It’s likely a challenge to find someone who doesn’t like Italian food.

There are thousands of restaurants in the U.S. that offer the cuisine, and trying to find the best one might make the cheese fall off your cracker.

That’s why people who dine at Italian restaurants have taken to TripAdvisor to rate the best ones.

To make finding them easier, Stacker shared a list of the Top 25 Italian restaurants in Cleveland, based on the highest TripAdvisor ratings.

The data journalism hub says:
