The atmosphere is quiet and romantic, the staff is highly professional, and the food is exceptional! The drinks have an interesting twist on them that I enjoyed. It's just another reason for Cleveland to be celebrated as a great food city.

Great atmosphere and great mixed drinks. Will definitely return for dinner and drinks.

Excellent service and the food and drinks were also great. Perfect friend night or date night to walk around the museum on Wednesday or Friday evenings and then have some upscale drinks and food after. It's such a joy to have well-crafted properly chilled cocktails. I also really like the "taste the art" rotating menu. all the food we had was exceptional ! our thanks to the chef and staff!

Wow!!! We are Wednesday at noon at the Provenance restaurant and our food, service and whole experience was delightful! Highly recommend!

Just the right spot for a special drink, or special occasion. Great on a regular day too.

We visited the newly reopened restaurant and had two wonderful experiences! First, at the bar, they made us a great blackberry mocktail. After the exhibit, we sat and had a lamb burger, which was delicious
