Another satisfied visit at Bar Simon! This time they surprisingly had mint so a strawberry lemonade mojito it was! Yay! Service is always exceptional here and they never complain we camp out here for an hour or so and work. Sit yourself makes it even faster to find a corner table or electrical plug close by. We always stop here when traveling through Cleveland. read more

Ordered to-go salad and sandwich, waited for more than 20 minutes, turned out not that kind of impressive food.

Disappointed! Sat down expecting kielbasa and pierogi but no! Just pretty much standard airport bar fare

The food was fresh, perfectly cooked and seasoned! I had the hot honey grilled chicken sandwich on brioche w/ Lola fries and my mom had the pastrami melt that thoroughly enjoyed as well! read more

The service sucks. Idk why our experience might have been different from most reviews but the blonde waitress today truly must have had better things to do than work her airport restaurant job. read more

I think the establishment suffers from overwhelming expectations. We were excited to visit Michael Symon restaurants while in Cleveland, but unfortunately this is just a basic airport eatery. The food wasn't bad, the restaurant was clean and the servers were pleasant. If I went in with airport food expectations, I would have been fine. It works if you are looking for bite during a layover, just not iron chef material. read more

I love having such good food for breakfast at the airport. They open early (we ate at 6:30 AM) Tsalmon was delicious and the potato pancakes were crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked on the I side. The nice mimosa was the perfect combo for my flight home. read more

Not worth it at all. Our server was non existent, food and drinks haphazardly thrown together, and everything was extremely overpriced. Paid like $75 for 2 drinks and 3 items that was incredibly subpar. Good thing we had priority pass and $56 dollars of that was paid for... otherwise I'd be even more annoyed.

Bar Symon - Cobb salad and parm fries - American Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

I had to try a TV chef's restaurant that I passed by in my travels. It gets docked one star because of the price but that's to be expected at an airport. The larger review is for the smash burger I had. I don't think there was anything smashed about it because it looked huge. If you're looking for "the burger" of burgers, goo-wie cheese, greasy patties (2), soft bun, and tangy sauce, this is it. I'm sure it will max your caloric intake for the day. I skipped the fries for that reason. read more

12/31/21 -- a quick mileage run to solidify United status for 2022 brought us on a successful EWR-CLE same-day round trip adventure. Didn't even leave the airport. In the more or less 120 minutes we had in CLE we were determined to get as good of a lunch as possible, so Bar Symon was already our intended destination. The active runway view was a favorite, the selection of beer on tap was notable, and we really did enjoy the food. We started with the wings ("mild" was recommended simply because I don't think there was a hotter option (or it was not presented to us)) and ended up being very flavorful. Loved that super chunky bleu cheese. For lunch we had one chicken sandwich and one Smoked Turkey Rachel -- the Rachel being the favorite by a long shot. The fries were hot and salty and everything paired well with cold beer. The one mixed drink we did get was a little sweet so if that's not your vibe I'd say keep it simple, or stick to beer. The kicker? Bar Symon participates in Priority Pass, so we got $56 off the check just for going to a place we were going to go anyways. Next time we find ourselves in CLE, we'll be back. read more

Bar Symon - Coffee Chipotle dry rub - American Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

I stopped in here to grab a quick lunch before heading to my connecting flight and I have to say the service is on point! Three times the servers came to check and ensure everything was okay even though I seated myself at the furthest end of the restaurant to avoid the crowds. The servers couldn't be friendlier than they already are. They make a killer mimosa and no ... I wasn't inebriated while writing this I ordered the COBB Salad and they were generous with the avocado (I love avocados) I also ordered the chili and if you like chili you will like theirs. Spring for a bowl instead of a cup read more

Had a couple hours to kill before my flight going back home to Phoenix so I decided hit this place up since it was almost dinner time. Stood at the entrance for a couple minutes before one of the servers sat me down in the corner. Ordered the Sweet Sriracha Wings and Grilled Chicken Sandwich. The Sweet Sriracha Wings($15.99) were surprisingly very good for airport food. The 8 pieces I got were a perfect mixture of sweet and spicy. I don't know why more restaurants that serve wings don't have this sauce as an option. It's basically just honey and sriracha. The Grilled Chicken Sandwich($13.99) was super good! What made this sandwich really stand out was the sourdough bread they had it on. It was buttered and grilled to a crispy perfection! Every bite I was savoring and oh, the chicken was not so bad either. Service was a bit slow. My server checked on me only a couple times. I needed a refill on my water and had to wait awhile before it got done. Lastly, getting the check took some time as well. Overall, I was originally planning on just eating half the wings and half the sandwich thinking that it would fill me up but because the taste was so good I ended up killing all of it! If I am ever in this Cleveland airport ever again and have enough time I am definitely getting the same again! You just gotta deal with the slow service. Yelp 2023 Review #3 896 overall read more

BIG portions. Decent airport food! I was pleasantly surprised. Service was quick and kind. If you sit by the rails that line the restaurant there are outlets on the rails so you can charge your devices. Super convenient. I split the kale caesar salad and the maple bacon wings. Both were enjoyable! Kale didn't taste bitter and the dressing was tasty. Wings were crunchy and the dry rub was very good. Almost a "sugary" coating, but in a good way. All of the dishes that I saw looked pretty good. A good location for a sit down meal at an airport. read more

I've been to this location a few times. Considering it is an airport restaurant....good choice. The first time I ate here they had just announced a new limited time special and it was the Reuben sandwich. I got that with the parmesan fries. It was absolutely outstanding! Perfectly cooked, fries were excellent, sandwich was perfectly toasted and inside was melty cheesy goodness. I would rate the place a 5+ stars based on that visit. I was so excited when I was back 6 weeks later that I went in and got the same thing and it was not toasted well, the cheese was not melted and the ratios of the sandwich were off. I would have given the restaurant a 2 out of 5 for that. Next time they no longer had the reuben....bummer. So I got a bacon smashburger. It was good....the parmesan rosemary fries always hit. I'd say average is about 3.75 stars. Going there again tonight so I'll leave an update. read more

I got priority pass credit and used it to-go. I ordered a cobb salad and the Broccoli cheddar bowl of soup, which totaled less than $28 I guess because I didn't get anything charged additionally. Probably can't judge this place by these healthier options, but they were just standard. The service was very nice though. read more

This review for Bar Symon is well overdue. My husband and I eat here nearly every time before a flight. They've got great food and beer options, and they are partners with Priority Pass. Also, the service is always excellent. All the servers are super nice, and the kitchen gets your food to you in a hurry. I'd definitely recommend stopping in for a quick bite or drink on your way through the airport. read more

I was in the airport and love Michael Symon on the Food Network, so eating at his establishment is a no brainer. I kept things simple and ordered the cheeseburger and fries with a drink of sarsaparilla and a wonderful chocolate dessert. The burger and bun were very tasty, the fries were nice and crisp, and the dessert was wonderful. Sure this is "airport food" but if you are arriving or departing, this is a great place for lunch. read more

Okay cute little sit down place to chill while waiting for your flight! They have burgers, sandwiches, a couple types of salad, and some beer and cocktails too. The most expensive salad is a Cobb salad for $17 but they have a couple cheaper salad options as well. The sandwiches here are fairly reasonable but also kind of large! If we could do it again can I would've split a sandwich between both of us! Also, the burgers and sandwiches don't come with French fries, so those are extra, but they're pretty dang good. You get a ton of French fries so you can definitely split an order of them between 2-3 people. The servers are decent and organized as well and the tables are pretty clean. Servers are wearing masks intermittently and tables are fairly clean! read more

For an airport restaurant it is pretty good. I got the wings and I liked them a lot. Seems like everyone was enjoying the burgers as well. It's about $15 per plate for whatever you get. The drinks were really expensive, the mule was $16. It was very smart to be part of the priority pass. I will eat here every time just for that reason. The one thing that is annoying is the seating, it's really tight, even for an airport restaurant. I feel like they need to expand a bit. It's worth it, get the wings, fun stuff before a flight. read more

I came in here upon 2 days of travel delays that snowmagedon caused the northeast. So I came in for 2 meals over 2 days, breakfast and dinner. And I also must preface saying my meals were free with priority pass. ($28 off your meal per person) Breakfast Service here is definitely a bit slow, but I got an orange juice and tried to order the pulled pork burrito. I was informed they were out of tortillas, but would gladly put it in on a challah roll for me like they did their burgers. The pork was a hair on the dry side, but tasted really awesome The egg portion was huge and was also perfectly cooked, I hate it when restaurants overcook the eggs so that they were tough. The roll was really soft on the inside with a nice texture. It came with a side of home fries which were just ok, hard to mess up home fries. Left the waitress tip since it is not included with priority pass and then resumed waiting for a flight home Dinner When I came in for dinner, it was REALLY busy but managed to grab a seat at the bar. I ordered a Lola Burger and Poutine Fries. Now this probably wasn't the best idea since the fries portion was HUGE and both things involved zero vegetables, but I digress. The burger was cooked perfectly medium like I ordered it and was really juicy. The egg on top gave it a really creamy texture when you bit in and the yoke ran everywhere. Which delicious, it was really messy. The pickled onions gave it a little crunch and some acidity. And then there was bacon, how can you not love bacon on a burger. The poutine fries were just as good as the poutine I've eaten in Montreal and quebec. Fries were really crispy and the toppings were really nice. Just a tad salty overall for my taste. Definitely worth stopping in here for a meal...especially since its (nearly) free! read more

I was flying out on a weekend afternoon and had a bit less than an hour before my flight. I got their burger with fries. Service was prompt and friendly. My burger was also cooked just right. The fries had a good texture, but also had a rather unique/odd flavor (at first I thought ginger, but rosemary would probably make more sense...). It wasn't bad - just not my cup of tea. My only gripe is that we were never informed that fries were an extra cost. We were only casually asked "do you want fries with that" as if it were a default side. Luckily, I had priority pass, so it really didn't matter. Other than that, Bar Symon is a solid place to come for airport food. Wouldn't mind coming again. read more

Priority Pass approved restaurant! My guest and I were pleasantly surprised at how well this full service airport restaurant turned out to be. While the menu wasn't large (you're in an airport), they had several options. We took advantage of the burger section as photos of them on Yelp looked tasty. I was really to see the impossible burger available! Additional options like a gluten free bun were available as well! I went with the Lolla Burger on a GF bun with the truffle fries! All around it was very good and did the job! Drinks: menu boasts several options including some good craft cocktails! Next time you're around, stop by for a burger/meal and a drink! Plenty of TV's here as well! read more

This was a quick stop before boarding the plane and only because this place has just been added to the list of Priority Pass restaurants where one can eat for free (if you have the credit card that allows you to belong this exclusive club for $450 a year) The Chickpeas Salad was really good, the vegetables were fresh, crunchy and the combination with chickpeas made it a great choice. Although I felt that the salad wouldn't be filling enough and went and ordered a side order of poutine, I must admit that the salad is more than enough for a person of my size (And I can eat a double quarter pounder with fries and dessert!) The poutine is a Midwest version, not the Canadian version. The nice thing about this dish is the addition of gravy on top of the cheese curds. Really really good, like anything that you add gravy to. The waitress suggested a local beer, I don't remember the name but it was very hoppy and wheaty and very delicious. Service was EXCELLENT, with a huge smile, great recommendations and very quickly, so definitely will visit again next time we're in the airport. read more

In the Cleveland Airport. Best sandwiches and service we have had in awhile. It is in an airport!! Selections are limited but delicious. Rosemary fries - always a go to at Michael Symon restaurants. Share them. You get a lot of food!!! I still miss Lola's but love that you can grab delicious food at the airport. And our server, wish I had his name. Delightful! Fast, efficient. Made sure our condiments were full. I usually have to rush through this airport. Glad we finally had the chance to stop here. read more
