Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Brecksville

Michael was an excellent waiter….food was very good. We haven’t eaten dinner here in a year and felt it was better than last time. We would come back.

Was seated by the window a party of 5 for my son's birthdays. It was perfect. We had the calamari and crab cakes (wish they were a little bigger, but very good) Both my sons ordered the ribeye and enjoyed it very much. I went with Restaurant week and the lobster bisque was amazing. Walleye and lobster pasta were the other two meals. Both were enjoyed. I would highly recommend Pier W. Always a good dinner choice.

Our first visit to The Last Page was excellent. We ordered the Chef's experience....so without ordering, we received at least 6 items from the menu, one after the other, and each was terrific. We started with a wonderful salad, then had ahi tuna tartar, then roasted carrots in a very nice cool Greek sauce, then chicken, potatoes, salmon and cooked onion halves...all shared in family style (just two of us) and topped off with a very moist citrus cake and wine. We were stuffed and had no doubts about any of the dishes. Of course, great meals are no cheap and neither is The Last Page; our meal with tax and a well-deserved tip came to over $230. Of course, we would go back again without hesitation, but not every weekend.

What a pleasure, the new interior design of this restaurant makes you feel like you’re in a very classy supper club, every table was full, yet the noise level was perfect. Our waitress was outstanding, attentive and perfection. Our meals, oh my, they were superb, beautiful. We were all really impressed and already planned a future visit!

I enjoyed an exceptional dining experience at a recommended restaurant; Fahrenheit... The decor, cuisine, and service were outstanding—I truly struck gold tonight! Here’s how it went. Fahrenheit opens with a small loaf of focaccia that sets the bar high: served warm, accompanied by honey, truffle oil, and olive oil subtly spiced with chili pepper flakes. Each bite of this rich, aromatic bread hints at the culinary creativity to come. When I requested fresh-squeezed lemonade, they delivered with a perfectly tart and refreshing glass—a gesture that signals the level of hospitality here. The best places always accommodate, and Fahrenheit makes it effortless. Their take on Mexican street corn? A reimagined soup, velvety like a corn chowder but brimming with depth. Corn, sour cream, shaved parmesan, bacon, and a medley of onions, cilantro, jalapeño, and spices—all come together in a luscious blend that’s as visually appealing as it is bold in flavor. For the main course, I opted for the Vietnamese Pork Chop. The meat was tender and flavorful, and when paired with the lemongrass fried rice and sautéed mango, the plate became a playground of textures and flavors, striking that perfect balance between complementary and contrasting. Imagine the thrill of fireworks on your taste buds. Despite a satisfying meal, the dessert menu was too tempting to ignore. I decided to linger, making space for the Sizzling Blueberry Cobbler. Served warm with a cornmeal cake biscuit, sweet blueberry compote, vanilla bean gelato, and a bourbon-brown sugar Chantilly, this dish crowned the meal in indulgent style. Garnished with edible flowers, it was almost too beautiful to eat—almost.
