Atmosphere atmosphere atmosphere! The surroundings, the people, everything was great. Everybody seemed like they were having a good time from the servers to the bartenders.To all of the patrons, this was just a fun place to be. It’s been around forever, and the food certainly lived up any reputation you’ve heard it was great. The place was completely packed at dinner time and it should be because it deserves to be. A wonderful spot I’ll be back for sure for another one of those amazing burgers. Ohh the same Patrick’s day clock, not actually reflecting St. Patrick’s Day, was actually a great conversation starter.

A nice old building, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing! Sausage, biscuits, and gravy for an appetizer was unique and delicious. The Cajun blue burger and the smash burger bacon melt was delicious!

We had a great time. They had music bingo starting after we arrived. We played while waiting for our food and after. We even won a round! The food was great and the service was great. We enjoyed the entertainment while we were there.Edit. We went a second time during our visit and tried burgers. I added a pic of those.

This is one of my favorites. Especially for their burgers. It has a great old-school vibe and their food is outstanding. I’ve never had a bad meal or bad service here.

Our first stop on our trip to Cleveland and Gunselman’s did not disappoint! There is seating outside and inside. Outside seating is under umbrellas at each table. Inside has some pretty cool decor.
The waitress was very nice and explained to us the menu. We ordered the poutine fries with shredded steak for an appetizer, the California burger and a pierogi burger for our meals.
The poutines fries were absolutely delicious! The gravy was thick and flavorful. My husband enjoyed his California burger. The avocado on top was cut perfect as it was not too thick or too thin. His side was the Brussels sprouts and they had robust flavor and were cooked to perfection!
The pierogi burger was extremely unique in kind but sooo tasty! The pierogis were giant as they were the “bun” and they were stuffed with potato and cheese goodness!
Needless to say, everything here was outstanding! All the food that we ordered was prepared fresh and the service was top notch!

According to local lore, Gunselman’s is a Cleveland westside staple so I had to try it.
The atmosphere is great, it’s an old school neighborhood bar on the corner. The staff and clientele are all warm and welcoming. There’s a bar side and restaurant side. Expect a wait if you stop by a peak hours.
If you love some good ol bar food and beer this is the place for you.

Gunselman’s is a great cozy neighborhood restaurant. I went here on a Sunday not knowing that the full menu was not available. That was not a problem. This restaurant serves a wide variety of breakfast/brunch options. They do have an extensive dinner menu from burgers, fish, ethnic cuisine and daily specials. I went with the egg pierogi and sausage breakfast. What an amazing dish this was, and the portions were huge. For me the pierogi’s were done to perfection, and to my surprise there were three sausage patties. I will definitely have to come back here for dinner. The beer selection is okay.

My fiancée brought me home a double cheeseburger that was supposed to have extra bacon which she paid for and a side of mac and cheese that was literally 5 bites. Both her burger and mine were dry and overcooked. So much for medium. Last time for me.

Fiancé got the beast burger, which he loved, and I got the mushrooms burger. I figured there would be a little more emphasis on burgers with the award winning burgers being advertised so much here and was surprised to see there weren’t too many. It was nice to see the prices weren’t crazy. It is a bar, but during the time we were there, it wasn’t too loud or crazy, though there were sports on the TV, including the Kentucky Derby.
Although the burger I had was good, I was not overly impressed with it and would not find myself going back to this establishment specifically for their food.
