FILTER Restaurant 740 West Superior Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44113

"So I have been here one other time for my best friend’s birthday celebration. I chose this place again for my birthday because i could bet on great food with an environment to match. The thing that makes this experience so infuriating is the fact that there’s always this notion about being punctual due to capacity. The staff were weird about the fact that 6/8 of my reserved seats were filled. This is my second time coming and myself and my party are the only ones dining or at the bar. The host who seated us was also our server and bartender. She seemed overworked and exhausted to just give her some grace. Very rude the entire night. There was no birthday celebrations with our group drinks like my friend experienced last year. There were many occasions throughout the night where we had to ask several times for things that should have already been provided like straws or salted rims for margaritas. The only thing saving this trip for me was the fact that the food was great. Everything was as i remembered as far as food goes. Everyone enjoyed their plates and apps. I truly wish the service was better being that we all spent and tipped so much money."

"The drinks were really good. I got a Henny Drop. I ordered steak and eggs. The steak was a sirloin they list as a NY steak. The eggs were over-seasoned with salt and pepper. The potatoes were pre-made but you get what you pay for. The place was really nice and the atmosphere was amazing. The location isn't that great but it's worth a drink or two."

"I think I expected more. The servers was very nice. The salmon was good but the other stuff was just ok the rice n that sweet sauce was overwhelming u needed the sauce from the lumpy grits and fried fish then it tasted like a over priced hibachi. The plate was very pretty tho! Lemons was super fresh for my water."

"Overall it’s an experience. My good friend from high school had her birthday dinner here and we had an amazing time. Nice atmosphere though I felt like the food was a little over priced. My drink was delicious but the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls were kind of salty but they were good though and my salmon was perfect. I think I’m one and done. Like if somebody invited me out again to come here then I would but I wouldn’t just come here on a regular. I still had a ball though!!"

"Boyfriend said he wanted visit due to word of mouth reviews. I then made a reservation as the website stated it’s strongly suggested. The day of something came up so I called to reschedule said reservation and received so much strife with the individual whom answered the phone. Still agreed to come at a later time. Again we decided we really wanted to cancel because of timing and also because of the conversation I had with the staff member over the phone regarding the reservation. I was told my card would be charged $20 per person when the website says $10 per person and also told I couldn’t change because they were packed to capacity. When I called back to cancel another staff member talked me into coming in when I said I would dispute the cancellation or no show charge. When I arrived and was seated I was satisfied with my table however the restaurant was NOT packed to capacity like they stated it would be over the phone. I was pressured into ordering cocktails by the waitress. Also they have a table time limit which is annoying because I felt rushed. They stated the dress code was casual however they let people in with tennis shoes on. The food was okay not as good as I thought it would be. Although the restaurant has nice artwork, ambiance , decor, and good music. But for a first time experience that was all over the place its a no for me I won’t be returning."
