Best Brunch Restaurants in University Circle

We dine at Cleveland Chop regularly and always have a fantastic experience. The food is always amazing and the drinks are fabulous as well. We often sit at the bar to eat and very much enjoy the atmosphere - the staff is wonderful and welcoming. Highly recommend!!

I’ve been to Betts a few times and I absolutely love it. The entire staff is incredibly kind and professional and the food is amazing! I will be coming back to try everything on the menu.

Our recent visit to this restaurant marked our first experience, and it had been on our culinary bucket list for quite some time. We were eager to see if it would live up to the hype. I am thrilled to report that the restaurant not only met but truly exceeded our expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and enthusiasm, setting a positive tone for the evening. The service was impeccable; our server was attentive without being intrusive, ensuring that all our needs were met promptly. The food was nothing short of excellent—each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. One of the standout features of our experience was the staff, who embodied different characters as they moved around the restaurant. Their interactions added a delightful layer of entertainment, making our dining experience not just a meal but a memorable event. This unique approach truly sets this restaurant apart from others we have visited. We left with full hearts (and stomachs) and are already looking forward to returning in the future! The only minor drawback was that the music played during our visit was slightly louder than we would have preferred, which made conversation a bit challenging at times. However, this did not detract significantly from our overall enjoyment. In summary, if you’re considering a visit here, I highly recommend it—you won’t be disappointed!

We had an amazing experience at Lulo Kitchen! The speakeasy is super funky and cool. The drinks are delicious (highly recommend the smoretini) as is the food. Service was outstanding and we met the owner, Mario, who was very welcoming and friendly. He and his wife designed the restaurant and his wife developed the menu. Our server was great and we met Andrea, a server who told us it was her first night on the job and she was so great and friendly that it was hard to believe this was her first job as a server. We will definitely be back. 10/10 recommend!

Wonderful seating and steaks cooked to perfection. Wife was very happy with my pick for our dinner arrangement. We go back again.
