    32. Steak Dirty Fries & 31. Chicken Dirty Fries
    Melissa M.

    My friend and I DoorDash'd for lunch and she failed to mention one order could feed 4 people I had the chicken dirty fries and it had all the adult junk food elements: hot fries, grilled (seasoned) chicken, ranch, cheese and some peppers, onions and mushrooms that weren't mushy. I really enjoyed trying to make a dent in mine. My friends steak was a bit too well done and chewy so took a star for that. Otherwise, great for a hangover, cheat day (like, the whole day) or a breakup

    1/2 of the Dale sandwich

    After driving by this place for as long as I can remember, I finally decided to give it a try. Their corned beef is constantly advertised in front of the building, so I thought I'd get the Dale sandwich. The sandwich was very good. The corned beef was shaved and crumbly, but still had some moisture to it. The mustard and Swiss cheese complimented it well. It came with a pickle and a hefty portion of French fries. The fries had a nice Cajun seasoning on them, but were a bit on the soggy side. Overall it was a good meal, and I would consider going there again, but I'm not sure when. If you're in the mood for a quick sandwich, I think Papa Joe's is a far better option. If you're in the mood for a good corned beef sandwich, Muldoon's is leaps and bounds better. At $10.25 for the sandwich plus $0.60 for the cheese plus $1.25 for the fries, there are cheaper options out there. But they do deliver, so it's nice to have available if you want delivery and don't want pizza or Chinese.

    Hard chicken and food was cold. Never  order from them again.

    Restauranti ordered two orders of wings dinner and cheese burger was hard and black. the driver was late with the food. The food was cold too. I wish I can take a picture of this food. When you don't change your Grease it's makes the chicken looks black. And the Restaurant used flour. That's not flour dales on put on chicken. just a waste of money. My mom standing in the heat Waiting on the blacken chicken. I will not order from them again. Am about Tired of eating out. With Bad cooking skills.

    Thought i would randomly start trying some of the local businesses I pass everyday and Dales Deli caught my eye with the help of Yelp. Instantly after looking at the menu I fell in the trap of wanting to order a bit of everything. Pictured below are a chicken Philly and chicken dirty fries. Both were more than satisfactory, service was really quick and personal which is always a plus for me. So much that I've been back twice since this post! If you're looking to try out a place with reasonable prices and solid portions, definitely stop by

    So let's start with the 4 inches of meat packed in this sandwich! I've been here twice now and have had the corned beef and the Reuben. I hold every city with good food to Chicago standards but these two versions far exceed anything I've had in Chicago thus far. You can tell this is a city that specializes in these sandwiches. Dales is a hole in the wall that I hear doubles as a "alleged" underground gambling op. Not sure about the validity to this claim but even if it was true they seem to give lots of attention to the crafting of the sandwiches. They have tables out front and no room to sit inside. Pick up only. Food is made to order and comes out quick. Staff is nice and the sandwiches....O-M-G! My wife's cousins says there a bigger better corned beef here in town. I guess I'm going to have to see for myself!

    The best burger in Cleveland like... hands down. This is a dive bar but man is the food there…read moreamazing. When you pull up it looks like a dive from the 1960's or a small Soviet bloc, not many windows and just a square little building, but you come inside and the people are inviting and friendly and the food is out of this world. I got the smash burger onion rings and some loaded tots and it was delicious. Their toilet has an awesome Andrew Warhol version of Misney there which is just a chefs kiss added touch to this place. 5 stars hands down

    We were in the mood for a good burger and we saw that this place had been voted "Best Burger in…read moreCleveland!" So we figured we'd try it out! If we were not looking for this place specifically, I know we would've driven right past it! It's a standalone little building and the only markings I saw outside was a little sign that said BAR. But it was 2 o'clock on a Saturday afternoon and there were several cars in the parking lot, which is a good sign. The inside is really tiny. There's a large U-shaped bar and about six tables. We looked in the menu and opted for their famous Smashburger. It is $14 and comes with fries. It is a double patty cheeseburger. I did not want a burger that big so I opted for just one Patty. They said that was no problem, but the price was still the same. I also got onion rings, which were $3 more. The food came out really fast and you could tell it came right out of the fryer because the french fries were super hot! This place is called a dive bar, and I guess it is - but on a Saturday afternoon, the place was filled with all kinds of people. On one side of us was a family with little kids. On the other side of us was a couple in their 20s. And then the rest of the place was filled with people from every age group. I have to say that the music they play there is fabulous! But back to the food. The burger was seasoned really well! It is a smash burger, but they're still able to make it crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Our server was really good. She did not hover, but she was around to see if you need anything. Depending on the vibe that you're looking for, if you want more of a bar vibe, you should go in the evening, but we were happy to just be in a relaxed little joint with good food. They opened up another Crowley's in Painesville so we will probably have to try that one too.

    I heard about this place a long time ago, and then I forgot about it. Recently, I went looking for…read morea new burger to try, saw the name Doinks, and said, "OH, YEAHHHHH!" Off we went. When we opened the door, I immediately knew I'd love the fries. You could smell the delicious fry smell right away, and I wasn't wrong. Some of the best french fries I've ever had. The burger was great too! My wife got onion rings as a side, and I was like, "Are you nuts?! These fries are going to be so good!" The rings were fantastic though. Solid snap on the onion, which didn't slide out of the breading when I bit down. The service was friendly and quick, and the restaurant itself was clean as a whistle in the very cool Waterloo Arts District, just down the street from Beachland Ballroom. While walking to the car, we agreed that Doinks needed to be a regular date night stop. Killer burger spot.

The burger was a single smashed patty that tasted fresh and was not greasy at all. The fries paired really well with the burger. They were topped with cheese, bacon, sour cream, and green onions. Soooo good! We also tried the side of spicy pickles which were a great side dish. They tasted very fresh and were not too strong with vinegar or sweetness, if that's your preference. The margarita was simple but refreshing. Shout out to the bartender for his craft! My only critique was on the ube cheesecake. The flavor was delicious! Had a subtle vanilla flavor and the texture was great. It just tasted like it had been sitting uncovered in the fridge maybe? Other than that we had a great time and loved the atmosphere. The neighborhood is so nice and it's great to see local spots like this adding some charm. I'll be back!
