This place is by far a top notch deli. Having been to this place numerous times for breakfast on my way to work, you CANNOT go wrong with the Breakfast Wrap. Bacon, has browns, egg, cheese and tomatoes. I get a side of hash browns as well. Super cheap. A staple in Cleveland found on the corner of 16th and St Clair Ave. I believe this is a nostalgic place that should be visited. Great old school photos of all the celebs and important people that have visited. Of course I will always visit again. read more

Found this place thru Yelp as we just finished our visit to the Rock and Roll museum-this is a little out of the way but just a little over 1/2 mile away. We were able to walk there in about 20 minutes. This is a hole in the wall Mom and Pop's place, street parking only. But everyone was so nice and friendly. Place is small but very clean. This is a classic small diner. Their corned beef is their specialty and it shows! Huge sandwich, comes with a generous pickle spear. So good! Their rye bread really compliments the corned beef- very tender and flavorful. My husband got the patty melt and he loved it. The location is in a semi industrial area, but is only a few blocks away from 9th street city center main drag. Glad we found this place-thanks Yelp community read more

if their corned beef was as nice as the service.I realize different strokes for different folks ,especially when it comes to a persons palate.I don't like lean corned beef.Period! but I don't like fatty corned beef where you have to risk choking on some fat as it goes down,.I want to see some marbling in the sandwich,Some slicers don't understand that part,so I purchased a lean and dry corned beef on Friday after being reassured by the slicer (owner) and his son or grandson? that the sandwich was just like I wanted it,Unfortunately not! When I called the restaurant after discovering the disappointing sandwich,son tells me a whole spiel about the history of corned beef.Really dude? He said "there was nothing wrong with it "I replied " u didn't buy it or eat it.He did say to bring it back,but I was not in close proximity of the restaurant at this point and it wouldn't had been economically beneficial with gas prices for a european car.I just want a good ole juicy corned beef.I gave a few stars because up until I talked to the son or grandson,the service was friendly enough,thus why I gave a few read more

Solid, old-school diner setting with piled-high sandwiches to match. Placed a to-go order recently, on my way home from an errand in the city. Staff is super-friendly and accommodating. They seemed to know everyone in the place, meaning there are lots of loyalists here (a good sign!). I ordered a standard corned beef Reuben with thousand island dressing, and it came with half a sour dill pickle on the side. When I got the sammie home and unpackaged it, it was a mile high! Corned beef was pretty lean and sliced very thin. The rye bread was buttered and grilled perfectly from their flattop and the Swiss cheese was melty and sour pairing nicely with the meat and dressing. Not my favorite Reuben in the city, but a solid contender with enough meat to make another sandwich (at a later time) if you don't want to tackle this entire beast in one sitting. Would definitely return! read more

In advance of St. Patrick's Day, my co-workers celebrated with some sandwiches from Danny's Deli. Looking back, celebrating in advance while the world was still 'normal' was a great idea. I ordered a traditional corned beef sandwich platter with an additional side of coleslaw. The platter included the sammich, french fries, and a dill pickle. The corned beef was juicy and very tasty - just perfect. The coleslaw and pickle were good, but the fries were cold, as expected, because our order was to go and we didn't eat until about 30 minutes after they were made. I'd definitely eat here again. In fact, we'll probably do this again next year, if there is a next year ;-P read more

We stopped here before going to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which is located just a few miles from the deli. The outside is very unassuming, to the point where we thought the place might be closed, which it thankfully was not. The staff was very friendly and, upon hearing that we were from out of town, offered us samples of both their renowned corned beef and chicken salad. Both sampledelicious; flavorful but not too salty, with a comforting homemade quality. We were very happy with all our meals, which were made to order in the open kitchen and served up quickly, despite the busy lunchtime rush. We would definitely eat here again! read more

WOW. Just Wow! After driving by this little joint the other day - I checked them out on Yelp. At the time - 11 reviews averaged out to 4.75 stars. That means I had better check this place out! First, I stopped by for breakfast. I was intrigued by the thought of their breakfast wrap (really a Burrito). It was advertised as bacon, eggs, home fries, cheese and tomato. I asked if I could have it where they substituted their corned beef hash for the bacon? They told me no problem! I got it to go - they made it fresh and hot to order! Man was that ever good! My only regret is that I wanted to add some black pepper and hot sauce to it - but it was still really damn good! Next up - we got their "Jaw Breaker" corned beef sandwiches at lunch time, served with mustard and swiss cheese. The thing was huge - loaded with more corned beef than I've ever seen in a sandwich!! (see attached pix). But even better, was that it so damn lean and tender! I could only eat half my Jaw Breaker this time around - but man was it good! I will be back to visit again - and eat it next time! read more

After looking over the menu, we were pleasantly surprised by the variety of both vegan and non-vegan options available. In fact, if you ask, they have a separate vegan menu with tons of choices, making it easy for everyone in our group to find something appealing. The atmosphere has that classic small-town neighborhood bar feel--casual, comfortable, and full of local charm. The service was friendly, attentive, and quick, which made the experience even better. We ordered the vegan pierogi dinner and the meatloaf dinner. The vegan cheese in the pierogies wasn't our favorite, but the dish was still very flavorful and enjoyable overall. The meatloaf dinner was a generous portion and absolutely excellent--comfort food done right. Between the welcoming atmosphere, diverse menu, and great service, The Rowley Inn was a delightful find. Whether you're visiting the Christmas Story House or just looking for a great local spot, it's definitely worth a stop. We'd happily visit again!

Across the street from the A Christmas Story House is the Rowley Inn. One thing we just had to…read moreexperience was great Polish food during our trip, so our friends chose this for us. They have a large menu of various pierogies and kielbasas, as well as traditional pub fare. They also have a great beer menu of the core basics and well as Cleveland/Ohio craft selections. The actual place feels like your inside an old house, with low ceilings and dim lighting. Our server was efficient and welcoming. They have a great bar area right inside the door too, and lean into their location with their own major award right inside. I ordered one of the veggie leaning pierogie dishes and loved how it was served with onions and sour cream. It was a delicious dish, which was much needed on an empty stomach. Prices are great.

The house-made guacamole was absolutely delicious and packed with fresh flavor. It was the perfect way to start our dining experience. The short rib French dip was outstanding. It was loaded with tender, flavorful meat, and the au jus was rich, savory, and as flavorful as they come. Every bite was incredible. The fish and chips were equally impressive. The fish was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly, with a light, crispy coating that complemented it beautifully. Overall, a fantastic meal with excellent service and food that exceeded expectations. We will definitely be back!

Avo Modern Mexican

I feel like Avo has the best ceviche in Cleveland! I'm Colombian & I know ceviche. The flavor is…read moreamazing and it's a good serving portion, 2-3 people can share. Their elote is pretty tasty too. I usually order the single tacos (birria, mahi mahi and lobster) my favorite! We sat at the bar this time and Brooke was great. Friendly, nice smile and patient!

I met a friend at Avo Modern Mexican in Ohio City for a girls' night dinner, and overall it was a…read moregood experience. I started with the Blackberry Hibiscus Margarita, which was light, refreshing, and a great way to kick off the evening. We shared the Avo Trio with guacamole, queso, and salsa. The salsa wasn't my favorite, but the guacamole was honestly some of the best I've ever had, and the queso was excellent. At $20, it felt a little pricey, but the portion was generous enough for sharing. For my entrée, I ordered the Pollo Ala Crema, thin slices of sautéed chicken breast with cream sauce, Spanish rice, grilled corn, Brussels sprouts, a crispy corn cake, aji verde, and crumbled bacon. It was a unique combination of flavors that worked really well together, and I enjoyed the dish overall. Parking is available on the street, or after 6 p.m. you can park in the lot adjacent to the restaurant and pay through the mobile app, which was convenient. Overall, I had a good meal and enjoyed the atmosphere. While everything was solid, I'm not sure I'd make a special trip back with so many great Mexican restaurants in the area that I still want to try.
