La Bodega

I’ve ate here a couple times now and every time I have definitely been satisfied. It’s solid 4 star place and I can’t see why anyone would disagree. A little quiet looking on the outside, it’d probably be hard to find if you didn’t already know it’s on the corner. For some reason, I love the goofy artwork on the walls– I want it all (which I suppose I could do since its for sale). Go look at it even if you don’t eat anything it’ll make your day 100% better. Anyway, solid sandwich shop. I’ve had the southwestern (love) and Italian sub (also great) as well as a massive salad. The portions are great! Big enough to be like: yeah, I can probably get two substantial meals so maybe I won’t eat the whole thing and fell sick later sized. I haven’t really experienced the overly friendliness of the staff that some have mentioned but that doesn’t bother me. With the subs at least, the bread can kind of take over the rest of the ingredients and I end up ripping half of it off. They come with the choice of of regular, bbq, or baked chips but unless there’s SALT AND VINEGAR CHIPS (please I beg of thee) I’d rather have them not be included and save a little $. I do think some of the ingredients (boiled eggs on salad and meats) could be of better quality, especially in the «crunchy» confines of the tremont /​ohio city /​hingetown area, but le bodega is a solid choice and if you like spicy the southwestern sub will probably change your life. I realize this review sounds more negative than I intended, those are just the stopping from 5 star points in my eyes. The sandwiches are great, forget subway and jjs and come here instead!

Great lunch time spot. I work right down the street from the Midtown location so I was delighted to find out about them. They have very friendly staff that always great you with a smile. The menu is extensive, lots of choice to look through so of you are looking to come for the first time be prepared tonbe on sandwich overload! My two favorite sandwiches are the turkey sandwich with cranberry mayo and the smoked salmon on the bagel. Have never tried any of the side that they offer but they look good. Bön Appétit!

La bodega is one of my favorite places to go for a quick lunch!!! However, you have to know what to order when you come here.
Their service is five stars. Accurate, Friendly and fast. That’s all I need!
The salads are five stars. If heaven created salads, they would taste like la bodega’s. I love that they load their salad up with fixings. I typically get #51 or 52. But I’ll talk to you about #52. I’ve never seen a salad with such generous portions of blue cheese, walnuts, cranberries and shredded chicken. The quality of the ingredients is awesome! The lettuce (and accompaniments) is always super fresh.
Their wraps are also amazing. Any kind Chicken salad– you can’t go wrong.
Other sandwiches, like grilled cheese, I have not been very impressed with at all. I’ve also gotten tomato soup which tasted like tomato water with dried herbs. Two stars there.
Moral of the story, you’ll be rewarded for choosing the healthier salad option at this joint! I highly recommend!

I’d lived in Tremont for three month without realizing that La Bodega was right around the corner from my place — & what an omission of knowledge! I work from home, & I’ve been scrounging for lunch every day, when I could’ve been eating every sandwich on the planet.
La Bodeg’a menu is vast, with lots & lots of sandwich options to choose from. I wouldn’t say that any of them are, for the most part, extremely creative or shocking or amazing, but they serve literally any «old standby» you can think of. Whatever your comfort sandwich is, La Bodega serves it, or they can probably make it up for you. I’m a big fan of the #26 without tomato, a tuna melt that I order on wheat bread. Bonus: All sandwiches come with chips.
The service is friendly & fast, & there’s a little bit of indoor seating for those whose living room isn’t 50 steps away, like mine. It’s decorated with local art, & you can browse fliers & papers & other info from local businesses & events while you wait for your food. La Bodega feels like a true neighborhood joint — & I feel lucky to have them in my neighborhood.

I used to live in Tremont and La Bodega was a weekly ritual. They have a huge selection of sandwiches. It is always so hard to choose because they are all amazing. If you’re in the Tremont area this is a must stop!

I thought it was okay. I know it is so overused when you say a restaurant’s staff is friendly but sometimes it’s rare when you actually get a genuine smile and a little friendly small talk. The staff really seems friendly and nice, well the two that I’d encountered. It was about less of an hour of closing time and no one was there so I decided to get my sandwich to go. As I waited, I just wandered off to the back… the actual dining area, to be nosey. The set up is small (to me) and… don’t know how to describe it… off or something.
But anyway, I got my sandwich and headed home. My thoughts when I first pulled it out the bag was «wow, this is heavy» and when I opened it, «dang, this is a big sandwich» lol. Now you can choose the bread you want for the sandwich and I decided on the asiago cheese bread. To me it didn’t really taste like it… more like just regular French bread or something, not asiago cheese. Didn’t really manage to finish it because it was honestly too much… one half is just enough (side note: maybe they should sell half sandwiches).
At the end, it was an okay sandwich, not eager for another visit but worth trying out again… much much later.

My number one lunch place. I will find any excuse to swing by here and pick something up! Not a vegetarian, but my favorites here are the Veggie Pizza sub and Eggplant sub. Because who needs meat when these subs are so good? I also love the location it is in, I usually make a trip here and then browse around the library for a few. Perfect lunch!

We stopped by for a quick lunch, more or less sight unseen. We had three great sandwiches, and got to sit outside among friendly folks. I had the Southwest Sandwich, my friends had the Tuna Salad sandwiches, and all three were terrific.

Went to the Asiatown location today since I live and work right around the corner. The grilled provolone sandwich lunch special is up there in contention for my favorite sandwich ever. Its fantastic.

I ate at the on Superior Ave. I got chefs salad soup drink $ 25.00. Very much over priced for the food. Salad was bland even with horrible blue cuz that had not taste. The onion soup was ok but microwaved. The décor and people were nice that’s why it’s a 2. Other wise. Good wise. 1.

I’ve been to the new one on Superior twice. The sandwiches are huge — enough to share or for two meals — and both that I had there were really good. The salad was also good and large enough to share.
In the last trip I had the tortilla soup — tasty, but thin and not many vegetables or chicken in it.
The building itself is very cute, with big windows and art work.
My only problem with this place is everything is served on throwaway materials — paper, foil, styrofoam — even if you are eating in. I will definitely go back, but I hope that changes.

The menu here is huge, and they have a great vegetarian selection: D I’ve had a few hummus wraps, you can live on one for about a week, they are HUGE. Today I got the #63 Grilled Swiss, Mozzarella, Provolone plain (they usually put tomato, onion, spinach, and mayo) and when I got back to work I noticed it was not plain. I called up expecting to have to go back to pick up a new sandwich, but the girl offered to deliver it right to me. She also gave me an extra bag of chips and a cookie. So great! The #63 is ooey and gooey and just super delicious.
They also have the best balsamic vinaigrette I’ve ever tasted and the most divine homemade croutons!
(PS my review is for the La Bodega on Superior that just opened up not the Tremont location)

I don’t think there’s gonna be much cause for me to ramble on too much in this here review. You see, the thing is La Bodega is a sandwich shop. That’s it. Nothing more nothing less. OK, maybe just a little more. They do offer salads, after all.
I hadn’t been here before but I’d often found myself wondering about it as I’d drive by. Speaking of driving by, they’d really benefit from some kind of outside signage. The place is practically unmarked and unless you look right at the front door you’d have no clue what it was.
The menu is just as I explained earlier — sandwiches and salads — all made fresh while you wait. I don’t recall which day it was on our visit but there wasn’t another soul in the shop, just me, my wife and the two workers. Maybe it was the because it was so close to Thanksgiving. Whatever the case, it was pretty quiet. Back to the menu. La Bodega offers ten different breads and dozens of different sandwich options. You’d be hard pressed not to find something that’d tickle your jimmies.
As for drinks, it’s all about the pre-​packaged variety here. Water, iced teas, pop, the usual suspects. Not too many non-​sweetened options, though. That kinda bummed me out. Now for the sandwiches. I seem to remember they offer little sides of cole slaw and the like, but I could be wrong.
NOTE: All sandwiches come with a bag of chips.
I went with the #22 — Roast beef with Havarti cheese, tomato, red onion and horseradish mayo on multigrain bread. A pretty damn good sandwich, although a bit heavy on the red onion. Nothing a little pickin’ off couldn’t solve. The bread was fresh and so were the ingredients.
My other half enjoyed the #32 — Curry chicken salad wrap. Creamy curry-​spiced chicken salad dotted with raisins and all rolled up snug-​like with some lettuce, tomato, and onion. I thought it could have used a bit more heat, but that’s just me. She dug it.
La Bodega is what it is. A little sandwich shop in Tremont. They probably do most of their business carry-​out judging by the tiny eat-​in space and they support local art because it’s hanging all over the walls inside (and it’s all for sale). The guy at the counter was pretty friendly. I think that’s about it. If you’re looking for a good sandwich and you happen to be wandering around Tremont, La Bodega will hook you up. Next time you want Subway, come here instead.

I want to really like La Bodega. I really do. Sandwiches are awesome ad they have a ton of great sandwiches. I just wish… I don’t know. I wish they had higher quality ingredients. The sandwiches are missing something.
The bacon on the BLT is very thin and never crispy, at least in my experiences. The egg salad is missing something and doesn’t have much flavor. Don’t get me wrong their other sandwiches may be amazing but those are the ones I have ordered.
I go back hoping it was just a fluke and for a quick sandwich I probably will continue to go back. I’ll try other menu items and update accordingly.

This place is sweet! I tried their special sandwich of the day — veggie grilled cheese. It had cheese, spinach, tomatoes, and lots more delicious veggies. The sandwiches are huge so you’ll definitely have some left overs! Can’t wait to try more sandwiches and soups from this place.

Rosemary ciabatta roast beef sandwich is my fav! It’s a cute little shop, for simple and fast service. I was a little nervous when I first tried this place out… in my head I was worried it would be like any ordinary Subway sandwich kind of deal, but actually the flavors were solid. I loved the blend of herbs on the bread and sizable meat portion they used for their sandwich. I also tried their potato and chive soup, which was delicious. The soup wasn’t overly creamy or rich, which was good because I can only take a certain amount of heavy soups like that. The meal was solid and worth the price, so if you are in the neighborhood and want a quick bite this is definitely a good place to stop by and try out.

What’s Not to love about a place that makes sandwiches?!! They have many sandwiches to choose from whether you are a meat or veggie lover.

Fantastic sandwiches. DON’T BE MISLEAD BY THE NAME! A New Yorker visiting Cleveland, I know a bodega as an ethnic deli, and depending on where you are, dodgy. This is the furthest thing from it!
I found this gem on Unilocal.I had the #23 roastbeef, cream cheese, caramelized onions and peppers on bread that blew my mind. Also grabbed the macaroni and cheese cold salad that had blocks of cheese and a sour cream base. You don’t want to miss either of these creations!
The place is quaint set on a corner with outdoor seating, and indoor seating is clean and surrounded with great art pieces. Good selection of drinks and menu had so many amazing selections available. The folks working were very friendly and the whole vibe was very cool. Don’t miss out.

My go to lunch spot when I am at work. I love their salads, especially their Southwestern Salad w/​chicken. The service has always been fast and friendly, usually the same girl working behind the counter.
Their is some seating in the back and I never had an issue finding a spot. My only negative is that it is on the pricy side but most of my sandwiches and salads have been split into 2 meals so when you look at it that way, it’s not a bad price at all.

A cute lil restaurant which a group of us happened upon only because the wait at Lucky’s Café was out of control and because apparently this is the only other place that opens in Tremont before 12PM on a Saturday. Seriously?!
I can speak for everyone in our group by saying that the food was great. My Italian sub in particular was delicious. I would definitely get it again.
I was a bit turned off by the slow service (15 minutes for 3 subs and a salad?!), which I overlooked for the most part while catching up with friends, and I was a bit turned off by the price. $ 9.75 for an Italian sub and a bag of chips? Eek. Maybe I am a bit spoiled by Bari’s (Chicago) $ 6 footlong Italian sub that doubles as two meals, but I still found this to be a bit pricey. I bought for the SO, and two subs, two bags of chips, and two cans of pop came to $ 23+. Yikes.
When in Cleveland!
