    A friend was visiting from out of town and this was one of the places I thought would be unique for…read moreher to visit. We shared the loco moski, paprikash sandwich, and a side of bacon wrapped tots (good option if you just want 2 and not the full appetizer). While the bacon wrapped tots are famous from Food Network's Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives, I actually liked the loco moski and paprikash sandwich more. The loco moski is a fun combination between a loco moco but with pierogi, and I like that the peppered gravy wasn't too rich. The paprikash sandwich was also a great combo of chicken, sausage, peppers, cheese, paprikash, on lightly crispy bread. Parking available as free street parking--though you may have to circle to find parking since it's near the Christmas House. Staff were nice and efficient. The place does feel a little tight in terms of space with less lighting, but there's still plenty of seating and what matters to me more is good food. Overall, great place to try local food. Would get the loco moski and paprikash sandwich again.

    This place is a one stop shop for many Cleveland classics both original and vegan versions…read more My pre-trip research brought this place to my attention. I wanted to try the pierogi and the Polish boy and the KRAUT and having an extensive beer menu doesn't hurt either. Friendly neighborhood watering hole literally on the corner and basically across the street from the a Christmas story house allowing you to eat within eye sight of the leg lamp. I wanted basically everything from the menu that came vegan (spoiler alert there are tons and tons of things) but gastric space comes at a premium on vacation so we settled on the fried cheese. I was very excited to see the Polish boy (and vegan option no less) I didn't have much of a choice. GF ordered the vegan pierogi platter with vegan kielbasa on a bed of kraut. Firstly the fried cheese was head and shoulders above any mozz sticks or anything of the sort that I have had in memory. The breading is seasoned and crispy and heaven on earth. The cheese is PIPING. Like you will burn yourself if you, like me, have no patience. The accompanying tomato sauce is also steaming. So good. The Polish boy was also in a league of its own. Love that they have a vegan version. What a combo. Probably one of Cleveland's most important community contributions. We ordered the latkes to go and they were orgasmic. What a special place.

    Oh my gosh! Who-da-thunk it in Old Brooklyn? Knew nothing of this place until recently. Had a…read moreburger. Awesome. One of the best around. Great char flavor with great pickles. As a sour dill pickle lover, I really loved the cucumber-flavor pickles. They are great for the burger -- adds even more flavor without overwhelming like some pickles can. The pickles taste how I imagine they would when only half through pickling process -- a combo of discernible cucumber with a mild dill flavor. Very nice. I was disappointed with the octopus. It was delicious and uber tender, but only one small tentacle -- not enough to share with anyone. My husband and I can share a meatball at most places but this tentacle was too small. The gnocchi that accompanied it could be a dish all its own. The gnocchi with the potato alone would make a great app. or entree. We were really impressed with the food and are looking forward to round 2.

    Heard about this place and we were going to be in the neighborhood so we decided to try…read more First off parking is wherever. We parked on a side street and walked. Sat at the bar. There are tables but we opted for the bar seats. Cute place. Good decor. Lights and pictures and posters and Knick knacks around. Bartender was nice. As usual we asked a handful of questions since it's our first time here. It's is a Thursday so wing night. I got 7 wings for $13 (I think) got buffalo. They don't have a ton of sauces to choose from. I also got the waffles fries. They are homemade so that's sounds good. Fries came first. And as usual I got all the small end of the bag left overs. Not the big waffle fries. I am not sure why this always happens to me but it does. Fries are seasoned with something not sure what. They kinda got a kick. It's not bad. Just know. The wings came. The drums are huge. Flats smaller. They are decent. Not the best. Could have been crispier. Could have been saucier too. I do have to say the homemade blue cheese is really good! Kathy got the burger. She said it was good. She enjoyed it. Bun was soft, veggies good and burger well seasoned. They had a blackberry cider that Kathy got. And I got the strawberry seltzer. The seltzer was just OK. Not as much of a fan as I thought I'd be. Not enough strawberry. Too much seltzer. Overall OK experience. Prices kinda average. Happy hour is long and decent. Specials are good. I'd go back.
