Is there anything more quintessentially Italian than the meatball? Definitely. But for Little Italy’s annual Meatball Crawl, this tasty sphere is the star of the area’s esteemed cuisine.

The annual Taste in Little Italy Meatball Crawl & Wine Tasting, hosted by Cleveland Montessori School, is a fundraising effort to provide scholarships and other opportunities for the school’s students, while benefiting Little Italy’s small businesses. Each year, hundreds flock to the streets in a Feast-esque fashion to sample the array of restaurants’ craft meatballs.
