Hey fellow Clevelanders! Just wanted to give ya’ll a heads up in case you didn’t know…It’s RESTAURANT WEEK! (the past 3 years, I’ve always caught on too late!)
Taken from Cleveland.com: Downtown Cleveland Restaurant Week is back for its third year! From Monday, February 22nd through Saturday, February 27th, Restaurant Week diners can take advantage of amazing deals at over 45 of Downtown’s finest restaurants.
Check out the list of participating restaurants HERE!
Mike and I have reservations at XO on Friday – I can’t wait!
I’ve been there before for work, but Mike has never been, and out of all the menus, that was the one we could agree on the most!
While I’ve got fabulous Cleveland restaurants on the brain – I have to tell you something else I’m super psyched for – next Thursday, March 4th (*cough*MY BIRTHDAY!*cough*) I’ll be dining for my first time ever at Lola!!!!!! I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I am for that!
Last but not least, while we are talking Cleveland – I need to ask: Have you joined Alexa’s Facebook Fan page: Cleveland says “NO THANKS, Forbes Magazine”??? If not, please do so! Even if you aren’t a Clevelander – help this Cleveland sister out!

You’ll have a great time at XO. I really wanted to go to Lola again, but I think I’ll save it for my birthday this year – good idea! I think we finally decided on Johnny’s for this week, but who knows where we’ll end up Friday night!
