| - If you work in the this side of town, e.g. University Circle, Case, UH, Clinic; then this is a recommended place for a get-away lunch with a relaxed environment and pace. There's a lot of natural light -- useful if you've worked indoors all morning. I eat here often, and more so on stressful weeks, LOL. Or, if you're here on a job interview, and they take you to this place, all the better.
Features:
1. A chef that can custom make pasta or carve a roast (they have a different kind every day). For breakfast, custom omelettes or eggs to your liking -- a must have for a breakfast buffet.
2. It is a well-balanced buffet with a great selection of leafy and non-leafy salads. Entrees have a least one each of red meat, chicken, fish and vegetables. If the carb happens to be polenta, then you're in luck. There's always soup. Entrees are always kept hot but never dried out or burned, always well-cooked, with just great quality and care for the food overall.
3. Free valet if you eat here. Just need the ticket validated by the restaurant. Same with Table 45.
4. The menu items are also very good -- but the buffet is the special feature here.
5. A lot of Cleveland Clinic doctors around (who are required to hang and check the lab coats at the door). So if you choke or have an emergency, there's a high likelihood you'll survive.
Downsides: Food coma at 2PM and loss of productivity
