"Location Location Location Having journeyed via public transportation, observing the scenic route, I stumbled across Hodge 's restaurant. As I wish this was a figurative statement, this restaurant has a location that COULD be ideal, however it [the restaurant] is shoved into a seemingly alleyway with parking access. The problem with this you ask? Unless you are on the street (Euclid) this is someplace easily forgettable based solely on it 's location. Limited Menu Yet Well Deserved Stopping in around late lunch time, the service was to be expected; spot on with phenomenal recommendations and great assistance with everything we needed. The lunchbox special consisted of a trio; pork tenderloin half sandwich, chicken noodle soup (alt tomato soup), and house salad (I opted for sautéd brusselsprouts). Unfortunately the chicken noodle tasted like heavily watered down chicken stock. More TLC would have proven this soup to be top notch instead of the route taken to produce this. The brusselsprouts were very fresh, and through their process of cooking, can taste that their [back of house] takes tremendous care of the kitchen for cleanliness and respect of all ingredients within their stock. The sandwich came with caramelized onions, cherry pepper aioli, lettuce, tomato (I believe I opted out of this addition). The sandwich was excellent complemented with the cherry aioli, creating a vibrant allure of both texture and taste. We concluded this meal with a cremé brulé. Excuse my lack of current knowledge as of right now for an amateur status, but I 've heard that outside of America, the solidified sugar should be extremely difficult to break through, thus making this inauthentic. THIS SHOULD NOT BE A DETERRENT! The taste is not overpowering, captivating the original feel of what the classic dessert should taste like. So Why Are They Closing?!?! Sadly, I have received news that the restaurant is closing as of December 21st. So Why are we closing? I can 't disclose the reason presented to me as this doesn 't seem to hinder the performance to such a degree, but as first stated: location is truly everything. Having not even seeing the storefront nor any sign for this establishment until I tripped over a scooter, I would not have remembered to provide a proper review of this restaurant. Should a second opportunity provide, I would strongly recommend this owner a redemption shot for success. If you 've an chance to visit before closure I strongly recommend it at least for lunch. As always, I will need to return for a second opinion of the restaurant and to define the night life they provide. Thank you as always and I can 't wait to taste with you later."
