Around the corner from Jekyll’s Kitchen is the new West End Bistro (79 West St., 440.247.3460), a sharp little eatery that replaced Village Exchange. Like the Exchange, West End is operated by Gamekeeper's Hospitality, the folks behind nearby Gamekeeper’s Tavern and 87 West. Management retooled the short-lived restaurant from a casual salad and sandwich shop to a more ambitious American bistro. A snug little bar was installed in the petite dining room, pushing more diners either up to the loft or out onto the charming patio. The menu is built around wine-friendly starters and small plates. Diners can share a cheese board ($14), relish platter ($8), or goat cheese pizza ($10). Small plates, which range from $10 to $18, include seared scallops, panko-crusted wild salmon, and steamed mussels. There is a small but attractive beer and wine list, including house red and white pours for just $5.
