    The server was excellent! The food was delicious AND HUGE PORTIONS! Make sure to buy the whole bottle of champagne! It's cheaper that way!! Breakfast was good and the salafs! Drinks were very good!

    Went for dinner with my colleagues. I had The ny strip which was nicely cooked so I liked it. And the other two had the burger and the salmon and said it was good. Sadly they couldn’t tell me if the brownie sundae contains soy so I couldn’t eat it.

    The hostess was very welcoming and the waitress showed great customer service. I had the kill it skillet with turkey sausage and Sunnyside up eggs. The bread was perfectly buttered. It was an all around fun experience.

    The service here is always wonderful. Very nice people. Food is always right. Better than your normal diner. Great go to for breakfast or lunch. Killer milkshake, love the cottage fries and they might make the best sweet potato fries. Salads and the healthy stuff doesn't disappoint either.

    Fun and zippy atmosphere! The servers are so pleasant, and the aromas coming from the open kitchen are just so inviting. I was at Crown Plaza for Barbizon and decided to etop because of the convenience of being in the district. Thankfully so I had a wonderful meal, a meal to go, and met some great people. I will be returning next month! Thank y'all!

    Yours Truly was a great weekend breakfast experience for us while visiting the great city of Cleveland. Excellent food, service and atmosphere. They were well staffed. I enjoyed the Eggs Bruschetta and an unsweetened tea. When my breakfast arrived, several people in our groups said, "Wow! I wish I would have ordered that!" By the way, I am broke the yoke, not the chef, and had to pause for a picture when I saw what a flavorful work of art this dish is. I will definitely go back to Yours Truly. Plus, I had to include a picture of their bathroom, because it was as clean as can be and that is something we don't always see when going to restaurants these days.

    Went to dinner before play at playhouse square. Everyone from the hostess to the waitresses to the people that brought out the food were extremely friendly genuinely concerned about making our eating experience. Pleasant... Food was excellent and reasonably priced.

    My server Samantha was awesome. My order came out quickly and was very tasty. Our glasses never got low and the atmosphere was very relaxed. You have to try the notso fries!

    We're Canadian and have never been here before. I ordered chicken strips and fries, and my fiance ordered the burger and fries. We sat upstairs. The atmosphere was lacking up there. The music was too quiet to be heard and honestly, it was very loud with people chatting (it echoed up there). Inconveniently there was no restroom upstairs, nor is there is an escalator to easily get downstairs. (I have arthritis and it's not easy to climb that). So the food was okay. I got a gigantic bowl of honey mustard to dip. (Honestly the size of the bowl was insane. it was like a soup bowl lol). The chicken was alright. Fiance said his burger was okay. The fries are a fun shape, so we liked those. The server had a slight attitude. Like every question I was asking was an inconvenience to him to answer. Very meh experience. When we left both my fiance and I agreed that it was loud and overwhelming in there and we both were feeling anxious.

    Traditional American restaurant in the heart of Downtown Cleveland. We tried The Sunrise breakfast. It was awesome. Service lady was very well behaved. They gave my daughter crayons and stickers. Will definitely visit again.

    Great location on a Main Street so we had high expectations when we popped in for a snack and a drink. The beers were good as well as an excellent hummus appetizer, but the chili was pretty dry (no liquid) and the 2 sliders took 30 minutes to come out and were pretty average once they finally did arrive. Cole, our server, did his best, but overall this was just an ok experience. VictorB

    Server was great. Under staffed he was really busy but very nice. Worst meal we had. I had a crispy chicken sandwich it was dry, greasy and I don't know what the fries were but they weren't fries.

    Nice downtown Diner in the Playhouse district. Abby, the server, was super friendly and won over the whole group. We will definitely return. We ordered oatmeal and three Sunrise breakfast meals. No disappointed customers. Recommended: The Italian breakfast sausage has a little kick but is flavorful.

    We had an excellent first time experience here. Our waitress was Shay and was so nice and helpful with my questions and even brought me a sample of the wasabi sauce to try before ordering. I had the Asian chicken and vegetable platter with rice and salad, it was very good and a lot of food! My husband had eggs Benedict and enjoyed it. We shared a chocolate milkshake. We will definitely go back!

    This is my preferred place to eat before a play at Playhouse Square. They'll food is consistent, the service is always pleasant. If you like cocktails, I'd suggest the Hallie's Berries (especially in the hot summer months), it's refreshing.

    I went here with my mom and dad to eat before my flight home. We came with two hours to spare thinking that that’s a good amount of time for a quick sit down meal. We went to the bar and ordered a few drinks. I asked for iced tea, mom got wine, and dad was just drinking tap beer. She was quick off the bat w their drinks but did forget mine and took about 10 min. My mom said her wine was the wrong one so she argued with her then proceeded to make her deal w the wrong wine. Then after that she refused to make eye contact with us, just being extremely hostile. We asked another waiter to help us and when they said sure they disappeared too. We had ordered food when we ordered drinks to be safe and at this point it’s been an hour and a half of no service nothing so we ask for a manager and say we need to leave. We came here for me to eat since I was starving before my flight and not only did they waste our time and were so incredibly rude, they made us pay for all the drinks we got still and asked if I wanted my food cuz it was actually done just sitting there since our waitress refused to bring it out. Made no sense. Me and my whole family have worked in the hospitality industry and appreciate the hard work that goes into it but as people who worked in it, we will not tolerate an environment of hostility, disrespect, and pure ignorance of a staff. You not only ruined what was supposed to be a great going away lunch that left me pacing to the airport and starving still. 0 stars if I could. I have no remorse for places that can treat people like this.

    I wandered in in search of a cup of coffee this morning. The hostess and server only complemented my two dogs in a stroller. They didn’t give me a hard time. Server Kim was pleasant and made me feel like I was the only person in the restaurant. I got my coffee and my food immediately and it’s very busy this morning on a Saturday morning. I didn’t have to wait for a table. I will definitely come back tomorrow morning and whenever I stay in downtown Cleveland.

    Absolutely delicious. I got the sunrise breakfast. Portion size was great, I got scrambled eggs with cheese and they were probably the best I have had. Atmosphere and our server sam were also amazing. Definitely recommend.

    What a cute place in a great location! It's like a diner, but better and higher quality without the pretentious prices. We came here after a show at Connor Palace. HUGE menu and all-day breakfast is always a win. Very affordable prices, especially given the location. Delicious fries! Super friendly, quick service.

    I went here for a breakfast while I was on a business trip. I really enjoyed the food, and the service was great. It’s a pretty affordable spot, with great portions and above average food. If you are in the area, looking for a good breakfast, you will want to check this place out. Just be warned - there is limited parking around playhouse square, unless you are willing to pay, so I’d recommend walking or Ubering over.

    I always have a great time. Staff is great, business is always clean! Service is always fast and reliable and the wait for the limit is very short, as well as worth it. You can tell in your food, that they care about the customer experience/satisfaction of the meal

👍 March 2022: Stopped here for lunch on a comp from the Jack Casino. They gave me $30 that I used to get the Double melt, tots, vanilla shake, and chili to go. Pros: * Clean restaurant with a bar and plenty of TVs on the walls. * Friendly staff who were attentive to my needs. It was not very busy so...
