Discover Akron
Akron is a suburb of Cleveland that takes advantage of this proximity to offer foodies access to some incredible dishes. A typical Akron restaurant is a steakhouse that serves only the best cuts. You can even get the kind of delicious prime rib that you've been craving for years. However, those with an interest in more ethnic foods can get incredible sushi, traditional Mexican, and even Indian food in this metropolis as well. There's nothing quite like chowing down on a gyro in downtown Akron. Akron shares some signature dishes with Cleveland, including corned beef and patty melt sandwiches. These working-class dishes remain popular in this trendy, but casual, urban area.
