    Korean French Toast
    Deanna V.

    My husband and I live about 45 minutes outside of Cleveland. We had friends coming into town for a game last Saturday and we wanted to meet up for brunch. We wanted a place that had mimosas and took reservations, which is how we landed at Betts. I was utterly embarrassed to showcase the city by taking our friends to this restaurant, as the service was awful. It took over half an hour to receive the mimosas we ordered, while we sat with cups of melting ice waiting for someone to pour us some water. Ultimately, we had to go to the bar and ask about our drinks, because our server was off cleaning and ignoring our table. The staff member who then delivered the mimosas to us said they were complimentary because our wait was so long. Ordering brought additional irritation as the server failed to mention being out of any dishes until we tried to order them. When our food arrived, it was fine (though overpriced as others mentioned), but nothing special. By the time our check came, we were so ready to get out of there that we paid as fast as we could. It wasn't until we were signing the slips that we saw we were charged for the mimosas. We should have checked before giving our cards. To make matters more annoying and confusing, our waitress gave us two gift cards with the check. At the time, we thought it was a nice gesture on top of the complimentary mimosas for our frustrating experience. Instead, it seems they were provided in place of comping the mimosas, which made us feel more duped than anything. Overall, it was an incredibly disappointing experience made worse knowing the impression we gave our friends who were visiting from out of town. We didn't like the food enough to return and given that we all live in different places, we aren't likely to have the opportunity again any time soon. If we did, we would absolutely choose another restaurant to visit.

    Wedge Salad.  Needed more blue cheese dressing.
    Debra V.

    We were downtown. I had read reviews, and Betts was good, so on a whim we stopped. Reservations were recommended, but the place wasn't busy so we chose a hightop. There is a full bar and regular tables. The menu has a nice variety. For starters we had the smoked trout, which was nicely presented. We will order that again. Hubs liked how the Wedge salad came with three thick lettuce slices. The grilled chicken on top was good. Could have used a bit more blue cheese, tho. I had the Schnitzel with Spaetzel and Brussels spouts. The Brussels were nothing special. I think they were just roasted in the oven. The three slices of Schnitzel were lightly breaded and very good with the Jalapeño mustard cream on the Spaetzel. Service was good. We will make this our go-to place when eating downtown. So happy we stopped.

    I came here with a bit of a negative attitude because, after searching through old menus, I wasn't a big fan of any of their current weekend brunch offerings. But I agreed to get brunch here with a few friends before seeing a show at Playhouse and had to get something! Located inside a nice downtown Cleveland hotel, Betts is a classy restaurant with a nice interior and high prices to match. If you get any of their overpriced drinks or a side or two, you may rack up quite the bill! I decided on getting the somewhat boring "Betts Breakfast," as it was the cheapest thing on the menu and I love turkey sausage. For $15, I got a surprisingly large portion of scrambled eggs, two turkey patties, a thick slice of sourdough toast, and home fries. The best part was the creamy scrambled eggs, shockingly! I did like everything but would have liked the home fries to be seasoned. But I did feel like I was fed well for $15. My friend's $23 salmon eggs benedict was definitely way too expensive for what she got, I'll tell you that! Our waitress was Elizabeth who was kind and efficient. We were in and out in a good time but didn't feel rushed. The bathroom is single occupant only and was nice and clean. Although I shouldn't be surprised, Betts is another place that has that darn 3% card surcharge fee. Overall, I'd be okay with eating here again although I will still try to stay within budget with what I order.

    Moscow Mule
    Brittany F.

    I was a little hesitant about trying this place because of some so-so reviews, but my experience was mostly good! I started off by ordering a Moscow mule that was on special. It was delicious but wasn't served in the classic copper mug it's usually served in. The table next to us ordered the same thing, and theirs was served in a copper mug (not the end of the world, just odd, I guess). For an appetizer, we ordered the French onion dip with chips. It was really good! It tasted like a sophisticated version of chips and dip. For my entrée, I ordered the grilled salmon and substituted the asparagus with broccolini. The salmon was quite delicious, and the broccolini, while a little tough to eat, was delightful as well. If you ask about dessert, they'll name off a list of items. We ended up ordering a cake for two that was very similar to a Ho Ho. The cake was probably my favorite part of our experience. It was so fun and tasty! Now, the thing preventing me from giving this place 5 stars is that our service was SO slow! When I first arrived, the person I came with was late, so I assumed that's why I wasn't getting waited on consistently at the beginning, but the slow service continued the entire time. What's frustrating is that the table next to us seemed to be getting adequate service throughout. My friend and I had tickets to a show at Playhouse Square, and we ended up being late because of how long it took to get the check.

    I heard all about Betts but never visited until recently. I was on West 6th for an appointment and considering my brunch options. Betts was the most elevated lunch around. And so, I finally experienced it. AMBIANCE: Restaurant in the heart of downtown Cleveland attached to the Kimpton Schofield Hotel. It's very convenient to enter through the separate entrance and not the hotel. The restaurant has plenty of natural light, ambient lighting, downtown views (of Heinen's building), and trendy private room. The latter has gorgeous greens, floral mural walls, and cute shelves. It's definitely a restaurant you can add to the pages of interior design magazine. It's gorgeous, modern, and spacious. Plenty of seating options are available. For small parties, there are booths, high tops, and tables. For solo diners, take a seat at a marble bar. For large parties, there is a separate event room where you'll feel like you're having your own private dining experience. FOOD/DRINKS: The menu is uncomplicated, one page, one for each - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Basic menu categories like starters, soups and salads, sandwiches, and entrees are available. I ordered a hearty lunch on a winter day - Lamb Stew ($24) and coffee ($4.50, refillable). Lamb Stew included a generous serving and was extremely delicious. The meat was very tender accompanied by potatoes and veggies. It has some very smooth, buttery undertones which I loved. It might be the best stew I tried in Cleveland. I was also very impressed by the coffee. It was very smooth and pleasant. I drank multiple cups. Be aware that 3% convenience fee will be added to your bill for credit card bill. SERVICE: I was greeted multiple times upon entering the space - once by the hotel employee and then restaurant employees. I felt very welcome! The service was initially delayed due to no dedicated bartender. After the service started, I was very happy with the attentiveness and friendliness. They really have a great staff that seems to work together well, have fun, and help each other. My waiter Dawud was very friendly. VALUE: Few ways to save are available. Happy Hour is available Monday through Friday, 3-6 PM. On Wednesday, you can get 1/2 price off wine bottles. They also have Loyalty Program but I'm not sure what it entails. I was very happy with my experience at Betts. It's a way better dining experience than at an average hotel restaurant. The lamb stew is a dish I'd have again and again. I very much look forward to my next visit.

    Cinnamon Bun French Toast

    For brunch, lunch or dinner Betts should be on your list! The food is excellent with lots of different options. The service is great with a super friendly team. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with plenty of seating. If you're going for dinner you absolutely need to get the short rib-- it's excellent. Be sure to check out their drink menu for lots of fun cocktails. They also have half price bottles of wine on Wednesdays so you really can't go wrong at Betts!

    HH is decent! We come here when we stay here. Staff is friendly but not open late, prices a bit steep for what this is.

    Partially Eaten Large Chopped Salad
    Dan M.

    This was part of a hotel and was towards the left upon entering. It was a nice sized location with a good-sized bar present too. The menu had a number of intriguing options to choose from. The service was alright. They did not come back to refill waters often. I went with the large, chopped salad. It came with romaine lettuce, pickled red onion, egg, tomato, chickpeas and a buttermilk blue cheese dressing. It was not too bad. I wish there were more chickpeas present as well as the onions being sliced rather than being so big. Some onions were sliced, but others too big. There was a great amount of the blue cheese dressing, and all the flavors just blended well together. Everything appeared very fresh too. I also tried the shrimp and grits. The grits were sweet, but the homemade sauce that was on the side was a nice compliment to them. The poblano relish was tasty too. Will I go back? I suppose.

    Hanger Steak
    Jenn H.

    I was promptly seated and greeted by staff. They provided me with a few recommendations as I've never been to Bett's. I had the Hanger Steak which was cooked to perfection and a signature cocktail. The overall ambiance of the restaurant was great, I felt right at home and had a few staff come by to say hello and ask how I was going. Overall it was a great stay and I'll be back soon.

    Steak & Eggs
    Thomas H.

    Restaurant inside Kimpton hotel. Very friendly and attentive service by Bianca. We had French Toast and Egg & Steak. Both were excellent and tasty. Not cheap, but solid breakfast in nice sit down restaurant.

    Wine and beer menu
    Jennifer B.

    I love staying at The Kimpton Schofield hotel and this restaurant is located inside. Things I've loved in the past are their great happy hour, local juices, and vegan options. Things I've not loved in the past are hit or miss service, slow service, sometimes poorly made drinks (which I solved by ordering beer or wine). Today's breakfast made me change my good prior reviews based on a negative experience. Two of us dined for breakfast and reviewed the latest menu noticing they clearly call out vegan, vegetarian options. Love that this restaurant still gets it and offers options for all eaters. We place our order with a very kind and competent female server (who appeared to be the manager on staff). Ordered two grapefruit juices, an avocado toast, and chilaquiles (both vegan which just means egg and cheese out/tofu instead). Juices weren't anything special nor fresh. I suggest getting the Anna's Raw juices instead. Meals came out. The tofu on the avocado toast looked grilled. Nice, but still had no flavor. The chilaquiles had goat cheese sprinkled all over the top. I confirmed this was indeed cheese with our server and she asked the kitchen to remake it. They did and it came out pretty quickly with sliced tofu (not grilled, just plain tofu out of the box). No problem as I'm hungry. Take a few bites and still taste the goat cheese. This was my most unfavorite cheese when I used to eat dairy, so I know what it tastes like. I poke around on the plate and see they've left me a small stash of cheese under the bottom tortilla. Not cool. Didn't eat the meal. What a waste. Suggestions for this restaurant if they're listening: In addition to paying attention to the customer's order, I'd recommend doing something with the tofu. You're subbing it for scrambled eggs. Mash it up and make it scrambled. Put black salt on it... pepper, some onion and garlic powder, turmeric, and nutritional yeast. Tofu tastes like nothing if you put nothing on it, so change that. Would they serve a scrambled egg with no spices/salt/pepper? Yuck if so. The only reason for two stars versus one is they have other vegan options. The Caesar used to be great. Not sure if I'd eat here again though.

    Brunching at the bar.
    Brian P.

    Took first come/first serve seats at bar. Waited about ten minutes before anyone talked to us for beverage orders. Got coffee and water. Despite being there for more than an hour and a half for our meal, no more coffee or water would be forthcoming. This did allow us to notice coffee ground sludge at the bottom of the coffee cup. Weird and kind of gross. Finally ordered. Notified a few minutes later they were out of sausage, so bacon for us. We ordered it extra crispy, came looking like it was fresh out of the package, almost uncooked. No joke. White strips of bacon. We ate (leaving bacon untouched) finished, and then waited for a check. We had taken our seats at around 9am; we were now worrying we were going to be late for our 11am hotel check out. We've been here many times before because we love the Kimpton, but this lobby restaurant experience was a complete bust. Go to Addy's, go to Yours Truly, go to Double Nickel. Hell, go to Starbuck's. For a $50 breakfast for two, you expect to get good service and decent food. Sadly on this go round, we got neither. (We still tipped well...I'm a sucker for Labor Day.)

    The service is really what made it special. It was pretty empty so We were able to get a nice corner seat outside. Waitress was funny and accommodating . Food was pretty good. Nothing spectacular but worth coming back. Worth noting that those fries pictured was actually amazing!

Burger Box -- The patties were…read moreperfectly cooked, the bun was fluffy and soft, and if you love tomatoes, I would absolutely recommend adding their fresh tomatoes to your burger! There was just the right ratio of their homemade sauce, which complemented the smokey cheddar very well. 2. Over Dressed Greens -- I truly did not expect this to be one of my favorites of the night! The salad is generously mixed with their homemade white French sauce, and you could really taste the freshness of the vegetables and produce. They pickle their zucchinis, which was such a pleasant surprise because it added a crunchy texture alongside the croutons and the pickled flavor truly elevated the entire salad! 3. Jammy Eggs -- Egg yolks were cooked to perfect consistency and I loved their take on an Asian-fusion style dish with their furikake seasoning, which also gave slight crunchy texture alongside their creamy sauce that gave a hint of spiciness. 4. Szalay's Sweet Corn -- The mix of the cacio e pepe and miso aioli worked really well as the sauce for the sweet corn and gave it a creamy and savory flavor with every bite! All the cocktails we tried were very special and delicious! Their ingredients list includes unique combinations that pleasantly work for the drink. My favorite drink was "Never Too Much" and I don't even like Hennessy like that haha -- it was such a refreshing drink and the peach and lemon flavors truly was perfect for the fall season. As for service, our waitress Tate was incredibly friendly and efficient and gave us complimentary dessert due to a slight water spill during the meal. I can now fully understand the hype of this restaurant and when I come visit again, I will absolutely be back -- no questions asked!

We had…read moreexcellent service from when we were seated on-time for our reservation to when we got the check. Everything came out in a timely and well-paced manner and our server went above and beyond in providing outstanding midwestern niceness and hospitality, explaining dishes to us, engaging in conversation, answering our questions, and working with the kitchen to make some minor accommodations to the dishes. The prices were also reasonable for the portion sizes. The ambiance is an interesting, funky mix of open piping with an open kitchen concept and artwork with a nod to Cleveland. My wife and I split several dishes and were fine to outstanding; however, I am giving Cordelia four stars because several dishes were way too salty, affecting what otherwise would have been amazing dishes. My wife and I shared the following dishes: Party snacks: One of the two star dishes of the night. The bread was crispy and served as a great vehicle for the dips. The carrot muhammara, farmer's cheese, and jammy eggs were particularly good and the three snacks I would get if I were only ordering three snacks. Blooming Eggplant: The other star dish of the night, besides being unique with Michelin-caliber presentation, the fry was perfect, the sauce was good, the coating was crispy, and the eggplant well-cooked. The lemon brought everything together and provided some welcome acid. A little on the salty side but very good. Cavatelli: The cavatelli were perfectly al dente; unfortunately, the sauce was overwhelming salty and took away from the pasta. Tomatoes a la chaoshou: The tomatoes were in-season and extremely fresh. The sauce was good, if slightly salty. Ohio Green Beans: The green beans were perfectly cooked with some firmness, nicely seared, and presented well. The zhug was quite salty and detracted from the green beans, although the crunch of the pistachio was excellent. Kate's Fish: The lake walleye was fresh and the accompanying sauces were good and provided nice flavor to give body to the fish (although a bit salty). The skin needed to be crispier; overall, an OK dish but nothing distinctive. My wife and I got the dirt 'n worms and the corn ice cream with caramel sauce for dessert. The caramel sauce was good; the corn ice cream was bland and the mousse was average. I would recommend Cordelia for your next special occasion.

The friend with me that night even questioned if we were in the right place as I strolled to the back of the restaurant and walked up to the girl seated at a podium. "Excuse me, but is this the way to the foundation room?" I asked her. She affirmed, and we were soon on our way up an elevator. When we got to the second floor, we were promptly greeted by a host, Julius, who showed us around. The decor is sumptuous, a blend of Moroccan, Indian, and Jacobean flair. After checking out a room with relics from an Indian temple and looking at the rooftop (with an Instagram-worthy floral wall), we decided to grab a cozy spot near the bar and ordered a drink. As we sipped on our Old Fashioneds, Julius came by to check on us, and we watched the place fill up with an array of people in a festive mood. It was a lovely way to end a night in Cleveland, and a place I highly recommend that you check out when you're in the area!

The restaurant was 0.30 miles away from my hotel, which made it the perfect stop during my morning walk before checking out of the hotel. This restaurant happens to be situated within Public Square. I stopped in to see what was offered, hoping that I could find something vegetarian-friendly. It took me a while to look through the menu, and the employee even offered to make alterations to the featured items after my mention of being vegetarian. Other than the smoothies, the one item on the menu that caught my eye was the Greek Freak, which is what I ordered. Very intriguing decoration which I admired while my order was being prepared. The designs and features I enjoyed were the back wall featuring a geometric design highlighted by vibrant green moss triangles and the signature REBoL vertical text signage off to the left side of the restaurant. There was also distinctive geometric grid pattern crafted from wooden dowels running across the ceiling structure, which was hard to ignore. The wall graphic located in the background off to the right side of the counter depicted an illustrated portrait of the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, positioned next to his famous quote, "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." I learned that the quote was originally from the Whole Earth Catalog and was popularized by Steve Jobs during his 2005 Stanford University commencement address. The mural also featured a stylized, colorful pop-art illustration of Jobs alongside other notable cultural figures. The dining area had clean, polished concrete flooring. The seating featured high-top wooden tables paired with matte black metal bar stools. Once my order was ready, I spoke with the employee about the decorations and some of the cookies he was about to label. I mentioned my interest in possibly purchasing one during my next trip to Cleveland, which will likely be in a couple of months to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. Okay, I loved the presentation of the "Greek Freak," which was served on a brioche bun and literally had egg bursting out of it. Other visual toppings were cucumber, red onion, and goat cheese crema. I did enjoy the sandwich, but next time I would likely put the goat cheese crema on the side or likely do without it. If you are undecided on what to order at this restaurant and are vegetarian, I do recommend it or possibly some of their smoothies. Because I had a great ordering experience, I would definitely order from REBOL again--whether for Uber Eats delivery or takeout--whenever I visit Cleveland.

    Rebol came in clutch when I was in Cleveland for a weeklong engagement and getting tired of the…read moreconvention center food. It was walking distance from the convention center, so it was quite easy for me to try out this place during my lunch. The menu online looked interesting and healthy-ish, so I decided to try it out. I went for the chimi chicken bowl, and found it to be very flavorful. It was a great mix of protein, carbs, and veggies, and I really enjoyed the chimichurri sauce in the bowl. I actually could've done without the wonton chips, but I'm glad I gave it a try. The store was fairly busy when I arrived around 11:40 but I got my bowl within 10 minutes. I liked that there were some outdoor tables where I could sit and enjoy my meal while people watching in the public square. I was tempted to return later in the week to try their breakfast. Maybe someday if I return.

After waiting about 10 minutes with no acknowledgment from anyone, I decided to at least check out the restroom while I waited... and that's when everything went downhill. The floors were extremely sticky--every step literally felt like my shoes were pulling off the ground. It didn't feel clean at all. As I got closer to the restroom area, there was a strong smell of what I can only describe as wet, moldy rags. The bathroom itself was dark, oddly designed, and just gave an overall uncomfortable vibe. What made it worse is that the place wasn't even busy--there was only one table and a couple people at the bar. So the lack of service and cleanliness really stood out. By the time I walked back to the bar, I had already made up my mind. No one had still acknowledged me, and based on the condition of the place, I wasn't willing to take a chance on the food. I grabbed my things and left. Later on, I mentioned it at another restaurant and was told this place is known for poor food quality and lack of authenticity--which honestly aligned with what I experienced just from being inside. I can't speak on the food since I didn't stay, but based on cleanliness, smell, and service alone, I would not recommend this spot. It gave the impression that basic upkeep isn't a priority, and that's not something I'm willing to overlook.
