    Soooo good. Best brisket I have ever had. It literally fell apart. Wife got the brisket burger with cheddar and I got jealous. Baked beans were amazing. And for 2 bucks get the giant piece of corn bread that is not dry and sawdust like most places. Was awesome. Will be back. 3 minute walk from theaters which is where we came from.

    Napkin Score: 4/5 Smash - Parmesan garlic wings fried to perfection 🥰. I smashed them all during my lunch and I have no regrets. 😋 Pass - The Mac and cheese was basic. I ate a couple bites and then put it aside. A lil disappointed, but the wings made up for it. Fabulous customer service!! First time visit, but I'll be back to try some other menu items.

    We found this while staying at the Hyatt in downtown Cleveland. They are located on the street level inside. We we walking by and saw a sign for breakfast. We got alot of good food and it was really cheap for what you get. We decided to go back the next day for some brisket. Fantastic. Definitely in the list of best we have ever had. This will be a regular stop for us on our Cleveland mini vacations from now on. Friendly owners and great food. Give them a try. The mustard is awesome.

    I was born in the south so BBQ is something we hold near and dear to our hearts. Having lived/vacationed all over the country I have tried almost every region of BBQ. This is on my list of top 5, no lie. I have never been big on brisket but theirs is hands down some of the best I have every had in my life. The ribs are delicious, meaty and flavorful. The hand cut fries are both ample and delicious. The mustard based sauce is out of this world as well as their “signature” sauce (can’t recall the name). The coleslaw was average. I had the lunch special with two meats because I was being greedy and it was the last opportunity I had to sample the menu before I left town. Great prices and even better customer service. I split it up for lunch and dinner that evening. If I’m ever back in the area I will definitely bring my family.

    Friendly staff, awesome folks. Ribs tasted like carcinogens, coleslaw dressing is literally mayonnaise, mac and cheese was literally one solid piece, onion rings were okay, french fries were bangin but thats kinda sad to spend 40 dollars on food that makes you gag. :(

    I ordered the angus brisket entree with basked beans and Mac and cheese. I do have to say that was the best brisket I have eaten very tender and you really don’t even need the sauces it comes with. The baked beans were nice and smoky lol not too extreme tho the only thing I didn’t like was the Mac and cheese it tasted very refrigerated and it just didn’t taste like it was made with love. But other than that every thing was perfect 👌🏽

    Go here!! Amazing smoked meats. Pulled pork was fantastic. A little tricky to find. Downstairs at the Old Arcade (on Euclid). Right at the bottom if the stairs, to your left. Go! Go now! Seriously...get moving!!

    Food was great. I had the ribs, mac and cheese, and baked beans the first time. I devoured it before I could take a pic. The boney boy is good too. A little pricey but worth it to support local small businesses.

    Was in Cleveland for the football game. Decided before I headed back to New York that I should try whatever the staple of Cleveland food is. Went to google and learned that it’s a sandwich called the Polish boy. This restaurant was recommended as a good place to get one and boy was I not disappointed at all. Absolutely incredible. Excellent sandwich and excellent service!

    On a business trip and just the title of this establishment caught my attention. Greeted right away from a friendly employee. Everything on the menu sounded great. I had the brisket burger with a side of cajun fries and I added a side of potato salad. Meal came out quick! The brisket is served with the BBQ on the side which enhances the flavors of the brisket. The BBQ is good and has lots of flavor. I asked for an extra packet to dip my fries. The prices were perfect for the quality of the meal.

    Stopped by for lunch on a whim and will definitely be going back! Portion size was reasonable for the price and the brisket sandwich was delicious. The brisket just melts in your mouth. Service was great, everyone there was friendly.

    First time having your food yesterday and I got the pulled pork with cornbread and coleslaw as my sides. Absolutely LOVED the pulled pork, the bbq sauce and the cornbread! Not a fan of your coleslaw, unfortunately. It was very bland and was missing that tangy taste although it was nice and creamy. Just finished my leftovers and it was just as good the 2nd day. I'll be ordering again!

    Excellent grilled chicken breast sandwich with grilled onions, cheddar cheese and lettuce, ample size. Corn bread was also delicious. Service and attention to detail by owner operators is very apparent. This place offers great value.

  • 5/5 Ian H. 3 years ago on Google
    Absolutely delicious. The brisket was cooked to perfection, but the pulled pork was somehow even better. The cashier, who I assume was also the owner, was incredibly helpful and friendly. I’ll definitely be back for more, and soon!

    Why do I love this place? Hhmmm thats like asking why I like air? The food is AMAZING - he staff is so helpful fast and cool - oh did I mention the brisket tacos and the pulled pork mac n cheese - didn't thats odd? What about the cornbread and cookies as big as your hand - no? Odd. Well yeah go - and go often.

  • 5/5 Pamela H. 3 years ago on Google
    Good spot for delicious BBQ. Everyone at our table was enjoying everything. It has a cool interior.

  • 5/5 Jacob B. 4 years ago on Google
    Great little barbecue spot tucked away under the stairs on the Euclid side of the beautiful Hyatt Arcades. Their pulled pork is the best in Cleveland, practically a staple of my diet at this point. Highly recommended to anyone looking for great BBQ at an affordable price during their lunch.

  • 5/5 Kyle W. 3 years ago on Google
    The brisket sandwich was awesome. Didn't even know this place was there. Will definitely be back.

  • 5/5 Jose A. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow wow wow. I got take-out today and the food was SPECTACULAR. We got a pulled pork taco and wings that were great, but The CLE was out of this world! Make sure you put a little of their BBQ or hot sauce on there too. I'm definitely going back. Often. Edit: moving this review from one of my accounts to another and adding that we've been back since - just as delicious the second time!

  • 5/5 Nina “Ni,ni” A. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was so good! The angus brisket was perfect and the bun complimented very well. I also got the fries with bacon and cheese and I feel as though it’s very hard to mess up those kind of fries but they knocked out of the park. Service was fast and the workers were extremely friendly. Great all around!

  • 5/5 Erica L. 3 years ago on Google
    One of my preferred spots for bbq. entered near ten, it was not crowded. i'll return with my relatives. prices that won't shock you. feels like a place in los angeles i loved.

  • 5/5 Andrew K. 4 years ago on Google
    Best barbeque in CLE and plenty of it

  • 5/5 Russell 1 year ago on Google
    First the Cons: can be busy. Now the Pros: great food, good variety and fair prices. At the time of this review aprox. $10 for sandwich $14 for sandwich and two sides. My favorite is the CLE with side of slaw and rings. Filling but not too much as to feel tired for afternoon work. The breakfast is great as well. If the owner is reading this would love to see a variation on the S.O.S as a breakfast option.

  • 5/5 Esther G. 3 years ago on Google
    I never had the most tender meat in a shoulder sandwich (pull pork) ever. Definitely going back. And don't forget the Mac n cheese... love it. Recommend, absolutely!

  • 5/5 Stacy J. 1 year ago on Google
    The best smoked meat this side of the Mississippi!!! Never been on the other side if that says anything. Have been from Cleveland to Tampa Bay and never ate any better food. Great people and service. Too bad wasn't voted best Restaurant in Cleveland other than 2017 and 2018. All I can say is, if you are in Cleveland stop at "Boney Fingers" and try some of the best food you'll ever eat and some of the best people you'll ever meet. Thank You Eric and the Gang!!! We will be back!!! Independent We Stand!!!

    Everything at Boney Fingers is always outstanding. Leading with an incredible, polite staff, who are more than helpful in guiding you through any questions you may have. I have never once had food here I was not absolutely delighted by. While their brisket and fries are certainly my go-to, I am always impressed by their breakfast options as well. Great spot for the downtown resident or worker for breakfast or lunch! Oh, and don’t miss the mustard based BBQ sauce they make in house. They offer several styles of BBQ sauce, but that one is surely my favourite. Thanks, Boney Fingers! You guys rock!

  • 5/5 Jake M. 4 years ago on Google
    Very creative menu. We had a starter of braised octopus with pickled strawberries and some chilled cauliflower soup, followed by entrees of the date-walnut filled ravioli with short ribs, agnolotti arrabbiata, and a creamy fettuccine with poached egg on top.

    The crew at Boney Fingers are so sweet and more importantly their food is very good. The brisket tacos are very , very good and their Cajun fries are so good.

  • 5/5 Aaron D. 4 years ago on Google
    From start to finish I knew I was going to give this place 5 stars. We went on a beautiful summer night around 7 pm on Tuesday. The place was busy, but we got seated outside right away. I wish I would've gotten our servers name. She was attentive, kind, and fantastic. We came hungry so we ordered quite a bit!

  • 5/5 Salvatore C. 4 years ago on Google
    Great pit BBQ brisket! Eaten here several times now and it's becoming one of my favorites.

  • 5/5 Ryan H. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Kai J. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing food!

  • 5/5 T D. 4 years ago on Google
    Great hidden gem in downtown Cleveland. Tucked away on the ground level of the arcade, tiny spot with fantastic bbq. While majority of food spots downtown are chains, take some time to find yourself here for breakfast or lunch for authentic, great quality bbq. The pulled chicken sandwich is great, make sure you grab a side of the homemade smoked mustard sauce as it's the perfect addition to the flavor of food. It's becoming more popular, there's always a line which is a great sign, you won't regret stopping by!

  • 5/5 John M. 4 years ago on Google
    Great choice for having Breakfast and Brunch, Barbeque items. There are various spicy snack items. Some of the popular items are Pulled Pork, Boney Boy, Polish Boy, Wrap, Omelet, boney Breakfast. Their food costs are also reasonable as budget.
