What's Not to love about a place that makes sandwiches?!! They have many sandwiches to choose from whether you are a meat or veggie lover.

meh. first of all, these subs sure are unnecessarily pricey. and i'm not a $5 footlong gal. i'll pay good money for a sandwich but the price can only be high if the sandwich is GOOD. which brings me to point #2... these sandwiches just don't have a lot going on. i had the pizza sub, half of which i ate yesterday and the other half of which i ate today for lunch. it wasn't terrible, just bland and boring. it's tough to make melting, gooey cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms and marinara bland but congrats, La Bodega, you've done it! also, it was a little light in the meat and filling department, i.e., 75% bread, 25% meat/cheese. i definitely felt gipped. read more

I've only eaten here a few times. It might not seem like much when you walk in, but the food is pretty darn good. I'd eat there a whole lot more, but it seems like they're closed a lot of the time when I want to go there. They have great sandwiches, and they're huge, yet somehow I can always finish mine. read more

Rosemary ciabatta roast beef sandwich is my fav! It's a cute little shop, for simple and fast service. I was a little nervous when I first tried this place out....in my head I was worried it would be like any ordinary Subway sandwich kind of deal, but actually the flavors were solid. I loved the blend of herbs on the bread and sizable meat portion they used for their sandwich. I also tried their potato and chive soup, which was delicious. The soup wasn't overly creamy or rich, which was good because I can only take a certain amount of heavy soups like that. The meal was solid and worth the price, so if you are in the neighborhood and want a quick bite this is definitely a good place to stop by and try out. read more

Best lunch option in tremont. Its that simple. Sandwiches are creative and they do NOT skimp you on the meat. I have to say that i often have trouble finishing my entire sandwich. Turkey #27 is a mainstay and highly recommended + roasted red pepper and on the asiago cheese bread. Sandwiches come with Lays (baked or full-fat). The only drawback is that the sandwiches tend to come HEAVY on the mayo, do yourself a favor and always ask for it on the side. read more

Yum! Love this place. Big sandwiches for a great price. I always get more than one meal when I order here! I always get the California- it's the best! turkey, artichoke hearts, sweet red pepper mayo, provolone cheese, and some zesty seasonings all toasted to perfection. Doesn't get any better. read more

This place is sweet! I tried their special sandwich of the day - veggie grilled cheese. It had cheese, spinach, tomatoes, and lots more delicious veggies. The sandwiches are huge so you'll definitely have some left overs! Can't wait to try more sandwiches and soups from this place. read more

I've ate here a couple times now and every time I have definitely been satisfied. It's solid 4 star place and I can't see why anyone would disagree. A little quiet looking on the outside, it'd probably be hard to find if you didn't already know it's on the corner. For some reason, I love the goofy artwork on the walls- I want it all (which I suppose I could do since its for sale). Go look at it even if you don't eat anything it'll make your day 100% better. Anyway, solid sandwich shop. I've had the southwestern (love) and Italian sub (also great) as well as a massive salad. The portions are great! Big enough to be like: yeah, I can probably get two substantial meals so maybe I won't eat the whole thing and fell sick later sized. I haven't really experienced the overly friendliness of the staff that some have mentioned but that doesn't bother me. With the subs at least, the bread can kind of take over the rest of the ingredients and I end up ripping half of it off. They come with the choice of of regular, bbq, or baked chips but unless there's SALT AND VINEGAR CHIPS (please I beg of thee) I'd rather have them not be included and save a little $. I do think some of the ingredients (boiled eggs on salad and meats) could be of better quality, especially in the "crunchy" confines of the tremont / ohio city / hingetown area, but le bodega is a solid choice and if you like spicy the southwestern sub will probably change your life. I realize this review sounds more negative than I intended, those are just the stopping from 5 star points in my eyes. The sandwiches are great, forget subway and jjs and come here instead! read more

La Bodega - Cobb salad and the southwestern sub - Sandwiches Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Awesome eats and a great, friendly staff. Really big menu. Love the Rosemary Ciabatta bread with turkey, smoked Gouda, sprouts and balsamic mayo. Definitely one of my new fave places! read more

I don't see how this place has such rave reviews. Went the other day -- I got some pita with hummus & veggies. Boyfriend got some turkey sandwich. He commented that the turkey was poor quality -- mine tasted like stale crusty pita overloaded with tasteless muddy hummus. We ate there and both had a stomach ache before even finishing our sandwiches. We tossed over half of our order. Needless to say, I will not be back. read more

Great place for a quick lunch--seems a little pricey but you definitely get a bang for your buck with large sandwiches and chips -- portions are great. read more

When I actually drove downtown for work, this was my escape for lunch. Love the staff, very friendly. Sandwiches are delicious and filling.

Just a great local sandwich shop. The sizes are big enough not to make you too full on your lunch hour AND you get a bag of chips! I love taking friends here for the first time and listening to them rave about how delicious the food is. One of the biggest reasons I miss living in Tremont is because of this place. I'd become a regular if they had one on the east side. The only down side is they close early but that's probably because of all the bars in the area take up the parking. read more

Great salad and sandwiches. Roast beef sandwiches are way above average...especially the blue cheese. Delivery catering was prompt, ordering was easy. read more

My number one lunch place. I will find any excuse to swing by here and pick something up! Not a vegetarian, but my favorites here are the Veggie Pizza sub and Eggplant sub. Because who needs meat when these subs are so good? I also love the location it is in, I usually make a trip here and then browse around the library for a few. Perfect lunch! read more

Good little sandwich place in Tremont, but we were not overwhelmed. The bread was delicious, but the sandwiches were overpriced. I had a Greek sub with no turkey on it and requested additional veggies instead, and I got a paltry piece of lettuce and like seven sprouts. I paid the same as what someone would pay with turkey which would have been fine if I had gotten more of the green stuff. There was a cooler that had lots of bottled beverages and I had some really stellar tea. Probably won't be in a hurry to go back. read more

The quality of turkey they use is not very good....took it off and ate the rest. The bread on the sandwich was great. But for the price I thought they would use better meat. read more

We were garage/yard sale shopping around Tremont and decided to stop in at La Bodega. The girlfriend and I were not disappointed at all. I got the #53 and she got the #43. Both were very good! They we're out of sub bread which I was bummed about but the regular sourdough bread was just as good if not possibly better. After all the walking we did, it was nice to sit in the A/C and enjoy a delicious lunch. Worth a try for sure! read more

This review applies to the new ASIA TOWN location- Our office had high hopes for this location as there are only a few good places to grab a sandwich in this area and we could use some variety. I was really bummed about my sandwich. I ordered the #40- It's supposed to be: tomato, fresh mozzarella, fresh basil and pesto mayo. What I received: a mayo sandwich with some thinly sliced tomato, two of the smallest basil leaves I have ever seen and ONE, small, thinly sliced piece of fresh mozzarella for the WHOLE sandwich. The sandwich is cut in half so I basically had one tiny half-moon slice of cheese on each side of the sandwich and sadly only one side got the baby basil leaves. I am not looking for a jaw breaker here, but I would have liked each half to have enough ingredients on it to count as an actual sandwich. I would have also preferred that they not try to compensate for the lack of main ingredients with mayo. Officially, the #40 if you are interested, should be listed as a mayo sandwich garnished with some tomato. I would leave the basil out of the description completely. read more

Went to the Asiatown location today since I live and work right around the corner. The grilled provolone sandwich lunch special is up there in contention for my favorite sandwich ever. Its fantastic. read more

This place got some interesting menu. Very European, location is nice. Also like the design inside

I was looking for a quick lunch place in the Tremont area and was excited to find this sandwich shop! The southwestern sub was recommended and did not disappoint! Definitely will check out this place again. read more

Chicken tasted like sand and the peppers were so soggy in my Greek salad! Not going back

I've been to the new one on Superior twice. The sandwiches are huge - enough to share or for two meals - and both that I had there were really good. The salad was also good and large enough to share. In the last trip I had the tortilla soup - tasty, but thin and not many vegetables or chicken in it. The building itself is very cute, with big windows and art work. My only problem with this place is everything is served on throwaway materials - paper, foil, styrofoam - even if you are eating in. I will definitely go back, but I hope that changes. read more

I ate at the on Superior Ave. I got chefs salad soup drink $25.00. Very much over priced for the food. Salad was bland even with horrible blue cuz that had not taste. The onion soup was ok but microwaved. The decor and people were nice that's why it's a 2. Other wise. Good wise. 1. read more

First off, I'm actually a little surprise there are some negative reviews for this little Tremont gem. I just love la bodega. I live and work in Tremont so this a very frequent lunch spot for me. The service is VERY quick and totally consistent. I've tried a large variety of sandwiches and salads. Their chicken salad wrap will absolutely blow your mind. The BLT is exactly what you would want from a BLT. But my go to sandwich is always the number 48. It's the most perfect grilled cheese with bacon and tomato. The only reason for the four star rating is because they offer soup...and it's nothing more then mediocre. For a place that really has the sandwich shop thing down, I think they should either offer a damn good soup of the day to go with your amazing sandwich, or don't offer it at all. All in all, I'm so very happy this place exist in my wonderful little neighborhood. read more

First time there for lunch. Picked up a couple subs. 45 Southwestern Sub, Turkey, Bacon, Jalapeno Peppers, Colored Peppers, Tomato, Onion, Spices, Hot Sauce, Cajun Mayo, Jack Cheese 47 California Sub, Turkey, Roasted Red Peppers, Artichoke Hearts, Tomato, Onion, Spices, Garlic-Sun Dried Tomato Mayo, Mozzarella Loved both of them. If you like a bit of spice the 45 has just the right amount and heat and is packed with flavor. My wife really love the 47! read more

I go to La Bodega for salads, usually the #7 Chinese chicken salad as it's my favorite on the menu. I have never been disappointed. Greens are always fresh, salads are always well made. The price is totally reasonable for the size and quality of the salads. ($10 or so.) I wouldn't recommend the salmon (really, lox) salad, however, unless you are a huge fan of lox. I love the little shop's atmosphere. Low-key & charming. I usually get my food to go, but it's a comfy place to eat in, too. read more

I want to love this place but I've put in more than my share of second chances and just can't get on board. Today I got the Californian sub #47. I think the bread is the most important part of any sandwich which is possibly why I wasn't thrilled. It tasted like a grocery store bun at best with no goodness in the middle. And for $9 something a sandwich I would expect to taste the turkey in between bread and too much mayo. read more

Wow. Had the tuna melt. It was our first time. Will definitely have another sandwich from them again. Little on the pricey side.

I really want to love this place. I adore their wide variety of sandwiches, and especially their extensive list of vegetarian sandwiches. I have not had a bad experience with their sandwiches yet. I do however, have a problem with the staff. I recently went in at 3:30 on a Saturday. A blazing hot Saturday and was looking forward to some respite in the air conditioned dining room. I was disappointed that upon our arrival, we were told that the dining room was closed in anticipation of them closing at 4. They had already cleaned it, so we had to take it to go or sit out in the sun. Now, I was in the restaurant industry for 6 years. Never, NEVER, were you allowed to pull a stunt like that. If a customer walked in at 4:02, you still let them come in and sit down if they wanted to. The fact that we came in a full 30 minutes before they were closed and were told to leave was sad. I couldn't help but wonder if the owners knew about this kind of behavior towards paying customers.... read more

The staff is always so friendly. Food is reliably great. I've never been disappointed!!

This is one of my favorite places to get lunch in Cleveland. I used to go here a lot when I lived on the West side - now just when I'm over that way. I recommend the Turkey w/ red pepper and artichoke (#27, I think) as well as their tuna. The sandwich comes with chips (or a banana) & a beverage. It's reasonably priced for what it is- although I wish you could get just the sandwich without the other stuff, because I'm not big on beverages and I would rather just save my money and drink water. read more

Good but salads are overpriced for what you're getting in. Would recommend they drop price lbs Salads or include a small soup or something. Just a bowl of lettuce and small amount of veggies and choice for $12. With drink $13. Not cool. Staff is cool though. read more

Great lunch spot! Chicken sesame salad was a good size and very filling. Staff was extremely friendly and place was cute. Definitely coming back! read more

Nice local place in Tremont. Many choices of food options. I have been there a half dozen times. All experiences have been good.

Great little unassuming lunch spot. I met a friend of mine there for lunch the other day and I was pleasantly surprised. Admittedly, I drove right by the place. I ordered the Southwestern Sub which was delicious! Spicy, but not overwhelming. It heats up nicely in the toaster oven for leftovers and I had the second half of it today for lunch. They have a nice selection of drinks in a cooler and provide bottle recycling. I also appreciate that the sub was wrapped in a foil sheet and paper, no plastic! The price was fair and the food was quite tasty. We sat at a nice table out front and did some people watching which made for an enjoyable afternoon. read more

Very good wraps from this cool spot in Tremont. Easy to get in and out of. I only picked up and carried out. It was a 90 degree day and I don't think they had air in there so I am not sure how comfortable it would be to eat in. As far as the food goes, it is simple and fresh ingrediants that are priced well. I reccomend. read more

Love this place. It's very consistent. The Chinese Chicken Salad and the Lemon Chicken Salad wrap are my favorites.

The sandwiches here are consistently made and delicious. It's a casual place with good prices. I always take my sandwich to go, so I can't speak to the dining experience, though I know the dining room is small. They do have outdoor seating for nice days. The people are always friendly. Highly recommend! read more
