Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Cedar-Riverside

This is a quaint neighborhood restaurant. It has an excellent unique cocktail menu. The dinner menu has a great selection of lite bites and hearty meals. The menu is creative and the portions are large. The staff is very welcoming. There is a laid back but hip vibe. There is also a great selection of wine.

Good Day Cafe is always a great choice for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. The menu selection is loaded with enticing options and includes inventive twists on classic old-school items like meat loaf and pot pies. They're also one of the very few places in town to serve up a delicious 'Nawlin's style Beignet, and they do a great classic Popover available with the dinner menu. This place is popular and can get quite busy. Reservations suggested!

Wonderful experience doing something a bit more unique. This staff went above and beyond after our experience when a piece of jewelry was lost there. They made sure to help find such when the experience was being cleaned and helped save the day. Cannot rave about the above and beyond experience and help they’ve offered.

We made reservations on Valentine's Day and selected a prix fixe option. Being vegetarian, this is a relatively new favorite. Our server, Thomas, was very attentive and made sure what we ordered was indeed vegetarian. The first delivered item was not. That was quickly corrected. Overall, the Stray Dog is definitely worth the drive.

It was a nice place, service was pretty good for a Friday night. I'll admit there is no great parking in this area. So many spaces are blocked off for valet for another restaurant. This made it more of a hassle for folks who don't typically come to this area.
