I’ve been coming here for many years. The service is always amazing. The food has always been good but today Scotty the Cook made that food to perfection. They hired someone who can really cook. Stephanie, the bartender has always been very attentive always welcome to with a smile and you can tell she loves her job, thank you for the great service Chad you’re doing a great job as an owner

Ruben was less than average, mostly sour kraut. Dont waste money on this sandwich. Got the saur kraut rolls, these are ok....BUT your paying for 1000 Island dressing for the sandwich and the rolls

The food is okay at best for the prices you pay. The service is so variable depending on which bartender you get. But the atmosphere of that place and the convenience is what I go for. Its a cozy bar to unwind at for introverts like myself who dont want people bothering them.

The staff is great and so is the dj. The atmosphere is always friendly. French fries are ok but Im pretty sure they are fried with the chicken and the menu doesnt offer anything else for people with dietary restrictions, so if u are veg definitely eat before you come.

Was in town for the weekend, and this place was recommended to us. We cant recommend it enough! The pierogis, bender burger, and reuben were simply fantastic! We know where we are going when we are back in town!

I used to really enjoy this place. I loved the Caesar salads, Mac n cheese was like no other.. but I’m not gonna even gonna lie, I saw the employee wearing their uniform with this saying on the back: “waking up with a hangover is Gods way of saying you did awesome last night!” And that really rubbed me the wrong way. I’m not even all religious, it’s just hurtful because I know my Father (God) disapproves of getting wasted & waking up hungover. His word says “be sober minded because your adversary the devil roams around like a lion seeking whom he may devour.” It’s against the word of God and I find it disrespectful. Not to me but to God. I hope things change.

Ive gotten food from here before thats why i cant understand why it was so horrible. I got a walleye fish dinner that was absolutely huge but it tasted horrible. Not seasoned at all. The very blandest thing i have eaten ever. The fishy taste was ridiculous not what you would expect from walleye. i go there for the homemade chips and dip and even those were lacking not to mention the $9 price tag not to mention $20 for fish dinner that me and my wife will not eat. The cat will not even eat the fish after peeling 2inches of badder off. i am thoroughly disappointed and will not be coming back anytime soon

Ive traveled all across the country and been to hundreds of dives and The Islander is hands down my favorite place to go. The food is great, the steaks are done perfectly and the staff are all very sweet and attentive, even when its at full capacity. Coco, thank you for the warm welcome the first night I came in there. Brooklyn, Kate and Amanda, yall made the best team and a great environment on New Years, the rest of the staff that I dont recall all of your names, all of you have made this the best place ever. To the local crowd, thank you for making a complete stranger feel very welcome and included. If youre new in town, stop in, youll find many new friends!

I order a Philly cheese steak on a wrap. It taste so nasty and very salty like they pored a whole bottle of salt on the meat. This West side food is so terrible. I guess I be going back to the Eastside the food is so much better. I am so piss I waisted my money on this never again. Maybe they need to hire a experience cook. Philly cheese steak are not suppose to be salty SMFH....

This is a neighborhood bar that is nicely kept up and clean. Ive been there 3 times lately, and every time every server has been extremely pleasant and friendly. Two server cooks I have met were also exceptional. Every time, the food has been extremely good. My two friends said their artichoke spinach dip and pizza was the best theyve ever had. It was exceptional.

We decided to give the Islander a go as we were in the mood for some bar food and saw a Groupon for it.The decor was inviting and fresh, if a tad dimly lit. Our waitress was kind, personable and attentive, even though she was tending bar as well. The chef/runner who delivered our food seemed genuinely interested in whether we enjoyed it/had everything we needed.However, the best thing about the Islander Bar and Grill was the food. Easily some of the best bar food Ive ever had, we tried the chicken tenders (appetizer), spinach and artichoke dip (appetizer), cheeseburger with bacon and a seafood flatbread. The tenders were HUGE and perfectly breaded and fried, the spinach and artichoke dip was tasty and well-proportioned. My wifes burger was excellent even without condiments, the beef was juicy and the bun seared to perfection. The bacon was really thick and tasty, Id definitely recommend adding bacon to your burger. The seafood flatbread was also very good, with plenty of shrimp, scallops and lobster meat topping a well-seasoned, cheesy crust. The only thing we werent impressed by was the tortilla chips that came with the spinach dip. A minor complaint, for sure.Altogether, we both agreed we would absolutely come back to the Islander with or without a groupon in the future. 5/5

I’m fairly new to Cleveland so I’ve been trying to get out and explore new places. The islander itself is a nice bar with good music, and the food is okay, but that’s where everything good stops. The location is VERY hard to find parking especially at night as it’s settled in a complex with 15+ other businesses. The bartenders here are what made this whole experience bad. There were 3 working behind the bar, with no tables seated and not that full of a bar, which means there was no reason for me to not get service as i also directly sat in front of a POS station. I sat there for a good 10 minutes being actively ignored (they were too busy having other conversations between themselves and other people) even after I had to flag them down to just get one drink. Took another 20 mins to get a menu and another drink. It could be the fact that they’re too busy focused on the “regulars”, that they don’t care, or the fact that we were the only “minorities” in this bar. Either way I won’t be back to have another bad experience of horrible bar service. The Local Bar in Strongsville will forever be my home base hands down and if you haven’t went there then I suggest you check them out.

Food is pretty good, enjoyable bar food as well as good drinks. Service varies as it gets busy. Tone was fair, deffinately more positive. Cleanliness was very good. I would go back again, for sure. This isnt the place to go for a unique experience, though. Prices are decent.

Hidden deliciousness! The service was great; the staff & patrons were all friendly! But he food was the greatest part of the experience. I ordered a bloody Mary and it was superb and filled with thick cut bacon, celery, lemon wedge, and topped with 3 large olives. I had a plain Jane burger cooked medium, it was so flavorful and juicy! Best burger Ive had out that tasted this good and fresh! The prices are just right and the quality is even better!! My husband enjoyed their beer selection on tap and the Ruben, it was made just right with the all the fixings .. along side accompanied their kettle chips and a pickle spear. Overall we enjoyed every bit of our visit and will certainly be back again, soon!!

The food here was amazing definitely delicious but lemme tell you, the service was absolute dog water. If youre not sitting at the bar forget it. Waitress came up one time and we got one drink even though we were going to order a lot more. It was very obvious we werent wanted there for whatever reason. Maybe cause we werent loud and obnoxious old men? Who knows. Either way its a bummer cause the food is great but that was some of the worst service Ive had in a long time

Been a regular customer there for almost 2 years and tip them always well , I know everyone there . if you were to pushed down to the ground and thrown out for doing nothing , it’s your bar. He is not even employee there who threw me out. Some people think they own this bar but they don’t. Remember people Chad own this bar NOT you , I pity on them. Have fun with your little sad and pathetic life. If you don’t know how to treat other people you shouldn’t be in the bars. Be in your own little locker room smh. Most of the bartenders are very friendly except one or two. They don’t care about regulars. I still recommend this bar except few issues. Learned my lesson. I have self respect , this is not the first time I had been disrespected in this establishment. I will take my business someplace else.

I cannot say enough about how great my experience was at The Islander Bar last night! I stopped in after work to grab a cocktail and some dinner and was very happy with the results. First, even though the bar was very full, I was able to find a seat quickly and was greeted by Brooklyn immediately. As she was stepping away to make my drink, Rachael made eye contact and also acknowledged me, grabbing a menu for me. There were also two other bartenders, Kayla and another girl who did introduce herself, and I’m very sorry I forget her name. (Denise I feel like, I’m so sorry if I’m wrong because you they were all awesome!) The thing I thought was so great is instead of just taking care of their specific area or guest, as most bars do, all the bartenders interacted with everyone which made it feel more inclusive. They were all friendly and their service was amazing. I would come back just for that alone!The food is another great reason! After looking at the menu and trying to decide through many great options of sandwiches, entrées and your traditional bar foods like wings and other appetizers, I settled on the strip steak dinner which came with vegetables, french fries and a salad. My steak was cooked perfectly which I order extra rare and it’s very hard to get to my liking. The seasonings on the food were perfection (even the fries were better than a lot I had and that was due to correct cooking and seasoning)! I continued eating long after I was full just because I was enjoying it so much.After I was finished I asked Rachel a little bit about the things that go on in the bar in the different events that happen their daily for entertainment such as karaoke DJs and trivia nights. She gave me a little bit of information about each night and invited me to come back and check them out which I certainly plan to do. All in all I would just like to say that it was an amazing experience, And if you get the opportunity you should definitely check it out for yourself!

I would gladly have given this little gem five stars, but the service was on the slow side. Admittedly, we were there on a Friday evening and there were only two servers out front splitting time between the bar and the tables. (maybe bring in a third body for the Friday after-work crowd?) Happy hour drink and appetizer prices were great! Highly recommend the spinach and artichoke dip and quesadilla!

Drove all the way from Cleveland to pick up an order. Get home. Your Shrimp Basket says comes with fries... Had 0 fries. You put lettuce. Your pizza wasnt in a box, it was in a foam box so the cheese stuck all over it and melted some of it. It also was very soggy. The wings were good but you forgot a sauce on the side of the 2 we ordered. The chicken quesadilla was very soggy as well. Tired to call to let them know they were missing food from my order and no answer. No more take out orders from here ever again. The dudes who were doing keroke when I went in were awesome. I havent seen a karaoke bar that live in a while. Kudos to those karaoke guys.

Visited twice during vacations to Les Cheneaux with a great experience both times. Despite only three servers on staff at 4:00 pm on July 6, they did an excellent job working several tables and a near-full bar. Nice teamwork. A pleasant, hardworking, and engaged crew. Beer selection was solid, including full pints of Bells seasonal Hopslam IPA. COVID-caused shortages and substitutions did not interfere with food that was fast, hot, and tasty.

This used to be a great place to visit, mainly for locals during happy hour. Extensive food menu which covers many different bases from steak to burger to funnel fries to burschetta. They are not skimpy on their liquor pours if you spend enough money and tip well. However... when their DJ guy turns off your TouchTunes 20 minutes before his scheduled time and yiu lose a bunch of money... not cool.

Review №77

Probably has decent food, but literally I mustve been the one person who got a bad deal. Spent 11 bucks or so and I got a well done burger which looked like it was slapped together thats more extra burnt than well done on one side. Even the ingredients I asked to exclude were just thrown in around the burger. In addition, I had to wait a good 30 minutes for this garbage to come out. Yet when I called to place the order, I was told 20 minutes. It took 10 minutes to get there because I went somewhere else beforehand. So I waited the last 10 minutes, plus 20 more minutes for a grand total of 40 minutes for it to actually be done.

Was here with a large group for a birthday. I enjoy fun, diveyish places, but....Some of the worst mixed drinks I have ever had. I tried a few to give them a chance, the shots were equally as gross. Im talking just straight well liquor and cheap mix. I didnt eat the food but several other people did and werent happy.DJ was fine. Basic mainstream and oldies party music.Sheriff IDing at the door hung around and chatted up girls. Not the bars fault but still creepy.I like being optimistic and usually give places a second try but theres was nothing about this place to go back to.

The pizza great but the expensive shrimp undercooked the Vein still in and the cornmeal was so old that they fried it in all I can say is nooo!

The food and karaoke was good but the service was awful. We waited 20 minutes just for the check AFTER we were already done. When we went to the bar to ask for t the last of the three bartenders went into the kitchen so there was no one to help. Will never go back.

Place was ok. Drinks were cheap. Service is what made me to reduce stars. Didnt greet and never asked me if I like to order food.

The food was excellent but when I asked the waitress if they had Landshark beer she said no and when I suggested they carry it she said no when I asked to speak to the owner or manager she said that she does all the ordering and she wouldnt order it and I thought she was rude. I guessThe Customer is Always Right is a dead concept I wont be going back to the Islander Bar & Grill

This place is a total dump. Was a nice suburban white bar until the former owner Chuppa sold it and now its a total dive bar with rap music and an undesireable croud.
