| - I was in Cleveland last week for a conference and needed to find a convenient vegan friendly place to call my foodie home away from home. FIC to the rescue. Staying nearby at the Marriott, it was a short walk to FIC each evening for a filling, affordable vegan dinner. I look for a few things in a restaurant: Fresh ingredients, Large salads, great tasting entrees. I don't do dessert so I have no comments about those.
My dinner each day consisted of the Flaming Ice Cube house salad with either oil and vinegar (it comes with their own ranch) or with a topping of hummus (which was excellent) or with one of their veggie burgers on top. One evening I had their Mmmushroom burger too. It was quite nice.
Some things to note: There website needs a serious overhaul. Service can be a little slow. If you are in a rush, you would be wise to let them know. The staff is excellent. Friendly and knowledgeable. I gave 4 stars because 5 stars is vegan nirvana. I'm not sure I've truly experience that yet, anywhere.
Let there be no doubt, if I ever find myself in Cleveland again, FIC will be my go-to place for a solid, reliable, tasty vegan meal. When you get to Cleveland, stop in. You will not be disappointed.
