    ows a hand holding a piece of fried food
    Ajasha L.

    Chicken looked as if it had been fried using fish batter. Could not get anyone on the phone to resolve the issues. Will not be patronizing this business again.

    Rib tips combo w mac n cheese and yams
    Amy J.

    Long line at 830pm that moved rapidly. One in and one out to keep some semblance of social distancing. No phone orders- one must walk in to order and then wait for them to call your phone. You must show ID if paying with card. They were out of every single dessert when I went along with oxtail. They wrapped up my rib tips combo very expertly today keep the sides separate and the corn bread on top dry. The corn bread was not sweet even at all but wasn't dry even though it was pretty crumbly. The rib tips cake absolutely bathing in an incredibly delicious medium viscosity sweet not spicy barbecue sauce that I am certain has cherry in it. It wasn't cloyingly sweet though! The mac n cheese side was totally great with thick real creamy cheese. The yams were great and unique with hints of orange spice flavor. Overall great Cleveland barbecue with some unique aspects and great efficient service without too much cost.

    Being that I'm from Buffalo I found the ribs to be quite tasty , and my 2 sides along with the corn muffin was all on point! There was a lil bit of a wait , but they let you know from the jump when ur ex's pecking good food there's gonna be a wait . Must try neighborhood staple I will be back

    OMG, some of the best wings I've ever had!
    Sticky L.

    While visiting Cleveland, I was taken to this place for some fried chicken wings! Can I just say these were the best dayum chicken wings I've ever had! They were fried to perfection! Not to greasy or heavy breading that tends to hinds the chicken! They had a nice crispy crunch just the way I like them! We went back again before I left to get another order and this time we got the black eyed peas with okra, sweet potatoes and a cornbread muffin! OMG, the sweet potato were just like my moms use to make! With lost of flavor and spices! The black eyed peas tasted fresh and very well seasoned, even the fries that came with the chicken wings were the Bomb! The staff was super friendly! Next time I'm in Cleveland I'm making a bee line to this place! It's the next best thang to home cooking! Just be prepared for the wait!

    10 piece with sauce

    Baaybee I'm telling you these wings are on point. It's the crunchy batter that really sets them apart from CLE faves like Hot Sauce Williams who have good sauce but-saugy batter. Open pit has a tangy but sweet sauce that's supper addictive. Now as for the service... baebee you better be prepared to see some hood sh*t and be on some hood sh*t... they rude as hell, they don't take call ahead orders, matter of fact I'm still tryna understand why they even have a business phone. They have signs all over telling you you're about to wait about 35 minutes for 10 wings. That don't open until like 6pm...And people freaking wait and deal with the BS... you know why? cause the food is fire.

    Large rib tips were banging again!
    Shawn T.

    Staff is nice. Food hot. Call in your order so you don't have to wait. I drive 30 miles for my food, it's worth it.

    I discovered Zanzibar Soul Fusion via Google Maps after searching "Southern food Cleveland" for…read moreSouthern food restaurants with vegetarian options. I was pleased to find that it was listed on Uber Eats, which is my preferred ordering platform. Its 4.1-star rating (out of 2,000+ reviews) gave me the assurance I needed that I would have a quality experience, along with an endorsement from Mallory S., a Cleveland Yelper I follow. There was another Zanzibar closer to me--which was the one I originally found--but this location was the only one accepting orders at the time and it had a higher rating. Looking through the menu at Zanzibar, I just could not order from this restaurant without getting the soul rolls. After a thorough search of the menu, I discovered that the standard soul rolls contained chicken, which led me to choose the veggie option--only to find out they were unavailable. Something I could not take my eyes off of was the walleye cakes entrée. It is served with a side of house cajun corn plus a choice of an additional side. The thought of ordering baked macaroni & cheese put a smirk on my face, so I swapped out the cajun corn for it, and then chose collard greens as my additional side. I ordered all of that along with a cornbread muffin! Hey now, I cannot order from a Southern food restaurant and not get cornbread! Whether using Grubhub or, in this case, Uber Eats, I love ordering online because it is so convenient. Much praise to my Uber Eats delivery driver, Julian, for arriving at a reasonable time and meeting me in front of the hotel. Julian also made sure to confirm my identity before handing over the food, which I cannot thank him enough for. Oh, the wonderful smell of Southern food! I could not help but smell my order while riding the elevator up to my hotel room. I was very satisfied with the presentation of it, which had generous portions for the price I paid. The walleye cakes had a flavor my taste buds absolutely loved; they had a slight kick, but nothing unbearable. The addition of red bell pepper and green herbs complemented the dish perfectly. I would definitely order it again if I saw it on a restaurant menu. It honestly had me dancing in between bites! The macaroni and cheese had my mouth watering for more. It was a perfect blend of cheesy, buttery goodness, and it was clearly baked! My mouth watered at the first bite of the collard greens, which thankfully did not have chunks of meat inside. That was something I worried about prior to ordering, based on a past experience at another Southern food restaurant. They were so good--perfectly smoky, savory, and a little bit tangy. Mmm...Need I say anything about the cornbread muffins? They were the icing on the cake to top off this satisfying meal and the last thing I ate. It was the best cornbread muffin I have had in a while, and that is no exaggeration. If you are undecided on what to order at Zanzibar, I highly recommend this meal because it will surely leave you satisfied and possibly dancing. Alright now, Zanzibar! You have won over this Midwest traveler from Chicago. Because I had a great ordering experience, I would surely order from Zanzibar Soul Fusion again--whether via Uber Eats delivery or takeout--whenever I visit Cleveland.

    I suppose that if you're interested in the image of your food, As Ashley said in her review, that…read morethis place would be quite bad. It's not in a hip part of town. I don't think there's table service. The decor does not have artsy metals and hand blown glass accents. By the same way of thinking, every food truck and street food joint would be bad. Big Al's in Larchmere would be avoided and the Sokolowskis would have been closed decades ago. "Ashley" said nothing about the food, man! She had problems with containers and condiments! Restaurants are about the food! My experience with this place starts at work: a coworker was eating a mammoth sized portion of fettuccine Alfredo-looking stuff and I asked her where she got it. She said "Greedys" and pointed in the direction of the place. "I call ahead like 15 minutes and walk over to get it. This is like $10 and I can eat it for dinner too, there's so much You should try it. I go there twice a week, at least." Being a vegan on the east side is rough, and I'm the worst vegan ever, so when I cheat, I don't hold back. The next day I was craving chicken like crazy, and I gave Greedy's a shot: Holy $#*¥! Greedys chicken was DOPE. Haha. Honest to god, it's the best chicken I've ever eaten. It's got something in the breading that puts it over the top. Some voodoo salty spicy goodness that makes me never want to stop eating it. I took an order of chicken strips back to work and shared with a few coworkers - the general consensus was that, indeed, that was the best chicken strips they had ever had. I probably made a lot of customers for Greedys that day. We all commented on the special magic coating...it is something special. And now I'm out a few days, and keep thinking about that chicken...those hand-cut fries....just wow. And the order of 5 strips was a laughable $6. It was more food than anyone but a glutton vegan on a protein bender could eat. So now every day I'm faced with the decision of my bland vegetables from home for lunch, or walking those few steps to Greedys. It's right next door to a church- and the chicken is like a religious experience.

    Food was just okay I went to the restaurant February 2020 precovid. The restaurant was very dirty,…read moreno hand washing and food tasted so so. I went because I saw on Google the Restaurant got good reviews however was very disappointed actually end up getting a stomachache. I'm just doing my review but as you can see five months later I still have not gone back and don't plan on it.
