This historic 1896 mansion, that was once the home of Little Italy’s first doctor, has been transformed into the trendy new Washington Place Bistro & Inn located right in the heart of Little Italy & very close to the museums in University Circle. We were there to celebrate my husband’s birthday and couldn’t have made a better choice. He said... More

This is a neighborhood gem at the top of Murray Hill in the Little Italy district of Cleveland. The food is outstanding as is the atmosphere. If you are hungry for food that is not Italian, this is the place. We happened to be here for lunch on this visit and each of us was very pleased. The braised beef... More

I had lunch on Easter Sunday with a group of 20 at Washington Place. The building and the layout are very interesting. The restaurant is an vintage home and the seating is in the rooms of the house. It is attractive and the service was attentive. The prices are appropriate. Because of the number of people in the room and... More

Although the service was friendly and attentive, the food was a disappointment. The best part of the meal was the appetizer. The rest of the meal lacked flavour, although it was nicely presented.

Love it here. Wanted to get a good review for this place out there as it's listed twice on tripadvisors list for Cleveland. My wife and I really enjoy coming here. Great meals, service, and atmosphere. We'll be back soon.

Paid another visit here on my latest trip to Cleveland since first visit was so good. Menu hadn't changed however there is enough to choose from plus they have daily specials. Nice wine list too. Service was not as good as previous visit. Service started well but then fell off quite a bit. We sat for a long time with... More

If you like high class dining without spending a fortune, this is the place to go. They use a lot of locally produced foods and arrange them in mind-blowing combinations, like the mussels in a white wine and chorizo sauce. Complimentary valet is a nice perk, and being only a few short blocks into the heart of Little Italy makes... More

Its a great neighborhood and better still when you find a place to park! The whole meal was fabulous from my figgy drink to the glazed donut bread pudding. Super waiter and I swooned over my cheeseboard.

As two couples we arrived about an hour early for our reservations, but were seated immediately. We got an awesome table with a nice view in the glassed in area of the front of the building. Our wait staff was friendly and efficient. We had a variety of entrees and they were enjoyed by all. They included: Steak Frites (my... More
