TURN Bar + Kitchen at The Ritz-Carlton, Cleveland — Menu Guide

TURN Bar + Kitchen is the all-day restaurant inside The Ritz-Carlton, Cleveland at 1515 West Third Street — a nod, in name and design, to the city's steel-working industry. The menu is modern American built on local ingredients, but the signature move is the bar: smoked cocktails that arrive wreathed in a wisp of theater. It's the hotel's everyday dining room — breakfast through dinner daily — with a smart-casual dress code. Below is our independent walkthrough of the menu, reported prices, and what we'd order. Everything is written in our own words; prices are reported figures, not a copy of the restaurant's menu.

Breakfast, lunch & brunch

TURN runs a full day: breakfast daily 7am–11am, lunch Monday–Friday 11am–2pm, brunch Saturday–Sunday 11am–3pm, and dinner daily 5pm–10pm (the bar stays open 11am–midnight). As the hotel's only all-day restaurant, it's built to handle everything from a working breakfast to a weekend brunch crowd.

Dinner & the signature dishes

Dinner is modern American comfort with a Cleveland accent. Published coverage has flagged dishes including a "Not So Much Polish Boy" (reported $15) — the kitchen's playful take on the Cleveland classic — peppercorn ahi tuna (reported $32), Cattleman's Goulash, and a hangar steak. Reviewers also single out a white chocolate cold soup as an offbeat favorite, and a Northeast Ohio cassata cake (reported $9) for dessert.

Our take: order the Polish Boy for the story and the tuna for the execution — together they cover the menu's range from playful to polished.

The bar: smoked cocktails

The "smoked cocktail" program is TURN's calling card — drinks finished with aromatic smoke that ties back to the steel-town theme. The bar also hosts a daily 6pm "steam whistle" moment marking the end of the workday, a nice ritual worth timing a drink around. For the more adventurous, the hotel also houses Sushi by Bou, an intimate omakase counter open Tuesday–Saturday evenings.

What we'd order

If we had one meal here, this is how we'd play it:

  • At the bar first: a smoked cocktail — it's the signature experience of the room.
  • To eat: the peppercorn ahi tuna as the refined pick, or the Not So Much Polish Boy for the Cleveland wink.
  • To finish: the Northeast Ohio cassata cake — a local nod in dessert form.

Planning your visit

  • It's the easy reservation — as an all-day hotel restaurant, it absorbs walk-ins better than Cleveland's destination dining rooms.
  • Smart casual holds. You'll see everything from convention attire to date-night looks; dress one notch above your day.
  • Budget: $31–$50 per person puts dinner for two comfortably in the mid-hundreds with drinks — Ritz-Carlton service without the tasting-menu price.
