Super sandwiches: Melt Bar and Grilled's

Calling Melt Bar and Grilled’s sandwiches “grilled cheese” is misleading. Sure, you can order a basic Kindergartner for $6, but most sound like something a pack of college guys would eat. Consider the beer-battered Westside Monte Cristo: honey ham, turkey, two cheeses and berry preserves. With its holiday-light decor and huge portions, it’s easy to dismiss Melt as an artery-clogging gimmick, but the menu has genuine, heartfelt nods to local heritage. Pierogi-stuffed grilled cheese, anyone? Three locations, with another opening in October 2012. (216) 226-3699; meltbarandgrilled.com
