I went to the Cigar Lounge in Cleveland Ohio called The Grotto and the girl named Risa, not sure if that's how you spell her name but this is the second time I've been there and she has given excellent service. Very informative, very friendly, very attentive. I highly recommend it

Came in on a Saturday night, while in between spots, but Risa was absolutely was killing it, and I ended up spending the majority of my night here, which was a great change of pace from the typical Saturday night. Highly recommend— it goes without saying that they’ve got an incredible cigar selection, but beyond that, an incredible liquor collection, great cocktails, and a very cozy, intimate spot if you’re looking for that kind of vibe in Cleveland, it’s hands down the best.

Very small spot in the back of another restaurant/ bar. Well ventilated for it to be super small but no walk-in humidor or large cigar selection. The bar is tiny as well as the sitting space but it was very cute overall. Not a place for peak hours.
