Not every night is a sit-down-and-dine kind of evening. There are nights where nothing is quite as satisfying as carry-out, and there are other evenings where you do decide to dine in, but you’re in and out in what seems like mere minutes. When speedy food is the menu for the evening, there are plenty of places that are so much more than traditional fast food could ever be, and they’re located right here in Greater Cleveland.

Often noted as the best New York-style pizza in all of Cleveland, the menu at Vincenza's Pizza & Pasta always offers a delicious meal. It actually got its start in New York in 1957, but the third generation of owner-operators brought this delicious tradition to Cleveland in 1979.

Freshly baked pita bread will tempt the senses unlike any other. Not only is it one of the healthiest bread products in the world, but it's also one of the tastiest baked goods in Northeast Ohio. Since 1970, this landmark eatery and market has been serving locals with flavors they can't resist.
