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

“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!“

“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!!!“

“Yesterday was a Sunday, I worked all day. On top of it, my Jeep had a flat and it was late on a Sunday so no shops were open. I hadn't had the chance to go grocery shopping because I worked overtime last week because its Birthday Season/Holiday Season. So decided to doordash dinner because i was starving. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with Mayo on it. First there was no bacon. How do you forget to put bacon on a bacon cheeseburger? The burger was blackened burnt.Then there was no Mayo on it, and usually that wouldn't bother me cuz it's a condiment that is usually in most people's fridges, except mine, because I hadn't gone grocery shopping. I can't eat a dry burger. Needless to say I went to bed hungry last night. May I add I work in healthcare and we're in an active covid outbreak. I was so exhausted and work has been so stressful, that this whole ordeal literally made me cry tears. I felt defeated and I was looking forward to chowing down that burger. The most upsetting part was how much my food cost, and the prices are hiked on doordash. I can't wrap my head around how careless the cook obviously was.“

“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“

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

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

“We had a great dinner at Austin Steakhouse, and our server Bernie made the experience even better. He was attentive, friendly, and gave excellent recommendations. The food was delicious, and Bernie’s service truly stood out—we’ll definitely be back!“

“Excellent food!“

“Awesome! Came to support local! One of the rare places that has GOOD biscuits and gravy, lol. Very very nice relaxed place.“

“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.“

“Great food and great shakes“

“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.“

“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“

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

“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 .“

“This is the best bar ever“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“Great food and MILKSHAKES!“

“Very good food!Affordable meals! Yesterday, we dined in Willoughby, OH and we had an amazing server and very nice cashier!“

“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!!!“

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

“Nice atmosphere and friendly staff!“

“Recently, I visited The Original Hotdog Factory with a group of friends. There were menu options for any dietary needs. I ordered the Factory Loaded Fries! They would best be described as a chili dog over fries. The chili was absolutely delicious and the serving size was enough for 2! I highly recommend this restaurant for the variety of food, numerous options, serving size, flavor, and freshness! You won’t be disappointed. I can’t wait to visit again.?

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is conveniently located in the food court at Great Lakes Mall. Fortunately, the tables can be moved to accommodate individuals who require the use of wheelchairs or other equipment.“

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

“I’m driving cross-country from California to New Hampshire and I feel so lucky that I stumbled upon this absolute gem! The restaurant’s atmosphere is lovely, everyone was incredibly welcoming, and the food was delicious! I definitely will make a point of stopping back in when I’m in town again!“

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

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

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

“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!!!“

“We work 2-3 days a week in Euclid Ohio area. We love the food and love the staff. Great place to eat. Highly recommend Mmuldoon’s“

“Had the filet this time, and coming from someone who is very particular about their meat it was cooked a perfect med-rare! The quality of the meat for both our dishes was phenomenal (rack of lamb and filet), such that it puts some steakhouses to shame! The quality of the tuna in our appetizer was also top notch. They always have a nice selection of specials here from appetizers to dessert. Needless to say, this place lives up to its name! Waitress forgot to put in our salad course, but worked out for the best because we got to have two desserts 🥳“

“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!“

“We had the best day watching The Buckeyes at The Wild Goose! One of our sons lives in Willoughby & the other son & his wife live in Shaker Heights. Fav spot for our kids but our first time. The pizzas, onion rings & buffalo dip were amazing! Outstanding selection of beers. Loved the atmosphere. Charming but lots of TVs as well. Can’t say enough about the staff!!! Outstanding service & so friendly! Cant wait to come back!“

“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)“

“Love this place the spicy garlic parm wings are fantastic and we come here often for prime rib and burgers. Its always really good food. The wait time for service can vary depending on when you go but they are usually pretty on top of things and take really good care of their regulars.“
