Best Authentic Restaurants in Bay Village

Marco was an excellent server and the entire team was very attentive and did everything they could to give us an excellent experience. We were a large party but never felt rushed or had to wait long after we put in orders to get our food/drinks. All of the food was truly excellent and I can’t wait to come back, especially for the frutti di mare which has all kinds of perfectly cooked seafood. We also got a special birthday surprised that was really a sight to behold and made my day! The team has only been working together for 10 days but knocked it out of the park, so I can only imagine what it will be like once they’ve had some more time together. I can’t wait to come back!

Excellent fish and seafood dishes. Cook on the bass was perfect.

Our server Ermano (sorry if I misspelled your name) was wonderful. He was very pleasantly tentative and kept checking on how everything was.

We have heard about Contessa for well over a year and finally got there. It was worth the wait. Ride to the 17th floor of the Newbury and enter another world - one of tastefully sumptuous ambience with superb "welcome to Contessa" service and food to die for. The view is amazing, especially from the tables for two along the windows, but make no mistake, this is not a view restaurant. A little pricey, but fair value, and the food is so delicious that we were sorry when each course came to an end. Parking is a challenge (other than an expensive valet option) but in good weather, nearby garages are less than a 10 minute walk. Give it a try! We are sorry we waited so long to get here.

lovely meal at mj connors. warm welcome and great service good value for money would definitely return food was tasty and good size portion.
