“Best pizza in Northeast Ohio!”

“The pizza was wonderful and the service with a smile was even better.”

“Thank you Sweeter than honeycomb for the beautiful cookies and smash cake for my granddaughters first birthday party. The cookies were amazing in how they looked and tasted. The smash cake was perfect and that also must have been delicious because my granddaughter dug right in! We definitely will be back!”

“Truly the Pinnacle of handmade artisan coffee right in our backyard in Northeast Ohio. Everything Paul roasts is single origin and fair trade and is absolutely spectacular. While we were measuring out coffee at his storefront he explained nearly every aspect of the roasting process and about how him using wood fire makes for the best type of roasting possible. Him and I nerded out a bit even on the chemistry side because he uses wood fire specifically because natural gas has a sulfur burning compound in it that adds strange flavors to freshly roasted coffee.
He had nearly every type of single origin coffee from all around the world in One singular location and is roasting the majority of them on a weekly or semi-weekly basis.
Is storefront prices from roasting it himself and buying it in bulk are better the most anything you're going to find online.
The man knows his stuff and is basically a single person operation, support him at all costs. We need more coffee obsessed people like him ☕☕☕”

“This is my go to bar!! It has a very cheers/hometown feel. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. The food is a bit above bar food, with an owner that makes half or more from home made family recipes so it turns out stellar!!!”

“Get the pizza and the cappucino. Always a blessing when I ask for a slice of pepperoni and she gives me the one that's clearly the biggest. Also, the pizza do be fresh at around 9 in the morning (and maybe later, they probably make it more than once in a day?) but it isn't very fresh in the afternoon.”

“The menu offers a great variety of appetizers, salads, and entrees. Service and staff are efficient, professional, courteous, and just plain on top of their roles. It is a great atmosphere and extremely well managed! Great job, all who participated in serving a party of 16 on Sunday!”

“Absolutely a must-visit—do NOT skip this gem! We were passing through Ohio on our way back to Buffalo and looking for a lunch spot near I-90 that wasn’t fast food. A quick search led me to Sausalito’s in Kirkland, and after checking out the surprisingly diverse menu and great reviews, I told the family, “We’ve got to try this place.” Sausalito’s did not disappoint! The kielbasa and pierogi were served with caramelized onions, paprikash sauce, and sour cream—my son declared them the best pierogis he’s ever had. And we’re from Buffalo, where fresh pierogi are a staple! He said these were “hands down better.” My daughter and I both ordered the butter chicken (marinated chicken in a buttery tomato sauce with basmati rice and garlic naan), and it was absolutely AMAZING. The naan tasted homemade and was the perfect complement. My other daughter and husband tried bites and agreed with us completely. My husband went with the short rib pappardelle (slow-roasted short rib with mushrooms, broccoli, arugula, parmesan, in a creamy red wine sauce). The short rib was incredibly tender—fall-off-the-fork good—and the pasta was cooked to perfection. Our other daughter had the shrimp coconut curry penne, which came in a creamy coconut red curry sauce. She finished every bite and said it had the perfect amount of heat. My husband snagged a taste and said the shrimp were perfectly done and the flavors beautifully balanced. Each dish was so thoughtfully prepared—every bite felt like it was made with care. The owners are warm, hardworking, and clearly passionate about creating a great experience for every guest. You don’t see this level of heart and hospitality often these days. If they ever expand to Buffalo, we’d be their first customers. This would instantly become one of our favorite spots to eat out.”

“was my first visit to the Kirtland crowleys and could say i loved my last Italian hero sammich!! the paintings and decor was a hit with my fam.. and our server Amy was great!!”

“Ice cream was amazing!! Honestly best i ever had! But the people there kept just starring us, like if they had never seen a Mexican before, i felt uncomfortable while eating my ice cream😔 didnt feel comfortable at all”

“I am an out-of-towner visiting family. I am amazed at how good the pizza and calzones are! Huge portions, fantastic flavor, generous with toppings, and great service! I thought it was pricy until I got my food; WELL WORTH IT! Delivery was early, food was HOT. 10 out of 10 for me!”

“We just had a wonderful dinner at Noosa's Bistro. Kellie, our server, was very pleasant & efficient. My husband and I shared a wonderful beet salad -- the dressing is superb, and plenty for both of us. I enjoyed the sea scallops on zucchini fritter appetizer-- enough dinner for me! My husband had the smallest size of prime rib, and still brought half of it home. This is the first time we've been to the Bistro. We frequented the old Noosa Restaurant on Rte 20 near 306 years ago. I was delighted to see that the atmosphere and meal at the Bistro was just as nice. We'll be back!”

“amazing cookies they are my favorite

Kid-friendliness: super simple and cute inside

Wheelchair accessibility: Very open space”

“We went to Nonna Ts for the first time this weekend. From the moment you step into this charming restaurant, you’re greeted by the excellent staff and amazing aroma of the best Italian food I’ve had since moving to Ohio. The drinks, food and atmosphere is top notch and being greeted by Nonna T was the perfect addition to our evening. We will definitely be back and make eating at Nonna T’s a regular event.”

“Tiffany was a wonderfully attentive server. The food was good Atmosphere amazingly comfortable”

“Great place to bring the family.”

“We started coming when the Mentor store first opened we’ve been here every weekend sense. The people and food keep us coming back”

“Very clean, staff was super friendly and accommodating. Cute decor and the little birthday celebration was so cute! We'll be back!”

“Ordered lunch for a large group of people and everything was ready on time and accurate and EVERYONE loved the Smoothies and the food! Can’t rave about them enough! They’re the BEST!”

“Excellent food and drinks! Service is always amazing.”

“The owners, staff, food, and drinks are all so awesome!”

“I became acquainted with Mission BBQ when they had a food truck at the Chardon Maple Festival several years ago. The pulled pork sandwich with the coleslaw is my favorite. Everything my family and I have tried here has been incredible. And we love the atmosphere as well. I can’t recommend this place enough! If you love BBQ and food for the soul, you’ll love Mission BBQ.”

“I love this location but at certain times of the day. During the day the customer service is on point!!! But evening / night it’s trash. The younger employees be needing home training before they get a job because their customer service sucks. But anywho during the day, I love this location and the cookies!”

“An unassuming exterior hides a sleek and modern interior. Smiles from employees. Food was fantastic and we couldn't have been happier.”

“Expensive but yummy.
Update 4/3/25 - Your cookies would be great with a scoop of Handel's Ice Cream on top. It's a good thing that they are next door.”

“The birria beef tacos are very delicious. Large portions, variety of beer and margaritas. Really good salsa options for chips and salsa or as a topping. I have gone twice and have been pleased both times.”

“It is exactly what it says it is. A great dive bar. Friendly, nicely lit for a bar. great food, friendly patrons, great prices, did I mention great food.”

“First time! Excited! Heard nothing but compliments. The restaurant had many open seats. We enter and a person of upper management looked up and punched in something and then directed the server. The server, under direction took us to the worst place in the restaurant. My prayer was that it wasn’t because we were a family of color. I tried hard to disregard the thought as we were directed to sit outside the kitchen door. :—/. I was getting away from the kitchen. That was the last place I wanted to celebrate our special occasion. I asked for a different place in the restaurant that was housing one other visible couple. She was very happy to oblige us. When a restaurant is full, I can understand…. But this was far from the case. The server was 5STAR ! Food 5STAR ! I will definitely try it again with hopes that it was a mistake on the management part. My hopes…”

“Haven’t been to JT’s Diner for about two years. Thought we’d give it a try as we remembered it being good at their previous location. We were very disappointed in our breakfasts. My crisp bacon was burnt to a crisp with burnt taste upon first bite. Our home fries used to be excellent “sliced” potato’s, but yesterday came as mush and the scrambled eggs were not even cut….just folded like an omelet. Coffee was good and hot, as in the past. For $20.53 I expected better. Don’t think I would return.”

“The best pizza in Ohio!”
