Eliot's Bar: Cleveland Restaurant Guide

While staying at the Hilton, we dined at Eliot’s bar and Fuentes (aka Nano!) was awesome. He handled his tables with perfection. His memory when taking orders is second to none. Sodas are topped up without having to ask. He is amazing at what he does and deserves all good things coming his way! The food was very good as well. We had pizza, wings (delicious!), smash burger, squash soup, Caesar salad (wish they’d stuck with romaine lettuce on this), and wagyu hot dog. Very nice relaxing area to grab a bite with a bar and TVs.

Sunday night November. Eliot’s Bar at Hilton downtown is an excellent find, great food, decent prices, and outstanding service from Scott behind the bar (makes a good whisky sour). The atmosphere invites easy conversation and a relaxed chat over a drink and bar food. It’s a genuinely good spot to unwind, and the kind of place that makes you want to come back. 3 screens for games and if you want to be quiet and chill then you can - no pressure.

This a a great hotel bar. The bartender made the best Old Fashioned I’ve ever had at a hotel bar. For that reason I’m giving 5 stars. Expect hotel bar prices but worth it in my opinion.

So we visited Elliott’s bar because we were in the Cleveland hotel Hilton. I’d say if you’re going here for a drink, it’s probably fine but you’re getting food be prepared for not so good table service, and questionable food. I wish I had better things to say but hopefully they can get better staff. It may make the experience a little better.

Dennis, behind the bar, was absolutely fabulous, when I sat and asked how the Old Fashioned's are made. My specificity regarding an old fashioned I'll pay for, can rub some people the wrong way, but he was more than accommodating and ensured that it was made just like I preferred. ❤️💯 I cannot recommend this bar more. The bone marrow meal, was an elevation I did not expect. Seating is plentiful, the ambiance is classy yet casual fun, and even as a local, I'll be back!
