For my latest Metromix review, we headed back to 2182 Bistro in Brecksville. This wasn’t my first visit to the tiny French bistro and wine bar, but I have a feeling it will probably be my last.
It’s not that everything on the menu is disappointing, I have had a few good items. But for the most part, the food has just been so so, especially this last time (I had the gratin de macaroni which should have been outstanding based on description alone, but was instead a huge disappointment).
In addition, the service, while timely and attentive, has been rather unfriendly on each visit – almost as if they had much better things to do then work that night and let you know it.
I realize this place has a lot of fans. Maybe it’s a fluke and it really is a great establishment. But for us, it’s not worth the trip and after several attempts to like it, we’re done.

This restaurant may have the worst service in the whole of Cleveland. Not shocking that it's in uppity Brecksville, I think snooty people must really like other snooty people...location, location, location. Don't waste your money here, there are plenty of other quality Cleveland restaurants with good food, wine and SERVICE. I also have a high-tolerance for bad service, which is why I'm especially compelled to write this comment. Keep up the good (honest) blog.
