Overview

Step into Cleveland’s Little Italy, a historic neighborhood where every cobblestone and aroma tells a story. This immersive 3.5-hour food and culture tour offers more than just a taste — it’s a journey through generations of Italian-American tradition, resilience, and of course, irresistible cuisine.

This tour includes up to five carefully chosen stops where you’ll experience the tastes and traditions that define Cleveland’s Italian legacy. Stops on the day typically include the following:

Local Italian Market
Start the tour with a warm welcome and a sampling of freshly sliced cheeses and house-cured meats — a staple of Italian snacking culture, sourced directly from local purveyors.

Old-World Trattoria
Step into a cozy, family-run eatery that’s been serving classic Sicilian dishes for over 30 years. From eggplant Parmigiana to handmade meatballs, every bite tastes like Nonna’s kitchen.

Artisanal Pasta Kitchen
Taste modern Italian innovation with a dish from a James Beard-recognized chef. Think silky handmade fettuccine tossed in seasonal sauces or delicate ravioli with bold regional flair.

Brick Oven Pizzeria
Crisp, chewy, and perfectly charred — enjoy a slice of Neapolitan or Roman-style pizza crafted the traditional way, with imported flour and simple, elegant toppings.

Historic Italian Bakery
Finish the tour on a sweet note with a visit to a beloved bakery. Treats may include cannoli filled to order, biscotti, or cassata cake once raved about by Mario Batali himself.
