Best Lunch Restaurants in Downtown Cleveland / Playhouse Square

Great food and a fantastic server. Real close to the theater, just a short walk.

Great service, great food, great atmosphere! I’ll be back!!

Special event, 5 course meal with 5 pairings of Trappist ales. Great, friendly, fun. Unique restaurant, with a mission.

Had never been there. Food was great. Service was fast. Would definitely go back. It’s a 2 minute walk to the theatre’s.

If I ranked restaurants of all time, the serve at Centro would easily be a contender in my mind. My guest and I were celebrating his birthday, and were shocked when he was immediately greeeted my name by two servers upon entry. We had cocktails, an appetizer and mains. As we were wrapping up, we were surprised with the most thoughtful dessert at no charge to us. The restaurant had asked for my guest’s dessert preferences, and delivered by bringing out not one but two of the foods I had listed. When the brought out the dessert - a scrumptious cheesecake with a bowl of ice cream - the live jazz musician started playing the song, “Happy Birthday”. Overall, the cost of the meal was reasonable, knowing it would be a treat for the occasion. We valeted for only $10 & stayed at the 9 long enough to go to one the Vault bar as well as the rooftop. We can’t wait to go back! Aside from the subtle jazz, it was quiet and ambient. Servers were friendly and knowledgeable of the menu with recommendations, which we took. The food was amazing! Although pricey, the portion size was worth it.
