Yours Truly Restaurant

Hmmmm, I don’t think I will be returning to this place any time soon. Why?
Well, the food was bad, the restaurant loud (I mean really loud) and the booths were very uncomfortable. I swear there was a foot between me and the table!
On the plus side, our service was excellent.
I’m just disappointed that we blew $ 35.00 on lunch and didn’t enjoy it. I had a simple soup and sandwich – how bad could it be, right? Bland soup, and a very crunchy sandwich, no lettuce, no anything – dry as could be.
We walked out and said never again!

My wife and I love this place for breakfast. You can’t beat the atmosphere if you enjoy a small diner — like place. We often stop by while biking on the trail and it has some outdoor seating during good weather. The lunch and dinner menu is good as well but I prefer the breakfast offerings. The service has always been great as well.

Love this place! Good service, great food, we always recommend it. In fact, we drive 20 minutes, every week to come here!

I frequent this location pretty regular basis. It’s clean, affordable, and they make the tastiest Eggs Bruschetta. My only complaint is the service can be slow. If you are going for lunch make it a long one because you won’t get back to work in under an hour.

Met a friend for brunch last Saturday & was totally disappointed in not only the level of service but the quality and taste of the food. The omelette center was runny and uncooked and the extra side of «peppered bacon» greasy and under-​cooked. The noise level was HIGH and a chaotic environment topped it off.
I remember the first Yours Truly that opened in Shaker — now, that was service & good food! Rockside location needs quality control …

Stopped here this afternoon while on a towpath bike ride. They were very busy. We asked for an outdoor table and the hostess/​waitress saw that a table was just vacated so she went over herself and quickly cleaned it for us. She was very accommodating about an allergy issue and was just great throughout. For the most part we really enjoyed our food; I just didn’t care for the wafer fries too much. It is a casual diner-​type atmosphere.

Came here with a friend in March, Had the tuscan chicken, good diner food.

We went for dinner tonight, and I think the word that sums it up best is BLAH.
Two of us had the fish fry. Blah. Fish was almost devoid of flavor. The accompanying fries… blah. Again, tasted like nothing much. The cod dinner? Blah. Mild to the point of almost no taste, although the accompanying vegetables were good. People often talk of reasonable prices here, but we felt we paid way more than we should have for the food we got.
The Notso Fries appetizer was good, but it’s pretty hard to screw up a plate of fries covered with cheese and bacon.
Service-​wise, we had the kind of server that completely ignores the fact that anyone at your table is talking and just completely talks over you. That about sums it up.

We were staying in Independence and looking for something local, cheap and with lots of options. This place definitely did the trick. This was actually my second time here and both have been super good.
We weren’t super hungry so we got the soup and sandwich/​soup and salad option and it was the perfect size. I had the chicken noodle soup, which tasted like home. I also upped my salad and went with a cesar. I wasn’t a huge fan of the amount of pink peppercorns, but it was good nonetheless and much larger than expected.
At our table we also had the chicken salad sandwich, which was very fresh with apples and grapes. We also had their version of loaded fries which were really good! I like the flat shape of the potatoes and they sucked in the flavor really well.
In addition to the food, the people here were great. You could tell it was a local-​home-​type place and I would definitely go back.

Awesome service, food came out fast and it was delicious. I would recommend you try it. And they serve breakfast all day.

Nice place right off the towpath. Food wasn’t out of this world, but it was good. They serve smoothies and your basic food items. I got the buffalo chicken wrap and coleslaw, both were good. They also have a nice patio you can eat out on. I’ll continue to come here, more for the convenience of being right off the towpath, but again the food was solid.

Enjoyable atmosphere right on the canal. The old style diner feel is great. Very affordable and the omlets are great.

Great menu with several vegetarian options. The service is fast and friendly. Most items are scratch made (hummus, veggie burger). Family owned and operated. Very consistent. We had the hummus and two veggie burgers. All very flavorable. We also had sauted spinach and onions.

Considering how many times I’ve eaten here, I can’t believe I haven’t written a review by now! The nutshell version is– I really enjoy coming to this place. It has a diner feel, but with what I consider to be a little better quality than your average diner. I always sit up at the bar and get great service by the women up there. On a typical Saturday late morning, it wouldn’t be uncommon for their to be at least 5 screaming children, which is why I try to get there a little earlier on weekends. I’ve ordered off their lunch and breakfast menu, and I have to say I enjoy the breakfast the most, even though their burgers are pretty solid. My favorite thing to order is probably the eggs benedict– they serve it pretty traditionally with English muffins and Canadian bacon, and I’m never disappointed. Overall, I just like the feel of this place, as well as the consistency. I think it’s a good place for a casual lunch meeting, or a weekend brunch.

Friends frequently gather here as it’s a good east vs. west location and convenient to everyone. I have always had the notso omelet. I’m not an omelet kinda girl but this one is delish! Service is always hit or miss. They also struggle to accommodate groups of more than maybe six.

Yours Truly is a signature restaurant in the Cleveland area. The notso fries are THE BEST! The inside is decorated like a diner and aside from having a main entrance and a side one that is a bit unorganized, this place is great!

Great little place for a good breakfast!
The staff is friendly and always in a good mood. Orders are takin fast and the food is prepared quickly and it very good.
The coffee is hot and you cant go wrong with the Four Buck Breakfast.
Nice choice of omlettes to choose from.
Always clean!

DIRTY. The silverware was caked with dried food. One of our glasses of wine arrived with pithy fruit residue on the side of the glass and lipstick already on the glass! The server said the glass must have been intended for a mimosa?! Floors were sticky in some spots, greasy in others. My chicken was rubbery and undercooked in certain spots. Officially done with this place. It’s filthy and the food is sub-​par. The Board of Health needs to shut this place down.

Monday late morning brunch… place was 90% crowded during that time (always a good sign). Our large party was seated almost immediately, however.
The food was good… I had the corned beef hash w/​2 eggs. Nicely done. Everyone else (including the five kids in our party) seemed happy with their food. Refills were frequently made, too.
Only complaint was how long it took the food to get out from the kitchen. We were running a little late for our movie as a result, and we tried to order pretty quickly. Minor issue.

Stopped by to have breakfast here on my visit to Cleveland and it’s a nice diner/​breakfast restaurant. The menu was diner-​like, but it was a bit fancier than a diner. There are also a few TVs inside for those looking to catch their news or sports. It was a Sunday morning at 10am and for a party of 4 we waited for about 15 minutes, which wasn’t all that bad. The restaurant was pretty big, with some counter seating and outdoor seating available as well. I took a look at the menu and it was extensive! There were tons of items on there and those menus are the ones that get me because I can stare at them FOREVER and not be able to make up my mind.
I eventually settled on the Killit Skillet with a side of Corned Beef Hash. The Skillet came with two eggs (mine were sunny side up), bacon, sausage, golden hash browns and a toasted ciabatta. I couldn’t complain about a thing on my order as everything was perfect. I especially loved the ciabatta as it was toasted with some butter on it. The side of Corned Beef Hash didn’t look like the most appetizing side, but it was still good. The service was also excellent as our waitress was very accommodating with our requests during our visit. A solid breakfast choice if anyone is ever in the area.
