Tavern of Little Italy: Cleveland Bar Guide

Adorable establishment! Definitely recommend if you have not been! Bridget was our bartender and she was a hoot! Excellent humor and conversation throughout our meal. She was super attentive and we received excellent service from her, Nicole and Nick. Loved the lights inside, creating a cozy ambiance for the evening. The arancini were delicious and both pasta dishes as well. Highly recommend for a casual or business meal.

We had a fantastic dining experience at T.O.L.I. (Tavern of Little Italy)! We chose it for its diverse menu that offers a great mix of Italian classics and American favorites—and it did not disappoint. We sampled the panko-breaded shrimp, wings and stuffed hot Hungarian peppers, fresh dinner salads, and hearty pasta dishes. One standout feature was the gluten-free pasta option, which is a thoughtful touch for those with dietary restrictions. The outdoor patio was a perfect spot to enjoy our meal, with a comfortable atmosphere and super attentive service from start to finish. When visiting Little Italy, T.O.L.I. is definitely worth a stop. Be sure to check out their menu online—and make a reservation, especially on busy nights!

If you’re looking for the true essence of Italian hospitality, this is the place to be! The chicken Alfredo were simply outstanding — full of flavor and comfort. Rachel , the bartender was absolutely wonderful and made me feel right at home. Thank you again for such an unforgettable experience . I’ll definitely return on my next trip!

Hands down the best Chicken Alfredo I have ever had. I live roughly 45 minutes away and have decided if, at any time, I’m craving Chicken Alfredo, I will drive here to get it despite the distance. It is freshly made and made very well. The chicken is a thin enough cutlet where it’s not too much and you still get a nice serving or protein, and the sauce is seasoned perfectly and is made to order. If you like real Alfredo, go here!

Wow who would have ever thought this place had such great food . I had the Caprese salad , and I took to go shrimp Tortellini, and a Fettuccine Alfredo which my wife said was excellent. Pretty good portions moderately priced but pretty good considering food costs restaurants are paying. I had Olivia for a bar maid she was great kept the drinks coming and she was very nice . Very attentive she was , and the employees I encountered super friendly. They also have a patio in the back. They pour a nice drink here u get your moneys worth, and I must mention that ice cold Peroni , and quite a few other draft beers . Very clean establishment I enjoyed the decor as well .
