    Bratwurst with sauerkraut, ketchup, and mustard
    Rodney W.

    On a recent Sunday bike ride near the West Side Market, we stopped in to see what's cookin'. Not much was cookin', but there were a lot of meal ingredients for sale. One of the few places serving food was Frank's Bratwurst. I asked my son if he wanted a hot dog and I bought him a bratwurst. The brat was really tasty. It would've been nice to have a wider selection of toppings, but it was of good quality and taste nonetheless.

    So simple but so good. Perfectly cooked, juicy, and flavorful brat on a great simple roll with brown mustard, and for only $4, you can't beat it. Love the west side market and all their stands and this place is one of the best, they are very nice and super quick to make your food, and it's great how you can walk right outside and sit on a bench to eat. You can get a hard or soft roll with mustard, ketchup, or sauerkraut. Love how they perfected one simple food to sell, and they perfected it, definitely will be back!

    If I make a bad joke about this picture I know you will glare at me so I wont.

    There's a song about these incredible brats inside the West Side Market (not to be confused with the Bratz inside any given shopping mall). It's called "Relax", and it's by "Frankie Goes To Cleveland." Relax! Get Bratwurst! When you want eat sausage! Relax! Don't share it! You'll be left with none! Relax! Don't drop it! Then you're left with none! But please save me some! What to get: A Brat What not to give birth to: A Brat What my girlfriend is: A Brat One of the most famous and yet unheralded, underrated places in Cleveland. Unheralded as in, how the f*** does this legend only have 25 reviews? Are you kidding me Yelp? That's what I mean when I say Yelp doesn't always "get it." If this was the gourmet hipster grilled cheese place (cough Melt cough) it'd have 573 reviews by now. AT LEAST. But Frank's. Oh Frank's. My Frank's. So delicious. So unheralded. And that's what you get from a place named after Frank E Muniz, Frank Ophile, and Frank Salott. In the corner of the world famous and historic Old West Side Market, this little stand is serving up the most delicious bratwurst on rolls that you can imagine. The people giving this place 3 stars or less, I just can't with you. I just can't. 5 star price, 5 star service, and one of the best Brats I've ever had. Don't forget to add sexy spicy mustard to it. It's just soooo good. Still, what do you expect from a place named after Frank Zappa, Frank A Sessment, and Frank N Stein. Perhaps there might be one Brat seller hidden away somewhere in the state of Wisconsin that is superio, but for the most part you will not find a bratwurst that tastes this good. Charcoal Inn South (Sheboygan, WI) is probably my fave, but that's because of the massive fresh dollops of butter they put on there. For the Brat itself, this one is as good as any, and better than the vast majority. If you are in the WSM and not vegetarian, you simply, unequivocally have to try one. Anyway, what else do you expect from a place named after Frank Sinatra, Frank Ocean, and Frank O Phone. They're also filling and dirt cheap, so as I say, if you are in Cleveland you simply must give it a try. I know you will be possibly more drawn to be same hipster stuff that you can find in Williamsburg and San Francisco, but bear with me and come to the West Side Market and try this - along with a lemon sugar crepe from du luxe, and some spicy jerky from czuchraj. And if you like those three life-changing items, hmu and I'll give you a nice list of other life-changing Cleveland eats... and there are many. But what do you expect from a place named after Frank F Urter, Frank Sfornuttin, and Frank Leemadeer. I don't give a damn.

    $3 for a bratwurst sammie. $4 for a bratwurst sammie and sauerkraut. I wasn't a huge fan of the bread it came on because it got pretty soggy halfway through. But the bratwurst itself was pretty good. And for $4, that's pretty cheap! Tip - don't forget the mustard!

    When I'm at the Westside Market you will find me standing in line for one of Frank's Bratwurst. I like to keep it simple so I can enjoy the flavors of the bratwurst. You definitely want to enjoy this on the fresh hard roll it is the only way to go, don't worry about it being too hard or tough it's always fresh, tender with just enough chew to the roll add a little mustard and walk way so you won't be tempted to order another. Ordered plain its $3.50 you'd be hard pressed to find a better one at any price.

    Best bratwurst ever!
    The Travel C.

    Quite possibly the best bratwurst ever. The brats were cooked perfectly and were served on a hard roll that was baked to perfection! The bratwurst were so good we went back for a second round! The people behind the counter were so nice and friendly. We will definitely be back for more.

    Do you know if the brats are made of beef, pork, or a mix?

    All pork!

    It's simple (soft or hard roll, kraut or no kraut) but that's what makes it so amazing and classic.

    We just had Smash Time Food Truck at my son's graduation party Friday evening. Hands down the BEST…read morefood truck I've ever used or encountered at any venue I've attended. The food was just spectacular! So many options and such creative spins that tasted out of this world. Everything was served hot and fresh. My guests RAVED all night long about how amazing the food was. Several took food home and the texts rolled in the next day as well. On top of that, the staff was just amazing. So personable, friendly, accommodating, while working quickly and efficiently. Everyone enjoyed hanging out and talking with them while ordering. My party truly would not of been the same without them there. I will definitely use Smash Time again and highly recommend!

I specifically sought out to try one of them. SWAT's menu specializes in stuffed burgers and they have some very creative options. I was looking for something lighter and healthier so I went with Smash Time. Their menu consists of different taco variations + apps like bacon wrapped pierogies and Rockefeller frites. I wasn't in love with the prices (apps were $6 and tacos sold 2 for $10 or 3 for $12) as it prohibited me from trying an app along with a taco without spending at least $16 on lunch. Comparatively, SWAT appeared to be priced well with unique burger creations ranging from $8 to $10 along with $3 sides. I ordered the gangnam style tacos with roast pork, kimchi and chili sauce. The pork was flavorful, but it felt like a taco I could make myself at home. Nothing really stood out from the large, competitive taco game - normal flour tortilla, some cabbage and what tasted like store bought chili sauce. It was ok but it did not make me wanna dance gangnam style. I would be back to try the rockefeller frites (the lady in front ordered them and they looked awesome), but I won't seek this food truck out specifically amongst the bunch.

My co-worker ordered the Balkan burger. A short while later, our food was ready. My kimchi fries, although an interesting combination, were very tasty. I ate every one of them!

They had a wide range of menu items from perogies to burgers to hotdog to tacos. I ended up getting the pulled pork sandwich which was $9. The bun on the sandwich was very good. It was thick bread and very fresh. The pork itself was also delicious. They also had "touch sauce" that was similar to the sauce at a sushi restaurant, almost like a spicy mayo. I don't know how to explain it but it was so so good. My friends were literally just eating the sauce because it was so good. Overall, this meal did not blow me away but for a food truck meal, it was good.
