Nemo Grille: truly fine dining in Avon
Located at the intersection of Detroit and French Creek Roads in the heart of Avon, Nemo Grille is a pillar of fine dining on Cleveland’s west side. Combining country charm with an upscale feel, Nemo Grille presents minimal décor, lots of candlelight and an intimate dinner service that will leave you speechless.
While it boasts an extensive menu of “globally inspired American cuisine”, Nemo Grille offers more than just dinner. Its thoughtful, beautiful plating techniques are both functional and artistic.
To start your meal, try a bowl of Nemo Grille’s signature lobster bisque, which features tender chunks of lobster, paprika and crème fraiche, or the seared Ahi tuna with sundried tomato, wasabi potato salad and soy reduction.
Grilled flatbreads such as the Margareta with roasted tomatoes, basil, provolone and mozzarella and barbecued chicken with red peppers, bacon, onions and mozzarella are also available.
For your main course, the Muscovy duck breast with caramelized onion mashed potatoes, grilled asparagus and black mission fig marsala sauce, or the seared sea scallops with black tiger shrimp, seasonal vegetables and a white wine sauce make excellent choices.
If you are looking for a meatier meal, the restaurant has a large steak selection that includes prime rib, filet mignon, New York Strip and Angus sirloin with espresso balsamic sauce, cracked peppercorn demi cream, horseradish chive butter or roasted shallot port wine reduction.
Italian lovers, be sure to try the famous Nemo lasagna, featuring Bolognese sauce, four fresh cheeses and lots of freshly cut basil.
A full-service bar with a variety of tantalizing martinis, like the chocolate raspberry, which features Stoli Razz and a chocolate-lined glass, and the Hypno-tini, which features cherry vodka, Hypnotiq, pineapple juice and blue curacau, is located near the entrance. A wide selection of imported wines and beers are also featured.
Business attire is requested and reservations are appreciated, especially on weekends when Nemo Grille is especially busy.
