“Went here last night around 9:30p and ordered 5 vanilla cones. There was one young man (he said his name is Emory - he has a ponytail) working the order window AND he was rushing back and forth to fulfill the cone order. This guy can HUSTLE!! Really pleased to see him busting out a busy night and with a great attitude. I told him he needs a raise and he said to let his boss (Deserae) know; so Deserae, please get this man a promotion/raise!“
“Nice interior decor, especially if you're into cars. It's like eating inside of a Ford Museum. The kids and I favorite part were the moving car parts moving among the ceiling. Cool place for kids and groups.As far as food was concerned, it was a good 7/10. Good burger & fries, cool drinks, nice service. Your ordinary delicious burger. "Nothing really jumped off the plate for me, but then again, if it did, would it be a good thing ?"“
“If you are a diner person, this WWII-era establishment is a great breakfast spot. The hot chocolate is out of this world, and the usual diner standbys are all on the menu.This is a Hyde Park institution, with regular customers. This morning when I was there, the waitress got a gift from a regular customer— an outfit for the baby the server is expecting. It’s that kind of neighborhood place, which warms my heart.“
“Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Seated right away. Server was friendly and professional. Manager was engaged and helpful with egg allergy questions via email beforehand. Hot beer cheese, house truffle chips, Krueger's burger without special sauce or dijonnaise (egg allergy), and Rocky Marciano were all excellent. Rare delicious brioche bun with no eggs! Overall great experience and highly recommended. We'll be back!Dietary restrictions: Egg allergy - no eggs in the brioche bun, beer cheese, pretzels, or house truffle chips“
“The poutine is amazing! Fresh cut fries, cheese curds and homemade beef gravy it's some of the best you'll find in the city. Their Cincy style chili is really good to it's real meaty and kinda spicy! This is a very good neighborhood restaurant and worth the drive if you're within 30 minutes. Oh, their burgers are legendary.“
“I meet my sister on many Sundays at the Ft. Wright Kyle’s Ln. for breakfast. We usually seek out LaTosha. She is so efficient and friendly. We just enjoy seeing her and she sees us coming and asks as she seating us if it’s our usual drinks. My sister is going through some health issues and LaTosha always asks about how she’s doing.Even when it’s full, the wait is generally reasonable. Prices have gone up and we’re both on a fixed income. So this has decreased the frequency of our visits.The place is decorated nicely - homey and warm. There is another Frisch’s nearby that was redecorated and is rather austere, and chilly - both in ambiance and actual temperature. We’ve quit going there even though it’s better in-between site.“
“I looked up restaurants in the Cincinnati area that use tallow and Heyday is the only place. My kids and I ate there today were amazed by the service. The food was excellent with bursting flavors in the fries burger and tots. Thank you for a great experience with my family.“
“Absolutely fantastic food, service, and atmosphere. Modern diner vibe with mouthwatering burgers, delicious boozy milkshakes, and the best, most tender, juciest fried chicken I've ever had.Parking: You can usually find street parking nearby“
“Not much to say. Just burger perfection. Nothing fancy about any of it. Its a dive in the best sense of the word. Just meat, cheese, soft bun, onion and pickle (I add little ketchup and mustard on bottom). Thats it!!! Nothing else needed. I will make the 40 min drive again for sure.“
“Gordos in the hole in the wall burger spot that you didn't know you needed. With thick, unique, and tasty burgers. Thick cut fries come standard. There are so many great burger combos to try, but you need to try either the GFat or the simple PBJ. Across their menu you'll find other sneaky good options like the tacos or the pear salad, but the burgers are the core of why you seek out Gordos. Service can be a little slow, especially when it gets busy, but you can often find this place to be fairly open unless it's a Xavier game day. Helpful to know: Park to the left side of the building in the odd looking lot. The right side of the building parking is owned by a different building/business. On nice days, see if you can sit in the back patio. It's a little oasis from the noisy of Norwoods main drag.“
“Chef Salazar has successfully created a tasty brunch nook in Findley Market. Come for the food, not the atmosphere. The Monte Cristo made on delectable French toast, not too sweet with just the right amount of jam. The Carlos (formerly goetta hash) with goetta was savory with just a hint of smoky yum. Both the blueberry and chocolate chip pancakes were also delicious. We added a side of bacon-crispy and charred on the edges! The breakfast sandwich, not pictured could do better on presentation but the taste recovered the blah plating. The Espresso Martini was the perfect drink to round out our sweet and savory abundant breakfast. The bill was under $90 with tip, for 4 of us with shared dishes of bacon and the Carlos. The restaurant itself is a little boring, the coo-coo clock wall lacks creativity, the chairs & tables are reminiscent of grandmas kitchen, slightly uncomfortable and no place for a purse. But the fact it is on the corner of Findley Market and the food is great makes up for the lack of creative atmosphere. Hopefully they splash some paint on the walls or work up the decor to deepen the homey and comfortable feel they are attempting.“
“First time here. Nice little neighborhood spot, busy crowd in a weekday lunch. Fast and friendly service. Ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The fries weren’t anything special, just your regular bagged frozen fries. Cheeseburger was good!“
“My family was visiting Newport Aquarium and after we left we found Mad Mike’s to eat. We ordered 2 of the Big Tex burgers and chicken tenders. These were the best burgers we have ever had and my son loved the chicken tenders. The service was great and the employee we encountered was amazing.“
“I don’t have any pics to share because it was gone before I remembered. I had the steak tips and veggies (zucchini and mushrooms). Perfect dinner for this diabetic. So tasty. My children ordered Mac without the steak. They weren’t too fond of it and agreed it likely would have been better with the steak. I hope you all come back to Enon!“
“It's hard not to like Anchor grill. It's as "local greasy spoon" as it gets, but it has a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Sort of if your Mom and a couple of her friends opened a diner, and you stopped in for dinner. The staff are friendly and polite, and the food is surprisingly solid. If I'm in the Midwest, I have to satisfy my breaded, fried pork tenderloin sandwich craving. Theirs is thin but decent, and you can't beat the price. Cash only. Give it a try. The pancakes look great. If you're not a local, be aware many restaurants here allow you to smoke inside, and this is one of them.“
“Perfection!Garth Burger, loaded, cup of chili, loaded, french fries, and a large Coke. It's been my order, my whole life and I love nothing more than that meal.Nostalgia has a lot to do with my review. lLile a lot of Cincinnatians who grow up in Hyde Park I have been going to this restaurant for over 45+ years.My happy place!“
“They boast they have thr best burger in town and ya know what he'll yah they do !!, and if your a vegetarian thier veggie burger is awesome!! Like freaking 10/10 and the prices are great the sides/ appetizers are delicious if I could do 10 stars I would do 11“
“We stopped in today for lunch/dinner and it was our first time eating here. I got the fried chicken sandwich, my sister got a burger and my boyfriend got the nachos with smoked chicken. The chicken sandwich was one of the best chicken sandwiches that I have ever had and I haven’t had many of those and the fries were delicious. My sister said the same thing about her burger and my boyfriend really liked the nachos. The server was very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was nice, laid back and relaxed and the prices weren’t that bad. I will definitely be going back and I recommend to anyone who is reading this review who hasn’t been there yet.“
“This is one of the very best restaurants in Ft Thomas. The food is amazing and the people are the best. Everyone there not only makes you so comfortable and the food so great , they make you feel like you have been best friends forever. I will be coming there more often .My name is Debi and I absolutely love the “ Tickle Pickle. Love the staff so much!“
“The owner is so kind and quick with service! My go-to spot for halal food in OTR, everything is fresh and delicious. There have been a couple of occasions where I walked up and there was no one in the building (despite being "open" according to the hours on the window) but I can tell it's not something that happens frequently ?“
“The food was amazing! Super tasty, all of the menu items had very creative names. We had the meatallica burger with geotta added on (most of the menu has either geotta or grippos you can add on and its delicious!) The oreo speedwagon shake was also delicious. All in all a must have if you're in Northside and want something quick and tasty for lunch (: the patio area was very nice and not so cramped in the dining area. Although the tables inside the restaurant are very cool and have a lot of neat little things in the tabletops to look at. Awesome food, staff is very nice, atmosphere is very cool. Will definitely eat here again (:Kid-friendliness: Very family friendly, there is a whole kids menu that has some interesting names such as the Fleetwood mac n cheese meal. Definitely one to check out with the whole family (:“
“Some of the best onion rings I have ever had. I had the Provençal burger and it was delicious. We were traveling in a group of 20; a chaperoned trip for my daughter's school. They took us with no reservation and seated us all together on the patio. Took us a little over an hour to get in and out. Service was awesome and the food was tasty. If you're in the area and looking for a reasonably priced burger joint - because there are plenty in the area that aren't - give BRU a shot. Trendy and uptown vibe to it.“
“Transports you to an authentic English Pub.Love the wee fish and chips. Haven't had a bad meal there.Parking: We went on a Monday @5p, plenty of parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap packing in front of restaurant. No automatic doors“
“The Filson is amazing the atmosphere is Great Our server was great very interactive and made sure we enjoyed everything. Now the food was great there Grippo wings will keep me coming back. The uber pretzel with the hot cheese sauce was ? I could drink that sauce ?. All around great experience!!!“
“The burger madness deal and the loaded fries here are simply phenomenal! I like to add barbecue sauce to my burger and dip my fries in ranch and both are just so good. Oh and the Hurricane Arthur is beautiful but also So delicious! When able I like to sit near the window to watch the world go by while eating and all in all its just a nice place to go. We're there fairly often as proof that I mean it hehe“
“Really enjoyed the entire experience. Parking was free and near the business. Tweedy's is very close to the main entrance. Place was busy, but not packed, we were able to secure a table near Tweedy's. Both cheese burger and chicken sandwich was good and big. My only gripe is being charged $2 for a can of mountain dew. The Korean chicken place has 20oz cokes for $2.50“
“This is my favorite Dairy Queen location! On summer nights there is usually a line at the drive through, but it moves at a decent pace. Everyone that works there has always been very friendly. The best part about this location is they give a generous amount of toppings in their Blizzards. The summer special, peanut butter puppy chow, was my absolute favorite this summer.“
“Happy St. Paddy's Day! Less insane the Hap's Irish Pub, but still a great place to toast our ancestors and the Emerald Isle. Apologies for the fish and chips, but they were a must for my husband! We did have an Irish mule and a Jamison.“
“Quaint little spot I'm Obyonville. Best chicken tenders ever. They're beer battered and fried and they are out of this world.Parking: Paid parking lot is 3.00 per hour but there's always plenty of room. Street parking available but high in demand.“
“My favorite local restaurant! The burger special is my favorite weekend bite to eat. The fry seasoning is insanely good on their crispy shoestring fries. And when I took my mom, she raved about the cucumber sandwich. Staff is always friendly when my boyfriend and I go. I’ve dined in and had delivered and I’ve been satisfied with both, but definitely prefer sitting in the restaurant as I love the atmosphere.“
“Anyone passing through NKY with time to spare has to try the dari bar in the summer!! Super cute small business that is still cash-only. The workers are always so nice to customers, and the ice cream is too good to pass up. Ever had kings island blue ice cream? It's here!!“
“Food and drinks were super tasty. We had Brian as our server and loved our time there! He suggested that we sit downstairs which was completely open for us. Brian offered information about specials and their best drinks. Definitely ask for him if you stop! The atmosphere of the place was great for a night out with friends.“
“EDIT 2/23/24:Just wanted to give a shout out to 50 West for outstanding customer service! They followed up with me very quickly regarding a less than stunning meal and not only offered a refund but also seemed to take my suggestions into account when preparing their Ohio Burger. Changing my review because of their great response and because I genuinely have enjoyed their other offerings in the past. Will definitely be back sooner than planned.We went there yesterday, and unfortunately is was one of the worst experiences we've had. I've enjoyed the other burgers in the past, but the Ohio burgers we ordered for Cincinnati Chili Week had so much of the whole grain mustard (double slathered on both buns) on them that it was literally inedible. My nephew took one bite and couldn't finish it because "it lasts like floor cleaner". I thought he was being hyperbolic until I also tasted it... I did order him a new one without mustard and got a packet of heinz yellow instead. I only replaced his because I couldn't afford to purchase 2 more at cost. All in all, for 3 people we spent over 50 bucks and unfortunately 2 of the Ohio burgers went in the trash. The service was nice though and always enjoy the beers. But I will never order the Ohio burger again and it will be awhile before we are back.“
“Do not pass up the hashbrown balls! This little piece of Cincinnati history is a wonderful place to enjoy your mornings and early afternoons. Even though the place is full of regulars you'll feel so incredibly welcome as a first timer.“
“First time at Turf Club! We had a party of 6 and were seated instantly on a Friday evening. The dining room consists of the bar, some booths, and tables in the middle using bar stools. The staff were super friendly, and the ambiance was inviting. Definitely some the best chili and one of the best burgers I'll probably ever have. Top notch quality all around! Shoutout to Sarah for being such a great server and for giving great recommendations. If you want to really experience it all and get some cocktails, expect to spend $100+. 100% worth it, we will for sure be back!!“
“If you've been, you know it's the best. Sheila, cold beer, awesome wings, soup, and burgers. What more do you need? Prices are very reasonable. (If you're scrolling and see the one star left by Jon, maybe you'll get a laugh like I did. He said deceitful pricing since the online menu said wings $1.50. Math genius said they are really $2.25 each because he was charged $9 for 6 wings. ) This is a neighborhood bar and grill. It's cozy. There are regulars, but the owners and staff treat everyone like family. Trust me on this. I drive up from Georgia every few months and Sheila always greets me and remembers what I ordered 3-6 months prior.“
“The fat Al was really good. The chicken was honestly better than the burger, but together it was fantastic. Added a lot of salt. Has a tangy sauce on it and they toast the bun (looks burned but it still tasted great). Fries were a tad papery - may have been because I went at an odd time. Still really good. It's in the food kitchen and there are tables around the building to eat at, but I would try to take it outside. If you are eating solo it will be too much to get a meal and try any other places though. I did go at an off time but they made all the food fresh right in front of me. Took some time but was worth it. Too expensive for me to be a regular but I'm glad I tried it once!“
“Favorite burgers in Western Hills! The Nation and Memphis are my favorites and their tots are really good as well. Their BIT sandwiches rotate and are also really good as well (the current one is a fish sandwich that's delicious). We've also been there for brunch a few times and everything we've tried has been very good. I also really like that there's a pickup window.Vegetarian options: Black Bean BurgerKid-friendliness: My kid loves the burger and mini corn dogs.“
“Breakfast bar was delicious, hot, well stocked and maintained. Our server Keith deserves more than just five stars! From the moment we walked in, his warm smile and impeccable service made our dining experience exceptional. He was attentive and friendly. We'll definitely be back, thanks to his outstanding service!“
“Ah, fellow space traveler, gather 'round! Let me regale you with a tale of gastronomic exploration at Swenson's Drive-In on Madison Rd in Cincinnati. Picture this: I parked my starship (okay, It was a F-150, but let's keep the cosmic vibe) and activated my warp lights. The menu materialized before me, not on a screen, mind you, but through sheer telepathy. Yes, this is a drive-in, not a mere drive-through. No faceless boards here - just a parking spot and a hunger that could rival a black hole.The server sprinted over, like a caffeinated Tribble chasing a warp-speed mouse. I ordered a double cheeseburger with fried mushrooms, and the server nodded as if saying, "Ah, the classic warp fuel." But then, my friend's request: a grilled chicken sandwich and potato puffs. Alas, the app had no fried chicken sandwiches listed! I leaned in, whispered "Captain Kirk would've sorted this out with a photon torpedo,” and the server promised to relay the message to the manager. Bless their dilithium crystals.Now, let's talk, value. Swenson's delivers more bang for your gold-pressed latinum. It's like getting a warp drive upgrade for the price of a replicator synthehol. And the speed? Warp factor 9, my friend! The shakes? Creamier then a Vulcan's logic. The desserts? Sweet enough to make a Klingon smile (which is rare, trust me).So, fellow cosmic wanderer, if you seek sustenance at warp speed, Swenson's is your nebula. Just remember to park, flash your lights, and prepare for a teleportation of flavor. And may the force - wait... wrong franchise! Live long and nom nom!“
“I opted for the paella, a classic Spanish dish, and it exceeded my expectations. The rice was perfectly cooked and infused with savory saffron, while the seafood and meats were tender and flavorful. The dish was beautifully presented and served piping hot, creating a memorable dining experience.“
“Food was awesome our server Melody, by the way Good Luck at UC. Graduation. Was outstanding, polite . This was our 1st. Time , and we will be back. House margaritas were very satisfying. Good luck to El Barrill and our Server Melody, also this restaurant is Pet Friendly.“
“We have been eating ZOLA BURGERS for years. Our recent visit was incredible because of Desiree, the bartender. Bartenders on that strip usually lack personality, but Desiree was sweet, knowledgeable, and warm. There are dozens of pubs on the strip with glitter and brass, but we will come back to KY for our Zola burgers...and Desiree.“
“The food is absolutely amazing; but if you're in a hurry you're going to want to check out a different locale.Excellent coffee, the Italian Sub and the sausage and cheese Omelette were simply marvelous. Take your time and enjoy the ambiance of the area, catch up with some friends, and have a wonderful diner-style meal!“
“100% recommend! The I've been several times in the past to where I would highly recommend coming here. If you're looking for good food, great variety of brews, and fun atmosphere to hang with friends or family, this is your place! I'm a huge fan of their buffalo wings, loaded chips, and burgers! I was fortunate enough to be the first customer to have a pepperoni pizza off their new stove! It's good and can't wait to see what other kinds of variations happen with the new set up. The service was fantastic and workers were super accommodating. Look forward to when I go again!“
“I used to really enjoy going to Frisch's. But since I got bought out by this other company the prices of done nothing but go up food quality is gone down the service is horrible I'm getting to the point where we hardly go there at all anymore.“
“I've noticed recently that the bar food like potatoes are over cooked and some things get dried out on the bar. It's the familiarity with the servers for me.Kid-friendliness: My grandson likes to come here for the vegetable soup and fries. I like how they have kid coupons for Valentines day.Wheelchair accessibility: I recently lost my father-in-law. We would always come here bc it was friendly, had handicap parking, and his chair would fit under the table.“
“I've been coming to Salem Gardens since childhood. It's a good neighborhood place to get a bite to eat and spend time with friends. Not fancy, just a placeI've known about forever, wish I still lived nearby.Parking: Good sized parking lot and if that fills up there is on street parking too“
“The vibe during a Bengals game was crazy. Seemed a bit under staffed for it though - had some minor trouble getting service. Great TV angles and we liked our food. Pizza is pretty standard though so I'd go for burgers or other menu items instead.“
“My family and I come here every other Friday as a treat. We absolutely love it. The staff is always very nice and they work extremely hard. They deserve a raise! Our food is always fresh and delicious. Definitely recommend! Thank you lovely folks that work here!“
