Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Downtown Cleveland / Playhouse Square

It was amazing! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was gorgeous, and the owner (who spoke with us for a while) was extremely personable and kind. 10/10 would go back again.

We sat at the bar for our meal and had exceptional service and amazing food. We ordered the nightly specials, Scallop appetizer, Lobster with saffron risotto, and Ribeye with roasted potato & broccoli. We took desert home because we were too full but wanted to try some of their offerings. The place had a great vibe, and the staff were all friendly.

We really enjoyed the service and unique food. Pay attention as a service tip us automatically added but well worth it.

I enjoyed an exceptional dining experience at a recommended restaurant; Fahrenheit... The decor, cuisine, and service were outstanding—I truly struck gold tonight! Here’s how it went. Fahrenheit opens with a small loaf of focaccia that sets the bar high: served warm, accompanied by honey, truffle oil, and olive oil subtly spiced with chili pepper flakes. Each bite of this rich, aromatic bread hints at the culinary creativity to come. When I requested fresh-squeezed lemonade, they delivered with a perfectly tart and refreshing glass—a gesture that signals the level of hospitality here. The best places always accommodate, and Fahrenheit makes it effortless. Their take on Mexican street corn? A reimagined soup, velvety like a corn chowder but brimming with depth. Corn, sour cream, shaved parmesan, bacon, and a medley of onions, cilantro, jalapeño, and spices—all come together in a luscious blend that’s as visually appealing as it is bold in flavor. For the main course, I opted for the Vietnamese Pork Chop. The meat was tender and flavorful, and when paired with the lemongrass fried rice and sautéed mango, the plate became a playground of textures and flavors, striking that perfect balance between complementary and contrasting. Imagine the thrill of fireworks on your taste buds. Despite a satisfying meal, the dessert menu was too tempting to ignore. I decided to linger, making space for the Sizzling Blueberry Cobbler. Served warm with a cornmeal cake biscuit, sweet blueberry compote, vanilla bean gelato, and a bourbon-brown sugar Chantilly, this dish crowned the meal in indulgent style. Garnished with edible flowers, it was almost too beautiful to eat—almost.

It was a bit slow to get our order and food in but otherwise a great dinner. We will be back
