OpenTable has just announced its top 100 restaurants “Fit for Foodies,” based on more than 5 million reviews from across the nation (if you travel frequently, definitely check this list out).
Nestled among the 5 million rants and raves of America’s self-proclaimed foodies is a list of 10 Northeast Ohio Restaurants that have received a Diners’ Choice Award for Best Overall Dining Experience.

northeast ohio huh? you went outside the area to ashtabula, mahoning, columbiana. carroll, trumbull, etc.etc. in your quest right?all 22 counties…
are you kidding.. this is what you came up with..
There are a lot of other places that are better than some of these
The photo with the cigarettes in the background was taken by a guest, and was posted to his personal Instagram account. Not sure why opentable used this picture, but the restaurant was not responsible for this photo.
…and suddenly I have a craving for seafood. curse you, delicious instagram photos.
Great selection. Look forward to checking out the few I’ve yet to visit on this list.
Iv’e been to all ten and couldn’t agree MORE ! BRAVO
garbage list
Taza is good but pretty generic. It’s just Aladdin’s with some garnish.
No Lola’s? Come on.
No Luxe?
the list looks a little bias, did anyone try a restaurant that wasn’t a steakhouse?
I would ad Lola, Lolita, Momocho, Petit Triangle Cafe, Strip Steakhouse, Ty Fun, Ginko and #1 Pho
I remember Mandy Matela (Siegel) stealing all her boyfriend’s pills after surgery… MEH!
