...or what here!!

OK, as the resident native, hope I can chime in with some workable suggestions.

First off, welcome MrKey (in from Fla or CNX??!!), Burkey (SanDiego1K told me about you), Holland (our powwow is long overdue), BobL (glad to e-meet ya!), pitflyer (hope your dates work), shouldabeenablonde (don't I wish too!) and tribeflyer (this could be their year on the diamond at the Jake).

For me 6/12 at 7p should work, 7/2 might as well be 7/2/02, too far in advance to anticpate kids baseball, soccer and sleepovers schedules!

Anyhow, if downtown is the most convenient place:

Blue Pointe Grill has excellent food (leans toward seafood, but meat is also great) around $20+ per entree Bar is pretty good if rinks are the primary activity. W 6th and St. Clair, less than 2 blocks from Public Square.

Cleveland Chophouse, which someone referenced is also quite good (leans toward meat, but seafood is also great!!!) around $20+ per entree. Sure enough, its right next door to Blue Pointe!
Atmosphere is more clubby.

On the east side in Beachwood is Moxie at Richmond/Chagrin , just off I-271. Lively bar, great eclectic cuisine $20+ per entree.

If I'm aiming too high price-wise, you can always get generous drinks and fun fingerfood at the Friday's, Cookers, Applebee's of the world. For more local flavor, please see above.

Out of commission until Tuesday night. Whatever this motley crew of CLE FFers decides, for 6/12, I'm totally there.

Cheers!
