If you're looking for a quick, authentic, Jamaican spot then this is the place. Inside seating is very sparse, but the takeout is unbeatable.

This restaurant is definitely considered to be a little bit nicer, but with their refreshing take on the menu by offering half dishes and otherwise affordable pricing, it makes it one of my favorite neighborhood haunts.

Also located within the Waterloo Arts District, and just a short jaunt away from the coffee shop, Citizen Pie is another go-to for me. Chef V opened this iconic restaurant just a few years ago. He hails from Lithuania, but is no stranger to a classic Neapolitan-style Italian pizza pie. They use a wood-fired oven imported from Italy, and the pies are ready in about three minutes. They do offer take-out but in my opinion you lose the full authentic experience if you do not eat there. That being said, unfortunately seating is again sparse.

Parks & Nature

Just a few minutes from the house by foot is a park that is owned and operated by the Cleveland Metroparks. They have one of the best beaches and Cleveland, a marina, and a few short paved trails.

A renowned art destination, the CMA is a short drive from the house. And it is free admission. With the newly renovated grand atrium, it is absolutely breath-taking.
