Where is the Best Lunch Spot in Cleveland, Ohio?
Go BEFORE you get hungry. Everyone on the west side will be waiting in line. Their soups are special: I love th German Dumpling & everyone else loves the Matza Ball. Grilled Chicken Tenderloins are excellent and anything smeared with Joe’s superb garlic mayonaise is worth time away from friends& family for fresh breath recovery! Every incarnation of Corned Beef is HUGE and all other portions are very generous. You may starve by the time you’re seated, but you’ll leave a little larger and satisfied. They have REAL mashed potatoes ! The best thing about the staff at Joe’s is that they’re really nice to Grandma even though their food is only ALMOST as good as what comes out of her kitchen.Pros + Great food, Great service, Great valueCons – Great wait to get in, too hungry to wait, always too crowded
My husband and I have introduced a number of friends to Max’s. It’s now the #1 lunch favorite of the gang. We drive An hour + to enjoy our favorite(s). A couple of them like – and swear by – the reuben. When the herbed- battered onion rings are properly cooked, they’re phenom! The rare roast beef sandwich on rye is to-die-for. Watch the sugar cookies, ’cause a cookie afficionado in our group will attest they are tasteless. The soups have always been tasty. To top the meal, there’s nothing like the Chocolate Macademia Nut Pie, but don’t bother with the cakes. Don’t go here for service or ambiance, but do try the many food options; the menu is huge.
