50 Best American Restaurants near Willowick

“My first visit was a resounding success! I ordered the fish sandwich and fries along with an order of soul rolls. The fish was delicious and I was really full from it, but I had to bite into one of the soul rolls. Before I knew it, I had ate half of it and I knew I was full already. It was just so delicious that I couldn’t stop taking bites. Everything was prepared fresh and I didn’t wait long either. I definitely recommend them and will be back myself.“

“Incredible!!! Forno catered my wedding and we had requested Mediterranean food. The first tasting was amazing and delicious but the actual wedding day was next level! My family members are still raving about how tasty and elegant the food was. We are still craving the orzo ?. Whatever your vision is, Forno will fulfill it!!!!“

“Bar tender was awesome“

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

“I've been going here for years, since before I was in high school (I'm in my early 40's). The service is always good, food is good. Prices are great, especially compared to other breakfast places. I was initially worried when I heard that Marc Glassman bought it but so far it's been steady.“

“Had an amazing dinner this Friday night. Lynn was fantastic. We have enough from each dinner for 2 or more meals. Heve not been there for a very long time. Excited to go back soon“

“We bombarded the Solon location with a large party ( more than 10) and when I tell you everything from the initial greeting until we bid farewell was AMAZING!!! The food was PHENOMENAL and our server Ty… HE DID THAT! The staff prepared each meal perfectly and not one of us had any complaints!! Thank you all for being so accommodating! And Mr. King ( the manager) he was totally hands on as well as I think her name was Renee another manager . We will so be back!!!“

“Elysia was an amazing and kind waitress! She was efficient and had a great personality.“

“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.“

“I love eating at Gateway diner. It’s always a friendly experience. It feels like Home there. The staff is so kind that atmosphere is so warm. It’s got that true diner experience that you don’t often get anymore plus the pancakes slap.“

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

“Excellent food!“

“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“

“I’ve been coming here for YEARSSS. The best mocha hands down.“

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

“This is a place to get a meal with immediate service from coming in the door. Excellent presentation of cocktails and beverages. Waitress give options for meals during all orders. Always checking if needed anything. Exit had very nice message leaving“

“Great food and great shakes“

“This was my first visit to Campola's.
Al had taken my reservation and also welcomed us warmly when our party of five arrived. Turns out that he also made our food and helped to serve it with smiles. Our table on the patio was set and ready for us when we arrived, and water was brought immediately without asking, as were extra napkins. Our waitress was attentive and pleasant. Each of us chose a different type of food, and all of us thought that what we had was delicious...from the pepperoni roll appetizer, to pizza, to a cheesesteak sandwich, to pasta dishes, and cannoli for dessert. One friend gave me a taste of one of her meatballs, and it was so tender and tasty...I think I'll have to come back for a pasta dish with those meatballs! When we were nearing the end of our meal, a very nice gentleman arrived and sang and played nice songs on guitar. He was not too loud so that we could still socialize together. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable evening. Thank you, Campola's!“

“Nice patio area. Reasonable prices and large menu selection.“

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

“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 .“

“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.“

“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.“

“This is the best bar ever“

“the Burek is amazing! I love the cheesecake they have.“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“OMG excellent chicken Alfredo & my grilled chicken salad was the bomb!! Whomever the cook is....LIKES no LOVES his job. Everything was neat, and boxed nicely. Got 2 dressings with my salad DIDNT EVDN HAVE TO ASK.Will be back , for the food for CERTAIN!!!“

“Best empanadas I've ever had! We keep coming back because the staff is amazing. If something is on the specials board, it is worth a try! I have not had a bad meal at Chelo's!!!“

“Great food and MILKSHAKES!“

“Wonderful serving ! Larenzo was a wonderful server, thanks for all your help !!“

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

“Such an amazing restaurant! Craig, our bartender was so engaging and kept us laughing all afternoon! He also told us so many cool tidbits about the restaurant (e.g., the custom made chandelier in the background of my pic weighs 1,900 pounds and made out of metal nuts, ya know, like nuts and bolts, and is titled “The World is Nuts”). Now, let’s talk menu! The food is so delicious and the menu has so many options! The food is all freshly prepared, no frozen pre-packaged ANYTHING here! You can’t go wrong, especially at happy hour! LOL!!! Just go, already!!! You’ll thank me later!!!“

“Enjoyed listening to Forecasts“

“This is such a hidden gem at the mall! Omg, I love the fries. They are carnival style and seasoned well. First time, I got the Chicago dog and second time, I got the one with pimento cheese. Is this place super cheap? Nope. They're making homemade fries though and I feel like the hot dogs are pretty tasty! My husband loves their smash burger too!“

“Nice atmosphere and friendly staff!“

“I’m new to the area and the serving staff is very friendly and helpful. Had meatball sub which was very good. They make their own hoagie rolls. Salad was crisp and fresh. Breaded chicken wings crunchy and delicious (hot sauce and blue cheese)“

“Great breakfast. Be sure to get their App, deals will arrive. Their $5 take homes are always welcome on busy days. If you are there for a late lunch or dinner try their super large hamburger or pork chops. As a plus the wife loves going through the store looking for deals.“

“First time here and we were very impressed!! Not familiar with area but my husband and I were spending the morning with our son and his significant other at Patterson’s Farm. SO glad we chose Rise & Dine for our breakfast/lunch! The food was absolutely amazing and the service we received from Maddie was just as good!! Whenever we happen to be in the area we will definitely stop back!“

“Fantastic lunch with a great friend! couldn't decide between a couple items so the waitress suggested their Toofer - basically a soup and sandwich. I got the Seafood Bisque cup and a half Ruben sandwich. Both tasted great and waitress was spot on (there when we needed her and not there when we didn't need her). I'll definitely go back and try other menu options! RECOMMEND!“

“Wow!! Just wow!!!
Our friends who are regulars here invited us to try this place.
We had the octopus appetizer and it was a perfect 10+
Cannot even explain how tender and amazing it is!
We were told they have the best steak you will ever eat.
Yes it is the best steak ever!! Portion is crazy huge and every bite tender and delicious.
I had the Said boullebais and it is amazing. The broth is piping hot. The lobster, scallops, shrimp, clams and muscles were perfectly cooked. Huge!! Enough to share.
Cocktails were spot on.
My friend had asparagus soup and had me try it . Yes it was beyond terrific.
Now I have to go back to have it. The chef visited our table and he was so welcoming.
Our server Rose was perfect and so knowledgeable.
I highly recommend this place
There are at least another dozen items on the vast menu we must try.“
