    Had a great night at the Hard Rock Rocksino and dinner at Kosar's steakhouse. The food was excellent. Had crab cakes appetizer. Best I've had anywhere. They have a soup and salad bar that is available with the meal, or AS a meal. We both added it to our entree. She had the smoked prime rib, and I got Osso Bucco. Didn't need a knife for either one. Fork tender and prepared to proper doneness. Great meal and very reasonable prices compared to other high end steakhouses I've been to. Be sure to give Kosar's a try if you're having a good night at the casino. You won't regret it.

    Classy places usually don't have salad bars - I thought that was pretty lame. Food was really good, BUT EXPENSIVE. I had a filet (the larger one) with a topping, mashed potatoes and two beers - $80. Service was a bit slow, but we did have a party of eight, so I'll give them a break on that. Woman filling the water glasses appeared to be suffering from Bernie's "diminishing skills" - took her five tries to get everyone's water filled. Then she came back and said "have you guys had enough bread? three baskets seems like enough." Mind you, we only had one basket of bread for the entire table. I must stress though, the food was really good - you could have cut my filet with a butter knife... but $80 seems a bit overpriced.

    Not bad, not good. Just meh. Someone else wrote that most casino steakhouses are amazing, and I'd have to agree with that. I'd also agree that this is not one of those amazing casino steakhouses. Then again, this is Northfield, not Las Vegas. It IS your best bet for a good steak in the Northfield area...but don't go here expecting a high-end dining experience. In my mind, salad bars don't belong in a place that markets itself as high-end, but maybe that's just me. Perhaps my expectations were too high. The food, overall, was not bad...but the sound of the casino mixed with staring at a salad bar just prevented me from feeling like I was in a nice restaurant. It just doesn't have that special ambience. I might go here again if I were headed to see a show at Hard Rock Live or to play some slots...but I wouldn't go out of my way.

    This is a new Steakhouse in the Northfield Hard Rock Rocksino complex. It is the upscale restaurant, the only one that takes reservation. It is available on OpenTable. The motif is class, upscale. The pigskin bound menus add a unique touch. There is a nice wine list, containing everything from basic Ohio wines to high priced special items. The menu has your basic steak and seafood offerings. Prepare to pay extra for toppings and sides on your steaks. The appetizer menu has some nice items and there is a salad bar that you can order as a side or an entree. Items vary seasonally. We went soon after opening, so maybe some of the experience will get worked out. Service was friendly, but inconsistent. Drinks were well mixed and strong. The salad bar was nice, but no soups available when we were there. The crabcakes we ordered were nice, but slightly burned. The steaks were prepared to order and flavorful. Nice job there. We did not have room to sample desserts. So overall, this was a good to very good experience. If you visit the Rocksino, this is a nice choice to eat. Is it worth a special trip just for the dining experience? Well, you can get a similar experience in many other locations, including chain steakhouses.

    This is a great place to get an awesome meal/experience in Northfield! We were seated immediately on a Friday evening and our service was wonderful! It is on the expensive side but the food is delicious! I recommend the Shrimp Scampi. I would eat here again!

    Food, excellent. But it stops there. $43 for a steak and a serve yourself salad bar. Really.. Again, the food was good but come on now. No plates ready, to long for drinks to come, empty plates on table way to long. Really it was likely just our waitress. She was friendly but not very attentive. Not what I would expect when dropping almost $200 on a night out.

    My husband and I went out for what we expected to be a high end, great steakhouse dinner. We were early for our reservation, so we sat at the bar. Seemed like a long wait to be acknowledged, but we finally got a drink. We were seated for dinner, in the middle of the restaurant; not the best place. But hey, it was a Saturday night and busy. And we had made our reservations that night. So, that could be attributed to our fault. We were attended to right away. But that was the end of that. The waitress disappeared for extremely long times. My prime rib, which she recommended, was cooked medium well or well done. I ordered medium. In a real steakhouse, this would have came out with a pink center. There was no pink in this one. The waitress checked on us after my taking my first bite. The first bite was well done, but I thought when I got into it a little it would be cooked correctly. I had to ask another waiter twice to get her. Like I said earlier, she disappeared for extremely long lengths of time before checking on us. She finally came back, and I showed her my meat. She immediately said, "You're right" and whisked it away. My first piece of meat, although way overlooked was beautiful. The replacement piece, although cooked correctly, was full of fat. And had no flavor! Similar to what you get in low end restaurants. My husband ordered the Delmonico steak. Although he ordered medium also; his meat was cooked correctly, but: No flavor! In closing, for a high end restaurant, the service was horrible and the food wasn't much better. Don't waste your money!! Very disappointed.

    Enjoyed our experience at Kosar's tonight. The food was very good, the prices are average for an upscale steak house, the service could have been a little better. All four of us had steak, I had filet which was cooked perfectly, au gratin potatoes with a creamy sauce that was amazing, and green beans. Everyone at our table liked their food. We were celebrating a birthday so we also had dessert, the cheesecake with raspberry sauce was the best I've ever had! Yes you have to pay an extra $6.00 for the salad bar with your entre and you have to pay extra for your potato. If you can't afford the "extra's", eat at the buffet. The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is because the server could have been more attentive in refilling our drinks. In my opinion this place is worth the money and we will be going back again!

    Waited an hour on order for 2. Just pork chop and medium prime rib. The size of seating area far larger than cooking area can keep pace with. My prime rib was well done and for $25 with no side dish seemed unreasonable to rate any higher than 2 stars. Staff was friendly but experience (casino included) was ruined by long wait and underperforming kitchen. Won't be making it back.

    One of the worst meals I've had in a while. The best thing about the meal was the bread and pretzel rolls. Ordered filet and ribeye, came out cold and over cooked. Both were redone but came out barely warm. Manager tried everything she could to take care of us. Will give this place some time to get it together and give it another try as it has great atmosphere

    First, let me start off by saying my wife and I are big Brown's fans and especially love Bernie Kosar. We were anxious to try this new restaurant at the Hard Rock Rocksino that bears his name. The decor was nice, especially liked walking around and looking at Kosar's memorabilia in the restaurant. Now on to the food. We started with the Ahi Tuna and also the Sausage Sampler appetizers. The sausages were flavorful and we enjoyed them. The Ahi was just ok. Basically nothing to get too excited about. We've had Ahi Tuna at a number of places over the years and this one was pretty bland. For our main course my wife had the filet and I had the prime rib. Both of these were solid. Cooked to order and flavorful. Prepare to pay extra for everything you would like to go along with your meal. I wanted horseradish sauce with my prime rib ($3 for what would normally be included). I also had a baked potato that was very large - for $8. Fortunately I didn't have to pay extra for butter and sour cream to go with it. My wife had mashed potatoes ($8) and a small cup of what was called brussels sprouts ($8) that was basically shredded brussels sprouts with some bacon and other stuff. She was somewhat disappointed with them. She liked her mashed potatoes. She had a glass of wine with her dinner which was priced similarly to other restaurants. When she asked the server for wine recommendations, the server told her she didn't really know anything about the wines available. I was more in a beer mood, so our server showed me the beer list. They were out of my first two choices, so I settled for my third choice. Our server also said they had cocktails available, but no list because they were still working on it. Our server was, however, friendly and polite. When I asked what some of their more popular meal selections were, she said that it was "basically a matter of personal preference." I guess that's true, but my wife and I like hearing a new (to us) restaurant's popular items to get a feel for how we should order. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be returning to this restaurant. Our total bill was over $130, for what I would consider a pretty average meal. We are used to paying this kind of restaurant bill once or twice a month at other restaurants in Cleveland and Akron, but the quality of food here just doesn't equal what is available in those restaurants.

    We had a table of 5 shortly after the restaurant opened. It took almost an hour for our food after ordering and once it came out 4 out of 5 dinners were sent back for being cold. Those entrees (not sides or salads) were removed from the check. For the price point, the total experience was highly disappointing. The food, presentation, service and atmosphere were all lacking. I don't mind paying $40 for just the filet, but it came out in the middle of a white plate with absolutely no garnish/sauce/presentation. I also don't mind paying $8 for a side (similar to Morton's or Flemings) but the corn my husband ordered was only enough for him. At other upscale restaurants, the sides are shareable. In addition, I have never been to an upscale restaurant with a salad bar- yuck! I attribute the kinks in the kitchen to being new and will be worked out. But, unless the prices are lowered or the food/presentation/service is changed to meet the price point, we will not be back. Too many other restaurants in the Cleveland area to spend $200/couple at dinner and be more than satisfied!

    I had a great experience here. I had a special for the night of Grouper and Cajun Shrimp. It was SOOO GOOD. I also got the salad bar, which was pretty good, but the sea food chowder was the star from that. It was great! We also had lobster mac & cheese and a chocolate ganache. The ganache was TO DIE FOR. I highly recommend.

    Skip it! My husband and I came here tonight for a special occasion and while the server was great the food was anything but. The shrimp cocktail appetizer my hubbs got was his highlight and the cheesecake was his second. Both of us ordered the 6 oz filet - his came as ordered - mine was charred (I asked for medium plus but not medium well - this was dead/charcoal). I would have taken up the offer to send it back but I wasn't even asked why I wasn't eating a filet. The carbonara Mac n Cheese was cheesy but bland - almost tasted like French onion soup (odd). The sweet potato was good - the size of a football too. Bread service at the beginning was nice as well. Bill came and it was shown that my Hubbs had been served the wrong scotch and my steak (remember we both ordered the 6oz) for some reason mine - which I didn't eat more then 4 bites of and brought home for our dogs...was $38 instead of his $30! I would not go back - I would not send anyone there either. Oh and when you have no bathroom in the establishment just only thru the video lottery terminals (swear to god that's exactly the terminology I was given when I asked lol) you don't make me want to spend $60+ per person again. Just like the real thing leaves something to be desired in Cleveland.

    The decor and presentation of the food was nice but the the taste of the food wasn't anything spectacular. Paid a lot of money for an ok dinner and dessert.

    For an upscale restaurant this place really did not impress with the food. The atmosphere and service were fine. Many of our entrées were not even matching the quality of an Applebee's with the prices being three or more times as much!

    A very beautiful restaurant in the Hardrock casino with a nice private room. A group of us went for my brother's 21st birthday and we got great attention from our server and the drinks were nice and strong!. Unfortunately, I was sick, so I couldn't really eat much and there wasn't a clear soup for me, but everyone else steaks, chops and appetizers looked amazing! My fiance had the New York strip and it was cooked right to temperature. The baked potato we had was the size of a football!! Even the halibut special was gorgeous. I will defintely be back to actually eat the food and gamble!

    My team from work thought that Kosar's Wood-Fire Grill would be a great place for our 2014 holiday gathering, We think we made a great choice. They are on the $$$$ side, but the menu choices and the service was great, and I love the salad bar

    Had a lovely dinner here tonight before attending a show. Started with the crab cake appetizer, it was sweet and decadent. For dinner I got the 10 Oz prime beef and the hubby got the pork chop, with grilled asparagus & mac n cheese carbonara to share as sides. Everything was prepared good and piping hot to our liking. The bread basket and butter sampling was delicious too. Too full to try a dessert, maybe next time. :-) if we had one complaint it would be the service is on the slower side, so leave yourself plenty of time to enjoy dinner if attending a show at the velvet room.

    Had a great meal for our Anniversary at Kosar's tonight. The bacon wrapped scallops were excellent, and the bone-in Ribeye was perfectly prepared and off the hook tender and tasty. The vodka martinis were great, and served with ice crystals the way I like them. Tricia, our server, was very friendly and attentive. The ambiance was great, and the booths were extremely large, and allowed my wife and I to sit side by side.

    We were excited to go to this restaurant, but were left disappointed with the food. My husband had the sea bass and I had halibut....both were dry. The mashed potatoes seemed like they were left in water too long. We did like the salad bar, but no exciting ingredients on it. My husband said clam chowder was good. We had iced teas, no appetizers or dessert and our bill was $100! All for mediocre food. Service was attentive, but was not excellent. Maybe there was a lack of connection with us....The pretzel roll was the best part. Maybe we should have ordered steaks; but a quality steakhouse should have quality fish! The server did say that Bernie does frequent there!

    Went to make a reservation on OpenTable at two days out, no good times were available. Checked back morning of, and suddenly the whole calendar opened up. I'm left to wonder if there were mass cancellations or if they just save space for their slot VIPs. Pluses for: Free parking. A walk through the casino. Plenty of people watching. The restaurant hostess stand appeared to be in chaos. When it became obvious no one greeted us, the manager came up and intervened. We diverted to the bar for drinks. The bar looked classy and stylish, the seats have a pigskin finish as well as the menus. Nice touch for a football themed restaurant. Sadly, the entire bar area needed a good sweeping, there was crumbs all over the floor. Missing was a bar cocktail menu. Three months open and the bartenders are still waiting for one. So I ask about signature drinks--nothing. The response was that they are a full service bar and can make anything. One thing they apparently can't make is a good wine menu. Honestly, this was largely a gas station selection of lower quality wines. Hence why a typical bottle was only $25. We checked back in to get a table as the hostess stand didn't call anyone out, nor did they have pagers. We could have easily been forgotten at the bar. Our table was in the middle of the restaurant. Not the greatest location, but there was at least a little space between tables. The server introduced herself, but seemed cold and disengaged. Maybe having a bad day, or just didn't want to be there. I'm not asking for an entertainer, or a therapist, but some personality wouldn't hurt. Back to when I first sat down, I noticed that the napkin was ripped. I alerted the hostess and she went to grab another. In poor form she threw it at a waiter like a Bernie pass to Webster Slaughter. My wife was more ticked than I was, noting that someone had to manually fold the napkin and still had the nerve to put it out for dinner service. Dinner service appeared to be like a football play on TV being run in slow motion replay. No sense of urgency with anything, other than at the end trying to get rid of us. Kosar's menu is small. Your basic cuts of steak, 4-5 seafood dishes, very basic apps and a list of sides. They offered bread, but neglected to give us pretzel bread, we only got the sesame roll. So I had to ask for pretzel bread. Very inconsistent. We ordered a bottle of wine for the table, they delivered a chiller, but the wine bottle itself was stored warm. Kosar's food was a big disappointment. Their pretzel bread was soaked in butter, unmanageable with hands. Forced to use a fork, the rib eye steak was poorly seasoned, devoid of taste, just not a good cut of meat. I felt robbed. Their fries were completely inedible. Covered in seasoning so much so that they'd burn the tongue on impact. The manager was nice enough to remove the fries from the bill. Dessert was redeeming, but it takes a lot of work to mess up sweets. For the guy coming here on a casino comp that dresses in blue jeans and a T-shirt treating a napkin as a bib (I saw two fancy this style) this has to be amazing. Much better than the strip steaks for $4 at their local bar. For all others this is the Dawg Pound of fine dining. Casino steakhouses in this country usually have a reputation for fine dining--lower the expectations at Kosar's and you'll be fine.

    We stopped last week to try out the steakhouse inside Hard Rock Rocksino and were immediately seated. I decided to go with the "19" a 14oz new york strip steak named after the famous Browns quarterback. The steak was cooked properly but had a weird sauce it was cooked in that took away from the flavor of the steak. However it was a great cut of meat. For dessert we tried the creme brulee. It was a large portion and seemed to have the sugar crystalized at the time of order. It is however a very pricey meal and a loud restaurant if you're sitting near the entrance due to the rocksino, which you wouldn't expect in a high end restaurant.

    Great meal, friendly service, price was well below what we thought. Had two meals, two appetizers, two sides, a bottle of wine, a beer and split a desert. $162. We thought we'd be at $200 easy. It's not a super quiet dinner, but you are in a Rocksino. Great spot for our anniversary. My steelers fan wife even liked the Browns decor.

    My Mom, husband and myself had a great dinner on Friday, December 27th. Our server Brad was very attentive. We enjoyed the salad bar it had leaf lettuce with several toppings, cole slaw, pasta salad, brussel sprout salad, beef barley soup and fried dough with apple butter- this was a $6 add on to each entree and totally worth it. We loved the pretzel bread served at the table with the trio of butters including mustard butter and caper butter. I had the scallops and the other two entrees were filet and ribeye- these were all very good. We ordered sides of potato gratin which was excellent and the 5 cheese mac which was dry and disappointing. We tried three desserts; Creme brûlée (very tasty and huge in portion), cheesecake (only okay according to our cheesecake connoisseur and rather small) and the beignets with three dipping sauces (enough to share). This restaurant is definitely worth visiting- best to request a booth table as the diners at the freestanding tables looked close to their neighbors. Good job Hard Rock and Bernie Kosar on this restaurant.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Kosar's last night. From the minute we were greeted by the hostess and manager (loved them), our experience was top notch. We were early so we had a seat at the bar. The bartenders were incredibly nice and personable. Our drinks were served quickly and were excellent. The dinner menu had a very nice selection of steaks, seafood, and side dishes. Dinner was excellent. Our steaks were cooked to perfection. They were quality cuts of meat, fresh and incredibly flavorful. We ordered two sides, one macaroni and cheese and one lobster mac and cheese. Both were very very good. Our server, Brad, was personable, professional and very nice. He was on top of everything, making sure that our cocktails were served quickly, wine was at the table, and meals were served hot. Brad did an excellent job timing our entire dinner and he made our dining experience especially pleasurable. In addition, before anyone complains about the cost of the side dishes or the menu prices, I have dined at hundreds of restaurants, and Kosar's is a quality restaurant for the money. It is not cheap, but it is not unreasonable. If you want a fine dining experience, coupled with quality food and service, make a reservation at Kosar's. Congratulations Bernie for a fine restaurant and be sure to give your team a special thank you from a very satisfied group of four! Thanks to you all!!!

    My wife and I visited for my birthday on April 2, 2014. The food itself was amazing. The service is a little on the slow side but isn't so bad that we wouldn't be back. We ordered the bacon wrapped scallops and the sausage platter for apps. The scallops were cooked perfectly but $13 for 2 scallop is a little pricey. The sausages were amazing as well but yet again $9 for 3 half pieces of sausage is little pricey. Many people have mentioned how wonderful the salad bar is but I'm not sure what they saw in it. It's a very small salad bar, that's it. Of course I'm from Wooster, OH originally and know what a good soup and salad bar looks like since we frequented the Barn Restaurant(the Barn has a salad bar that is literally 3-4 times as big as Kosar's, for that matter the Buffet at the casino has a better salad bar). The soup was amazing though I must admit. I normally do not really care for mushrooms but the only soup was wild mushroom bisque and it was very flavorful. My wife had the prime rib and I had the swordfish. Both were cooked perfectly and seasoned well. Overall it was a good experience and we will return.
