CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Two brothers accused of dining and dashing at Cleveland restaurants now face misdemeanor charges.

Matthew Gareau, 30, and Scott Gareau, 40, are each charged with defrauding a restaurant, a first degree misdemeanor, according to affidavits filed in Cleveland Municipal Court Friday.

While restaurateurs have alleged the men ripped off as many as six restaurants in a three-day span, the men are only charged in connection with a June 17 incident at Crop Bistro in Ohio City.

Owner Stephen Schimoler said the brothers ordered about $160 worth of food and drinks. Toward the end of the meal, the men got up and walked outside to have a smoke. They left without paying, Schimoler said in the affidavit.

Matthew Gareau was arrested June 19 at Johnny's Downtown in the Warehouse District, after manager David Flowers wrestled him to the ground. Flowers recognized Gareau from a photograph Schimoler posted on Facebook, and said Gareau was trying to leave Johnny's without paying.

Gareau was released three days later without charges.

A bartender at Red, the Steakhouse filed a police report after Matthew Gareau's arrest that said the brothers had come in for dinner the night before, ordered and consumed $284 worth of food and drinks and went outside to smoke. They never returned, the bartender said.

Schimoler told The Plain Dealer Publishing Co. that employees believe the men did the same thing at Bar Cento minutes before coming into Crop Bistro.

The men are scheduled to appear in court at 8:30 a.m. July 10.
