There's been a lot of construction on East 185th Street, and while major investments are being made to position it as Cleveland's next popular neighborhood, a restaurant at the heart of it all stands as a testament to the street's past, and anchor for its future.

Scotti’s Italian Eatery is where food, reasonable prices and warmth have kept customers coming back for 24 years. “I would like them to feel like they know us and they're comfortable here,” said owner Scott Nathanson. “It's kind of like they're my family. I take care of these people for 20 years. You get to know them, their lives, ups and downs."
