Restaurants near Highland Heights

“My experience at this restaurant was truly delightful! Everything on the menu tasted amazing. The cozy, small restaurant vibe adds to its charm, making it a welcoming place to enjoy a meal. During my visit, I particularly enjoyed their Thai dishes and also tried the sushi, which was fresh and flavorful.However, there was a slight hiccup concerning the sushi service. Around 8:45 PM, I wanted to order more sushi for my daughter, but I was informed that the sushi station was closed for the day. This was surprising as their website mentions a closing time of 9:30 PM. It would be great if the restaurant could ensure that all sections remain open until the stated closing time to avoid any disappointment for diners.Despite this, I am giving this restaurant five stars because of the quality of the food and the overall positive dining experience. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant for anyone who enjoys excellent Thai cuisine and sushi. Just a small note to the management to maybe keep the sushi bar open till closing, ensuring all guests can enjoy what they offer any time during operating hours.”

“We had a large group of 45 people come in and they absolutely nailed it!! The food was great, the service was quick and friendly. We would definitely come back!!!”

“I think Busken Bakery speaks for itself. I came to this Busken Bakery to pick up our holiday Schencken. There are several locations available for pickup. Last year I went to the Busken on Madison. This location has to be the busiest during the holidays. Parking was a challenge. Figuring out where to go for pickup was a challenge. For these reasons I decided to try the Highland Heights location. I'm so glad I did. First, getting there was a breeze! Get your car onto 471 and go until it ends and you're pretty much there. I used GPS to get there, but getting there was so simple, no GPS was needed to get home (we live in Delhi). If you are a once-a-year Busken shopper and Highland Heights is reasonably close, I recommend picking up there. I was in and out in nothing flat.”

“I went here after class and haven’t had them in a while. For starters I walked in and they were playing my favorite song. 10/10 right there and the food was so fresh especially the fries. The fries were so hot and my milkshake was so good. It is expensive for one person so I probably wouldn’t bring a whole family here but it was very hot and worth it as a treat.”

“Best in town by far. Been going for 18 years and have yet to have a bad experience. I've read some of these reviews and they have one little problem and they immediately want it for free. that ain't how the world works. anytime they've messed up i just ask if they can fix it and they do no problem. Great food just a bunch of stuck up people around here.”

“The people I work with only want Servatti donuts. I have two other places I could go. The store smells amazing! The staff are always friendly! The BEST place to purchase donuts in the Cold Springs area!”

“Love this place! I've been coming here since I was a student at NKU in the 80s. Lindsay is a great server and Wednesday night triva night draws me back from Union!”

“This was located near the campus of Northern Kentucky University. Never had Firehouse Sub. I was very pleased with my choices. 1. To eat here and 2. Having the meatball sub. Clean dining hall and bathrooms. Staff was working hard and was very friendly. The sub was delicious. I will definitely eat at another Firehouse Sub.”

“This is my favorite restaurant on campus and one of my favorite pizza places ever. The only reason it's missing a star is because they sometimes take the thin crust to the extreme. And I mean sometimes it's so thin it feels like the pizza is gonna disintegrate when I pick it up. I feel like this has happened more often than not this semester, and today was especially bad. The crust on about 1/3 of my slice was as thin as the cheese.”

“The dining area is kept cleaned, which is a big deal for me. The employees here are very friendly. They check in on you at reasonable intervals. I ordered the spicy Big Boy with no pickles and fries. Everything came out perfectly. For my drink, I had the sweet tea. If I had known that it would come with a ton of ice, I’d ask for light ice. Other than that, everything was great.”

“*On the map, this isn't marked correctly as its in the student union* The staff was extremely friendly and the service was so fast my food was out before I even paid!”

“Great frozen custard! Don't let the location throw you off. If you want something flavorful but don't want Graeters, this is a great alternative. If you don't care for vanilla ice cream, try this one it's literally custard. Lovely, smooth and no greasy aftertaste.”

“Always a good Starbucks. Have had all of one bad drink in probably a hundred visits, and they were absolute sweethearts about fixing it for me. Highly recommend, the people and the drinks here are great.”

“Placed an order for the 30 pak catering bundle for an office event. Online ordering was easy, everything was ready on time, they even helped me carry everything to my car. We got all the sandwiches, two sides, chips AND cookies. Everyone loved the food. My favorite part is that the carry out boxes fold up perfectly to be serving trays!!”

“Hot Donatos pizza is great...including here. Since we live some distance away, we can only have hot Donatos on on-site here. The seating is not good. Also, staff is divided between 2 connected brands. One person is sometimes serving both sides. Not good.”

“I read some reviews before coming and I was not expecting the amazing service that we got! We got seated, got our drinks and food all super quick! Our server was Lisa, very nice and sweet lady! Definitely will be back!”

“It's hard to go wrong at Asiana. The food is consistently fresh & flavorful, the service is friendly & personable, while being efficient, and the prices are reasonable and on par with most other quality Thai restaurants in the region. I have yet to have a bad experience there, and always look forward to my next visit!”

“The best gourmet experience that I ever Had. Deliciouse food, exquisite dishes and very professional service. I highly recommend to visit Alfio's restaurant.”

“I’ve been to mid city about 5 times, it was amazing the first time I went and every time I go it gets better. The staff are amazing people! They have nailed both food & service. When you eat here, they make every guest feel special. Just this week I went to a high end restaurant in Cincinnati and was treated like an inconvenience because I had an infant with me. Then I came to mid city and they were so accommodating of the baby. They knew who we were right when we walked in, they gave us a huge table with plenty of space, kept saying how glad they were we came, it was pouring rain outside so they gave us towels to wipe off, they helped us to our table, even helped carry the car seat. That’s how you run a restaurant. There’s a reason they have a 4.9 star rating on Google, it’s because I don’t think 5 star is possible.”

“Authentic Hawaiian cooking - so delicious! Family owned and run. Excellent and friendly service. Don't pass up the custard pie (Val's mother's recipe)!”

“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!”

“Our favorite restaurant in the area. I'd put their filet mignon up against any steak house. Atmosphere is very laid back but classy. Drinks are unique and excellent.”

“While on spring break from Raleigh, North Carolina, my son and I made it a priority to visit Nolia Kitchen after hearing about it and Chef Jeff Harris' James Beard Semi Finalist. Located in the vibrant Over the Rhine neighborhood, known for its local restaurants and shopping, we planned our early dinner around this exciting hotspot.As we arrived at Nolia around 5pm, we were warmly greeted and promptly seated. The host was both kind and efficient, while our server impressed us with their sweet demeanor and extensive knowledge of the menu. Though we had already perused the menu, our server still took the time to share some additional offerings. With our choices in mind, we placed our orders, which included the following:- Gulf Oysters (6) from both the East and West Coast- Cauliflower- River CatfishTo complement our meal, I indulged in the delightful Goretti Park cocktail.Each dish was served with care and precision. My son particularly enjoyed the East Coast Oysters, while the cauliflower, accompanied by raisins and honey (we asked for it on the side), left a remarkable impression. Personally, my favorite was the catfish, paired with crawfish and grits. The combination of flavors was truly exceptional.During our visit, we were fortunate enough to meet Chef Jeff himself. He graciously shared his vision for the restaurant, adding to the overall amazing experience.Thank you, Chef Jeff Harris and team, for providing us with a memorable dining experience at Nolia Kitchen, worthy of your James Beard recognition.”

“Great food , friendly staff. Wish they had fresh brewed iced tea though. The brisket is full of flavor and the chicken is also mouth watering . The patio is nice to sit outside on.”

“Best donuts in Cincinnati. Maybe the world? The line will be out the door every Saturday but the service is great and the staff is so friendly. Their donuts are the only reason I get out of bed before noon on the weekends. Long live Moe's!”

“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”

“Anthony G. was an amazing server. He always made sure we had everything we needed, was very interested in having conversations. He also helped up very well in understanding the menu and gave excellent advice and recommendations on what to order and how to order it. All together he gave us a great first experience, we will definitely come back due to that experience.”

“I came here for the lobster crab shrimp BLT and I thought I found the love of my life but not this time. I wish the filling of the seafood portion had more texture with pieces of meat. It puts me in mind of tuna salad. It’s a cold sandwich but the filling was ice cold. The French fries could use improvement as well. Overall the food wasn’t nasty but I wouldn’t order or recommend it. Over priced as well for what’s given. The restaurant is beautiful and I will definitely come back to try another dish. I sat at the bar and the young lady who took my order was very pleasant which is why I ate in.”

“I don’t understand the hype. The food is authentic Italian but heavy on the seafood. Extremely expensive for the portions. Atmosphere was cool and chic but not my style. Definitely not a family place. Absolutely a true foodie place for someone who wants to try outside of the box Italian food.”
