One of if not my favorite restaurants in Lakewood. The whole menu is incredible along with the staff and the uniqueness of the restaurant itself. Highly recommend to go on a Tuesday for burger night!
Located in the back of @bottlehouselakewood hands down best chicken strips I've had, with the honey drizzle that has a little kick on the back in. Thr fries were just like fair fries cooked to perfection and the burger just YUMMMM that special sauce hits the spot. Definitely worth stopping by just note all drinks are sold separately at the bar of the bottle house.
Unsure how I allowed Eugene to elude me all of this time! Stopped in recently to taste through their menu and fell in love with their well-crafted, delicious comfort food. Chicken tenders, house burger, schnitzel, fries, dressed Brussels, mac and cheese, etc. all on-point, and can be paired with a selection of house sauces (up to nine). Full bar and Bottle House's stellar meads, beer, and ciders on-site. Service is excellent, and I can't wait to return.
Loved our food - so many interesting flavors. So savory. BEST VEGGIE BURGER EVER. My K-POP chicken sandwich was nuts. Kids were like, “is this our new “spot”, please!?!”
Our rehearsal dinner at Eugene’s was absolutely wonderful! The food was hands-down the best we’ve ever had at a rehearsal dinner—every dish was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. One of the highlights was meeting the chef at Eugene’s, who worked with us to create a custom menu that perfectly suited our tastes and needs. They even made fantastic suggestions to accommodate our gluten- and dairy-free guests, which everyone appreciated. Being able to tailor the menu to our vision was such a special touch that made the evening feel uniquely ours. The venue itself was beautiful and welcoming, with plenty of space for our group to relax and celebrate. The team at Eugene’s was also flexible and worked with us on the drink minimum, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The beer and drink selection was excellent, with something for everyone, and everything was reasonably priced. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and highly recommend Eugene’s for anyone planning a rehearsal dinner or special event!
The burger and fries were amazing. The customer service was great! The drinks were great addition to the meal. The atmosphere was nice chill vibe an environment for family, hanging with friends, or a chill date night.
Finding and eating the Tinman Burger at @eugenecle Kitchen at @bottlehouselakewood This is the first time I have had the burger since I had it at the old Ohio City Galley. It’s been years. Definitely worth the wait. The OG Tinman Burger comes with american cheese - special sauce - s&s pickles plus some shoestring onions.
The restaurant is located on the back side of a bar/brewery. The food was great. A little expensive but worth it. We drove from Toledo just to try it. The bun on the smash burger was perfect. My husband thought the cucumber salad was different but okay. The fries were really good. Service was great as well. They bring the food to you when it is ready. Oh and the chicken tenders were the best.
