| - A Cleveland institution! Polka, pierogi, pies and sausage. They'll try to draw you in with huge pieces of pie and cake at the beginning of the cafeteria line. That's because once they load you up with food, you'd never consider taking a piece!
Your first question might be, "what university? I don't see any university around here..." Why, Cleveland University, of course. You know the place has been around for a while if it's named after a school that flopped in 1852 after graduating only 11 people. (The restaurant opened in 1923, so it's probably just named after the street... but still!)
Tony Bourdain, Michael Symon and Bill Clinton haven't gone wrong. The meat, pierogi, cabbage and noodles - all delicious.
The walls are covered in photos from Cleveland's past.
Note the limited hours - they're open only for lunch on weekdays (11-3) and dinner Friday (5-9) and Saturday (4-9).
No one leaves hungry - they'll force two sides and a roll to go alongside your ample main course. Almost everything on the menu is $7.25, including all of the above.
Be sure to bring an extra $15 for the most street-cred-worthy graphic T in 216.
