Chris’ Restaurant

This diner is in walking distance from where my boyfriend lives and well to prove my laziness we drove. The parking lot made us assume it was packed but once we got inside there were still a decent amount of places to sit. You grab your own menus and sit wherever you like.
This is a true diner as the only computer system is to swipe credit cards. The servers write down everything and the kitchen uses an order wheel for all orders. I ordered the Country Skillet that included sausage, bacon, onions, hash browns, 2 eggs cooked to order and a lot of cheese (which I like) and 2 pieces of toast. It pretty much was a delicious mess plate! I don’t know what kind of sausage they used but it was much better than the brown sausage links I am used to seeing in diners. My boyfriend ordered the Gyro Omelette. The weird thing about this omelette is that it only includes the gyro meat and feta. He had to ask for tomato, onion and cucumber sauce. It must have been good though because he ate the whole thing.
The only thing diners should be cautious about when eating here is that the coffee was one of the worst that we have tasted and at $ 2 it’s $ 2 a cup to boot. Opt for a different beverage because other than that the menu is large and the food is good!

First time to Chris’ restaurant. My perch dinner was very good. Vegetable soup was really good. Coleslaw was good. Chris’ has been there over 40 yrs. Some brand new cushioned benches would really make a wonderful PLUS to Chris’. Then, customers could really enjoy their food, in COMFORT. #pleasemakerenovation

Wife and I had a good meal here. Pleasantly surprised at good food, large portions and low prices. Not gourmet dining, but good lunch fare. We will be back.

Food was fair but lightly poached eggs were almost hard boiled. And the waitress was less than friendly. Perhaps it is because we aren’t from the area. Don’t try to change the order from either pancakes or french toast to just plain toast or the waitress will almost bite your head off with a stern NO.

Amazing breakfast spot that I’ve been coming to since I was a little kid. They have the best food and such a friendly staff. We came for breakfast and our food came out within 5 minutes of ordering it! I love love coming here and have the best memories eating here as a kid. We would always come to Chris’ restaurant after church. They are always so busy and you know that’s when it’s really good. They’ve been open forever and I’m so happy I can come here when I visit my parents in Lorain.
The inside is very clean and cozy. It hasn’t changed in so many years and that’s what I love about it. I had the veggie omelette with home fries and it was so good. You also can’t beat the price. For my mom and I to have breakfast it was only $ 10! Everything is home made and fresh. It’s like grandma’s cooking. :) They also have specials certain days of the week that include chicken paprikash and cabbage rolls. I would highly recommend coming here for breakfast — you definitely won’t regret it!

eggs, sausages, hashbrowns the greasier the better. Chris’ has been there a long time. It has a wierd old diner smell. A mix of grease, mold and worn out everything. Havn’t been since my friend had to fumigate bedbugs and roaches 50 feet away at the motel and rowhouse.

Never a bad meal. Good, fresh food. I had the salmon dinner with my choice of potatoes and vegetable along with a soup. Fresh coffee, good desserts and great, consistent service! Let me not forget to mention the good sized portions! Try the chicken paprikash, cobb salad, skillet breakfast, any omelette and/​or the monster burger!

we went there over a year ago. We walked in the door and there were all these older people giving my husband the stink eye. He is a little darker complected than they were. We ignored it. We ordered food. It was adequate. HOWEVER… he ordered fish and chips and it was literally the same triangle shaped fish you get from the frozen boxes in the store. In short, there food was nothing to write home about and the service was mildly adequate. The atmosphere was uncomfortable. It’s not cool to be stared at by bigoted ignorant people. All in all, I won’t be returning.

Had the tilapia. Tasted like perch. I liked this place much better when it was Paul’s. Its still better than Pete’s down the street
