Clevelanders, report. - 06/06/23 03:31 AM
Niece got married this weekend, in Cleveland. My extended family got 2 vrbo's. I stayed at the corner of Ashford and 105th. I would classify it as a working class neighborhood. Curious what the locals would call it.
No problems for us. Did see several cars with no headlights on running stop lights. 4 atv's with young kids riding, just going down 105th. But, I walked to the corner grocery to get pop. Was surprised when I walked in - cashier was behind plexiglass. I was watched, as was everyone that entered.
Ate at a McDonalds just down 105th on Friday. Couldn't find anywhere else, being on a time schedule - which was screwed by McD's. Worst service in the world, ever.
Ate breakfast on Saturday at Landmark Restaurant. On St. Clair. Absolutely fantastic. Those employees CARED. Breakfast was great, price was good, but the service was phenomenal. It was so good we asked if they were open Sunday, for probably 22 people. Waitress said yes, but make a reservation. After we got a tally of the number of family that was going, bro called them and set it up.
23 of us for breakfast on Sunday. Had the same waitress. She owned it. Took the orders.............and my land, none of us could believe how fast the food came out. She, and the cook/s nailed it beyond belief. (and she got a hefty tip - 20% on the bill, plus 3 of us added to it)
It was just so nice to see a restaurant in what might be described as an impoverished area - doing one heck of a job with the food, and the SERVICE. (the take out orders were huge).
For the Clevelanders, the locals, thoughts on Ashford and 105th, and thoughts on Landmark? It was kinda cool to see the pictures in the restaurant. It's a place Biden stopped at during his campaign for president. Got there, looked at the pictures and said "Hey, I remember watching him be here."
