    Food and atmosphere were great but I was disappointed by the presentation of their cocktails and taste for what they are charging. I took my mom out to dinner and she was looking forward to having a Bloody Mary and she doesn’t usually complain but it was served in a cheap glass, had limited garnishments, barely any flavor and the celery on there was the end piece and not even fresh. I ordered a holiday spritzer and it was way too strong and no flavor at all and also lacked presentation. I barely go out for drinks so when I do I expect a good one, especially if I’m paying for it. Wish the drinks matched the quality of the food and experience.

    We always love dining with Heck’s cafe. Usually we order takeout but on this visit we brought our niece for dine-in before a show at Playhouse Square. She had Brie for the first time and our server was happy to accommodate her request for a simple, plain cheeseburger. The food was great as always. Our server could have paid a little more attention to refill drinks but it appeared he was also working the bar. We would recommend Heck’s to anyone in Cleveland or who is visiting. It’s delicious, homemade food for a good value. Parking can be a challenge- look for spots on all surrounding side streets. Make a reservation if you are on a timeline.

    We had a Saturday night party of 6. The server was fantastic, drinks were delicious, all of our food was amazing. I had papardelle, some had burgers, one had the amazing salmon. We can't wait to come back and try more things!

    I was so grateful Hecks would take a reservation and they were ready for us and seated us in a great spot. Eleven of us gathered at Hecks for a Christmas kick off dinner. Service and food was top notch. Pacing of our meal and drinks spot on for a group trying to socialize and relax. Highly recommend Hecks for the quality of the service and food. Their coffee is also worth a trip.

    Had great service, great food and do try the Lychee Mule cocktails. It’s really good! Parking is a bit of a challenge but we found a lot a few blocks down towards West side Market. A comfortable walk to Hecks. We sure will be back.

    The bar area was SO LOUD it was miserable. If the food wasn’t so good we would have left. We had to scream at each other to talk. It was just 4 of us and we could hardly hear each other. It was deafening. I have never been anywhere that loud for dinner. Heck’s…do something about that. It was extremely uncomfortable. Food A++ though.

    The food here is fantastic. I had a mushroom burger with a garlic aioli. It was hands down the best burger I have ever had. We ate on a Saturday so we had their brunch menu. Everything was delicious. It is an energetic space as it is full. I would definitely recommend a reservation.

    We had an early dinner at Heck's with some friends from Chicago before heading off to a show at Playhouse Square. We are used to the quality at Hecks but our friends were not and were very impressed. Just as my wife and I do our friends loved the quaint old building as well as the wonderful food. What impressed all of us was our waitress. She was very efficient and thorough in her duties but also extremely friendly and personable. In short she was one of the best servers we've had anywhere. By the time we left for our show she had made us feel like we had made a new friend.

    Visiting from out of town. Chose Heck’s for an impromptu reunion with a group of colleagues because of the ambience. The service was stellar, the ambience was great, we did not need to shout to hear one another, and the food was stupid delicious. I actually interrupted conversation at one point to pass around my food because it was so outrageously, stupidly delicious. And a friend—a foodie and amazing cook in her own right—was equally impressed and reflecting on her burger the next day. I will be thinking about that incredible meal and special time together for a very long while. Thank you!
