Tartine Bistro

I truly love seeing restaurants having alternative substitutions for folks that cannot have dairy and vegan options. It's the inclusivity for me. I went during brunch for my first visit. I ordered a crêpe with braised beef, tomatoes, and cheese. The beef was very tender and overall the flavors were delicious. It was jampacked it with cheese. My side was the hash browns cooked to extra crispy. Overall my dish was delicious and I was pleased with it. My guest order the sweet crepe with berries,whip cream and almond. The sweet crepes didn't hit the mark compare to the savory crepe that I order. Not only was it missing the whip cream but it overall needed something else. However the green beans my guest order were delicious with the notes of lemon zest and cripsy in the fresh way had me reaching for more. If you are in a hurry, beware service was on the slower side of the spectrum. The staff was nice and helpful. They have lovely outdoor seating section perfect spot to enjoy the summer and fall weather we have in Cleveland. Overall, my experiences was pleasant, and I look forward to coming back and trying out their dinner menu.

Amazing experience at this restaurant. My first French Dining experience and it was one I’ll never forget! Everything I had was great. From the bread and butter to the lamb chops. I also tried a frisée salad and the onion soup which was immaculate as well. The service was exceptional and everyone had a smile on their faces. I can’t wait to come back!

Great atmosphere and wonderful service. Unique dishes and very high quality ingredients. Excellent variety of global wines are offered. Unique cocktails that are not your typical spirits and mixer. Be bold and try something new! The tartines are open face sandwiches that offer a great option as opposed to your everyday open-faced sandwiches. The French onion tartines was by far our favorite! We order the steak tartar on bone marrow. While the beef was well, flavored and served perfectly. It could do without the bone marrow as it was cold and not well seasoned. Desserts are a must try as we had the crème brûlée and the pot du creme. Perfection! Service is top notch and quick! I recommend ordering a course, finishing it and then ordering the next course. The kitchen is super fast and if you don't want to be rushed, this is a great way to enjoy Your meal.

I enjoyed this spot and the over all area it was located. Lots of good choices tucked in the area but this one stands out. They had some great items to choose from on their menu and the quality cuisine will have you coming back to sample the rest of their offerings. The service was great too. It is a smaller size location so I recommend getting a reservation for busy times.

Had my baby shower there and everything was PERFECT. Jen was the best event planner I’ve ever used for a room rental. She was on top of it leading up to the event and her/her entire team was amazing and helpful day off - including set up our personal decor and cleaning up. Plus food/service was excellent. I highly recommend the space!

It was my first time at Tartine on a Friday evening. We had a 5:45 reservation and there was hardly anyone in the small, intimate place, but quickly filled up as we sat there! Our waitress was incredibly welcoming and made us feel so comfortable. I appreciate how she explained things to us, instead of just assuming we should know everything like some snobby places might. She was excellent! The aesthetic was so romantic and cozy. The patio looks like it is so cute when it's summertime! I want to come back to sit out there!! They have an entire vegan menu on the back of the regular one. It's not an afterthought; it's intentional. We got the fingerling potatoes as an app. They were fine, nothing special. I got the vegan French dip tartine with real cheese (I'm vegetarian, not vegan). The salad it same with was excellent!!! The tartine itself (open face sandwich) was lacking in flavor. My husband got the Mediterranean couscous with scallops, which was in special. And he said it was excellent! For dessert, we got the crème brûlée and tiramisu. Both were very yummy! Crème Brûlée was typical. The tiramisu was different because it was hazelnut, which I love! This was a very pricy place, so not for a casual dinner. But for a fancy date (which is what we were on) it was perfect!!

On a Thursday, late afternoon, I drove from the east side of Cleveland to Rocky River, or as the locals say "River", to enjoy the food and happy hour at Tartine for a second time. The first was earlier this year at a birthday party. Then I didn't know what to expect. Fortunately, however, because it was a fun-filled gathering, I got a chance to sample some of the menu items that I hadn't ordered, most notably, the 4 cheese pizza 😋 😀. I ordered, for the first time, the chicken Tartine, and it was delicious. The taste stayed with me for a few months. So, when I got there, I knew what I wanted but also wanted to surprise my palette. I ordered the Tartine, of course, and I also ordered the caramelized dates. They were brought out together. I had fun going back and forth between the dishes. I savored every bite. I then asked for a recommendation for dessert from the bar tender, and she said that she would surprise me. She brought out the creme brulee, and it was amazing. 5 stars all around. Can't wait to go back.
