“Great find! Would never have guessed a gem in a little strip mall. Super clean and tastefully decorated. (I am bias to Roosters however) Top notch service! The place was hopping and the staff stayed on top of it. Chefs super friendly and thanked us for coming. Food was promptly brought out hot, coffee cup was never empty. Great selection of breakfast items, we wanted to try everything! Reasonably priced! Highly recommend! Please support local establishments like The Sleepy Rooster!“

“I got the 1/2 pound bacon BLT and the Chicken Tenders with French toast. Lots of quality food, and fast, friendly service. I will recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants quality at a fair price. For a small sit down/carry out restaurant, I thought the place was super clean and new looking with white quartz counters and white wall tiles. Looks very new inside.“

“The atmosphere and food are amazing. Will definitely be back.“

“We held a wedding rehearsal dinner there on June 27th. It was a party of 16 in The Porch area. Our waiter, Neil, was extraordinary, the food and drink was exceptional. My only regret is that we live 10 hours away so going back and sampling all the other menu choices is problematic. Highly recommend!“

“I went here twice in the three days I was visiting. Everything was great. The place has an old fashioned diner vibe. Food was freshly made and no matter how busy they were, and they were definitely busy, the food came out so fast! The food was very good for breakfast. I recommend the pancakes and western omelette! Not cash only anymore!“

“Excellent food...interesting atmosphere and great service provided by Donte!!!“

“SMASH BURGER ✅ CHICKEN FINGERS ✅ STEVE’s TACO✅ FRIES ✅ Great food, cute patio for a quick bite! Tasty, informal dining and friendly service!“

“Our very first visit to Mad Jacks. Denise, our server, was wonderful! Fun, engaging and made an amazing Manhattan. We enjoyed the goat cheese salad and spare rib sandwich on a pretzel bun and perfectly cooked fries. Overall just a fun lunch experience. We will be back!“

“Karen is a hoot! We had an amazing dinner and even better service. 10/10 recommend!“

“It was our first time visiting this establishment and we will definitely return. The food (crab cake, blackened snapper, and lobster ravioli w/shrimp) all flavorful with nice portion size. The drinks (old fashion, blackberry peach margarita and blood orange side car) made by Ashley were exactly how they needed to be. Our server Ebony was great, very attentive and gave honest recommendations. We were even gifted an extra meal that we were thankful for.“

“The courtyard has been a staple in the lives of Brecksville residents for YEARSSSS“

“We had a large party and were seated in a private room. The space was comfortable and well-designed, with adjustable lighting options (on, off, or dim) and small lamps on each table that created a cozy atmosphere. Water was already set out when we arrived, and the menus were neatly placed on the plates.

The service was excellent. Multiple staff members checked in throughout the meal, making sure everything was perfect. They cleared used plates and silverware between courses and explained how the dining experience worked, noting that sides would be served “family style” to share.

I ordered the 6 oz filet, which came with bone marrow and was perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. For appetizers, several of us had the French onion soup and fried artichokes, both of which were absolutely delicious. For sides, we enjoyed steak fries, whipped potatoes, dauphinois potatoes (my favorite), and grilled asparagus. Every dish was exceptional.

Overall, the entire experience was exceptional — from the atmosphere and service to the incredible food. I’ll definitely be coming back in the future.“

“Our experience Friday at Crumb and Spigot was as usual - excellent! Our wait staff was great. He was attentive, informative and fun, without being annoying. The food was awesome - we had the marinara (or maybe the spinach) pizza and the dry-aged meatballs. Both were excellent. Service was great - minimal wait for drinks and food - couldn't ask for better. Crumb and Spigot has been consistently great every time we've gone. Great place and in our neighborhood!“

“Best food and service around!“

“Had dinner last night at the bar. The bartenders were excellent as usual and the food was great. Thanks!“

“Ordered the seafood Philly for lunch. It was delicious!! The cashier...which i think its the owner...was very polite and professional. The only thing is the fries were made my cholesterol rise up. Not their fault..I should've asked for a sprinkle of salt. This may be my next lunch spot. Thanks guys...keep up the good work“

“The food and service were excellent. Always there asking if you needed anything. Service incredible and great group of people coming there to get great food!“

“Food is great, we found this on google, best find! Breakfast is reasonably priced, service is good.“

“We reviewed Hello Bistro in Beachwood OH, well JRK did because Joe was too busy "working"...... Tried the Tex Mex burger – looked great, but it was tiny and bland. I was expecting flavor fireworks, but it was more like a flavor fizzle. The avocado was the highlight though! The fries were fresh and tasty, and the house-made ranch? Chef’s kiss. As for the chocolate chip cookie… I thought it was fresh, but it was more like a sad, store-bought rock. Tex Mex Burger 5.5 Hand cut fries 6.1 House Made Ranch 8.2 Chocolate Chip Cookie 2.0“

“Caesar Salad with Fire Cracker Shrimp was delicious!!!“

“The staff was amazing! My 17 (!) friends and family members and I had a blast for my bachelorette party. Our pre- dinner activity finished a whole hour and a half before our reservation and they made it work to help me stay stress free for the evening. Aimee, our server, was so sweet and ensured my group of gals were taken care of the entire time. I highly recommend!“

“Excellent food!“

“This is truly great place. We will be back soon.“

“When I mention Academy Tavern I mention “Cheers,” where every one knows your name. The establishment provides great food, great pricing, personable and timely bar staff, and conversation with anyone and everyone. Owner, Jessica’s smile and giggles are heart warming, and Owner Chris makes sure every woman is walked to her car by a man in the restaurant if not himself. If this isn’t community, I don’t know what is.“

“Great local bar to watch football“

“Edit:NVM, they tried to reinvent the wheel...
Now the food is atrocious and costs more than it should.

This place isn't reinventing the wheel but sometimes you just want a place where you know the food is consistent and tastes the same every time you order it.“

“Lovely food (Bacon Cheeseburger with Preffered Fries is my go-to), friendly servers, quick service. I've been eating there since my late teens ^_^. Highly recommended!“

“Great club sandwhich and very friendly owenership. Just make the trip and you wont be dissapointed.“

“I talked my husband into going. We went on Friday evening, we sat at the bar, service was great. As we sat there I heard a saxophone with my back to the band. I asked my husband is that a sax I hear. He said yes. The band was good. My husband said "this is going to be my new go to place". Nice crowd.“

“First time stopping by today and I'm glad I did! I loved the Polish girl boxed meal-hadn't had one in years! It was delicious! 😋 Friendly service in a tiny, quaint spot! ☺“

“If you haven't tried Adams, you're missing out this s.all little diner in Euclid has the tastes everyone desires . The food is awesome I had the everything omlette, just scrumptious super fast service only open from 7 to 2:30 pm . They serve lunch as well prices are great .“

“Amazing food every time you go ! Best chicken fingers ever !!“

“Thankfully they were open late because we needed somewhere moderately priced with decent food to take my brother out for a birthday dinner. The food was a B-, service could have definitely been better and the atmosphere was average. Drinks could improve and steaks ordered were reasonable. Would go back but more so thankful for the late hours!“

“The food was really good, the two gentleman that served us was awesome! I I just didn’t like that. They seated me in the bar area and it was my fiancé’s birthday and I also made reservations. We didn’t get the candle light or the heated patio, the romantic things so I was, unhappy about that.“

“Great food. A little on the noisy side. Popular spot.“

“A-MA-ZING 🤩🤩so many sleeping on this Cleveland gem 💎 literal artisans whipping up THE BEST wings, fries, shrimp. Hell! Even their baked potato is bomb! Moved to CLE from the dirty south and had the hardest time finding good food up here. Then I found Calypso's. They got the flavor, the spices, aaaaaaallll the sauce, and the sweetest employees. How such a small joint can be pushing out so much goodness is a wonder to me, and I loooove it!!!“

“Wow! What an absolutely wonderful place to celebrate our 25th anniversary! The staff was so kind, especially Michael and Genevieve!!!!! Loved talking with both of them! The food here is incredible and very creative. Every single thing on your plate serves a purpose to the overall taste. Superb wine selection as well! We also loved its overall ambience and elegance. Hope to return someday!!!“
