Taco Tonto’s

“A giant burrito from Taco Tontos. The regular is filling but the portion of a giant is what a burrito should be. Bonus points if you get the cheeseburgerito. You will not be disappointed.”

And the food is surprisingly good. It’s kind of amazing how good it is for how cheap it is.” Via Asp821/Reddit Credit:New China Buffet/FacebookBig Al’s Diner

3030 Superior Ave., Cleveland
Because pho is an essential (and reasonably priced) part of a balanced diet, not to mention one’s sanity, noodle shops like this one hold a very important place in our lives. Winter or summer, a bowl of pho is more than food; it’s a restorative elixir that sets us on a brighter path. Their phos are mostly $11.95 for a small, $12.95 for a large and $14.95 for an extra large. You can also get a bahn mi for 6.95 and it’s very delicious. Credit: Scene ArchivesTick Tock Tavern

This old school neighborhood barbecue joint offers up all-you-can-eat fish fry’s for only $9.95 on Wednesdays and Fridays and we’d highly recommend checking it out. They also have .25 cent muscles on Mondays and Thursdays. Credit: Scene ArchivesAmigos Taqueria

“Buckeye Beer Engine has great wings and the engine hot was always a great blend to me of very spicy sauce that still had great flavor. Plus you can get a basket of tots which is a big plus,” Valan_Luca Credit:Scene ArchivesKintaro Sushi & Hot Pot
7325 Northcliff Ave., Brooklyn and 3111 Westgate Mall Ste. A128, Fairview Park
Loved our first carry out order from this place! We ordered the steak and shrimp hibachi as well as three rolls: the Tesla, the Chevrolet, and the spicy salmon. The hibachi was fantastic. I loved the veggies that were included and both the steak and shrimp were cooked perfectly. The sushi was delicious. My favorite roll was the Tesla but the Chevrolet was also very good. The spicy salmon roll was a very basic roll but good, Britt M. on Yelp

2240 Lee Rd., Cleveland Heights
Despite what that one guy on Yelp said about the “bread,” we’re slightly obsessed with Zoma. We love the communal atmosphere of the experience, where diners sit around a platter of colorful, savory stews, pinching off bites with stretchy injera. Rare is the place that hungry vegetarians and omnivores can so peaceably coexist thanks to items starring chopped greens, chickpeas, lentils, beef and chicken. The housemade Ethiopian hot sauce, fueled by an exotic berbere spice blend, is righteous. Credit:Zoma/FacebookEverest Cafe

Oh man, the gyro at Mars Bar in Lakewood is worth getting this place on its own. It’s one of the best versions in town: Warm, thick and plush pita is piled high with flavorful shaved lamb-and-beef meat, crisp red onion, thick-sliced tomato and creamy tzatziki sauce made by the owner’s mother. And you can get it until 2:30 a.m. Credit: Scene ArchivesNino’s Italian
