Every item on the Brunch was creative, delicious and prepared exquisitely from the extremely fresh lobster tail to the berry tarts!

Brunch at The Gilmore was wonderful! The menu had a nice variety with large portions and a great price. From the amazing food, jazz music, decor, and friendliness of the staff…the entire experience was relaxing. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stopped in for breakfast today. Couldn’t be more happy with my visit. The food was amazing. The service and atmosphere were perfect. I even expected the pricing to be higher. Will definitely return soon!

Went for my birthday. Love the ambience. The smooth jazz music was loud enough to be heard but low enough for us to hear each other. Our server Kim was delightful. She was attentive and knowledgeable. My friend and I are foodies and we found the food to be excellent. I had the lobster roll with truffle fries. She had the fish cakes. We left happy and planning for next visit to bring friends and family who enjoy decadent food in a peaceful and unhurried ambience.

First visit there. We live locally and wanted a nice restaurant with good atmosphere that wasn’t a long drive to Lakewood or Cleveland. Excellent service and the food was delicious. Our fillet was cooked perfectly with Oscar style sauce that was tasty. Will be trying their brunch as well on a Sunday. Give them a try, it’s nice to have fine dining choices in Lorain.

The wife and I certainly enjoyed dining at this lovely establishment. I recommend The Gilmore Cheeseburger which provides an invitingly sweet-ish taste of an American classic. Umm, delectable! My wife ordered one of the Top Sirloin Filet with herb garlic on the side. My drink was the Peach Manhattan was splendidly delicious.We delighted in the ambience of the Gilmore and appreciated that Royce Lasion, co-owner, visited our table to check and chat with us.Matt was our waiter; he personable, engaging and humorous. He made our experience more enjoyable. Another employee, Nate stopped by often to keep our water topped off.The City of Lorain deserves a fine dining establishment like; I feel this is a good start. This restaurant is certainly not Applebee’s (trust me, I like Applebee’s!) and the menu prices reflect that. On certain occasions, we want to partake in fine dining.We will be back to sit down and enjoy a meal here when we are back in town for visits.Parking: Parking is located in the Ariel Hotel parking lot so there’s plenty of spaces.Wheelchair accessibility: ADA compliant roll up ramps.

We had been before and had a great experience (good food, fast service) so when we heard about the valentines special we made reservations. Boy were we wrong to go back. We got there at 645 for a 7 pm reservation, seated and we did not get our food for over 2 hours. It took an hour to get the salads. We just had them box up the food because of how late it was getting. I get waiting 45 min to an hour but 2 hours is ridiculous. The waitress knew nothing about the menu as she usually worked a different shift, OK, I kind of get that...but should have looked at it some first.Then, to top that off, the lobster tasted off.While our first experience was good, the second WAAAAY offset it. We spent $400 to just get food to go. I could have done that at home for cheaper. Not sure we will go back, sadly. We were hoping to have a good date spot locally.

Ask for eggs over easy was given a busted and fried yoke.
The French martini and the Lychee were my favs. The service was phenomenal, quality of the food matched the price. Such a gem for Lorain, well done Gilmores!Parking: Hotel parking garage attached, free parking
