“Absolutely love this restaurant! I generally order pick up using their online ordering or over the phone and it has always went smoothly. Never had to wait on an order longer than the estimated prep time, and the staff was always super friendly and efficient with their service! The restaurant is very pretty inside, and i have eaten in twice as well and had a great experience. Definitely go here if you want some amazing mexican food!“

“Very friendly atmosphere, one of the cleanest restaurants we ever visited. (especially asian kitchen). I am terribly sorry that i forgot our waitress name but she had a name with three letters (ending with "oi" i guess). Thanks again for such a lovely experience.“
“Charming old world home with Sicilian brick oven! The team was wonderful and very friendly. I travel frequently and always seek out small brick oven pizza's to try. I am excited to say that this is now my new favorite! The ingredients were fresh and plentiful and the crust is outstanding! It is an easy walk from Newport Aquarium, which means I will be going again and again. The cannoli pie is a great way to finish up the meal and will not disappoint. The owners were there and engaging and so welcoming!“
“Came here with a friend who frequents this place and I'm pretty impressed. We lined up on Easter at opening and they already had a line out the door, even in the light drizzle. The line stayed that way over the next hour that we hung out there. They do sell out of items so it's best to get there as early as you can! I'm more of a sweet tooth when it comes to baked goods, but the everything bagel croissant is a must-have here. The staff heat it before serving, and it's truly the best of both worlds - the butteriness and flakiness of a croissant, with the garlic scallion seasme flavors of an everything bagel. The raspberry almond croissant is also delicious, a good balance of tart and nutty. The salty chocolate chip cookie was also good - large chocolate chunks throughout. The vegan matcha brownie was an adventurous pick; I'm usually iffy about vegan baked goods, and this one had a texture closer to a fudge than to a brownie. I liked the chocolate and mint combo but couldn't get a hint of matcha. Similarly, the raspberry matcha doodle had plenty of raspberry but 0 matcha. Overall, the limited edition matcha flavored items fell flat, but the goods off the regular menu were great and reasonably priced. The space itself is bright, large enough to seat a few small groups, and nice to hang out in. Staff are also helpful and friendly. Check this place out and stick to their bestsellers, and you'll be in carb heaven.“
“Great experience at the Empanada Box today. The food was excellent. Great variety. The employees were incredibly kind. They offered the kids complimentary cookies. 10/10! Our favorite was the Miami and Bordeaux empanadas. The ship and rice was excellent too.“
“Overall pretty neat restaurant! The menu is very limited - 3-4 options per course with 3 courses in total. Would appreciate bigger selection for this place. It’s not “fancy” enough to offer that limited menuAnd the atmosphere was not the best - a bit old/dated, not in a “antique-cool” way. Very simple interiorMeatballs were flavorfulAnd their duck is really goodHow they decided to bring out a ginger beer, after we ordered a ginger ale, because it is “ginger ale was not available, and this is the closest to it” will remain a mystery to me“

“Got the Chocolate Covered Strawberry and yes that’s what it tastes like!My overall favorite part though was the service. Greeting as soon as we walked in. Explanation of the menu! And then when we received our smoothies they all had cute little sayings, mine saying ‘Make it happen’. I hope they’re different every time bc this little touch really made it a home run and different for me.Thanks for making it happen, Better Blends!“
“Atmosphere 9/10Amazing open air cocktail bars with 4 different lounge area and completely different vibes. There is something for everyone. A lot of international elements (signs from all over the world) and cool design elements. Also a nice bar in the middle of the main room.Drinks 8/10Decent signature menu, containing classic cocktails with a “twist”. Espresso Martini tasted great! I missed a nice coaster thoughService 9.5/10Very friendly bartender team. Serving water without asking. And I loved their dog treat dispenser and attention for furry friends. No reservations needed. Prices are good for Cincinnati tooWould recommend to experience this bar during daylight and ideally, when good weather. Suitable for big groups!“
“This place is so much fun. We stopped here since we saw some igloos on the sidewalk and inquired inside. Unfortunately you need to book those in advance so we just grabbed a spot at the bar. The waitress was very helpful in explaining the menu and getting us our flight of drinks very quickly. We also ordered the loaded potato dip and it was delicious! Had to try the "chili" for chili week and it was a delicious bowl of ice cream with rice crispys. Overall 5/5 stars, when we are back in the Cincinnati area we will stop by.“
“Best birria than anywhere. we go here all the time. So good. I love the guti fries. Sunday brunch is always lit. The only reason they don't get 5 stars is because the flavor of the food is not consistent. Some days it's flavorful and some days it's bland. I guess it depends on who's “
“My recent visit to Boba Cha was an absolute delight. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a cozy and inviting atmosphere, perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet moment alone. The menu boasted an impressive selection of boba teas and other refreshing beverages, each bursting with flavor and made with high-quality ingredients.“
“Great food. I love that they have gluten-free bread options and their coffees are amazing too. The staff is always friendly and the homemade pastries are delicious. I also love their mission. Local people helping local people. Great breakfast food and dinner specials. Chef Gigi is the best.“
“Mom ‘n ‘em is truly a gem in Camp Washington. Their avocado toast is a personal favorite and my favorite places to get it in the city. When the weather is nice, they have a wonderful little area to sit outside. They are a little on the pricier side (a coffee and breakfast run me about $22, where as maybe other places I could get coffee and a light breakfast for around $15) but is well worth the quality of the coffee and food. Also a great place to get tined fish, if you’re a fan. Love coming here to catch up with friends or work remotely.Dietary restrictions: Milk alternatives, can alter items if u have allergies. Had a close call with their granola bc it has nuts in it, but they replaced the item with no hesitation and no charge“
“We visited here before a play at the Aronoff, a 2 block walk. Our server was excellent. I had an Old Fashioned and the pastrami special , very good.However the half chicken was a bit dry, and overpriced at $30. The other meals at the table were good, it being Friday lent the menu was a bit “
“Recently rented the upstairs space for my friend's Bridal Shower and it was amazing! Great space, great music, lovely people, very accommodating & helpful... just wonderful overall! In addition to a wonderful venue experience I also have to say the wine was delicious, I highly recommend the Black Sheep Rouge, which is one of the Revel Winery wines. Deep & smooth!“
“I had an amazing experience at Pins recently. The service was excellent, great vibe from the staff, specifically Andy who provided over the top service and some great conversation to top it off. Would highly recommend going to Pins for your next group outing“
“For a place that is clearly listed as a bar it has incredible food. It's a cool neighborhood bar that seems to have plenty of locals I went there with a few friends to try the food and I must say the Pork Schnitzel Sandwich and the Giant Pretzel with Beer Cheese were incredible. If you are looking for a fun hangout with a cool outdoor area and good food it's worth a visit. One note is the place is small so it can get pretty cramped in the small indoor space they have.“
“Doctor's order, cut back on the sweets. Now and again I have to stray away from my diet and have something from "Sugar!" Good cookies,brownies,some cake and more. May need to get a cookie cake for my birthday this year. Better work out. Check out one of, if not the best cookie place in cincy.“
“Honestly, where do I start? The bartenders are patient, kind, and professional. This is the kind of place that can go from slow to packed out in 30 minutes, and the bartenders are never phased. This family owned bar provides great service every single time. Best poured Guinness in Cincinnati easily, beautiful location, and perfect hole in the wall spot! Dare I say best bar in the Cincinnati area? Yes, it is!!!“
“Very cool and fun concept - the prices for their drinks changes depending on how many people are ordering that drink! Although fun, it also means you're perhaps paying more for a tastier drink ;) but in general, all of the prices are reasonable anyways! They had a lot of fun stuff going on when I was there - a lot on their TVs, trivia, and some other games in the back. Drinks were good, and I had a great time!“
“This is my top brewery in the city for the beer and the vibe! Phenomenal German beers with some great twists. The gin is incredible as well (check out all their liquors). In an incredible old building with decor to match. FCC hooligans launch their march every game from this brewery! What else do I need to say!!!!(Except that our bartender Allie was incredible)“
“I've walked past 1215 so many times on the way to somewhere else. We were out and I was craving an espresso martini, so we figured the wine bar and coffee lab was the perfect choice. I was skeptical of ordering their fancy version or a traditional espresso martini because of the mention of chocolate. I'm not a super sweet drink kind of person. I went out on a limb and decided on their fancy version (top model or something like that?) It was sooooo good! Service was fantastic.“
“Pretty nice little spot. They were out of pretty much all the food at the truck by the time we got there at 8pm on Friday night. The bar staff was amazing. The beer was pretty good too. Nice spot to stop along the way if you're going to multiple bars.“
“We had my mom’s 80th birthday dinner and it was simply amazing! Kate was a tremendous host and helped me consider all the details to make the event very special. We had happy hour and charcuterie in the front room and then dinner in the barrel room. What a beautiful and unique setting! All 31 of us were at one, long table and it was just gorgeous. The drinks- especially the WINE - and food were outstanding. We had a GREAT time. I highly recommend Kate and the Skeleton Root winery for your special events and business/corp team events.“
“My favorite bar to visit when I'm in the Cincinnati area. The staff is always friendly, quick to provide you a beverage and they replace it when it is empty! The smoked wings are top tier and when the live music starts this spot is a rocking little place to be!“
“This establishment has been a neighborhood fave for many years. The service and food is top notch, and the ambiance is perfect for families and friends. This is also a super spot for a date. Never be afraid to ask for substitutes in a meal, as they are always happy to meet your needs when able. They have a full bar, a birthday gong if you're celebrating another year older, and wonderful desserts.“
“O'Bryons is the epitome neighborhood bar and restaurant in Newport. Service is courteous, friendly and timely. The bartender is very helpful and knowledgeable of the menu and drinks. Food is above average while being prepared well and fresh. The chicken wrap and chicken wings were tasty. Prices are reasonable for the area. Parking is a bit of a challenge with it all being street parking. Overall a good experience and worth trying out.“
“Best damn pizza in the tristate area. I've never had a bad experience, and I always regret not getting multiple pies at a time. Amazing crust, fresh sauce and not overly greasy like a lot of other places around here. A bit expensive but it's worth it, I promise.“
“The outdoor seating at this location looks amazing. I wish it would have been warm enough to take advantage of it. We sat at the bar and ordered a flight of taproom exclusives. They also have the staple Sam Adam's beers you are used to seeing along with a small food menu. The inside has plenty of seating and the service was great!“
“One of my favorite bars in cincinnati!! Their cocktail menu doesn’t miss!!! Pictured is their spring 2023 menu and I ordered the ‘Table talks’ from it! I was fascinated by all the different ingredients for the drink. I’m a gin drinker so I naturally lean in that direction. I felt like this drink was either going to be a miss or an absolute favorite no one between. IT WAS AMAZING!! And come on the little milk jar glass, obsessed!! I still think about this drink sometimes and hope it makes it back onto the menu soon. If you can’t find a current drink menu, trust me there will be something you like when you go in! If not the bar staff is so nice and are so attentive to make sure you are served a drink you will love “
“LOVE Liberty's! I recently visited twice in the same week due to how great this place is. First on a Saturday night which was busy; all the outdoor tables and the entire bar were full, we luckily were able to grab one of the couches to sit on. This visit I opted for the Non-Alcoholic Wine which was very good and tasted just like real Riesling! My friends all got classic Liberty Mules - some Moscow and some Kentucky - as well as some wine - it is so amazing this place has so many options for everyone! I came back again on a Thursday after work when they had just opened and was able to secure a spot at the bar - this time I opted for the espresso martini and WOW was it delicious! It quickly started to fill up as we were there so we were happy we had our seats secured early. Both of these times I had the same bartender who was so friendly, attentive and helped answer all our questions on the menu. She was super flexible in our ordering and always made sure our water cups were full which was greatly appreciated! Overall this place has the best of everything - atmosphere, drinks and staff - I cannot wait until I am back again!“
“My favorite local ice cream chain! Every location is great, and every flavor is delicious. If it has mix-ins, WOW! They really add them generously. My favorite is the brownies and cream. Their non mix-in flavors have a very decadent richness. Yum!!!“

“Pendleton Parlor is a super cool neighborhood ice cream shop that uniquely offers edible cookie dough scoops along with their ice cream. I tried a Nutella Swirl (Vanilla soft serve + Nutella). It was delicious - thick, rich, creamy. The Universal Studios-esque decor is really neat and worth checking out while your treats are prepared.“
“What a fun vibe! We went there New Years Eve, pretty early in the day so it was empty besides us, but absolutely loved the atmosphere. They have plenty of green space (which is dog-friendly as long as fido doesn't potty), food vendors, various seating spaces, large televisions, curling, other games, photo opportunities, and more. If being outdoor isn't your vibe, they have a covered heated section (where the walls can come down in the summer) as well as in actual in-door bar where we got some delicious gingerbread old fashioneds. I can only imagine how fun this place is when its packed (and warmer). Our service was great - which sound be expected as the only ones there lol but he was nice, friendly, and made a great drink.“
“The food tasted great and our server, Markey, did a terrific job. We were seated in the side room, and a large, noisy group was seated next to us. The room is all hard services, so the acoustics are bad. My guest and I sometimes could not hear each other.“
“Place was empty and we sat in the deck in the back. I had a Blue Moon draft with two samosas that were delicious. My friend had the veggie burger and said it was very good as well. Samosas and beer $12. Food comes out of a trailer in the parking lot and in take-out containers. Still, a perfect light snack to have with your drink. Great deal, good place to hang out with friends. I recommend.“
“I have come to this location about four times now. Every time has been wonderful! They have the best tortilla chips of any Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. They're extremely crispy and delicious. Salsa is also clearly homemade and very tasty. Overall we had a wonderful experience.“
“The strawberry shortcake at Qlicious is a delightful indulgence that perfectly balances sweetness and freshness. Each bite showcases the harmonious marriage of juicy strawberries, fluffy sponge cake, and velvety whipped cream. The strawberries are impeccably ripe, offering a burst of vibrant flavor that complements the lightness of the cake. The portion size is generous, making it ideal for sharing or savoring as a decadent treat all to oneself. Overall, Qlicious's strawberry shortcake is a scrumptious dessert that promises to satisfy even the most discerning sweet tooth.“
“Cincinnati just keeps impressing me with the wide variety of places to enjoy and once again I have found a spot that I will be coming back to regularly. This place is cozy on the inside, the back patio is secluded and intimate, and the bartender is an angel. The draft and wine selection really blew me away! I had a martini and the best old fashioned I have had in Cincy so far. The bartender, pretty sure she is the manager, knows how to make one hell of a good cocktail and is very knowledgeable about her craft. She alone is worth going in there for honestly. They only serve appetizer/finger foods but it is more than most bars up in Mount Adams have to offer and they stick with the international theme well. The flags inside are a little much but they definitely focus on the 'world' part of World Glass Bar. I highly recommend this for a date spot or even for a group of friends looking for a place to play games and enjoy some tasty drinks you can't find elsewhere. Do yourselves a favor and go check this place out!“
“I never have a bad experience coming here. The coffee is one of a kind in cincinnati and the vibe is super chill and relaxing. I love coming here to get the banana nut bread latte while doing some homework in one of the booths! I wish they would add more food/bakery items every time I come on they are almost fully gone but that’s the only downside I still love this place!“
“A gorgeous, tucked away wine bar with a great ambiance! There were lots of friendly faces, a great selection of bottles for sale, and a great menu, with a selection of wines, beers, and cocktails, as well as various accoutrements.If I lived closer, I would for sure become a regular here. I really enjoyed the Giggle Water. Drinks were affordable.This place has serious character; don't overlook it!“
“This was the perfect spot to grab a tasty treat after dinner. My friends and I arrived around 9:30 and they were still pretty busy. The 2 people taking orders were helpful and pleasant. Even suggesting what their favorites were. All 3 people in my group got the same thing. A kinder sized vanilla cone dipped in a cherry shell. It hit the spot and was the perfect amount of ice cream to satisfy a craving. They have a great outdoor space with plenty of seating to hang out and enjoy the night and people watch in Mainstrasse village. Will be coming back soon to try more flavors.“
“Love the new location. If your confused it's called pins now. The roof top was amazing! And I loved their seasonal specials. We didn't have time to play a game of duck bowling but we'll definitely be back. So many hangout locations, it's a great space for 2 or 20.Kid-friendliness: They have kids drink free on Sundays. Not sure if kids can come other days.Wheelchair accessibility: There is an elevator and there are alleys on the main level. I didn't get a look to see how the space at the alleys layout for manoverability“
“We had a private party at Corkopolis to welcome our guests to Cincinnati for our wedding. It was the most perfect spot - and Julia, Dennis and Tabby were so thoughtful and welcoming. Would absolutely recommend stopping here for a glass of wine - or spending an entire evening at Corkopolis!“
“My fiance and I hosted a private event here to celebrate our engagement, and the staff was fantastic. Pete, our server, was incredibly helpful and served all of our 80ish guests for four hours straight. Highly recommend this for private events!“
“Top notch traditional brewed beers. Really love the flavor profiles and quality crafted beers. Big inside at with lots of seating. Outside by a marina and the river is cool. Always good truck and good food. Can packs Togo. Service is friendly and quick, always keeping it full.“
“What can I say other than 5 stars. Every time I'm in town I always stop by Tavern on York. The bartenders (especially Madison) are super friendly and welcoming. The drink prices are responsible and shots are delicious. I always have a good time when I'm here and make it a point to stop in when I'm traveling to Newport.“
“A fantastic joint in the heart of the Queen City. I’ve been to other Condado locations before but none live up to the sheer energy of this one. The tacos were immaculate and the service from Ambriel was attentive, lively, and accommodating. Will definitely be back!!!?“
“Amazing beer.I had an issue with a couple of 15-packs of beer that I purchased… sent a quick email to alert of the issue. Not really seeking anything. Thought I’d get an apology and maybe a small response. They blew me away with care to resolve my issue, explained how it likely happened, apologized and all!Top notch, Braxton. Top notch.“
“This place is genius. Your dogs can run and play with other dogs and you can have a beer and a smash burger. Lee owns the place and he's amazing. He has one rule. Your dogs must be vaccinated and you have to bring a copy of the vaccine record. This is great idea so all the dogs can be safe I will be back to try the food I can't wait“
