Carnegie Food Hub: Cleveland Restaurant Guide

“You can order food through a screen and then your food appears in a locker when it’s ready. So it decentralized but it’s very $$ for simple garlic pasta it’s $14. For chicken tacos it was $25!”

“I absolutely loved trying out the Carnegie Food Hub! A special shout-out to you Yelp for allowing me to have the opportunity to try this place as part of the Cleveland Yelp Elite Squad! I opted to try three of the restaurant options so I could determine if this place was worth a return visit for my whole family (spoiler alert, the answer is YES!). This place is cashless and carry out only so keep that in mind when visiting. (Ordering instructions below) This place is so unique and cool. I have passed by it probably 100 times since moving to Cleveland and always wondered what it was. If I were to make one recommendation, it would be to have better signage outside that conveys what this place is because people need to know. I thought it was a place for only doordash drivers and Grubhub drivers due to the signage. According to their website, there were 14 different restaurants to choose to order from today when I went. I was shocked!!! It appears as though there are a total of 18 to choose from but I believe they may have varying hours/days of operation. There is ample parking on the west side of the building. You can either order from the kiosks or make your order online on their website. Once again, this place is completely cashless. After you place your order, you will receive a text message confirming your order and an estimated wait time to receive your food. Once your food is ready, you will receive a text message telling you which locker your food is in. Once you are in front of the lockers on site, you click the link in your text message and the door to your locker pops open! So cool! Today, I ordered my food in the lobby and just sat and waited on the bench for about 15 minutes while my food was being prepared. Next time, I’ll be ordering online to save some time! Here are the restaurants we tried, what we got and what we thought: Little Italia - Mozzarella Cheese Sticks - Yum! These also reheated very nicely in the microwave - Lasagna - good flavor but it was pretty greasy and the lasagna noodles did not seem to be cooked (I feel like they were the noodles that are store bought and don’t have to be boiled before baking…. I could be wrong but I usually use those when I make lasagna at home and sometimes it turns out like that.) - Spicy chicken pasta - my husband had this and really enjoyed it. Large portion size! He did say that to him it wasn’t very spicy. - Chocolate cake - I really enjoyed the chocolate cake. The mousse/icing was my favorite part. Is it the best cake you’ve ever tasted… no. But it was darn good in my opinion. Mexitaco - QUESABIRRIA TACOS - the meat inside the taco was delicious but I did not care for the tortilla or the overall flavor. Blue Habanero still has my favorite Quesabirria tacos here in CleveIand. With that said, I would like to give Mexitaco another try and order something different. Seoul City Wings - Honey Butter Boneless Wings - the wings were a good size and the flavor was enjoyable! - Sweet & Tangy Wings - Also very enjoyable! My only complaint about my experience with Seoul City Wings would be that that the boneless wings lacked sauce and therefore it wasn’t as great as I believe it could have been. I can’t wait to return to Carnegie Food Hub again!”

“It's not a dine spot. Its truly a hub of deliciousness. Biryani Pointe has some ridiculously good paradise chicken. It reminded me of the chicken kashmari that was once served at now gone Cleveland Hts establishment-The beloved Mad Greek. I would come back to the Carnegie Food hub again”
