Our Story

The newer, fully-renovated Risers

Riser Tavern on the Links is the sister location to the original Risers on Western Reserve Road — and regulars are blunt about it: the food and service here are a step up. A chef who, as one guest put it, “has her heart in it,” kind owners, and a big, beautiful bar with TVs placed for every game.

“We will definitely be back.”

The most common line in the reviews. Here's why.

The NY strip with the blue cheese crust was cooked to perfection. We only waited approximately 20 mins on a Friday and sat at the bar. The atmosphere was casual and relaxed, the music the right volume. Started with an espresso martini and the pretzel appetizer — both very good. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back.

Finding a 5 star restaurant these days is dang near impossible but this was the best dinner I've had in years. Emily took care of us on a really busy Saturday night and she was phenomenal. Drinks (especially the Holiday Margarita), the crab Rangoon dip and the pretzel, and the chicken dinners, beef poutine and prime rib — cooked to perfection. We will most certainly be back. Literally 10/10 from start to finish with very reasonable pricing.

I had a great experience at Riser Tavern! The atmosphere was welcoming, laid-back, and perfect for a night out — clean, comfortable, and just the right mix of lively and relaxed. The asparagus was absolutely amazing. Amber was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. We'll definitely be back!

JJoseph Trosky

Sriracha chicken sandwich was the best I've had. My GF and I have a list of 20 chicken sandwiches that we rate and this is #1. Tender, huge, flavorful, no garbage parts in the whole thing. Immaculate breading.

Very good food here. The atmosphere was fantastic right on the golf course. The bar is big and has so much space, and the TVs are located in perfect places to view any sporting event you can think of. Went to the comedy show after a fantastic dinner — the food was OUTSTANDING and Tammy Pescatelli was great. A must visit. #supportlocalbusiness

This place saved our terrible “parents night out.” We finally had our first night out without kids in years. Megan was our bartender — welcoming, and she explained the menus and drinks. A great margarita and a cold beer turned the whole night around. We will definitely be back!

MMeadow Bricker

One of my favorite places to eat — the chef is amazing and has her heart in it, and the owners were very kind. Burgers are to die for and the Crab Rangoon Dip is unreal. Ever-changing menu that flows with the season. I also attended a wedding here and it was a dream event space. 11/10!

TTara Salazar

If there was an option for a 6th star this place would get it. Food was excellent (especially the pretzel — 20/10 recommend), staff was very friendly and personable, and there's a nice view from the balcony. Would definitely recommend.
