Cordelia

Cordelia folds pressure fried chicken into chef Vinnie Cimino's modern Grandma approach to Midwestern cooking. Cleveland Magazine's opening feature describes the crisp chicken and jojos in detail. The East 4th dining room presents the dish with the restaurant's playful mix of family memory, regional ingredients and polished technique.

Cordelia, on East Fourth Street, treats its burger as a shareable centerpiece. The Burger Box splits two Certified Angus Beef smash patties layered with smoked cheddar, shaved sweet onions, and a house special sauce on a Japanese-style milk bun, finished with everything spice and the kitchen's Nana's Kool-Aid pickles. It reads more composed plate than quick counter burger.
