The sausage and eggs were great, sausage was perfectly cooked, and the eggs were a perfect over medium.

2 Stars -- Great Food, Terrible Overall Service…read more The Original Pancake House in Woodmere has great food, but unfortunately, the overall service during our visit was terrible. We waited about 30 minutes to be seated, which wasn't a problem. We were enjoying time with family and looking forward to a good meal. The problem started AFTER we were seated. The hostess took our drink order but told us she only takes drink orders. Then we waited another 30 minutes without anyone greeting us or taking our food order. At one point, another waitress actually said, "I see you looking at me, but I'm not taking your order." Wow. Eventually, a very nice waitress came over and took care of us. She was great! Our food came out fairly quickly, everything was hot and delicious, and the price was reasonable at around $20 per person. Meanwhile, three hostesses were standing at the front singing and harmonizing with no customers instead of helping the clearly overwhelmed waitstaff. It felt like they were preparing to be discovered on American Idol while we were waiting just to place an order. There was no manager around to address the situation, and at one point, the restaurant even started getting smoky. The food was good and our eventual waitress was wonderful, but waiting nearly an hour from arrival just to place a food order is unacceptable. Great food. Great waitress once we got one. Terrible overall service.

After…read morean early morning run we happened into Lunas and were pleasantly surprised, the wait staff were welcoming and it smelled like bacon, all good signs when you are hungry and looking for breakfast. We didn't have to wait and were at in a booth, surrounded by the Saturday regular crowd. The menu is simple, offering pancakes, French toast, hash and eggs, wraps, bagel specials and more. We opted for simple traditional dishes, eggs with grits and toast for me, a western omelet bagel sandwich and Homefries for my husband. Both were made well and came out pretty quick. The grits were microwaved and lacking salt, so if you are looking for milled grits order the potatoes. Overall is was good, local and nothing fancy.

I was in the mood for Indian today and stumbled upon Taste of Kerala on Uber Eats. It's located in…read moreWoodmere on Chagrin Blvd. smack dab in the middle of lots of other eateries and shopping centers. In the front of the building there's an Indian grocery store with the same name, but once you head around to the back, you'll see the entrance to the restaurant. There's ample parking and a small patio. I wanted to try something beyond my usual chicken masala or butter chicken, so I asked for a recommendation and placed an order for pickup over the phone. The employee recommended the malabar chicken, a coconut curry dish, however I opted for a cashew curry dish. The chattined chicken korma was super tasty, not too spicy, and full of flavor. The chicken was super moist and tender and It came with a good amount of jasmine rice and two pieces of garlic naan. The naan was moist in some areas but somewhat overcooked in others rendering it a little bit tough to eat. I also got an appetizer of samosas, which were absolutely incredible! The potatoes were packed with flavor and the pastry outside was both flaky and soft. The samosas came with two dipping sauces, one chutney and one that tasted like a sweet tea dipping sauce. Both were really good. Overall the meal was very tasty and had great flavors. My only complaint was the size of the chicken entree. It was pretty small in comparison to the amount of rice. The sauce that it came in was really tasty, but was quickly swallowed up once I put it over my rice. A slightly larger to-go container would have solved this problem or less rice. I will say, I didn't finish the entire meal and definitely felt full. I'm happy to have discovered this place that's been in an area I frequent for over 8 years. I look forward to trying another new dish in the near future.

Food is very authentic as I'm told with a couple of people who grew up with south Indian cuisine…read more The spices have not been modified to accommodate the American palette. Since this restaurant focused on southern Indian cuisine, we tried to order only South Indian entrees with 2 exceptions (masala dosa and palak paneer). The mango lassi is made fresh with real mangos, the freshness of the mangoes is evident and no extra sugar. For appetizers we got chicken cutlet, veg cutlet parippu vada and Gobi 65. All were wonderful. Although I was not expecting the chicken cutlet to be made with very finely ground chicken. What's a great way to start the meal. Hard to believe but it gets better with the meal. For our mains we got: palak paneer, vendakai masala (okra), eggplant masala, kappa with green curry, goat curry in bone. We ordered medium spice level on all the entrees and it was ok for me. My favorite was the goat curry with bone, the meat was tender and the flavor profile was out of this world weather you eat it with naan or rise. Awesome food can't wait to go back for my next meal.

The food offerings are pretty basic and the sauces are one-dimensional but the portions are reasonable and you don't leave hungry. Thankfully, this location is not as crowded as the Chagrin Falls one. I think the wait times for both brunch and dinner were not terrible. Service was fine but not particularly quick. Would probably come back for brunch sometime again since First Watch and Chicago Deli are always flooded with people.

This little gem is too new to judge it with my normal tools, so today's review will be based on…read morejust the basics... The menu offerings are rather diverse and cover basic Americana as well as some European dishes. Breakfast seems to be their thing, but there was still a decent lunch crowd. The atmosphere is total mom-and-pop shop complete with teal booths and old school placemats. The servers are friendly and eager, with the kid-next-door charm that you can expect in a neighborhood like this. The owner is a young native Clevelander who has been in the family restaurant business since he was twelve. This is his first venture into restaurant ownership and his passion for creating a truly welcoming neighborhood joint is very apparent. The chicken noodle soup was clearly homemade and had that momma's kitchen flavor that I like. The Bang Burger is already ranking in as a guest favorite, and not without proper cause. It's a fresh patty topped with grilled ham, turkey, and provolone all on a grilled bun. Served along side crunchy fries. This burger is boss! Today's specials included a goulash served atop noodles, an open-faced roast beef sandwich with all of the fixins', and a beef kabob and fresh mashies combo. I sampled the goulash and must admit that the beef was ultra tender and it was uniquely seasoned. The surely instant potatoes that accompanied the goulash were topped with a really nice house-made gravy. The overall experience was pleasant and the food totally decent. This is good come-as-you-are kinda place. I will for sure be back and hope that others will give this little newbie a try. It's worth it. If I had to sum this place up with one statement it would be... A neighborly old school charmer that's home cooked classics help to warm up this horrid winter!
