CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Did someone say Lakewood has a phenomenal array of cuisine? Our readers seem to think so. When we asked for nominations, they came pouring in. We took the top 25 and created a poll, so our loyal foodie readers (you!) can vote for and help to crown a winner. Now, friends, it’s crunch (and chew) time. Voting continues until Monday and they are steadily coming in. There is a nice mixture of establishments that have secured spots in the top of the poll right now. But as past contests have shown us... this means nothing. Will Woodstock remain on top? How about Pier W? They have lots of fans who love everything about them. Don’t count anyone out; some places have a one vote margin. While the list features 25 places, there is a vast array of dining options. If you haven’t already voted, go for it. Don’t miss out, Monday is the last day. To make it easy for you: each establishment is listed in alphabetical order below. As a reminder, you can vote once every hour for your favorite until polling closes at 12 p.m. on Monday, April 28. Who will take home the title of “The Best” you will decide. The votes are continuing to climb. If you haven’t yet had a chance to check out the dining guide we created, here’s the link: Lakewood best restaurants 2025: Top 25 places to eat and drink in Greater Cleveland suburb At the conclusion of voting, “Best of Cleveland” reporter Peter Chakerian and food and culture writer, Alex Darus will visit the top restaurant/bar with the most reader votes.
