Nestled on Mayfield Road in Lyndhurst, Ohio, Abo’s Grill is the kind of place where each dish feels like it was cooked in Nonna’s kitchen — hearty, honest, and full of flavor. The restaurant’s story begins when owner Joe Abounader (alongside his family) secured a vacant lot and built Abo’s from the ground up, intentionally crafting a space with late-night visitors in mind. 
The setting is inviting: a large three-sided bar, a dedicated take-out entrance for quick pickups, and a back patio for warmer days.  But what truly defines Abo’s is the food — rooted in southern Italian tradition (think Campobasso-style homemade sauce, meatballs made from a trio of beef, veal and pork, and lasagna with layers of beef and pork).
Highlights worth savoring:
• The homemade sauce, built off fresh tomatoes, bursts with that immediate bright tomato flavor you expect when things are made from scratch.
• Meatballs with beef, veal and pork — moist, seasoned, and served with shaved Parmesan.
• The lasagna? Gooey, cheesy, meaty, wonderfully over-the-top in size and texture — tender inside, lightly crusty on top.
• Arancini balls: house-breaded, crisp outside, molten rice/cheese inside, topped with a balsamic drizzle — irresistible.
• Cannolis: from crisp shells to creamy filling, they finish the meal on a sweet and authentic note.
• Gluten-free diners take note: the pasta consistency here is surprisingly on point.
Every visit feels like a celebration of food, family and tradition. Whether you’re dining in or ordering for catering (yes, they cater too) this is a place that shows culinary care at every turn.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Abo’s Grill in Lyndhurst — authentic, delicious, and worthy of becoming your new favorite Italian spot in Cleveland’s east-side suburbs.

So the Mrs and I decided to go for Valentines Day. We searched a few places and Abo’s was one on our list of places in the area we wanted to try.
We were greeted by the staff, which we later learned are family, all super friendly. The atmosphere was quiet and allowed for intimate conversation.
We ordered a smorgasbord of appetizers. Meatballs, this homemade ricotta dip with a balsamic reduction, and another dish (will update once I go back and see it again on the menu). For our main dish we split a Gnocchi that was based in a thin creamy pesto. For desert, we order fried dough and cheese cake. Everything was rich in flavor. We were honestly amazed!
We plan on returning and trying more on the menu! If you like local, authentic, family owned then this is the spot for you. It is family friendly and is a great place for you and the Mrs to have a flavorful dinner.

Tried Abo’s Grill for the first time (take out) and… whew. Let me just say my taste buds are still waiting for the flavor to show up like it’s stuck in traffic.
I got a large pepperoni pizza and the breaded cheese wedges. The cheese wedges tasted like air wearing a breadcrumb coat. The marinara was so subtle I had to double-check if it was actually sauce or just red-colored water.
Then the pizza… dry. Dry like “I need a cup of water just to swallow this bite” dry. For $30, I expected at least a hint of flavor, maybe even a spark of joy. Instead I got sadness in a circle.
Honestly, I can go to plenty of other pizza spots and get actual taste for the same price.
Abo’s Grill, I wanted to love you — but my dinner said “nope.”

I was so excited about the seafood pasta and it was incredibly lackluster. The clams were dry, there was barely any flavor, the portion size was negligible…all for $30. Pretty disappointing. The service was fine for carryout, and I can’t comment on the atmosphere since the takeout area is separate from the restaurant.

The best pizza in this area!! We tried many pizzas in different restaurants but my boyfriend and I agreed that Abo’s pizza was the best. Their crust/dough was so good and had an excellent flavor. It was relatively thin but could hold the toppings. We had one of their specialty pizzas, Mediterranean, together with a Caesar salad. Large pizza was more than enough to share for two people. Service was good, prices were reasonable but we thought $10 for a piece of cheese cake was a bit steep. Anyways, we will go back there for sure.
Update:
We went back & ordered Calamari, Margarita Pizza (BEST) , Linguine with Calamari, & Gnocchi. Ordering a bottle of wine for three of us worked perfectly
2025 Update:
We wanted a pizza so went back again. Pizza was great as usual. We ordered a large pizza but only left two pieces to take back home. The owner gave us interesting way to eat pizza with egg. We also ordered Salmon Spinach salad. The flavor was great but portion was small for the price. At least, please add more spinach.

Abo’s is the perfect home away from. The environment is so welcoming and the food is to die for. From the pasta dishes to my favorite, lemon balsamic ricotta appetizer, all of it well worth a visit!

So I’m a little conflicted with this one. We went Tuesday evening for my nieces birthday. Our waiter was kind and attentive. The music was great as well. My nephew accidentally knocked over a cup and they quickly cleaned it up and let us know it was okay.
I ordered eggplant parm and the salmon dish. Both meals were essentially good (I finished both), but for those who need to know, the eggplant was a bit on the thin side. So much so that when I cut it to get a forkfull I couldn’t distinguish between the breading and the eggplant. However, the breading was crispy enough to be enjoyable and the pasta was tasty 7/10.
The salmon dish was delicious it was a nice sized piece of salmon, but the mash could have looked better (looked dry and lumpy) but it tasted really good. It came with maybe 6 pieces of carrots that were not yet al dente nor were they seasoned, but alas I finished and was happy. Another 7/10
There is alot of positive and we actually planned to come back in the future. However, my sister and law and brother ordered pizza, chicken Alfredo, burger, salad and chicken wings. They enjoyed everything, but the chicken wings. During the service the manager was told that the chicken has a funny smell. He assured her they just got fresh chicken yesterday. She reiterated that she was not comfortable eating it and didn’t want a replacement as she was off put and wasn’t feeling well. Again she ate one wing if that.
At the end of the service the manager refused to take off $11 wings because it went against their policy. I’ve read several reviews from this establishment that echoed the same experience. I understand thinking people are trying to cheat you, but this was not the case and we had purchased more than $200 worth of food. Eventually, after legit 5 minutes of back and fourth, the owner took the cake charge off to appease us. So as prior business owners ourselves it didn’t make sense to put the customer through the back and forth to begin with. So I hate to say it I don’t think we will be back.
So overall 3 stars because it is a nice place and they seemed like nice people, but beware if you are particular about your good.

Abo’s Grill has been our family’s go-to Italian spot for years. It’s one of those places you throw out when deciding where to go and everyone, including the young kids, is instantly on board. The food has a homemade feel across the menu, with quality and uniqueness that’s pleasantly surprising and hard to find. The arancini and meatballs are great and their pizza is hands down my favorite in town.
It’s family run and it shows. The service is great, and the owner always makes a point to stop by the table, say hello, and even bring the kids pizzelles. We miss living nearby but we always stop in when we’re in the area (and find excuses to be in the area).

Went here Mother’s Day Eve in 2024 with my girlfriend. Everything overall was just OK. We shared the Provologne Wedges and they were OK. It came with 3 of them. She got the Nonna’s Lasagna and thought it was ok – not worth what we paid for it. I got the Alfredo with shrimp and had the same experience – not worth what I paid for it. Even more odd, the shrimp added to my Alfredo came with the tails on! Who does that? The sauce was very runny and had an odd flavor to it. I consider myself sort of an Alfredo snob and this version was nowhere near the best. I think Olive Garden’s Alfredo tastes better. Overall, the place and food is just OK.
