Best American Restaurants in Downtown Cleveland

Very very nice restaurant The service was excellent…friendly efficient and server knowledgeable. Food delicious! The only comment I have is (and the server warned us) they are a steakhouse but my son ordered pasta and the serving was extremely small and not inexpensive. Would like to see larger portioned non-meat entrees on the menu.

Everything was amazing!! Our server Jayonna was great!! We got a shrimp cocktail app Then each had steaks and the Gouda bacon potatoes and creamed spinach and it was perfect! Numerous staff members came to our table to ask how everything was and if we needed anything which was also nice! Overall excellent experience for my birthday dinner! Best meal I’ve had in awhile!! Highly recommend

Professional restauranters are running this restaurant. This is old school service. Front end staff is pleasant and knowledgeable. Managers are attentive. Bartender is a pro. Our apps (we had 4 I'm embarrassed to admit) were excellent. The crab app and the mushroom gnocchi app (available in bar) were outstanding. My entre (grouper) was very salty but I will give that a pass because everything else was excellent. If you are seeking an old school fine dining experience with knowledgeable and personable wait staff in Cleveland, it is basically down to Johnny's on Fulton and Blue Point. I put this place on a level with several first rate restaurants in Manhattan and Washington D.C.

Amazing food and service! This was our first trip to Cleveland so we looked on Trip Advisor for a recommendation. We loved it. Friendly servers. Comfortable atmosphere.

I enjoyed an exceptional dining experience at a recommended restaurant; Fahrenheit... The decor, cuisine, and service were outstanding—I truly struck gold tonight! Here’s how it went. Fahrenheit opens with a small loaf of focaccia that sets the bar high: served warm, accompanied by honey, truffle oil, and olive oil subtly spiced with chili pepper flakes. Each bite of this rich, aromatic bread hints at the culinary creativity to come. When I requested fresh-squeezed lemonade, they delivered with a perfectly tart and refreshing glass—a gesture that signals the level of hospitality here. The best places always accommodate, and Fahrenheit makes it effortless. Their take on Mexican street corn? A reimagined soup, velvety like a corn chowder but brimming with depth. Corn, sour cream, shaved parmesan, bacon, and a medley of onions, cilantro, jalapeño, and spices—all come together in a luscious blend that’s as visually appealing as it is bold in flavor. For the main course, I opted for the Vietnamese Pork Chop. The meat was tender and flavorful, and when paired with the lemongrass fried rice and sautéed mango, the plate became a playground of textures and flavors, striking that perfect balance between complementary and contrasting. Imagine the thrill of fireworks on your taste buds. Despite a satisfying meal, the dessert menu was too tempting to ignore. I decided to linger, making space for the Sizzling Blueberry Cobbler. Served warm with a cornmeal cake biscuit, sweet blueberry compote, vanilla bean gelato, and a bourbon-brown sugar Chantilly, this dish crowned the meal in indulgent style. Garnished with edible flowers, it was almost too beautiful to eat—almost.
