Angie’s Soul Cafe, University Heights
Shortly after Sauce the City closed its University Heights location this past summer, Akin Affrica of Soul Republic United Restaurants announced that he was taking the spot over. Earlier this year, he opened the doors to the newest Angie’s Soul Cafe (14480 Cedar Rd., 216-331-0935). The fast-casual restaurant joins other Angie’s locations in Midtown, Cleveland, Warrensville Hts., and Lee/Harvard. Unlike the Carnegie Ave. restaurant, this latest one follows the “express” model that newer shops have adopted. Those stores offer a slightly condensed menu. Credit: Photo by BurkleHagen
