I recently had the pleasure of dining at ROOD Food and Pie, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance of the restaurant is beautiful, creating a welcoming atmosphere that sets the stage for a memorable meal. The real highlight, however, was the food. Chef Josh Erickson truly stands out as a one-of-a-kind culinary artist. Each dish was a testament to his creativity and skill. The octopus was a revelation—perfectly charred and bursting with flavor. The lamb meatballs were another standout, rich and flavorful, leaving you wanting more. I also had the bok choy salad, which might just be the best salad I've ever tasted; it was light yet satisfying, a perf...
My husband and I have dined at Rood for multiple occasions but this was the first time we decided to conduct a meeting with one of our clients in their establishment and it was truly a wonderful experience. This date in particular was to introduce a couple to one of dear friends who would be photographing their wedding day and I wanted to do so in a warm and welcoming atmosphere which describes Rood to a T!Our serve Cory was l truly delightful. I gave him a heads up about the purpose of our visit and reassured him that even if our clients didn’t want to eat, we would still be having dinner that night. From beginning to end he was thoughtful, checked in on us to make sure we were still doing...
If you are looking to explore culinary genius, try novel flavors, and bask in true culinary innovation that embodies the heart of Cleveland cuisine and that which makes the city a bona-fide food honeypot, then I would suggest taking an evening to visit Rood. In putting in the effort to traverse all that Rood has to offer from its inimitable pies to its thirst-quenching cocktails (that are far too easy to imbibe! to its fusion entrees, one will gain a truly unique food experience. Rood is a special establishment that provides excellent service and leaves one wanting more. Experience Rood.
So we had gone to Rood once before Covid, and hadn’t gone back because the food was just average. Last night, though, we decided to try it again since we knew the menu had changed and THE FOOD WAS FANTASTIC. The current chef is incredibly talented and has put together a phenomenal menu of a caliber we haven’t often found in Cleveland. The drinks are creative and the pies are just freaking delicious. Five stars all the way.

I’ve never in my life been to a Pie Bar until I visited Rood this place was absolutely incredible and the food was amazing I had crab cakes with grits and they were perfectly made I also had the crab pasta omggg so so delicious and from the Pie Bar I tried the peanut butter pie everything was so good a detailed to taste I really enjoyed my visit and will most definitely be returning
Two incredible meals here, easily one of my personal favorite meals in Cleveland. Initially had the Elk Tenderloin then the Hog Snapper. Everything you will taste here has been thought out to pleasure your palate (pairing taste combos and textures is a work of art). Caesar salad is a must try, so light and unique. PB pie is out of this world, the bartender doesn’t suck either.
Had an amazing experience. Rare to find a place with sensible prices, but incredible food and presentation. I personally loved the Brussels sprouts and Cajun Shrimp. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Shrimp and Grits, Charred Octopus
Each of us ordered a different pie. The Chocolate Tahini Custard was good. So was the Dark Chocolate Black Raspberry. But MY favorite was the Brown Butter Apple Praline. A La Mode of course !!!Food: 5/5

Very creative menu. They do some interesting twists on familiar dishes, like shrimp and grits. Nice bistro setting. Reasonable prices. We came because of the pies and we weren't disappointed.
