So apparently, two of my favorite Y-town
staples have collided. The gorgeous and memory-laden Mill Creek Park
and the corned and bagely goodness of
Kravitz's Deli. There have been a couple of different places in
the spot overlooking Lake Glacier in the Davis Education and Visitor
Center next to Fellows Riverside Garden, most of the time when we
were there the space was closed or empty. That is not the case
today. Seats are hard to come by, and people are waiting as the
staff dashes around trying to keep up. |

Sandwiches are Kravtiz’s…all you need to know…if you care what I think you can find it here. There doesn’t seem to be any drop in quality at all. Bright potato salad, flaky sweet kipfel varieties, gotta love it. We did try a couple of new things. Matzoh Ball soup, the broth was screaming out for salt (much awakened with a dose) and lacked a bit on the chicken end but the plop in the middle was fluffy and tender, a well executed nugget.
Steph ordered the spinning bowl salad, which
the menu says, is the same they used to serve at a long gone
Youngstown classic restaurant. It seems to me the spinning salad is
attributed to a steak restaurant in California. You don’t get the
actual spinning bowl tableside but the chopped egg, bleu cheese and
house made croutons are served with a sweet and tangy dressing which
is delicious.

Needed Salt & Chicken Flavor But The Matzoh Was Excellent |
It Doesn't Spin But It Is Delicious |

The sweet cranberries in the rich chicken
salad were excellent. The half Reuben was exactly what you wanted
from Kravitz's. I tried my first Kraut on
Fire…corned beef with hot peppers and pepper jack cheese, a nice
kiss of heat with the usual wonderful suspects. I hope the place is
packed like this all the time. I would like the chance to experience
them together again…and again.
