"I wrote a glowing review of this Golf Course restaurant just a year ago. I’ve since used it only for a quick “at the turn” eatery until last night. July 15th. I’m sorry to say that the 5 star plus rating of last year is merely a 3 for dining today. For starters the menu on the web site does not exist. Gone are the fine entrees from a year ago. No sirloin, short ribs, scallops, BBQ Ribs. Selections are just about what you’ll find in your neighborhood sports bar. The difference between the two are the number of tv screens you’ll be forced to contend with. Burgers are now a broader selection item on the menu. Gone, too, are the great Lobster Tots and in their place are garlicky fried potato cubes with a dash of parmigiana cheese. My wife had the fish and chips and got three pieces of frozen breaded cod that looked like they came from the near by Costco freezer section. Not at all fresh fish. I had chicken parmigiana which was one piece of chicken fried to near perfect shoe leather quality and linguine with a mild sauce that came in a small oval serving dish. Definitely more a lunch size portion in any of the near by quality restaurants in Westlake or even Elyria. Prices for most entrees were in the $18-$24 range. One perk was my tangeray and tonic came in a 10 once drinking glass and the bar tender was generous in his pour. Definitely not the high quality of just 11 months ago (dinner wise) and I won’t be back for dinner or for a quick stop while playing a round of golf. Don’t know why the restaurant has gone this route and my questions couldn’t be answered by my friendly and capable server , Rick, nor from the hostess. It’s a shame the restaurant industry has fallen off as much as it has. I’ll go out of my way to visit a good establishment with decent atmosphere. Such as Burntwood Tavern on Columbia Rd. In North Olmsted. It will be a while before we give Black River Tavern another try . David B Avon OH"

Me and my wife really enjoyed Black River Tavern in the past for brunch. He our server was very conscientious and polite. We went there for a relaxing brunch unfortunately the brunch menu has changed tremendously for the worst. I ordered a breakfast sandwich sausage was extremely undercooked the egg extremely overcooked. Our server accommodated us the best he could another server joined in to get our order corrected. My wife’s food was ok at best . You go to a meal at an establishment for a pleasant experience. Black river tavern underperformed for our experience. Not certain we will return.
