    Avocado toast  and potatoes.
    Adrie G.

    Great place for breakfast, brunch or lunch! Great coffee and bread and a wonderful fall menu! They have an awesome selection of items and definite crowd pleasers. Sweet items and savory as well as classic breakfast choices. It has a nice, clean kitchen-esque farm house vibes.

    Food: 5/5 stars Service: 2/5 stars Ambiance: 2/5 stars We ordered the Eggs Benedict, the "Healthy Turkey," and the Sunrise Granola Bowl, plus coffee and a mimosa. The food and drinks were OUTSTANDING. Absolutely delicious. I'm still thinking about it all hours later. I drink coffee black, and the coffee was superb. Portions were okay, probably a tad on the small side. I'm glad we each got our own meal, plus the Granola Bowl to share. Service was meh. Hostess wasn't at the stand when we came in, and no smile or friendliness when she arrived. Our waiter was kind; but, he disappeared a lot and we had to ask for things like water and the check. It wasn't very busy at all (dined in late on a Wednesday morning) but we felt forgotten about a lot of the time. Ambiance-wise, despite it not being super busy, it was still loud-- the farmhouse/industrial style leaves nothing to absorb or distribute sound. My husband and I actually had trouble conversing across our little table. Table had not been wiped when we were seated, and there was trash at the table. But would we go back? Haha, yeah, most likely. The food and drinks were that good.

    Wrenley: "Bacon is delicious, Cheers"

    Erin was awesome, the food came out quick & hot. According to my grandboo the bacon was delicious!

    Tri-fecta excluded eggs and added seasoned potatoes. The potatoes are phenomenal.

    The ambiance was relaxed and clean. Service was quick and staff friendly. Food was delicious and quickly served. Loved the potatoes. Will recommend!

    BARBACOA QUESADILLA BENEDICT

    I had the seasonal Barbados quesadillas Benedict. OMG!!! Fabulous! It is: Two barbacoa quesadillas prepared quesabirriastyle, topped with poached cage-free eggs and covered with our Vera Cruz hollandaise, ranchero sauce and scallions. Served with seasoned black beans topped with housemade pico de gallo. I did ask that the poached eggs be done well but one was and the other was drippy. Nevertheless, I would definitely get this again. Oh, and the coffee is very good!

    Cold brew w cold foam and toffee.

    I'm visiting Crocker Park and my daughter recommended FW. First of all, the staff was incredibly nice. We sat outside and think three separate folks checked in w us. The food was spot on, I like that they have healthy options and you can clearly see the calories. The Healthy Turkey w egg whites was delish and my daughters Honey pecan salad looked amazing. We both tried the cold brew w fancy foam and it's nice and strong. I was a bit under the weather so grabbed a morning meditation w Immunity boost and it also was exactly what I needed. The full menu is decadent, so there will be plenty of temptations. Next time, I'm going pancakes.

    We waited 30 min to get a table. It was worth the wait!! This place was fantastic. Our server Kennedy made our experience there even better. The food was delicious. I had the market veggie omelette... man this omelette was off the Richter good!!!! It has squash, onion mushroom, and goat cheese. They did not skimp on the veggies!!! The combo was crazy good. The house potatoes were delicious too. The pancakes I I was not impressed with but overall... this place is my new breakfast spot!!

    The service was awful we had to ask our server 3 times for water and it took over 20 minutes for her to bring it and we asked right when we ordered. If you get Gloria expect bad service. The food was great though.

Although, my real feedback is based upon the delivery of my drink. I ordered off their special sheet, a winter citrus latte. My order seemed to be taking awhile and when my name was called, the barista simply said "this is just orange. I couldn't work with the winter citrus so I need to disclose that to you. " What does that even mean, and why wouldn't I given the option to change my order if what I ordered was no longer available? This visit was just an uncomfortable experience all around.

Jeremy was our server, and was friendly, knowledgeable, and handled my gluten allergy without batting an eye. The food? Our selections were off the chain. We started with the deviled eggs - extremely creamy; a little kick; topped with a crisp cornichon. We had 4 different varieties of oysters -- all perfectly chilled and served with both cocktail and a green sauce mignonette, with plenty of lemon. Now for the showstoppers -- I had the N'awklins shrimp and grits. Oh my! The shrimp were nestled on top of the silky cheddar grits, and blackened - seasoned beautifully and cooked just right - not mushy or chewy. But the star? The broth! Tomato based, the depth of flavor was unexpected, and so good, I could have eaten a bowl of just that. My husband had Cioppino, which I could not taste due to GF. His description -- the broth was rich and thick -- not like a typical cioppino broth. It was was chock full of seafood -- very hearty -- with mussels; shrimp; calamari; clams, and just a touch of heat. The bread was also a standout -- baked to order, and then charred. You may want an extra piece of bread, he wants me to tell you! Really -- go to Salty Mary's, ask for Jeremy, and stuff yourself silly. You won't regret it.

There is outdoor seating but it was chilly out and the vibes inside are cute and Instagram friendly, so we ate inside. There were 4 of us and we each ordered a different drink and a different crepe. I ordered the Hawaiian crepe and an iced matcha latte with oat milk. The other 3 ordered a dirty Chai, a regular Chai, and a brown sugar oat latte for their drinks and the chicken tuscan, Parisian, and the bacon avocado crepes. We were really happy with our delicious crepes but were mixed on our drinks. The crepes are huge and definitely worth the money! I can only speak for mine but I thought my Hawaiian crepe had a generous serving of ham and pineapple inside and the pineapple sauce was chunky and slightly spicy! For the two of us, my bf paid about $45. So the crepes were great but I'd like to mention a few things that bumped this down to just a 4 star experience. The limited time drinks didn't have the prices listed on their special menu. I think that, if they read this review, they should write the prices next to all items they offer. Also, they forgot to charge my bf for his crepe and didn't put in his order so the other 3 of us had our crepes for a few minutes already before he asked where his was. They apologized and whipped his up immediately so he didn't have to wait in line. They still had him pay at the end though. Oh well! And lastly, they ABSOLUTELY need better ventilation here - your clothes will smell like fried food until you get home and wash them! Don't wear something non-washable here haha. Anyway, I'd come here again if I'm in the area for a crepe or two!

The facility is far bigger than I thought it would be. They have a central restaurant with multiple party centers on either side. It's a really BIG facility. New, modern, and quite attractive. With plenty of convenient parking. The wall of the restaurant that faces Cleveland Hopkins Airport is all glass. It affords you quite an impressive view of the airport and the planes landing. The staff we met was pleasant and efficient. Our server, Mina, did an excellent job all night. If there was a weak point, it would be the food. It was not bad (I'm trying to be kind); it was just uninspired, limited, and not really well prepared. Because they do not offer bread for the table our only option was to order the "Soft Pretzel". It arrived badly overcooked, crunchy not soft, and even boardering on burnt. The charcuterie board was OK, but uninspired. I ordered the "Lemon Chicken" which was a full half chicken in a reasonably good sauce. But the meat was dry and it came only with brussel sprouts (yuk!). My wife had the "Walleye" which she simply said was "okay"... oh well. Our guests weren't any more impressed than we were. I will say our coffee and "Pot de Creme" were very good... thank goodness.

We started strong with a French 75 and an Old Fashioned--both expertly crafted, but that Old Fashioned? Smooth, balanced, and memorable enough to set the tone for the entire evening. Wednesday happens to be Wing Day ($2 whole wings), and we took full advantage. We sampled Buffalo, Sweet & Tangy BBQ, Lemon Pepper Dry Rub, and the undeniable star of the show: Garlic Parmesan. Each had its own personality, but that Garlic Parmesan was simply elite. Service was impeccable--Emily was attentive without being intrusive, making sure our experience flowed as effortlessly as the cocktails. Speaking of which, round two brought a Cosmo alongside a repeat of that Old Fashioned...because when you find the right note, you stay in that key. For food, we shared the French Dip Baguette--shaved prime rib, provolone, horseradish aioli, and au jus done right--and paired it with the Mega Crunch Fries, elevated with sea salt, rosemary, and a light truffle oil drizzle. Simple menu items, executed with intention. We closed the evening the same way we began--together, with one final round of Old Fashioneds. A Happy Hour well spent. A celebration well honored. A 14-year journey still taking off.
