Ridgewood Kitchen & Spirits 9853 Johnnycake Ridge Road, Mentor, OH 44060

"Ridgewood is the place you go where the servers legitimately care about your experience, the cooks legitimately care that your food is made right and tastes amazing, the owners legitimately care about providing quality atmosphere food and employees to serve you. Their pizza is amazing, their events are great, the atmosphere is homie and welcoming. They have a gorgeous patio and I recommend this restaurant to everyone in my life often. You cannot make a mistake going here."

"This is one of my favorite spots in Concord. After leaving Mortville, I have been looking for new places to wine and dine. Ridgewood Kitchen and Spirits is definitely a place to check out; especially their weekly specials. *ask for Mary... she is the BEST!"

"This is my absolute favorite restaurant in Lake County. The food is always incredible... All of it. I go here all the time and the food is always so consistently good. The servers are great too and the live music is always an added bonus. Great fun atmosphere for sure! The only complaint is the inconsistentcy of the cocktails. I feel like they are hit or miss depending on the bartender. Unfortunately, some of the drinks I've tried from the younger bartenders miss the mark while the more experienced bartenders make great drinks. Thankfully, they have a great wine and beer selection that you can get instead and so I'm still giving them 5 stars because this is such an awesome establishment overall! My favorite menu items are the poutine with short rib and the mushroom and mashed potato pizzas. The smoked wings are also out of this world delicious! I've eaten here many times, had food delivered, and ordered take out and they do a great job no matter what!"

"I have not been this pleasantly surprised in a long time! This is a small restaurant in a sad, small strip mall...but please do not let that put you off! Walking in, it's clean, cute, and lively. You know immediately that this is a good place for funky local beers and good burgers. But that isn't all. I had the Rupert Holmes Shrimp dish and it was heavenly. Luscious shrimp and just enough of them. Coconut risotto (yes, and it's delicious) with mango sauce and pineapple salsa. I was a bit doubtful but I kid you not, one of the best dishes I have had in a long time! The staff we very nice and just the right amount of attentive. And the wine pour was generous. This is absolutely going to be my go to when I'm in town. I cannot wait to try other specials. They seem to have a nice outdoor space, but it wasn't open when I was there (June 12th). Go there and enjoy!"

"This was the first time we at Ridgewood and we loved it. It was very busy but we must have timed it perfectly, because we were seated immediately. The service was fast and friendly. The atmosphere is bar-like with a very long bar. They were playing a Guardians game. It appears they have live music some night, but not when we were there. The portobello burger was excellent. We'll definitely be back."
