I wouldn't suggest deviating this far from Cleveland just to eat here. That being said, I don't…read moreregret making the trip one bit. I came to Cleveland for pierogies, and gosh darn it, I was going to eat as many as I could. These were the best pierogies I had on my trip, although I ultimately regretted my decision to order them fried. I prefer them boiled and have a feeling I would have enjoyed them even more that way. I wish I had rented an Airbnb instead of staying in a hotel so I could have taken some of the uncooked pierogies home with me. Service was fast and friendly. This is much more of a carryout spot than a sit-down restaurant, but I grabbed one of the few tables. No drinks of any kind. Had I done a little research, I would have known that beforehand. Maybe I was a little too impulsive on this one. And for an unexpected dose of nostalgia, they were using the exact same plates my parents had when I was a kid. I never expected a plate to trigger childhood memories, but there they were.

I experienced (as to go order) the new Eastern European innovation - Pierogi Bucket! The bucket…read morecontains 30 pierogis for the price of $20. Great deal! The pierogis are golden to perfection. You have an option of adding onions or skipping them. I chose to skip the onions. The pierogis came with a generous amount of sour cream - 3 sides! I was very happy with the presentation. Who can say no to pierogi bucket?! In terms of the taste, I wasn't fully satisfied. Perhaps it's because I'm rating this as someone Eastern European with certain pierogi expectations. To me the dough was very well cooked. The inside (potato) tasted like it came out of a package as dry potato, which was disappointing. Pierogis tasted too bland, not enough salt or flavor. I would be much happier if they contain real potato and would be more flavorful. Still, I hope to stop by at Perla and order more to go orders. I'm especially interested in trying other options. They have Dubai pierogi which seems like such a tasty and viral idea!

So i went in sat at the bar and asked the bartender what the best thing to eat was. She said the burgers. So then i asked if they were made fresh or frozen. She said fresh. So i ordered a burger. The burger was just ok. Didn't seem like a fresh made burger. So i had the burger and 1 beer. And asked for the bill. When it came it was $26.00 for a beer and a burger. Way way overpriced for what it was.

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.

I love a good dive bar, however Never Say Dive is a bit more elevated when it comes to the food choices. I really wanted to try the deviled eggs, but they were out. There definitely some other things that caught my eye, but decided on just the wings. It was later in the evening. I believe the server said they were gochujang, though the flavor was a bit different than the gochujang I'm used to. They definitely packed a kick of heat. Overall I enjoyed them. The margarita was just ok. Long story short, I would try it out again

When we were seated, our waitress brought us some cold water in glasses and gave us menus. I felt like trying some bourbon, so I requested Larceny. There were a lot of tasty looking options on the menu, but I ultimately settled on salmon. My wife requested cod, and my son requested the rib dinner. The ambience of the place was nice. The waitress was friendly and there was a car show outside, which was cool. It didn't take long for our food to be cooked. My fish was hot off the grill, had a wonderful crispy finish, and was cooked to my specification. The salmon was delicious, as were the mashed potatoes it was served on. The asparagus was perfectly cooked and delicious as well. I was craving more. Everyone enjoyed their meals and with great service, we agreed that this could be a place we visit when we're in the area. Great stuff!

My sandwich was Giant, perfectly crafted , fresh and ready in the appropriate amount of time. I was so happy to enjoy my lunch there and see it was still bustling with patrons.

The menu has some standout breakfast options you don't see often around here, like loaded grits (a rare Southern find in this area). The grits were absolutely amazing--definitely my new go-to breakfast craving. The blueberry cream cheese muffin totally lived up to the hype too: moist, sweet, and perfectly balanced. We also tried the seasonal strawberry mocha. The coffee itself was smooth and well-made, though the strawberry flavor was a bit subtle. The vibe is one of the best parts--lots of seating, a mix of people working and chatting, and the kind of cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. They also host yoga twice a week (Thursdays and Sundays) and fun events like game nights, which adds to the community feel. Definitely a spot worth lingering in.

That's a great perk for those who would rather support a local coffee shop rather than a chain but prefer not to get out of the car. I decided to go inside to grab breakfast and some coffee. The interior is cozy with lots of tables for a full days work or a quick coffee meeting. There's a small food menu with some hot options and pastries, as well as a few panini's and a salad for lunch. I got the biscuits and gravy. The gravy was absolutely delicious and hot. It had lots of flavor. Although the biscuit was tasty and fresh, it was served cold and the hot gravy couldn't completely take off the chill. This was an above average gravy though and I would def return for it. They serve Rising Star coffee and I got a lumberjack breve. My drink came out piping hot, which I appreciated and the flavor was on point. I believe the lumberjack was a combination of brown sugar, cinnamon, and maple. It was perfect for a cold winter day. I couldn't resist getting a little sweet treat, so I grabbed a brown butter chocolate chunk cookie at the suggestion of a barista. Another delicious choice. Honestly everything was great here. I would definitely frequent this place if I lived closer. The service was friendly and they worked pretty quickly, which I appreciated. My only minor pit was the box that my biscuits and gravy came in. Not really suitable for a hot soupy item.
