Gondolier

Well I have enjoyed eating at this place many times over the years, but tonight was a disappointment. My Greek salad was wonderful and the tzatziki sauce awesome! However it was the Gyro meat I had been drooling over for the last week knowing I was coming here that disappointed me. It was like it was the dry leftovers that had been reheated. I was looking forward to the juicy flavorful meat from previous visits. Maybe they were having an off night. I’ll try it again another time and if the gyro improves I’ll change my rating.

This is the most amazing restaurant! Their soup is fabulous! I would recommend this place to everyone. The owner and manager are great! The waiters and waitresses are good and know what they are doing. Except this time the waitress forgot to get us the pita bread with melted butter but it was ok cuz we had enough that we ordered anyways. But next time we won’t forget because we live the pitas with melted butter even if it’s unhealthy and we shouldn’t have it! LOL!
I had a bad experience at the Gondoliers in Ocoee and the manager at this Gondolier in Cleveland made that wrong more than right! I am not only satisfied but it was a pleasure to have our meal here in Cleveland, TN! I like this one better because the other one in Ocoee doesn’t have the fabulous homemade soup! But if the other one in Ocoee straitens up then we won’t mind dining there either. :) Thank you Gondoliers! Ahavah and Shalom!

Wanted to try this place as I had heard this was the original Gondolier that has since expanded and franchised out. I like history and have been to the first McDonalds and the first Bob’s Big Boy and the first Jack in the Box. So what the heck.
Had a nice dining experience here and will return.
They have a few items for a vegan or vegetarian to eat, but I noted the menu we were handed in the restaurant was missing at least one item that I saw on the online menu, the vegetarian hoagie.
We started with the dinner salads and they were as one would expect. Everything was fresh and the dressing was good. We ordered the fried mushrooms with the marinara dipping sauce and this was very good.
M-​I-​L ordered the Fetucini Alfredo and really liked it. We ordered a veggie pizza, hold the cheese.
The pizza was a thinner crust, dry on the bottom, more like a traditional New York pizza. Which I like. Not very greasy at all. The crust had a nice taste and the right amount of char on it. Toppings were fine and the sauce was tasty.
Extra star because the guy running the place is a Formula 1 fan. :)
Service was great. The long haired dude was cool. :) Prices were very cheap to me. 3 of us ate for under $ 30 and had leftovers. Can’t beat that.

Well. pretty basic… nothing special here… pie came our quick… nothing is unique about this pizza

The food is very good. We especially like the pizza. Our only complaint is they are very stingy with the toppings. We ask for extra of a topping, and have been charged for the extra, but we never get it. We point it out and they say «That is extra.» Very frustrating! So because of this flaw in the service I will rate them a 3.

I met my brother and sister in-​law here for lunch. Food was delicious and the lunch specials were great. The only thing that made this experience any better was the service from the friendly and attentive servers and staff. it is a great staple of Cleveland, TN.

Another Cleveland Classic. Great pizza and cheese sticks. The décor is the only thing that lacks here now. Just update that or even build a stand alone building and I’d easily rate it 5.

Just passing through town and decided I wanted some pizza but didn’t want the usual franchise garbage you can get anywhere. I’m glad I stopped here. This is some of the best pizza I have ever had. What really makes it good is the crust. If you’re in the area I would highly recommend it. The only complaint I have is the owner didn’t seem like the the most friendly guy I’ve ever met.

Horrible. Horrible. If you’ve eaten at other Gondolier restaurants, don’t go here. Menu isn’t even the same. Gyro salad had nasty fake sausage on it for meat and a dump of mashed potatoes in it, plus large order was actually SMALL compared to other restaurants.

Nice change of pace for «non-​chain» pizza. I appreciate their use of good cheese, and fresh ingredients. My husband works near this restaurant, occasionally I make a request for Gondolier Pizza as oppose to the local chains.

A nice local place to grab a bite. Their food is relatively inexpensive, but all tastes about the same. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I’d recommend their pasta over their pizza.

Was in town looking for good pizza. I was told about Gondoliers.
The staff was pleasant. The table was comfortable.
I got a small pizza with pepperoni and bacon. It was done just right. Chewy crust, tasty cheese and a tangy sauce. Not sure what type of oven they use, but I think there was a smoky flavor to the crust.
I will be back. I’m going to try the chicken parmasen next time!

Great service, good food. Nothing fancy here or over the top. Casual place, but great for family and kids. At the main parking area for the Cleveland greenway, so you can walk off your dinner after stuffing yourself.

Very middle of the road pizza place. On the plus side, VERY friendly service — I really felt like I was welcome there. Décor/​atmosphere is pretty generic family-​friendly restaurant — plastic-​y booths and chairs, tacky neon along the walls, etc. Pizza was fine — sauce was very good, toppings were of average portions but seemed quality enough, though the crust wound up being chewier than I generally like. Probably a fine place to bring the kids, but the pizza was no better than any of the big chains.
