It's Cleveland so it would be in the 216 area code, but the number is listed as "251-5111-2". Now 251 was a prefix for the West Park neighborhood of Cleveland, which is where this was located. But what's up with the -2 suffix? We are thinking this was a party line number, shared with another establishment... For a long time that number was for a company called Fitness Serve, but now it's registered as a residential landline. As for the address, it doesn't exist anymore. There's now a Burger King at 14902, and 14930 is a check cashing place. But the latter building does look like it could've once been a somewhat modest but inviting Tiki restaurant...
