Our mushroom flatbreads were wonderful! The combination of savory and sweet was perfect for our lunch. Coffee: could have drunk a whole pot myself!

From start to finish this restaurant was amazing. The staff was very friendly and once they found out we were there for our wedding dinner they made it more special. The actors that walk around are very friendly and funny. Very interactive place all together. The food was amazing we ordered other plates to go home with and they still tasted just as fresh!

Get the grilled avocado, the Wagyu short ribs and the Japanese milk bread!! You wont be disappointed. And ask for Marleina- she is so fun and a great waitress. Chef Whalen and crew have amazing dishes- you probably cant go wrong with anything on the menu. The entire staff is great and the ambiance is wonderful.

Great food, wonderful location, chef works to accommodate dietary restrictions and intolerances by providing delicious alternatives. Shannon our server was a 10 out of 10! We've been going there for over 30 years due to the location by Cleveland clinic, however the service from Shannon was phenomenal and he listen and understood are dietary needs and communicate well with chef so that we've had a meal not only great for being by a hospital, but just being wonderful at a restaurant in general. Note, Shannon has been there 22 years and provides extraordinary service. *Realize that the menu posted online is not the current menu. Either call ahead or just be flexible when you get there as the menu will differ. The food is all delicious, with varieties of protein including fish, chicken, beef, and vegetarian. All the food we had was flavorful and beautifully presented. The environment is quiet and pleasant with discrete lighting but still easy to see. There is plenty of room between the tables for easy navigation of wheelchairs. The seating is very comfortable and they decor is lovely. This is being written in 2026 and in celebration of the intercontinentals 80th anniversary, there are seasonal changes to the menu to reflect global tastes. However, there remains standard American fare so you're sure to find something to enjoy. The desserts are very good. The sorbet seem to be Haagen-Dazs. When we were there it was lemon and raspberry which were lovely served with fresh berries. We asked if we could have some lemon curd put on top which they had that made it an even more wonderful dessert, very refreshing. We would recommend table 45.
