It was only back in March that we first discovered The RAIL in Canton<\/a>.\u00a0 We became immediate raving fans, and even more exciting was the prospect of them opening one in Strongsville, just minutes from our house. Well, the wait is over, and we got to preview the new Strongsville location for The RAIL<\/a> this past Saturday night.

The newest location for The RAIL<\/strong> is 17885 Southpark Center (on Royalton Road) in Strongsville, Ohio 44136. (Phone 440.783.1275)\u00a0 For those of you familiar with Southpark Mall,\u00a0 The RAIL is located in\u00a0the old Giant Eagle location.<\/p>\n

Their hours according to the website are:<\/p>\n

Monday\u2014Thursday: \u00a011am-12am
\nFriday & Saturday: \u00a011am-1am

The new Strongsville location differs considerably from the Canton location. Roll-up glass garage doors along the western side of the restaurant let in a considerable amount of fresh air for pleasant evening dining. Seating in this area is primarily picnic-table style with tables for four and heavy wooden\/steel benches. The western half of the bar also opens into this area, with probably 16 bar seats.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s an outside patio seating area with upholstered chairs or sofas that will hold another 16 people or so. A glass-beaded firepit is the central focus in this area.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]\n

Inside seating is broken up into three distinct areas.\u00a0 The eastern half of the bar area also has a number\u00a0of tables for four.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_image admin_label=”Image” src=”http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/160806-8510.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”off” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”left” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_image admin_label=”Image” src=”http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/160806-8568.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”off” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”left” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”east seating area” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]\n

Further east\u00a0yet, and the quietest location in the house, (don\u2019t worry, you won\u2019t be falling asleep here) is the dining area with padded booths. After having\u00a0drinks on the patio, we chose here to enjoy\u00a0dinner.<\/p>\n

Lastly, the front seating area, directly across from the hostess station, gives you a full window view of everyone coming and going, and is perfect for people watching.\u00a0 There\u2019s literally a seat for everyone, including high-chairs available for your little ones. There\u2019s even a special children\u2019s menu.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” header_font=”Boogaloo||||” header_text_color=”#ffffff” background_color=”#e09900″ use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” custom_margin=”0px||0px|” custom_padding=”25px||25px|” text_line_height=”2.4em” header_font_size=”41px”]\n

Thought you\u2019d never ask.\u00a0 Well, for brevity\u2019s sake, one work describes it \u2013 Fantabulous!<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_image admin_label=”Image” src=”http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/160806-8557.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”off” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”left” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Burgers” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]\n

The RAIL is known for locally sourcing their meats and as much other food as possible, depending on the season. You can\u2019t beat fresh Ohio beef in my book, so, you know the burgers are going to be fantastic. Our choices for dinner?\u00a0 The Perfectly Naked Burger and the 7th<\/span>\u00a0Heaven Burger \u2013 medium rare. Juicy and oh, so delicious. Ask for extra napkins.<\/p>\n

The other thing that makes their burgers and sandwiches so good is the selection of over a dozen different combinations in addition to the possibility of building each completely to your liking. Specialty toppings include; thick-cut Ohio bacon, fried local eggs, fresh avocado, truffle butter, and more.<\/p>\n

Need a special order?\u00a0 They do have gluten free and vegan options. Their salads sound amazing as well. That\u2019s the plan for our next visit.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_image admin_label=”Image” src=”http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/160806-8550.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”off” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”left” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Beers” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]\n

Thirsty?\u00a0 I hope so, because they have some of the greatest handcrafted beverages around, as well as selections of Ohio beers on draft<\/a> and your favorite bottled brews. \u00a0My choice for a hot summer night was a delicious Double Cherry Spiked Lemonade.<\/p>\n

Also of note, every day they have drink specials from 11 a.m. until 9 p.m<\/a>. for $3 each. They change every day, but, we are talking about some popular drinks like Margaritas, Long Island Ice Teas, Bloody Mary\u2019s and more.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]\n

If you haven\u2019t tried one of their four locations, (Fairlawn, Canton, North Olmsted and Strongsville) you really need to give one a try.\u00a0 You\u2019ll be delighted you did.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_image admin_label=”Image” src=”http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/RAIL2.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”off” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”left” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
