EDWINS It's been a turbulent five years since Nighttown owner Brendan Ring announced that he was "temporarily" closing the restaurant in March of 2020. Ring, of course, never did reopen the iconic jazz club; in 2021, the property was sold to the Red Restaurant Group. After $2 million worth of improvements and renovations, Nighttown reopened in late 2023, only to close for good just nine months later. Brandon Chrostowski saw an opportunity, one too good to pass up, as he decided to relocate his restaurants to Cleveland Heights. When they arrive -- or make reservations -- diners will have a choice between two different experiences, each with its own menu, price point and atmosphere. The main room is home to the fine-dining portion of EDWINS, while the smaller rooms, bars and patios is home to the more casual "brasserie" version of EDWINS. The "salon lounge," which is the small room connected to the main dining room, is open at 8 p.m. for cocktails and light bites.
