“What I got was not extraordinary breakfast food but really good, basic, wholesome. Fresh multigrain bread, homemade jam, eggs w/pico de gallo and herbs. Some really interesting breakfast bowls also apparently available! Amazing fresh baked cookies/treats and good coffee.“
“Cool coffee shop with nice vibe. Coffee was very good, I had americano. Did not try any of the specialty drinks or food. Service was very friendly and quick. There is a pretty large seating area inside and a couple chairs outside when it's nicer. Will definitely add this into my coffee shop rotation.“
“I've had boba at countless places, both on the west coast and here in Ohio. When I moved to Ohio, I was sad that there didn't seem to be a lot of good boba places. This was during Covid. When I found Mooncat shortly after they opened, I was very happy!And, I was even happier to find out their boba is great! I haven't had a drink that I haven't liked yet, and the boba is cooked properly. They also have seasonal drinks, which are always tempting.Their food is also quite good, but I haven't tried very many things yet. I will say: their sugar biscuits are DELICIOUS. Give them a shot!I will be continuing to frequent this shop in the future (much to my wallet and waistline's dismay...)“
“I tried Roaming Biscuit in Hingetown for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and immediately fell in love with it! I tried their OG and it was exactly what I needed. I went back a few days later for their BBQ Chicken Biscuit, and my mind was blown. Paired with a Rising Star Coffee from across the street, and I was in heaven! Highly recommend, and hope they continue their great work. Excited to go back!“
“We went around 1:30pm on March7th. Food was very good. Had wine and cocktails. Service was outstanding. Female server and she was probably the best server I have ever had. I would only recommend that there were more appetizers. Bread was outstanding as well as the croissants. Vegetarian dishes were very good as well as the Broccoli melt. We were able to find parking on the street.“
“Heart of Gold has so far been the best bite to eat in Cleveland since I moved here from the South. The atmosphere is trendy but laid back with good lighting and a cute small bar. I really loved the menu design, it is very obvious that even the smallest details of this restaurant have been thought out.The overall menu has an interesting and cohesive direction that incorporates Southern and Italian food - which to me was very reminiscent of the kind of fare you'd find in a lunch spot in New Orleans - especially their Tiki drinks on offer.The service was wonderful; everyone was kind, helpful, and seemed excited about the food.We chose the Roman, the fried chicken sandwich, the waffle fries, and the onion rings with the house made ranch.The Roman is a solid sandwich where you can taste every part mentioned in the menu description. I thought all of the ingredients played well together and reminded me a bit of a muffeletta.The waffle fries were very good - I thought the everything seasoning was a very smart choice (the ridges in the fries hold the seasoning in place) and were perfect for dipping. The fry crispiness to fluffiness ratio was to me a perfect balance. My only complaint is that they tasted a little too much of oil.The onion rings were very surprising to me. They are to this date the best onion rings I've ever had. The breading was perfectly crispy and the onion stayed in place upon biting it - which is typically my main issue with onion rings. The sauce drizzled on top paired well with the sweetness with the onion, and the horsey sauce added the right amount of heat.The chicken sandwich was overall a good chicken sandwich. The bread and the maggi mayo punch above their weight and those alone make this a stand out. The chicken was crispy and perfectly cooked. I personally think the chicken itself could use a little more flavor, but again that is only my taste.I can't wait to return to this restaurant and try the other items on the menu. Don't miss out on this place.“
“This place was AWESOME! Great service and the employees were top- notch!! Friendly and looking out for the customers! We don't live near the area, but my husband and I , just yesterday. We're thinking we might have to make a special trip to eat here again!!“
“Amazing plant-based offering for breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Incredible food at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend!Vegetarian options: Fully plant-based menu.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and all vegan options.Parking: Plenty of spots in relatively small strip mall. Free parking.“
“this place is a true hidden gem! the food is always delicious, flavorful, and presented beautifully. you will not regret a stop in to Sabor Miami Cafe!! the owner is so friendly and personable. you can literally taste the love in her cooking!“

“Had a chance to get here again, and loaded up on food and drink, this time for lunch. Tried the onion soup they had as a special, a croissant, and the roast beef / onion baguette. Best onion soup I’ve ever had, including that at French restaurants. It had some herbs in it that made it exceptionally good. Their baguette sandwich was excellent: made with roast beef & with the onions cooked similar to that in the soup special. Finished off the food fest with the chocolate mousse and a cappuccino. The people working there are exceptionally pleasant and the cafe has a comfortable, relaxing coffee house vibe. The Judith is also open into evening hours to enjoy their food along with wine and cocktails West Siders are fortunate to have this place, Juneberry, and Patron Saint to enjoy some well-made food by talented people. Spend your dough at these places to keep them open for us to enjoy for a long time.One note: The Judith has seating at the counter and tables for (guessing) 25 visitors. You might wanna call ahead to make sure your group can get a seat. I read some knucklehead’s poor review earlier complaining she felt rushed when she tried to camp out for, guessing, hours, spending peanuts. C’mon folks, this is a business - not a freakin’ library. If you’re short on cash, wanna park yourself for hours for free, then go to the freakin’ library. Don’t turn a cafe into your office or study room away from home; be mindful of the fact the owners need to make the income to keep the business open.“
“One of Cleveland's own coffee shops, and one of its very best locations. Plenty of space as well as little nooks, if you are early or fortunate enough to get one. If you have never been, definitely put it on your list, you won't be regretful in the slightest! If you need a pick me up, try the single origin espresso.“
“Stop by Lekko, order an Ube Latte, and enjoy this bright space with lots of greenery and beautiful decor. This is one of my favorite coffee shops in Cleveland whether it is cold or sunny out. The decor and how relaxing it is so worth it. Some of the art on the wall is for sale and by local artists, so it is always changing. Done with your coffee adventures? Get up and take a little walk by the Hangars just a couple of blocks away or grab a bite at Amba. I now worry I won't find a spot to sit the next time I visit...“
“We went for breakfast pastries and were almost overwhelmed with the delicious looking options. Luckily for us everything we got was exceptional, I don’t think you can make a wrong choice. After much deliberation the highlight for us was the sausage and cheese croissant! Definitely stop here, we will be back next time we’re in town!“
“This place was really cool. There were tons of options to choose from for all kinds of levels of gamers. They have classics like monopoly and more complex games like scythe or gloomhaven. There's a great list of menu options for food or drinks while you.play your games. We didn't use them but the staff offered to suggest games a few times which would be great if you want to try something new or aren't sure what you'd like. Overall it was a great experience after my first time and I will definitely be coming back. The only thing I would say that could be negative is the noise and the wait times since it was very busy (though we went on a Saturday evening).Parking: Parking was interesting since the the cafe is in Cleveland. Most of it is street parking or some paid lots. If you park further away, there is definitely free street parking in residential areas. Or you can pay to park closer on the street or in a lot.“
“A great small cafe to pick up that super customized delicious coffee and a delectable sweet treat to get you day started. Great for quick stops or stay in store and enjoy the vibe while you write that paper or chat with friends.Full details:This is a really awesome gem of a cafe with super delicious coffees and amazing quality pastries at good prices. The vibe is pretty chill and you can definitely relax and have an awesome convo with friends or family with relaxing music in the background.Or better, just relax in a corner and focus on that project or paper you need to write, altho if you want absolute quiet you will need to bring headphones or be really good at blocking out the hustle in the background.Staff are amazing and friendly. The parking is obviously going to be tough given the location, but with a little 5 min walk you will be fine. The atmosphere is pretty nice, but to be honest I'd like it a little brighter or more upbeat interior vibe. However if you're going for a nice "gypsy mix" of colors and decor, this is definitely a winner.All in all, I'd recommend a visit for the coffees and pastries at the very least, will not dissapoint and the menu variety will probably have you returning for a lot more.Vegetarian options: Coffees are obviously ok but as for pastries am not confidentDietary restrictions: Will need to clarify with barista or cashier before ordering. They are very friendly and awesome!Parking: As with anything downtown, parking can be tough.Kid-friendliness: Pretty kid friendly“
“Our first time to Dahlia Coffee and we loved meeting the owner and her super friendly staff! Service was great, coffee is amazing and there is an assortment of tasty bites. Located in the Pivot art center is a plus, enjoyed our coffee then explored the art center. We definitely will be back!“
“Best cafe I’ve ever been to. Like a second home, very productive atmosphere and at the same time it’s enjoyable everytime. Food is great, plenty vegan options, drinks have huge variety and like the seamoss lemonade and mushroom latte- some stuff they reign supreme. Staff is the best of any place I’ve been to- have to say. The Owner is a very respectable lady, she looks out for the community. Highly recommended.“
“It's definitely a go-to place to relax, read a good book, grab coffee or tea, a good Danish, and more. Mike was so helpful with all of my questions. He had an available booster seat so my son and I could dine in comfortably. The tea and food were very delicious. I had a salmon, spinach, mushrooms, and cheese omelet. All the flavors married well. The potatoes had just the right crunch. The French toast was just as tasteful. Unskilled you very much.P.S. try the " Breakfast in Paris" tea! ?Kid-friendliness: Host had a sanitary booster for my son to use. Thank you ?“
“Kafela is a St. Clair-Superior neighborhood gem! This breakfast and lunch cafe gives off such a positive vibe from the moment you walk in. I was greeted not only by a friendly face at the counter, but also many large green plants and sunlight filling the space. All of the menu items are named after locations and nods to sunny Los Angles. I got the Berry Much L.A. smoothie which was delish. I also got the Lavender Love Spell drink, which was lemonade with a lavendar butterfly tea that sparkled! For my meal, I got the chicken ceasar wrap with a side of sweet potato fries. The wrap was good. Classic caesar, although the chicken was well seasoned and I liked that the wrap was partially toasted. The sweet potato fries were delicious. When I inquired about the seasoning on the fries, I was told that they made their own sunshine blend to sprinkle on top. I couldn't place the flavors, but it was amazing! The star of my meal was the deep fried oreos. I wanted to leave with something sweet and these oreos did not disappoint! They had a chocolate drizzle and powdered sugar on top and came with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream. Fried oreos are usually only good when they're hot, I ate these cold all throughout the day and enjoyed every bite. The best part of Kafela is seeing how much of a gathering space it's become for people in the neighborhood. There were so many members of the community coming in throughout the time I was there to pick up a smoothie, order lunch, or just say hello and chat with the owner or other patrons. It truly felt like a place you could call home and I loved that.“
“I called last minute with a request for a 20 person business meeting. Not only was the food ready on time but the owner made sure I didn't over order to spend more than I had to. The portions were very healthy (enough for everyone with some people to have food take home) and everyone loved it !!! Both vegan and non vegan raved about how good the veggie wraps and grilled pepper steak rice were. Vitamin Kandie is the best.“
“Anna is so cool that I am going to make a point to come back to this resturant whenever I am in Cleveland. The food is killer too, she hand-inspected each avocado before picking the best one for my toast. The food is fresh and made by someone who puts her money where her mouth is. Other trendy insincere health food joints WISH they had what she had. Ask her about her rabbits.“
“Small place that packs a lot of great stuff! We need more dry-bars like Verbena around the CLE metro area. Amazing, delicious alcohol free drinks, can take to go, including bottles and canned drinks, great selection all in one place. Food options were very good, including Vegan. Service was great, and the owner is very nice and helpful.Vegetarian options: Vegan options as well!“
“Very family oriented. The fod is great and the service phenomenal. Great place to sit back and enjoy a calm relaxing experience alone or with loved ones. This was me and my family's second time here. We've tried The chef salad, humus and veggie tray, cheese sandwich, Sausage egg and cheese mcmuffin, blueberry and banana nut muffins, chocolate chip cookies, cinnamon bun, root beer float, and mango smoothie. Last but not least the local wine they have for sale taste great to me. The vegan and apple pie wine is my favorite. To taste at the time is $5. You won't be disappointed.“
“Beautiful atmosphere friendly staff great coffee and hot coco. The Johnnys habanero honey scrone delicious!!!Parking: Next to resident parking so look out for towing restrictions.Kid-friendliness: Seen at lot of moms with their babies so definitely kid and pet friendly“
“Love the vibe, very earthy wholistic feel. No complaints! Great service, fast and friendly. Easy walk from Orangetheory workouts. Lots of options from smoothies, açaí bowls, coffees and more! My only complaint - the menu is on TV's black background in purple writing with lights hanging in front for a glare. It's very hard to read. I can't wait to go back and try more!“
“Love working with Luna Bakery! While the pastries, food, and coffee are amazing - the staff is so on top of it. They are responsive & detail orientated. Within minutes of emailing them to plan a catering order for the week of, Kristen was able to help me finalize an order and had it confirmed (I feel like I didn’t even need to do anything)! I have worked with previous bakeries in the area and there are always hiccups due to the large orders. I will continue to use Luna for all my orders for their quality but the hospitality of their staff!“
“Personally I loved everything about the dining experience. I'm a cheapskate though, so I'll probably only eat here on special occasions.That said, the variety is organized, so one doesn't get overwhelmed with the book of dinner choices. Lunch is limited to a four sided menu.The food is prepared on order, and arrives quickly. I had planned to take home half of my substantial serving of Pad Thai, but it tasted so good I ate everything but the lime peel!The restaurant is clean and bright, and it has a steady clientele. I didn't use the bathroom so I can't evaluate.Parking is ample, free, and uncomplicated.I look forward to my next visit.Vegetarian options: There is an adequate vegetarian selection, but i couldn't guarantee the kitchen has separate cooking pots or grills.“

“One of my favorite places to relax and get some work done! Great food, great service, great drinks! Plenty of outlets to charge my outlet and lots of space for privacy. Highly recommend this place as a work space, or just a place to get a coffee with a friend and chat.“
“This is a nice spot to go grab a cup of joe and they have a nice selection of desserts too. I like the jumbo chocolate chip cookies and the brownies they offer. Atmosphere was very clean and the service is very friendly. I visited in May. It was nice to relax outside and enjoy a cool breeze while eating my cookies.“
“The food tastes really good, the coffee is also okay, but the portions are very small for the prices!You shouldn't go there if you're really hungry.Vegetarian options: There are a relatively large number of dishes that are suitable for vegetarians, with lots of fresh fruit and vegetables.“
“One of the best pastries I’ve ever had was the amaretto lobster tail, the filling was perfect and the pastry had a fantastic crunch to it. The cappuccino and coffee was also pretty good, but getting served took quite a while. The pizza with red sauce and sausage was quite good but the artichoke pizza tasted more like a flatbread and was mostly bread with no sauce. Overall really good pastries!“
“The food was hot and nice,staff was kind as well. I got the all American burger it was fresh so that was great. My friend got the day special of the chicken sandwich flat and the bacon burger. All was made well . The decor was plain but over all the place was clean and nice.“
“Stopped in for a girls night out with my bff and her cousin. I had no idea what to expect because from the outside it just looks like your average neighborhood bar. When I stepped in I was shocked. I had no idea it would be so spacious. I found out they have a cigar lounge and a cute little VIP area. I'm definitely adding this bar to my list of places to go back to. Also, I kept hearing great reviews about the food. I am proud of myself for not going over my budget and sticking with a 2 drink max. Which was way below my budget. I'll update after I taste the food.“
“Small restaurant with a limited, but tasty and reasonably priced menu with a spattering of unique offerings. Perfect for a quick bite & some wine. I hear their ribs are great, but we weren't hungry enough for that. AJ was very helpful recommending something light & quick (they were closing in 40 minutes) for dinner. He suggested an Italian wine which my husband said was fantastic. Food was made to order with attentive service. They have a large wine menu and an amazing selection of wines by the bottle in the adjoining room. We will come back on a Saturday for their rib special.“
“So to rebut Steve's review, I will say this - EVERY service-oriented organization is having a rough time hiring and retaining GREAT staff. It's the sign of the times we are in. You cannot hold that against anyone or any organization. It is what it is. LaRonda works very hard to attract and hire people who can be trainable, teachable, and coachable in order to prepare them for a future in this industry. It's up to the employee to take the bait and work to better themselves. Every person I've encountered since their opening in 2021 has been professional, courteous and respectful to customers.In terms of food quality - TOP NOTCH! When your food is made FRESH and TO ORDER, you cannot expect to get it in a hurry, although there are many grab-and-go options to choose from if you cannot wait. It's also FIRST COME - FIRST SERVE. You cannot play leap frog and jump the line when there are online and call-ahead orders that need to be filled. If you're pressed for time, go somewhere else. It's sad that this has to be said, but it's horrible to slam a small-minority-owned business for no reason.My experience has been the best! Never had an issue. Food is always the best. Smoothies are delicious. Always courteous and professional. Produce are fresh. Variety to choose from. You can't ask for anything better. I am a daily patron and love the vibe and atmosphere. I will continue to support and encourage others to as well. Be persuaded by your own mind and opinion.“
“Stone Oven is a diamond in the ruff. Stone Oven has the BEST homemade Chicken Noodle soup I have ever tasted and the customer service is so accommodating and friendly. All of the staff are to be commended for you excellent work ethics and food presentation. I highly recommend Stone Oven if you want home cooked, flavorful and delicious food. I am a fan.“
“Food was very fresh waffles look so awesome sausages very good I'm have to take my family of 5 back there and eat ? also they did not take no shortcuts on the food everything taste just how it's supposed to taste The cook was very friendly and funny the servers are very nice the atmosphere is awesome very clean place to eat I “
“Place it’s cool, they have chess to play while enjoying your coffee, service was good. Food not so good, I ordered a bagel and added avocado but the avocado tasted as it was rotten. Would come back for chocolate or hot cocoa but no for breakfast.“
“The Cleveland Zoo is one of my all time favorite places to go! We love going during a festival to see the transformations and experiences the atmosphere throughout the seasons and time of day. We have attended the Asian Lantern festival, Boo at the zoo, and winter fest this year.. I highly encourage you all to stop by the zoo and if you have little one definitely check out the treehouse and petting area!“
“We enjoy coming here from time to time. In general, we’ve had good service, and the food has always been very tasty and reasonably priced. Parking is along the streets, but can be very close by. In nice weather, there is an outside patio area for seating under an awning, like many cafés in France. There are two main dining areas inside. A smaller, cafe like area and through a door ways a larger, more decorative dining room. The dishes we had were not available in the selection list on Google. Those were le Champions (mushrooms) Bourguignon and the Crepe d’Ratatouille (vegetable stew) in a buckwheat crepe. The latter has cheese, though I’m fairly sure they would prepare it without cheese if asked/needed. Our server was efficient and courteous. Getting older now and being later evening, I opted for decaf coffee. Not the best; it may be the worst thing I’ve ever had there, but is the exception overall.Vegetarian options: I prefer vegetarian and they do have a few options available, especially if you eat cheese. I believe they could make modifications, such as no cheese, is asked.“
“You know those places you drive by for years and never noticed. This is what this place was for me. I got a Q breakfast sandwich. It was great. 2 thumbs up. Ate that thang on the way to go support the latest caca fiesta of spider man related properties with no spider that is madam ?️“

“My wife and I had the privilege of having J. Pistone cater our wedding rehearsal dinner on October 6th, 2023. The wide range of food options that were made available to us gave our guests a fantastic pallet of delicious options. Additionally, the staff that were present to help serve food and drinks were extremely kind and helpful. We would, without a doubt, strongly recommend J. Pistone for catering any kind of event!“
“The most relaxed and friendly place I've visited in years. Consistent with all the things that'll make come back over and over. Never have I ever once been disappointed whenever I've come. Excellent staff, food, and treatment of patrons. I recommend on the highest level.“
“Great atmosphere with fast & healthy food in the heart of Cleveland State University. Just a few steps from the CSU Welcome Center. Bonus: they have both Diet Coke and Diet Dr. Pepper. A new JAGND go-to. College student friendly. My daughter likes the decor and the hot chocolate!“
“Absolutely wonderful!!…the chef was very nice an respectful!..an the food was delicious!atmosphere was very clean an comfortable!!..I appreciate how they maintain their place of business an often find myself looking into the window in admiration!!..great job!!you are an asset to our community!“
