Stani’s Family Restaurant: Cleveland Restaurant Guide

“Once again we went. They are not good with people having mobility issues. It is difficult at best for some who relied on a walker to get into and out of a booth so guve them a table. Also. Do not roll your eyes when some tells you that. So, taking a chance, it was much better this time. The seating was immediate, and the server was relatively quick. Overall, it was much improved. BUT the buffett was sadly lacking. I have no idea why shredded cheddar is not a thing. Plus, there are no muffins and such. The biscuits were great last time. On the buffet, they were overcooked and dry. They are making strides but need to make quality important. It just kept getting worse. we waited 30 minutes to sit and many open tables more than 45 more until food. No one acknowledged us at the table for 15. Non servers would not even look at us. The food was just ok. One got french toast. I got kings breakfast, which is just chicken fried steak layered over hashbrowns and a biscuit. Our server was very friendly, but overall service was atrocious. I like the menu but am hesitant to come back because it was so awful. Top it off with no towels in the bathroom, which i told them, and they already knew. I just don't get it.”

“I will try this place again but unfortunately it did not leave a good first impression. My partner and I arrived shortly after our other two guests, who were already seated, and were completely ignored for about ten minutes. Our server came over and asked my in laws if they were ready to order despite not taking our drink orders, they told her no and she walked away without speaking to us. Another ten minutes pass and she came back and took our drink order, again more time passed before she dropped off our drinks and unfortunately forgot one of them. Another round of waiting before putting our food order in. Three of us ordered salads and were told soup came with them, wedding soup or chicken noodle. We ordered three chicken noodle. My mother in law ordered breakfast. It took about a half hour for our food to come out but it came out in parts. My mother in law's food was the first to arrive, a toasted bagel with eggs and fruit. Her bagel was ice cold. Several minutes pass and the first two salads come out, both missing the dressing and soup. Again, more minutes pass and the third salad comes out, still missing dressing and soup. I was also missing a side of loaded fries for a bit. The food was just okay, my husband enjoyed his salad dressing which you can tell is house made. We never received our soups and weren't told why. Once the food was all at the table, the server dropped off our check and let us know that we could pay at the host stand. A couple minutes later she came back and asked if we were ready because she was done for the day. The service was awful. I can be very understanding and patient if someone is busy handling a bunch of tables at once but she wasn't. From what I gathered, there were three of them on the floor and the other two appeared to be giving their tables a much better experience. The restaurant wasn't even that busy, maybe six tables or so, and they also had their breakfast buffet being served at this time. One thing that struck me as odd and out of place were two small children walking in and out of the kitchen; that doesn't feel safe in regards to the children's safety and food health. The manager came over some time after we cashed out and noticed we had stacked the entire table to be pre-bussed, she offered us a bag as she took our plates but that was all. I will try this place again at a much later time as they have good bones and the potential to be something great but there are a lot of things that need to be fixed and addressed before that.”

“First time we have gone and their food was delicious. Very kind waitress, Heather, as well as all who checked on us, explained the menu and even helped me decide on a dish. Everything on the menu was looking amazing. Beautiful atmosphere and great selection as well. A very friendly and lovely place to enjoy a get together and meal. Highly recommended.”
