Enjoyed a nice evening of Guarino’s delicious, authentic Italian cuisine with friends on a Saturday night. The ambiance is so warm and cozy that you are mentally transported to another time and to an Old World family home. Guess this is why Guarino’s is the oldest restaurant in Cleveland. The only thing better than the cozy dining room is the inviting patio—once weather permits. Live music is featured frequently including the phenomenal lounge band that pleasantly enhanced our evening meal in the adjacent dining room. For any evening visit, you should consider the valet ($8) across the street (or allow extra time to search and walk) as Cleveland’s Little Italy is often difficult to park in.
