Topping the list is Guthrie's Chicken Fingers. Located at 3465 Steelyard Drive in Tremont, the fast food spot is the highest-rated low-priced chicken wing spot in Cleveland, boasting four stars out of 80 reviews on Yelp.

Yelper Jenn G., who reviewed Guthrie's Chicken Fingers on Aug. 24, wrote, "So tasty! The chicken finger bucket with sauces and sides is where we roll. It's large, delicious and filling."

Yelper Laura Y. wrote, "The food was great! The chicken tenders were delicious, not too salty with a perfectly crisp coating. The crinkle cut french fries were crispy and not wimpy at all, and the Guthrie's sauce was the perfect accompaniment to my meal."
