The majority of Italian immigrants came to Ohio in the late 19th and early 20th century. As the years passed and the community immigrated into the rest of the community, one thing in the neighborhood has never changed is the food.
The best Italian American cuisine can still be found in the area, in restaurants all within walking distance of each other.
