The Plum you are truly magnificent, I had an incredible experience here today. Great location, great ambiance. All menu items seemed delicious, I had General Tso's Fried Chicken and it was absolutely wonderful. The service here is great. Highly recommended this place any day.

Patio had very nice heaters and the service was good. Unfortunately the veggies were undercooked but the staff was understanding and took them off the bill for us.

Enjoyed the newly reopened patio last night. The food so incredible, the drinks were the best. I was so happy to have a nice safe dinner.

Just picked up such a great meal felt the need to give them a review. Had a little bit of everything: ribs, chicken, collards, eggplant/zucchini, couscous, potato salad. Everything was exceptional! Eggplant was a little undercooked but still delicious. Will definitely be back.

Menu is very unusual and you need to ask for more explanations. For example, we did not realize the tiger shrimp would not be fully cooked and be more of a raw "cured" dish. It is definitely not shrimp cocktail that you would expect. We never would have ordered it. And they graciously took it off the bill. The best part of the meal was the soup -- a wonderful French onion soup with plenty of gruyere cheese and a hearty flavored broth. A good sized portion too. Chicken sandwich which was not on the regular menu that night but they let us order it from the prix fixe menu. And that was fine but for the price it should have been amazing. In fact, for the price everything should have been as good as the soup, and it was so-so for the brussel sprouts and stuffed mushrooms. It could be a very expensive meal if you order full-sized entrees. We will not be going back -- but if you are experimental in your food choices, and like trendy stuff, then maybe this is a good choice for you.

Really enjoyed this spot, perfect for the area. Great interior and fun patio in the summer. Food is also fantastic, check it out and support local business!

Let's keep this one short and sweet: nobody in Cleveland does it better than The Plum. It's a beautiful, modern spot. It's sleek enough to go on a hot date, it's low key enough to go for Happy Hour snacks and cocktails. The front of house keeps it friendly, the back of house is always challenging themselves with new menu concepts, and the bartenders are going to keep you happy. If don't f--- with The Plum, you are f---ing up.

Not ideal. Food tasted fine. Service was fine. Food was overpriced and not what was expected. Earlier in the day, they posted a picture of, what I assumed, their pork chop and I decided I wanted to eat that for dinner. Went, ordered it and it came out as a average pork chop for $36. Nothing special. Just a chop. It tasted fine, but it was nothing close to what was posted. If I wanted a basic pork chop, I would have eaten at home as to not pay over 10x mark up. I asked the server why it was nothing like the post and she said "that's not the same thing". Oh yeah? Trust me.....I noticed.

Very friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Would say the food is a little too experimental - there is bone marrow in absolutely everything.

We came with a decent sized group for a birthday dinner. The restaurant and staff were highly accommodating- we actually ordered ahead of time from the menu so the food came seamlessly. We started with the house made seafood chips - the dipping sauce really made the chips stand out. We did splurge for the seafood tower w all the fixins - wow that is a lot of shellfish!! All the apps were amazing (we had bread and fat, mushroom, duck tartare, brussels, carrots). 7 bone chuck is perfect for the big party. I thought it was deliciously seasoned, the hubby thought it was a little too thin - I did not mind this personally. We saved the bones for born broth at home too! Unlike other reviewers, I thought the mix/match used plates was charming/darling and went well with the "house" feel that the decor conveys. All in all, amazing meal. It is on the pricy side but it's the perfect atmosphere for a celebratory or romantic dinner.

A really nice experience! The food is very original and it's a pleasure for me to taste different combinations of flavors. The ambiance is perfect: cozy and easy-going, never too loud. I will certainly go back and try new items form their peculiar menu!

Must visit restaurant for American Traditional food lovers. The Plum has an impressive collection of Fried and spicy foods. They have Vegan options and table reservation. Special foods include Creamed Spelt, Catfish Nuggets, Smoked Ohio Raised Pork Shank, etc.
