Quintessential Cleveland food history all under one architecturally spectacular ceiling! If you visit in the winter, be sure to find the secret stairs up to the balcony.

This teahouse is the perfect antidote to over-starbucks-ization! Locally owned and operated. It's a funky, hippy-dippy, very laid-back vibe there and they have delicious Middle Eastern food. The menu varies, but their Falafel is divine. Enjoy their wood burning fireplace in the winter.
