GREAT CORNED BEEF!
No joke. This place may not get the accolades of a slyman's, but it is the real deal when you are looking for a true corned beef sandwich in downtown cleveland (without the line). The sandwich itself has no frills; consists of 1lb of corned beef, slice of swiss, rye bread with pickles and mustard on the side. You will leave full or with leftovers.
I went with coworkers for lunch and got a table inside. The decor is late 60's, but thats not why you go. Karl himself was working behind the counter and was really nice. Service is good and price is fair. It's also about a block from the Browns' stadium. Stop eating the hype and check out the real cleveland corned beef sandwich at Karl's.
