10 Best Diners in Cleveland

“Everything is homemade. The salads are huge and a delicious mixture of fresh mixed greens and other items depending on what type of salad you choose. The mashed potatoes and gravy are both homemade and delicious. They have breakfast and lunch all day.It doesn't matter what you feel like eating, they will cook it at any time. Clean, good customer service and a friendly staff!“

“Came for a birthday party and can't say I'd be back. There were several problems. First off, I waited 40 minutes for a coke. Seems like everyone else got their alcohol though which also had a very long wait. The server Cici was awful to say the least. She couldn't get anything right. My husband ordered the rib dinner and i had the two meats and two sides (brisket and ribs). The ribs were very good, I would definitely order them again if I ever came back. But the brisket was absolutely awful. The toughest, driest piece of meat I've ever bitten, tasteless with no bark whatsoever. They were out of rib tips which I was honestly disappointed about but the ribs were bomb. They were moist yet tender cooked to perfection. The macaroni and cheese *and believe me I don't eat everybody's* was really really good. The greens had too much vinegar but were still enjoyable. The baked beans (Fire whoever made them immediately) literally took a can of bushes and added green peppers and onion. I ordered my 2 year old a smoked wing appetizer and some fries. WE GOT MY 2 YEAR OLDS FOOD AS WE WERE PACKING UP OURS, He literally ate my whole plate because he had no food. I ordered the garlic parm on the side and of course when they brought his wings it was covered in garlic parm. The fries were so full of salt they weren't edible but I got over that quickly. Still being very very generous I told the waitress I would be paying for my friend for his birthday. She didn't just charge my card for my best friends meal, but for everyone else at the table almost 300$. How do you make that kind of mistake. I believe it was intentional. After that I just ran out of there. The service however bad, still didn't overshadow that the food was really good. I just wouldn't order the brisket agian and definitely tell them no salt on your fries“

“Place serves good 'ol American Breakfast. The food was made fast and it tasted delicious. Besides the fact they are seeking for more help, the service was prompt and food was made as requested. Do you recall the sitcom "CHEERs"? That famous bar where "Everybody knows your name". Walking in here reminded me of that. Felt like it was the go-to spot for locals. When I sat down I heard people talking from table to table and booth seat to booth seat. All were talking about family and work and catching each other up on what's new with them. I was visiting from out of town for a week and this place turned out to be my go-to. Felt as if I knew everyone all my life. Definitely a must-visit spot if you're from out of town.“

“What can I say it was simply phenomenal I freaking loved it I end up getting the classic combo with the pancakes mix berries and I end up getting the City Diner Burger and it was so good I really enjoyed it so much the fries were awesome with the burger oh man I haven't had fries like that and a long time also the cook he did the most excellent job cooking the food and the waitress was simply very attentive always came for my coffee asked me if I needed anything else not to mention she was very easy on the eyes her name is Vera and she is very beautiful and a very very excellent waitress...“

“First time here (previously Sal's Diner), ordered carry out by phone. Large parking area in back. Small old school diner inside, can see the cook working feverishly in front of the counter seats. Maybe another 8 booths for seating. This is owned by the previous owners of Steve's 24hr Diner on Biddulph Road, that recently closed. This is about the same, open 24 hours and breakfast all day. The employees were pleasant and my order was perfect. I really enjoy their breakfast here and the famous chili dogs. For 2 breakfasts and 4 chili dogs came out to $22. You really can't beat that price anywhere. Give this place a try you won't be disappointed.“

“I wish I would have looked at my food before I left because I would have told the cook personally how amazing the food looked but when I tasted it I was in shock best loaded fries ice had in a long time will definitely be going back and the cook was so nice she had great customer service place felt like home“

“I'm originally from Cleveland, my sister and her family live up the street from George's Kitchen and I have to say I brag about George's Kitchen all the way here in Dallas. I absolutely make sure I stop by for the amazing delicious meals and the service iis great! Prices in these times can't be beat! I'm a fan for life!!!!“

“All of their breakfast items are delicious! Huge portions! Friendly, fast service! I have been here many times through the years and it’s always excellent! I have brought friends and family here for the first time who fell in love with it!“

“A small intimate space, Charlie's is the real deal. An authentic gem that still delivers a great diner experience, good breakfast food with cheerful service. The corn beef hash is simply excellent - maybe the best in years of diners. The eggs and sausage are standard fare delivered quickly and with a hugely friendly touch. Honestly, at the counter I felt like I had been coming for years, they were so nice. I'd come back anytime - and I think there are a few who do so every day. It is quirky and credible but it is also great, with plenty of parking and even if you have to take the highway briefly as we did from downtown... it was ten minutes and worth every moment of the drive - and that would be true if it was twice as far. Drive and pat yourself on the back for doing it right.“

“OMG!!! MY GOODNESS GRACES!!!The service I got here today was so immaculate I mean it was so effortlessly casual I really felt at home. Of course the food was delicious as usual. I hade the mozzarella sticks with the nice stretchy cheese ? and the scrumptious fried chicken wings! ? After all that I sat and enjoyed the ambience with a glass of the pinot noir.( I forget the brand but it was a light dry and very airy ?) but over all I wanna give flowers to Angela and Barbara for taking care of me and keeping me ever so comfortable. ❤️??“
