Throwback Thursday: America's Classic Sokolowski's University Inn

This Throwback Thursday we’re indulging our taste buds with a look at one of the 2014 JBF America’s Classics Award winners, Sokolowski’s University Inn. As Cleveland’s oldest landmark restaurant, Sokolowski’s is family-run, and spoons out generous portions of “stick to your ribs” Polish-American comfort food to eager diners from across the country. From stuffed cabbage to their renowned Salisbury steak, the hardworking sibling team of Mary, Bernie, and Mike proudly serve customers all the pierogies they can handle. At this American classic you’re guaranteed good company, polka music, and a satisfying food coma. Fortunately, the official James Beard Foundation’s America’s Classics cookbook will be published by Rizzoli in February 2016, so you’ll soon be able to get a taste of Sokolowski’s without hopping on a plane to Ohio. If you’re craving Polish food, Sokolowski’s is the real deal, and with a roster of celebrity patrons including Jimmy Fallon, the president of Poland, and Bill Clinton, you know you’re in good hands.
