1833

Headed here and enjoyed my meal. The bread basket is delicious. The chicken blt sandwich was delicious. The pea salad was not my thing. Not enough flavor in my opinion.Salads were good, but nothing crazy.Ranch for dipping was homemade and heavenly.Brownie for dessert was tasty.

Had an excellent meal at 1833 while visiting my mom and sister in Oberlin. The Chicken Parmigiana was outstanding, far exceeding my expectations. Deviled egg appetizer was tasty and my mom and sister loved their vegetarian options, sweet potato soup and gnocchi.

Absolutely fabulous meal and service, and a super cool atmosphere, even on a Sunday evening! Beautiful restaurant inside the Hotel at Oberlin. Offers vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. Full bar with many unique cocktails and a hearty wine list. I'm dining solo tonight, but this would be a great date night place. Love the vibe!

The food is pretty tasty (and not cheap), the atmosphere is open and echoey, but very light and airy. I have only eaten here for weekend brunch. It is an available option if Feve is too busy. The menu for brunch is pretty small, but the Benedict is good and there is nowhere else in town you can get it. Coffee is not very warm and the servers are bad about refilling it, to be honest. Side salads that you get with brunch are very nice, with cherry tomatoes and finishing flake salt. I need to come for something other than brunch to give a full review. But I have come a half-dozen times, for brunch.

HEALTHY/SEASONAL MENU/CREATIVE CUISINEAlum driving cross-country stopped in Oberlin to eat here again. I tried 1833 in 2018 and enjoyed two great meals while staying at The Hotel. So came this time with expectations and IT WAS GREAT! I started with SQUASH BISQUE with pepitas, crema and Aleppo chili flakes. Warm rich (GF, V) and spicy! Then had a hearty but healthy CHICKEN PARMESAN SANDWICH with mozzarella, pesto on a artisan Kaiser roll. I was hungry but could only manage to eat half. It made a great lunch the next day. The CHILLED PEA SALAD with aged cheddar, bacon, red onion with creamy peppercorn dressing was cold but picante and crispy. The wine list is short but well chosen. I tried a NZ SAUVIGNON BLANC with the Bisque and MALBEC for the Chicken Parmesan. Both wines good examples of their provenance and varietal. The wines, like the food, represented good value for money $8 and $6 respectively. All the food artfully presented and service attentive, informed and pleasant. IF YOU ARE IN THE AREA DO NOT MISS THIS RESTAURANT. INSPIRED AND DELECTABLE!

We are trying to complete the Lorain County Ice Cream Trail and this restaurant is one of the participants. Why they are on the ice cream trail is beyond me. First, you have to be seated in the restaurant for them to wait on you. Second, when we said we were there for the ice cream, we were told they have chocolate, vanilla and praline. WHAT?????? And to boot, a teeny scoop, served in a bowl was $4.00 and that was after they took off the discount because of the voucher. This restaurant should never have participated, because that's not what it's about. I can't comment on the menu, as we didn't eat anything. Service was fine and the restaurant is cute, except that the metal chairs are uncomfortable.

Atmosphere - modern. Set just off the main lobby of the hotel, the restaurant is fairly small with floor to ceiling glass on one side. We arrived around 8 pm and there were only two tables with patrons. The chairs were less than comfortable and the place had an upscale cafe feel to it.Service - average, at best. Despite the fact that the restaurant was extremely slow, it took some time before we were approached by a server. To be honest, I have a feeling that our server was fairly new to the restaurant and to the profession. She was tentative and was not very personable. Food - good. Here, I need to qualify my review by stating that I only ordered ice cream. The restaurant is on a Lorain County promotional event involving ice cream. I am puzzled as to why this restaurant was included. Virtually every other participating business was an ice cream store. In the end, the restaurant had only 3 flavors of ice cream! I had chocolate, which was pretty good but nothing special. It was served in a very small parfait glass for $4!Value - Poor. I probably don't need to elaborate.

The food was quick and was absolutely amazing. So well-done- the break bread was amazing, as were the deviled eggs. The main courses themselves were spectacular. Very much recommended.I see some people have had very different experiences with the food and staff, but my experience was wonderful and the man working at the bar was incredibly nice. Great food.

Nice ambience, the people that took care of us were lovely. That said this was our second encounter with horrible food and a terrible strange odor coming from the dishes and glasses... Most likely a faulty dishwasher. I would say don't go.

This is somewhat of a foo-foo place. Minimalistic setting.With voices echoing throughout the place. The outside structure, outlandish, does not fit in with the town's Mainstreet image. We saw a sign onthe main street that said something about it being historically a mainstreet USA.About the food - almost all of our party ordered the hamburger with fries.They were excellent, being charbroiled. I'd say they were the best!!The fries were not too salty and had a slight herb taste to them - notoverwhelming.The service was very good. Attentive and not overshadowing.I only gave it 4 stars because the menu was limited to mostly sandwiches.They should be better than a sandwich place. For being foo-foo they should come up with delicious entrees. Not impressed with the food choices.Serving french fries is easy. And who orders Pumpkin soup?!1833 is trying to be upscale so they can charge upscale prices.
