Luckys Cafe

On our second trip to Cleveland, we stopped at a very well known restaurant in the Tremont area that you may have seen on the Food Network T.V. show, 'Diners, Drive-in, and Dives'. It goes by the name of Lucky's Cafe.




The interior of the restaurant was unique just as you expect from seeing the exterior of the restaurant. Every bit of food in the restaurant is homemade, and farm fresh. The entire menu looked absolutely appetizing.

After browsing we decided we couldn't pass up their famous biscuits and gravy called Biscuits for short. And we also decided on the Shipwreck, because it had so many different toppings we wanted to see how it would pan out.

BISCUITS AND GRAVY


Lucky's famous biscuits and gravy are out of this world. Crispy and flavorful scallion and cheese biscuits, topped with farm fresh scrambled eggs and covered in Lucky's sausage gravy and finished with a nice sprinkle of scallions. What sounds better than that? Each item of the dish has so many great qualities. The biscuits alone have such a great flavor of cheddar and scallions along with the crispy outside and fluffy inside. The eggs are clearly fresh and cooked perfectly, the gravy was phenomenal, it had a slight sharpness to go with the creaminess and the scallions gave it a nice mild kick. We've never had biscuits and gravy like this. You also get a nice side of grapes on the side which actually were quite good with this dish. The thirst quenching grapes were a nice pallet cleanser after a hefty portion of gravy, biscuits and potatoes.


SHIPWRECK


The Shipwreck was also a very delcious brunch dish. It consists of hash browns, eggs, seasonal veggies, bacon, cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of scallions. All of these farm fresh ingredients went so well together as you would expect. The potatoes were golden brown and cooked perfectly, the bacon and cheddar cheese was added at the perfect amount and the veggies gave a nice zestful flavor that really gives the entire plate a little extra something. Let's not forget about the very tasty farm fresh eggs. Just by taste alone you can tell that all of the ingredients had much quality that you can't find at any restaurant you visit. We were definitly pleased with everything we recieved at Lucky's.




One thing that's for sure, Cleveland is a great place to find good food and Lucky's Cafe is definitly on the top of list when it comes to a good breakfast/brunch. We are definitely coming back and trying more delcious food! See you next time, TASTY!

Roosters, it's an Ohio thing!

We are so proud to be from Ohio for so many reasons, and Roosters being one of them!  Roosters is a restaurant that only 'Ohioans' or Ohio visitors know about. It's not a five star fancy schmansy restaurant, just a tasty and fun place to eat at on a weekend or after a long days work. The famous slogan really speaks for itself "A fun, casual, joint", but it doesn't happen to mention the delicious food they have available!  We are regular Rooster customers, we usually go a couple of times a month. We usually stick with our favorites from the menu, but you really can't go wrong with anything they have to offer. Whether it's the loaded nachos, a burger, or their tender boneless wings dipped in your choice of TOP OF THE LINE wing sauce, you wont be disappointed. Most of the time we go with the boneless wings drenched in tangy sweet Thai chili sauce. The quality of the meat is unbeatable, but the big kicker for us is the sauce. The sweet

Breakfast Time at Table 1

Being Ohio natives we were happy to find an independent restaurant near us. It had Great decor, and the restaurant itself had a visually fun and hip/modern look (no surprise here.. most small businesses take this role). The lighting was at a relaxing level, they placed numbers above the tables to try and give a unique look. Enough about the decor though, lets move on to the important Tids! First things first, drink options. They had a small variety of drinks offering the usual selections - Soda, Water, Tea, O-J, Milk. We decided on getting the Cola, because we had a long drive ahead - we were headed for Amish Country in Millersburg OH. (Blog soon to come..) Our server seemed to be lacking some energy that day as well, I mean it was Saturday. She brought our drinks and we were surprised to see more than a simple cup, Coca-cola served to you in a jar! Enough mumbo about the drinks though, onward to the main course. We both opted for The eggs Benedict. We were unsure o

The Ale House May be Good for Whatever Ails You

All of you Ohio natives out there, if you havent been to Ale house 1890 in Lancaster Ohio you are definitely missing out. They have wonderful hamburgers and so many to menu items to choose from! All of these burgers are specially made with their own selection of fresh ingredients. They definitely know their way around a burger! They also have new specials  pretty frequently such as fried macoroni! (See review for fried Macoroni below!) so go in and don't miss them! Ale House 1890 Our first pick from the menu was the Barnyard Burger.  Barnyard Burger This burger was an absolute taste masterpiece! The first bite I took I could immediately taste the sweetness of marmalade and the grilled taste of the patty which collided with each other creating a  wonderful taste combination. The garlic aoli was a nice touch to the burger as well, better than mayonnaise if you ask me! Also the micro greens was a great bonus to an already delcious sandwich. And what is better on a b
