Insider's Guide: Four Cleveland Restaurants To Get Takeout From

Angelo's Pizza: The pizzeria serves up memory-making classics, inventive takes or create-your-own pies with a mouthful’s worth of sauce and topping options. If you’re in the mood for a heartier ’za with a southern twist, the Acapulco BBQ pizza is a tangy slice. 13715 Madison Ave., Lakewood, 216-221-0440, angeloslakewood.com

Barroco Arepa Bar: Start out as small as Barroco, and takeout becomes part of your DNA. You’ll definitely want to order an arepa, made by soaking raw hominy corn for two days, cooking it, grinding it into a masa flour, and forming it into square-shaped arepas. We’re partial to the chorizo or braised beef options. Various locations, barrocoarepabar.com

Gourmand's Deli: This breakfast and lunch spot has cultivated a menu of 57 sandwiches from breakfast croissant handhelds to vegetarian offerings. A luau for your taste buds, the Hawaii Five-OH features smoked turkey, crushed Maui Sweet Onion Potato Chips and house-made pineapple chutney. 5345 Canal Road, Valley View, 216-328-0942, gourmandsdeli.com

Li Wah: Li Wah’s signature dim sum — the Cantonese answer to brunch — is available for carryout. Dumplings, sweet buns and meat dishes like black pepper beef short ribs can be enjoyed at home with ease — don’t forget to include a pot of jasmine tea with your meal. 2999 Payne Ave., Cleveland, 216-696-6556, liwahrestaurant.com
