Top Best French Restaurants in Cleveland

"One of the only places downtown with a rooftop patio, The Greenhouse Tavern is a gem located on East 4th Street. Although you can't usually eat on the patio, you can always grab a drink before dinner. A great place to stop for a happy hour drink, you can sit close to the wall and watch as people walk to and from Indians games or to one of the other restaurants East 4th."

"Otherwise, some of the best dinner spots in the city include Il Rione Pizzeria, Edwins, Gigi’s on Fairmount, Red, the Steakhouse, Salt+, and The Greenhouse Tavern. If you’re looking for a particularly fancy option, you might want to make a reservation at one of the most romantic restaurants in Cleveland!"

"L’Albatros, a French brasserie on the outskirts of Case Western Reserve, is one of chef Zack Bruell’s six restaurants in Cleveland. From the outside it looks like a small carriage house, but the interior is deceptively large and completely modern. The walls are white-painted brick and the furniture is similarly stark white, which is offset by a sleek black marble bar and striking artwork."

"Located in Cleveland’s historic Shaker Square shopping center, Edwins is a restaurant with a mission: the staff is comprised almost entirely of formerly incarcerated men and women. Far from being a charity stunt, the eatery produces consistently excellent cuisine in the classic French style. Diners can choose from classic French dishes like braised rabbit or grouper wrapped in crispy potatoes, or they can partake in the spectacle of a burger prepared tableside."

"Whenever I want to feel like I’ve stepped out of Cleveland and onto an exquisite French sidewalk cafe, I go to this little French bistro in Ohio City. Specializing in French classics like escargot, crepes, cassoulet, and more, you can enjoy one of Cleveland’s best restaurants along with its cute patio out front of the restaurant. Pair your meal with a glass of French wine, and you have all the ingredients for a great al fresco meal."

"To start, get the assiette du Fromage with three French kinds of cheese, crackers, fresh fruits, and currants. Next, you could order the delicious and classic cassoulet or beef bourguignon, but some favorites here include the ratatouille crepe and the cheesy Croque monsieur. This establishment is perfect for brunch, lunch, or dinner."

"Big Al’s Diner is a classic hole-in-the-wall diner serving simple food in oversized portions, but there’s something to be said about the classic diner, an American breakfast staple. Highlights include their traditional corned beef hash, judged as one of the best wake up calls on the Food Network’s ‘The Best Thing I Ever Ate’."
