| - I'll be honest. I'm a meat-and-potatoes kinda guy. I've pingponged all over the place with the idea of whether or not I should be a vegetarian, but at the end of the day, I just could never wake up and know that I'd never be able to eat another burger at B Spot, the delicious chicken wings at The Greenhouse Tavern, or one of Sheila F's juicy roasts. I Maybe I'm just selfish and weak-willed, but in any case, that's my take on the matter.
That said, if my doctor ever came up to me and told me I'd die within a month unless I quit eating meat cold turkey, the Flaming Ice Cube would be a place that would make the transition light years easier. I've had all sorts of vegetarian food, and this was by far the best. The quality of food at the Flaming Ice Cube was amazing and I was totally impressed by everything I ate. If I were a vegetarian, I'd happily eat here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner...and if they were open later, for Fourth Meal too.
My SIL is an ardent vegetarian, and after her and the rest of my in-laws sacrificed a lot of time and money to come up and watch me graduate from law school, I wanted to do something that she'd enjoy doing and something that would make her happy. Many times, she winds up eating something not so great while the rest of us feast, and I always feel bad and wish that wasn't the case. Earlier in the year, my law school had a Wellness Fair at which they brought therapy dogs and other organizations to the school; one of these organizations was The Flaming Ice Cube. I forget what exact sample they distributed, but I remember that it was delicious, and I also remember thinking to myself that this would be a great place to take my SIL.
We had a variety of different things to eat. There were several great options on the menu and I had a hard time narrowing my choice down to just one item! I had an Italian Panini, Sheila F. and my SIL had chick'n salad sandwiches, my FIL had a Buffalo Panini, and my MIL had a bowl of soup. The Buffalo Panini was hands down my favorite menu item--it was spicy, creamy, and yummy. My Italian Panini was good, I definitely could tell the difference between the veggie meat and the real meat that's used at Subway, but it wasn't enough to make me not want to order it again. We also had Summer Rolls as an appetizer. I've had these at other restaurants, but the Flaming Ice Cube's summer rolls were much, much better. The peanut sauce that accompanied them was really, really good too.
They had a variety of veggie bars for sale in the store, as well as other items as well.
If you like to people watch, try to get the front table with a spectacular view of Public Square and downtown Cleveland. We had a great view of the Soldiers and Sailors Monument.
Also, another reviewer said there's no bathroom here. There is a bathroom here--just ask, and they'll take you to it. They probably don't want people coming in off the street, using the bathroom, and leaving without enjoying their great food.
All in all, whenever I need to take vegetarians, vegans, or simply anyone who wants a break from the norm out to eat, I'll make a beeline to the Flaming Ice Cube. I was blown away by the quality and taste of the food, and it's yet another fantastic addition to the diverse restaurant scene here in Cleveland.
