    Orange & Beet Salad - so tasty!
    Jenn G.

    Such a wonderful ambiance in the room with the spiral staircase and special floor tiles. Present for lunch on a Tuesday. Arrived at 11:30a without reservation and led right to a table. Room full by end. My salad was absolutely scrumptious. Loved every aspect of it. Gorgeous. Friend's burger looked juicy & divine (jealous, perhaps). Fries - I got one! Super. Only scruple - the piece of celery on my Bloody Mary skewer looked like it had been sliced a couple days ago. Set it aside. No biggee. But celery's not pricey. Give me a fresh cut next time, please!

    The Au Chaval burger in all it's glory.

    Hecks in Ohio City is still one of the most charming venues with great food! The ambience of this location is exceptional. You start drinking in the rooms, just walking into the restaurant. It's a charming neighborhood, particularly with the Autumn leaves blanketing the area. Lunch was exceptional. I had the Au Chaval Burger. Mind you, I was skeptical because I used to live within walking distance from the actual "Au Chaval" in Chicago. This was every bit as good as the original, and trust me, the Au Chaval burger is better than you can imagine. It was two sunny-side-up eggs on excellent, high-quality beef with a dollop of sour cream and a quality bun. The fries are excellent, just soft enough to dip in ketchup and mayo and very tasty, not the least bit greasy. The service was as good as it gets. Again, a good restaurant server is like God, everywhere but never seen, and always available when you need them. This is a place well worth visiting! Thank you, staff!

    Heck's Cafe does not disappoint. I made a reservation and was seated where I was preferenced. I greatly appreciated the acknowledgement of my note on my opentable reservation. The cute scenic view of the spiral staircase with sunlight coming in through the windows is my favorite. Our waiter was very attentive, flexible and kind. We ordered the pierogis and potstickers as appetizers. It wasn't as flavorful as I remember it. But still not too bad, although they were pricey appetizers at $13, when my large burger and fries were only $15. One thing I will say is service is kinda slow, but I understand that they're very busy and have a lot going on so I definitely don't count that against them. I ordered the Ohio City Burger, the spice flavor was strong, but kinda wish I would've opted for a burger with an aioli sauce since it was dry. My friend got the blackened salmon burger which she enjoyed. The fries were decent too and I appreciated the large pickle slice. The basic coffee was surprisingly amazing and had a very strong fall mix taste. Highly recommend for anyone new to the area to check out Heck's. I can't wait to try other options off the menu on future visits!

    Wow. amazing! From the food to the service, this place was awesome. I am always looking for a good truffle fry and i'd say this place is going to be my top 3!! Fresh food, great flavors and great staff.

    This little corner spot is so much bigger than imagined on the inside! The food is absolutely delicious and the service is fantastic. Everyone is so friendly. Brunch is the best but the burgers are great too.

    The perfect brunch spot year round. In the summer you can dine outside, but there's some really cool places to enjoy your meal amongst an incredible plant room. The service is great, the food is awesome and your experience will be second to none. Check out the heckburger or one of their seasonal specials for an unforgettable meal.

    A terrific overall experience. Quick service and delicious assortment of food. Had to take a full takeout container of leftovers home. A variety of seating and settings, from personal tables to an airy greenhouse area to a lodge-type dining hall. Great spot to check out!

    Brieberry burger
    Claire M.

    I had a great solo lunch sitting at the bar of Heck's. The staff were very friendly and I had great interactions with both Victoria and Joan. I thought I wanted one burger but I was happily encouraged to try the Brie Berry Burger with added caramelized onions. I subbed the Cesar salad for French fries and it was such delicious and filling meal. I also tried the My Mai Thai and it was sweet and bright and tasty.

    Hecks Café is such a cute spot! This place is very trendy and hipster and if you are an out of towner this is a great place to check out. It is a bit more on the pricey side but in my option the quality is there. Food: Salmon Burger 8/10 It's shredded salmon not a patty - which is weird because they asked me how I wanted it cooked - I said medium it was a bit on the soggy side. The waitress warned us an said people found it salty so I asked for no seasoning and just the sause it came with on the side and I thought it was great. I would order it again- but next time well done so it's not soggy. Truffle Fries 10/10 These were a table favorite! They are real fresh potatoes and are rich in truffle flavor no dipping necessary! Heck Burger 10/10 Cooked to my husbands specifications and fresh! Salmon entree 8/10 Falafel burger 10/10 Slightly spicy but filling and homemade! All in all we enjoyed our meal there and the waitress was outstanding and paced our courses well and kept our drinks above 1/2 the entire time. I recommend a nice meal here :)

    It was a delicious welcome to Cleveland, a lovely place to have dinner, in the beautiful Ohio City area. Beautifully decorated inside and outside. Food menu was impressive in its variety and unique dishes. Service was excellent. Delicious meal! Street parking was free and easy to find on a weeknight. Thank you!!

    The staff are lovely but I find the food pretty average . The burger meat could have used more seasoning it did not have much of a flavor .

    Made a reservation for a bachelorette party and we had such a good time. The main dining room is beautiful and had Miss abstract art on the gray walls with natural light coming through the ceiling, reminded me of the rainforest cafe at the Cleveland zoo. Food was good but i expected more mushrooms in my mushroom chicken dish. I highly recommend the tamarind jalapeño margarita!

    Avocado salad, shrimp with toasted bread, heck's burger
    Zi D.

    Great ambiance and service, however the food fell extremely flat. We started off with their spacious margarita and Chardonnay, both decent. In terms of food, we got the avocado salad and shrimp appetizer, along with the heck's burger. The best thing about our meal was the French fries. Unfortunately the avocado in the avocado salad had that old brown avocado taste which was very unappetizing, and the shrimp looked like store bought frozen shrimp and tasted similar. The burger was also very bland and one note. We politely declined dessert. I think this place is a nice plate to sit out for a drink and maybe fries, the rest I would stay away from

    I can confidently say this is one of the best "Biscuit & Gravy" dishes I've ever had!! I loved how…read morethe restaurant creates a tower with cheesy scrambled eggs (enough where you can see the cheese pull with every scoop) as the foundation, followed by a fluffy biscuit to top it off. The dish is drenched with their delicious and creamy gravy, which complimented very well with the spinach, mushroom, and turkey sausage chunks (extra). This is a huge portion and can easily be shared by two people! As for my sweet craving, I ordered a side of their Kid's Spelt Pancake (essentially a smaller version of the entree size), and the pancakes were made perfectly! The pancakes were fluffy, layered with small apple chunks for a nice, crispy crunch, and topped with a homemade whipped cream -- I could literally eat their whipped cream for days! It was super creamy with a light sweet aftertaste. If you're looking for a dangerous savory sweet combination, look no further!! The service was quick and the staff were incredibly kind. Too bad I was only visiting or else this would be a staple in my brunch routine.

Beautiful mural on the wall near our table and there was a fresh flower arrangement on our table which we all appreciated. The space itself had a diner feel where there is a small number of tables and servers are flipping tables because of limited hours and a constant wait. We were told the wait was 30-40 minutes and I believe we sat after 30 minutes. Time flew by as it was a beautiful Sunday morning and we were all chatting outside.

The Rowley Inn is located in a nice neighborhood (Tremont) across the street from the Christmas Story house. I had three meals there. The first, loaded pierogis, was the ultimate comfort dish. Pierogis with potato centers were covered in diced kielbasa, bacon (yes, bacon), and covered in cheddar cheese. Ahhhhh. The others at my table raved about the kielbasa and pierogi dish. They also liked the beer selection. How do you know you have a great find? You think about the meal long after it is consumed. Next meal- breakfast. I had the kielbasa and pierogi omelet. Need I say more? Finally, we came back a third time and I ordered the burger. No burger place (save Chuckbox in Tempe, AZ) can match the Rowley burger. The burger is actually seasoned and cooked to order. I had it medium rare. Sheer perfection. Typing this review makes me sad because I live far away from Cleveland. If you are in The Land, you must drop everything you are doing to get to the Rowley Inn. It is a 8 minute drive from downtown.

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!
