There’s no signage, let alone neon. To identify the building housing Heritage Steak & Whiskey, walk to the front door and read what awaits you inside this swanky restaurant at Eton Chagrin Boulevard in Woodmere.
Beneath the eatery’s heraldic, elegant logo at 28869 Chagrin Boulevard is a framed box listing specialty cocktails, salads, appetizers, side dishes and entrées. One cocktail likely to catch your eye is the Bank Statement, a $17 vodka-based concoction also featuring fetching aperitifs. The establishment carries more than 400 whiskies, its most expensive a $350 shot of Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve 20 Year.
The steaks – if Doug Petkovic’s restaurant has a theme, it’s steaks – include a 40-ounce Porterhouse for two, served tableside, for $165. And while steak predominates, there are other offerings including salmon, duck and vegan options. This is not a destination for the faint of appetite, taste or pocketbook.
Long-time restaurateur Petkovic has partnered with celebrity chef Michael Symon for 40 years and works out of Mabel’s BBQ, a Symon-identified restaurant on East 4th Street in downtown Cleveland. Heritage Steak & Whiskey is a Petkovic solo venture. It’s also a point of pride.
Petkovic and his landlords, Bob and Ezra Stark, consider Heritage Steak & Whiskey a perfect fit for Eton Chagrin Boulevard – a “lifestyle destination” owned by Stark Enterprises in Cleveland.
