Why locals love it: A Greek-Lebanese cafe-and-market crossing on Detroit Avenue that doesn't read like a restaurant from outside
Tip: Order the shakshuka and a Greek coffee for breakfast; the front market sells olive oil and tinned fish to take home

More hidden gems in Cleveland
Mitchell's Homemade Ice Cream ★ 4.5
Mitchell's Homemade Ice Cream on West 25th Street in Ohio City, the Mitchell brothers' scoop room and production kitchen inside the former 1919 Rialto.
Why locals love it: A scoop shop and production facility inside a former 1919 movie-theater entrance you can walk under without noticing
Tip: Look for the cinema marquee on West 25th; the production room is glass-walled, watch the ice cream made fresh
Larder Delicatessen and Bakery ★ 4.6
Larder Delicatessen and Bakery in the Hingetown firehouse on West 29th Street, the Jeremy Umansky and Allie La Valle koji project, runs the most quietly.
Why locals love it: A James Beard-recognized koji and fermentation deli inside a converted firehouse that reads as a small lunch counter
Tip: Order the koji-cured corned beef sandwich on house rye; the deli closes early on weekdays, plan for lunch
Slyman's Restaurant ★ 4.8
Slyman's Restaurant on St Clair Avenue is the Slyman family corned beef counter since 1964 with a busy weekday breakfast and lunch trade for downtown workers.
Why locals love it: A 1964 sit-down deli on a non-touristy stretch of St Clair Avenue, hidden in plain sight by suburban diners not in the know
Tip: Order the corned beef on rye and ask for extra mustard; cash and card both work but the line moves faster at the counter
Phnom Penh Restaurant ★ 4.3
Phnom Penh Restaurant across from the West Side Market on West 25th Street, a family-run BYOB Cambodian room, runs the city's defining Southeast Asian noodle.
Why locals love it: A family-run BYOB Cambodian room across from the West Side Market that almost nobody walking the market notices
Tip: BYOB so bring a wine across the street from the market; the coconut milk Cambodian curry is the standout
Tommy's Restaurant ★ 4.2
Tommy's Restaurant on Coventry Road in Cleveland Heights since 1972, a vegetarian-leaning diner that hides a meat-eater menu, anchors the Cedar-Lee east-side.
Why locals love it: A 1972 vegetarian-with-meat-options diner that locals know is way better than the Coventry tourist menu suggests
Tip: Order the falafel sandwich plus a chocolate hand-mixed milkshake; the menu has every diet covered side-by-side
Velvet Tango Room ★ 4.7
Velvet Tango Room on Columbus Road in Tremont is Paulius Nasvytis's unmarked cocktail room since 1996, with pre-Prohibition drinks and a vintage soundtrack.
Why locals love it: An unmarked 1996 craft cocktail room on an industrial stretch of Columbus Road that you'd never walk past
Tip: Book ahead for a table on Friday or Saturday; every drink is built from scratch, expect a wait between rounds
