L'ALBATROS BRASSERIE + BAR REVIEWS

We stopped here after the Museum for a nice night out. We were rewarded with one of our now favorite restaurants. Everything about this place is excellent. The service was very attentive, food was delicious with a great variety of choices. The atmosphere was nicely cut up and defined. It was cozy and the ceilings had drop pads to soften the noise. It was easy to converse at normal voices and feel secluded in our own conversations. Honestly I could not say enough good things about our this place. Coat check, professional, open kitchen, quality food, and did I mention a very attentive staff. Excellent!!

First time here. Came before a Severance Hall event due to the close proximity to the venue. Can't say a bad thing about the place. We sat at the bar. Our bartenders were attentive and nice to chat with. The drinks were all very good. The food was also delicious. Definitely will come back! Hopefully, we will have more time to try and enjoy their desserts.

Unbelievable service! Love seeing the kitchen when you first walk in. Food....best I've ever had. Incredible experience for a special holiday dinner. I felt like I was in New York City!

EDWINS LEADERSHIP & RESTAURANT INSTITUTE REVIEWS

Took my wife here for her birthday. While we really don't seek out French food, we heard the place was good. We were absolutely blown away by the creativity and flavor of our dishes! The Nicoise salad was incredible! Entrees were amazing as well and we finished with the table side banannas foster. We got to watch the pressed duck next to us. Definitely a 'must go' place!! I took off a couple points as our server (we could tell he was new) barely said 10 words to us the entire dinner and had no knowledge of the menu or drinks. He was a little nervous I think. We kinda had server-envy as we could see some others were really engaging other patrons. We'll be back with a table full of friends to share next time!

Almost everyone who works here has served time and is now serving/making food to rehabilitate their lives. All categories...5-stars plus. It's a must dine in a great location. Get the seafood sausage!

Seafood Sausage appetizer was outstanding. Same with the rabbit dish main course. A memorably great meal with excellent service.

LE PETIT TRIANGLE CAFE REVIEWS

I am so impressed by this place!! The restaurant we were planning to go to for brunch was closing soon so we spontaneously called this French cafe and they were able to accommodate us despite being busy. We ordered the Steak and Boursin sandwich, the Mushroom D’auvergne Complete savory crepe (with brie cheese instead of blue cheese), the side of ratatouille, and the side of sausage. Everything was outstanding - we were so glad we ended up here and both agreed it would be difficult to order different items on the menu next time because of how much we loved our food! They also had many sweet options, including delicious looking sweet crepes, but we usually lean more savory. The cafe itself is definitely petite, which I honestly prefer for noise level and the feeling of intimacy when dining out. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this cafe to others!

We were visiting Cleveland from out of state. We decided on Le Petit Triangle Cafe as it was recommended by the Inn where we were staying and walking distance. Since it was the weekend of Valentine's Day, we had low expectations that a table would be available without a reservation. Fortunately, we were able to get a table after a short wait, which we spent trying cocktails at the bar. Once seated, the service was fast and friendly. The food was delicious and satisfying. I would definitely recommend Le Petit Triangle Cafe for a cozy dinner date.

Incredible food and atmosphere. The Moroccan lamb balls were absolutely delicious. The steak was great. The mezze platter was also great.
