What is it about a good deli that’s so irresistible? A delicatessen, if you are wondering, is simply an all-encompassing word for places that prepare food, especially foreign specialties. Here in the U.S., the Jewish deli is particularly popular, combining aspects of grocery stores and restaurants to feed hungry patrons. However, in places like Lakewood, there’s so much more than just sandwich and soup shops. One of the best Mediterranean delis in Greater Cleveland is tucked away in Lakewood… and their hummus is a true treat. Check it out:
Lakewood is a community filled to the brim with hidden gems, and Jana’s is just one of many must-see locations.

While visitors rave about the friendly staff at Jana’s, the mouthwatering delicious food is what keeps them coming back.

While there’s something here for everyone (including burgers, fish fry, and more), the hummus is undeniably the star of the show.
Jana’s Mediterranean Deli/Facebook Hummus, if you’ve never had it, is a dip made of chickpeas, tahini, garlic, and other goodies.

When they say they have a wide variety of hummus flavors, the crew at Jana’s really means it.
Jana’s Mediterranean Deli/Facebook Tumeric, beet, chocolate, hot, garlic, and more are waiting to tempt your taste buds. Enjoy your hummus solo or order a dish, like Philly Steak, served over it. Either way, your taste buds will fall in love at first bite.
