“If you’re looking for amazing Italian food, please check out this restaurant. Some of the best Stromboli and calzones I’ve ever had with great service and absolutely deliciously homemade sauces. Ask them to whip up a batch of pink sauce for you. You won’t regret it.”

“Today I traveled from Florida to Cincinnati. My sister and I wanted to get a bite to eat . We didnt want to get fast food that you could get on every corener . While leaving the airport I Googled restaurants close by . There were several to choose from however, we decided on Pig Candy BBQ this restaurant did not disappoint. The food was amazing ( we had the special which was the brisket sandwich) this sandwich was very tender and full of flavor. If you are just traveling through or a local or feel up to a drive this is definitely worth your time .The staff knows what customer service means . All around Great food and service. A MUST STOP....... THANK YOU !!”

“My Goodness! The flavors are amazing!! The oxtails are tender and flavorful. The chicken is completely marinated and moist never dry. The steamed fish with peppers and onions is great with just the right amount of heat. If you want to go to Jamaican just order and be transported in you mind! JUST DELICIOUS!!! The only reason no 5 stars is there is always room for improvement. And I can't wait until theres a more upscale dining experience of Yummi Express!!”

“As the other reviews below, we had a great experience for lunch. The owner is super kind and attentive. The chicken shawarma, hummus and kibbeh were authentic and tasty. Support small businesses like this!”

“This was our first time and the food was excellent. Our server was wonderful providing suggestions and recommendations.”

“A hidden gem on Garfield Place . We decided to throw out the Hyde park restaurants and try something new . The Mezze Board was fantastic with all of the Mediterranean dips and veggies , The Shrimp Cossoult is to die for . The braised lamb /risotta/feta explodes with every bite. The best of all is that it was our first time dining and and I felt like family with the service from Nimo and Bryce , Coming back next week for the Swordfish . 6 stars !!!!!”

“This place is by far the best bakery I've been to. The cookies are out of this world!! I've never gotten something that wasn't up to snuff.

Parking: Smaller lot.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cafe Mediterranean Hyde Park with Heather Raake Bates , and it was truly an exceptional culinary experience. The meal was outstanding, and the service was superb. I highly recommend visiting this establishment, as it is a hidden gem that warrants a return visit.”

“Shareable menu items that are tasty and unique…smelt fries and duck fat fried potatoes. Delicious. Great service and oh yeah - Longfellow charm all the way.”

“The food was amazing and the owner super sweet!”

“Dan the man with the pizza pan, was awesome in every aspect of professionalism. Fucking great attitude and very friendly. Thanks Dan front the guy who painted the building on the corner.”

“Great food and service. This is now our favorite place.”

“I and my husband celebrated his birthday. From Tableau we chose Rillettes smoked fish, sauce piquante with thin sliced bread crackers and Escargots a la Bourguignone with garlic parsley butter and toasted Blue Owen bread. Both were just delicious. As salades we had Parisian Carrot with tosted hazelnuts, parsley and vinaigrette this could have had a little more flavor and Roasted beets with creme fraiche and goat cheece, citrus, pistachio which was perfect. From Plats I had Herbed Cavatelli, braised lamb neck ragout with parsley and pecorino. This was very tasty. My husband chose Poulet Frit a la Moutarde, breaded boneless half chicken with dojon creme fraiche. Chicken was moist and the sauce nice. With our dinner we shared a bottle of Cabernet Franc Dom.La Petit Saint Vincent Saumur which went very nicely with our food. Our server Emily was friendly, not overly profesional.”

“Wonderful place to be! Bit pricey but honestly worth it if you like good food that you can cook to your liking! Great fast customer service as well! But heads up, if you waste food they charge you another 20% to your bill so get what your actually going to eat unless you wanna pay extra to take it home.”

“good food nice area”

“Excellent service and Food. Compliments to the Chef and staff. Had French Pork Chop. Absolutely phenomenal! Fried Green Tomatoes - best I’ve ever had! Martini was also perfect! Very classy place! Highly recommend! Wish there was a location near me!”

“Sotto embodies the feeling of understated luxury. From the wood-fired oven to the homemade pasta, the chef's dedication to every dish is evident. I particularly enjoyed their Italian meatballs and roasted eggplant appetizers, which paired perfectly with a glass of red wine. This place isn't just about dining; it's about enjoying a mini culinary journey. If you're in Cincinnati, be sure to make reservations in advance; otherwise, it's very difficult to get a table.”

“Kelly our server was phenomenal and created an experience to remember. The chefs made the herb crusted steak to perfection and left me craving more!! We will certainly be back.”

“From the moment we made our reservation, we were treated to a hospitality and warmth sorely lacking in today's world. While we went at noon, the music and decor were as relaxing as an evening or even late- night event. Our server Simeon was professional and committed to make our meal a memorable one. At our request, he described different dishes, telling us what he recommended and what to expect. He was attentive without hovering. The food was as outstanding as was the service. While the shrimp toast appetizer, Wong's chicken, and Clay pot were delicious, beautifully prepared, we were overwhelmed by the presentation, taste, and experience of the coconut bread pudding with rum sauce. We will go again soon..”

“Outstanding in every way. Stopped in for a much-needed meal on the high route from Nashville to Philly.. could not have been more impressed with both food and service. One of the best meals I’ve had in a while.. everything was superb.”

“Delicious tacos!!!!!!!!!! Tried them outside Bleachers last night. Will definitely look for your truck.”

“I was in town and Agave & Rye was recommended to me. I stopped in on 9/10/22 talked with Emma the hostess and explained I was having a few friends to stop by not sure how many between five and ten. She accommodated me at the high rise table back by the windows which was perfect for my nine guest. Sarah was our excellent server, she continually checked in on us even thou I saw her working outside as well. Our drinks were awesome and our food was really good. Next time I am in town I will definitely return here.”

“Food and presentation was top notch! Everything was so fresh and perfectly seasoned. Walked away full but not feeling weighed down. Service was fantastic as was the atmosphere. 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 for me!!”

“We went for my birthday to check out the place. Good food and top notch service.”

“We came to El Trumpo last minute with a party of 18 people for a birthday celebration, and they absolutely nailed it. From the moment we walked in, the staff our server was Jenny, everyone was welcoming, organized, and genuinely happy to accommodate our large group without prior notice — not an easy task, but they made it look effortless. The service was fast, friendly, and incredibly attentive. Our server managed to keep everything straight — drinks, appetizers, mains — and checked in regularly without ever making us feel rushed. That alone deserves praise. Now the food: amazing. Everything from the chips and salsa to the sizzling fajitas, tacos, enchiladas, and margaritas was flavorful and fresh. Several people at our table commented that it was the best Mexican food they’ve had in a long time. The portions were generous and the presentation was great, even with such a large group. Bonus points for the festive atmosphere — perfect for a birthday party. They even brought out a birthday dessert and joined in singing, which made the night extra special. Can’t recommend this place enough for both small dinners and big celebrations. Well definitely be returning!”

“This company is TOP NOTCH! The Sweets and Meats trailer catered our wedding and when I tell you people still have not stopped raving about their food, I mean it! From the tasting, to the planning, to the day of, Kristen and their team were so helpful, organized and easy-going throughout! We will 100% be recommending them for other weddings, private events and to just go and grab a bite at their place downtown in Cincinnati! Forever a fan!”

“never had this until the food truck rally in Springfield...probably THE best frozen yogurt I've ever had...would highly recommend”

“Took us in the night before to load...but realized they didn't have the product...but let me stay in the door and sleep overnight loaded me in the morning and let me drop the trailer to go to Alabama Fishbar to eat”

“Try the new PB&J waffle sandwich! It is to die for!!!”

“Stopped by yesterday. Kim and everyone were very helpful. Picked a a favorite that’s served at the Netherland as well as a Gautaman blend. Both are very flavorful and full bodied. Used my Cuisinart pour over machine and a 15:1 ratio. Will definitely be back. Thank you”

“Emily was amazing and excellent service!! 😊”

“I typically don’t go to Dunkin too often because it’s never consistent but this location has 1000% won me over. Drinks are consistory good and the workers are always the friendliest!!”

“Today, 11.02.2021, a friend and l were in search of good breakfast food. Before dropping her off, we stopped at the Waffle House on Delhi Pike. The employees at this establishment were some of the warmest and friendliest group of people l have met since COVID. Fast service, our waiter Dante explained how we were able to mix and match the breakfast we had chosen. With the turn of our head, our meals were before us. The grits were freshly made, the toast was to a perfection with butter melted, everything about the meals were on point. The staff keep the restaurant clean. On their idle time they were cleaning the grill and washing down the floor, no one was standing around on their phones. I give the Waffle House ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”

“Arizona green tea and ginseng one of the best drinks on the market versus pop. Great, healthy alternative I just wish they would cut the corn syrup and put something else instead”

“the GOAT White Castle the best”

“This is the third time I went to the price hill location and the doors were locked. I go to this location and they are always open ready to help me. That’s a win for them and me.”

“Super clean restaurant but burgers were way greasy considering how thin the patties are now. I haven't eaten at a White Castle in about 30 years. Public restrooms and disabled parking and access. Friendly helpful staff.”

“Great place for a quicker bite!”

“This place be jumping on Friday and Saturday nights due to it being open 24 hours. But Sunday through Thursday my experiences has been pretty good with service and orders.”

“Only issue I have with Waffle House is it's a little too expensive. The food is good but we got biscuits and gravy, steak n hash browns, & a waffle with cho chips. Oh of course 2 pops & a coffee and it was $57 to feed 3 ppl. I mean that's a bit ridiculous & 1 of the 3 ppl is only 7 yrs old. Can't really blame the restaurant tho, the cost of everything is gone up & I'm sure they're feeling the burn too & passing it down to customers.”

“We drive the hour for their donuts as they are just that good! The chocolate icing is the best around. Last Friday I got to try the cherry bombs and apple cinnamon sugar donut and those are also so amazing. We’ve had their bread and danishes in the past and guess what? Also amazing 😊 only place we get donuts at anymore”

“Croissants and ham & cheese croissants are the best around the city. Kouign Ammans & morning rolls are amazing.”

“Coffee Emporium has the best Caramel macchiato I’ve ever had - it was a perfect balance of coffee with a little bit of sweetness. I had a breakfast burrito which was fantastic! Please open a location in Liberty Twp, West Chester, or Mason 😊😊☕️”

“Thanks HPF for the delicious platter for our Easter guests! Everyone LOVED the club & Italian sandwiches! 😋”

“The drinks are expertly made and the place is immaculate! Shout out to Jack!”

“Ribs and green are delicious!!!!”

“The smash burgers and fries are yummy! I just wish that they still served their delicious pies for dessert. It's a real shame to not serve something so mothwatering good as their honey vinegar pie.”

“Honestly some of the best sushi I've had in a revolving sushi place. Good size cuts and tasty. Was here a month ago and came back for my birthday, and we love an hour away in Columbus area. Totally with the drive.”

“Loved it!!! Food was great but service was even better ! KATELIN, KATELIN, KATELIN!!!! We shall return!”

“my wife and I went to Thai Lom Cuisine today... we had a spicy eggplant and beef dish as well as each having green chicken curry spice level 4. I can say is the portions are generous, the food is fantastic, and the service is wonderful-smiling courteous staff... I doubt there is a better Thai restaurant in Cincinnati. This place is nestled in the wedding District in Reading on Benson Road. We will become regulars very soon. 5 stars!! their Curry is Silky Smooth flavorful as close to perfect as you can get.”

“I’ve probably taken out food here about 25-30 times now. Every damn time the food is phenomenal. I always get Joes Royal Sub or Ted’s Italian with a side of potato salad or broccoli salad. The food is great, the place is quaint and welcoming, and they even know me by name and have my order up as soon as they see me walk in. I will be sure to continue greeting my work lunches here, and recommending to all my friends!!”

“Hands down, the best hummus I've ever had. I want to drink it, it's so good. The chicken platter is fantastic. I hardly ever eat out, but when I do, it'll be here.”

“Great food! Friendly atmosphere!!”

“absolutely the best cornbread I've ever had!!!! service was outstanding food was even better”

“Thank you for coming to TriHealth Finnytown office!! Your treats are absolutely amazing and so addicting 🤤 now excuse me while I stuff my face with this banana pudding 🥰”

“Sammi and the whole crew here are the absolute best!! The shakes and refreshers are first class, delicious, healthy and top notch products used! It’s a great way to start my day!!”

“I visited Kings Arms Coffee today for the first time, I was impressed! The coffee was silky smooth, I would recommend it.”

“I stopped by Allez Café and had the carrot soup — absolutely delicious! You can really taste the freshness and care that goes into their food. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and Candace was amazing — so friendly and attentive, she really made the visit special. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for good food and great vibes!”

“We absolutely loved working with LaDawn for our wedding cake! From the very beginning, she was kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. She really listened to what we wanted and helped us create the perfect cake for our day—a delicious spice cake with buttercream frosting that was beautifully made and delivered right on time. Everything went so smoothly, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how good the cake was! We’re so grateful for LaDawn’s talent and professionalism and would highly recommend her to any couple looking for a stress-free, wonderful cake experience.”

“Some of the best pizza I have ever had. The employees were great. If New York style is what you like, this place is for you. Hot, fresh and on time!. Cant wait to be back in town to have it again..”

“Best kept secret for breakfast!! We will definitely be back!! Super friendly staff!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oakley Crumbl is hands down one of my favorite stops! Their Dr. Pepper dirty soda (with cherry, vanilla, and heavy cream) is absolute perfection—it’s my go-to every time. And the cookies? Amazing doesn’t even begin to cover it. We’ve honestly never tried a flavor we didn’t love. Every week feels like a new treat and they never disappoint. So glad to have this spot close by!”

“One team member said: "Cafe Mochiko is hands down one of the best Japanese bakeries that I have had the honor of trying. Everything is perfectly balanced regardless if you are a sweet or savory kind of person! The best part was my gluten free wife had some incredible options as well. The only thing that I wish is that I knew about them sooner. They are award winning for a reason and I highly recommend everyone to check them out!"”

“Everything is perfect! Love all of his Cincinnati restaurants! Excellent dining and best steak in the Midwest!”

“Omg! This place is a must! From the delicious apps to the mouthwatering Baileys chocolate dessert this is a definite 10/10!! Customer service was top tier!! We drove from Ga to Michigan and back and saw this spot on TT so we stopped and we are so glad we did!! Kudos to the bartender, server, and chef!!”

“Great place probably one of the best meals I’ve had so far this year, prices are reasonable and the service was so quick. I went on a Friday night and within 30 mins I ordered, had my food, and paid- you can’t beat speed like that. I had the butter chicken and the sauce was very thick- I ordered not spicy and I think I’ll be able to take my family members here that are sensitive to spice.”

“Amazing food, beverage, service & atmosphere!!!”

“I am in the area often for work and have even delivered here. But I finally got to try it today! This iced mocha is divine. I WILL be back. It’s so cozy inside and the staff was very nice.”

“My husband and I had dinner here before attending the Nate Bargatze comedy show on Sunday, October 26th. We were running late due to the Bengals game letting out, and the traffic and crowds in the streets were beyond chaotic. We called Bourbon's and informed them of the situation and they were so kind to hold our table for us. We finally arrived and we were greeted and seated immediately. The service, the food, and the ambiance were all excellent. We would highly recommend this place. It's a great location if you're attending an event at Paycor Stadium, the Reds Stadium, or the Heritage Bank Center. It was an easy choice being so close to the venue we were attending and we're glad we chose it!”

“Went here for a date night and left so full and happy!! Our server, Jenny, took such good care of us. It was nice to have the menu and specials explained to us in details and got a lot of recommendations from her, too. We ordered the crab cakes, mussels, lamb rack, their steak and crab special for the night. Everything was cooked to perfection with right seasonings and temp. We really enjoyed the special-the filet mignon was soooo tender and the crab was sweet! It was cool to have a candle lit butter and Cajun spiced lemon on the side for the crab. We were so stuffed at the end but couldn’t help but get dessert to go. The crème brûlée NY cheesecake is SUCH a treat and I’m so glad we got it. Service was 10/10, would recommend everyone to go here for nicer dinners.”

“I have always wanted to come to the Capitol Grille for dinner or lunch. So I finally had the opportunity to come for my birthday lunch. And I was not disappointed.The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful.And my server was just as delightful and well knowledgeable about menu. She had a pleasant and friendly personality. The food was excellent. The decor was relaxing and enjoyable as well. I would suggest for anybody who wants to come to a fine dining restaurant to come to the Capitol Grille . They will not be disappointed, because I was not.”

“I've had the brownie and the confetti cookie, and they were both moist and very delicious, 🥰”

“My husband and I decided to celebrate our anniversary in a new way. This was the perfect choice! The atmosphere was relaxing while having a great time with the themed entertainment. Sitting back and enjoying a 3 hour dinner with no phones gave me peace and relaxation. The food was good but the service is the best. Every person was friendly and helpful; making the experience more memorable.”

“We ordered our wedding cake here and it was fantastic! The tasting box was phenomenal and they gave us so many options of flavors! It was hard to choose but we decided on carrot and cream cheese frosting- which is a flavor we never thought we would choose for a wedding, but it was the best carrot cake we’ve ever had! It was also a stunning cake and they delivered exactly what I envisioned! The entire team was prompt, friendly, and so helpful in our communications. I will definitely go back for future events! 🍰”

“We had a great time! This restaurant is taking risks by making completely original dishes! We love the vibe and service! Definitely gonna go back and recommend to whoever I can!”

“Stevie was our server and was very good. We ordered the Melting Burrata app and it was very good with grilled ciabatta bread. We both ordered steaks and they were excellent. Baked potato and Brussels Sprouts were very good as well. The only disappointment for me was the rolls. I was looking forward to them because we had dined here a couple years ago and the rolls were a highlight. Last night the rolls were different-not warm and a bit dry. Other than that everything was great!”

“Everything! My personal all time favorite, their Triple Mousse Cake; dense thin choc cake bottom with inches of chocolate mousse; dark, light and white chocolate. To die for! I order it at Grove Park Grill. You do not share this dessert, you have it all to yourself😂💕”

“Listennnnn!!!! This one MANAGER named SHAUNA!!!! At the overlook KITCHEN….. so very professional and kind and considerate!!! Customer service at its FINEST!!!!”

“me gusta mucho la atencion que le dan alos clientes👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻”

“We came in early(3:30)on a friday, the server was great and knowledgeable. We travel for work and expect to get what we pay for, we recieved just that. Top line The steaks were cooked just as we asked and the sweet potato was out of this world. King crab legs and oysters for appetizers couldn't get any better. We will be back thank you”

“Tristin, our server, was excellent. The food was delish and since we got the special it was a great bargain. The commotion in the bar at the end of the evening was a little disconcerting but was handled swiftly.”

“Im picky about potato salad and theirs is so so good. The meats are all so good it's hard to chose. The cornbread is Grandma approved and she is picky about her cornbread 91 and she loved it. She also had the chicken and loved it. The deserts are nice size and yummy my husband had the chocolate cake said it was really good Granma and I had the banana pudding very good. Wish their prices were a little lower but hey all restaurants are now expensive but the food is worth it. Yummy 😋”

“Best tacos in St Louis !!! Food is amazing ... Very professional! Big shout out to one of the managers Mirah Moss !! Good quality professional service !! try it you won't regret it !!”

“Come and enjoy nice people and great food”

“I love this place. The atmosphere is beautiful!! Their patio area just amazing!”

“This classic dairy stand offers great ice cream treats. It is a great place to go on a hot night for all sorts of tasty creations, and the staff provide great service. There are plenty of tables to sit and eat at. The downsides are how close it sits to Hamilton Avenue and its sometimes heavy traffic, that they only take cash, and the lack of restrooms.”

“Having a mother from Germany and having been raised on everything German, Kantine is like coming home (just don’t tell my mom). The beer is so delicious that it doesn’t sit heavy on the stomach. It’s a given that the food is delicious but the fact that the flavors are so satisfying is what put lunch over the top. If you have ever had kaffee und kuchen in Germany then you will love these deserts! 11 out of 10 starts!!! Prost!!”

“We absolutely have a blast every time we step foot inside FW!”

“Me and the family stopped in as we havent had Mongolian in a while as they've all closed down around us. 10000/10 would recommend this place. I never knew egg drop soup was a thing, and this restaurant turned me into a fan!! The staff was awsome wish I could have that staff in many other restaurants we go to!! Even our picky kids enjoys the experience and food as well. We will return again soon.”

“We had a great brunch on Sunday on our way out of town . My son has a lot of allergies and they were very accommodating and generally just pleasant people working there !! Will come back anytime I’m in the city”

“Very good food I will go back again!!”

“Took my kids to see my mom Crystal at work finally and they were super excited about seeing Mimi at Wild Eggs! Food and service was awesome thanks! We are looking forward to our next visit!!”

“The pastries were excellent!! They clearly sell out fast - we visited twice and the first day we showed up an hour after opening to a very limited remaining selection. The croissants had excellent flavor and a really nice textural contrast between the exterior and interior. I tried a number of pastries and think a must-try is the artichoke croissant. If I were local I’d be here all the time!”

“What one of our team members says: "Milkman in OTR is the go-to spot for the best smash burgers in Cincinnati, and it's so much more than a burger joint! They serve alcoholic/non-alcoholic milkshakes and slushies, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, and more! Plus, the cozy retro vibe of the restaurant makes it such a fun spot for date night or hanging with friends. We highly recommend trying their blue raspberry soft serve!"”

“Fire. I got a bowl with chicken and a side of the brisket. Both were amazing. The similarities to chipotle and with the cheese because the rice the chicken, the toppings were different, even though the ideas are similar. The coconut hot sauce was amazing and flavorful, and didn’t scorch your tongue so the rest of the flavors didn’t come through. The brisket absolutely juicy And amazing and good just by itself. I can’t wait to try the pork belly next time.”

“Excellent food ! The Sope s I had were fantastic. My husband’s burrito was exceptional and sauces we’re great too.”

“We went there on 8/10/25. The food was very good!!! The only thing I did not like is the girl who brought my food had her thumb not on the edge of the plate but actually in my plate so I did not eat the green beans that was where her thumb was. My suggestion is that the people who bring the food wear plastic gloves. Other than that the food was good.”

“Was just at the Eastgate Frisch's. Best in the system. The guy in the drive-thru was amazing! Will definitely come back!”

“When I was entering your establishment, I was bring it immediately with a smile and options on your menu. Since I've never been to your restaurant before. Congratulations on having such an exquisite staff and nice place to come and eat.It won't be the last time.”

“The food, atmosphere, service, and ambience at Mt Lookout were top notch! The HOE‘s team members, Julie, Mitch, Bri, and Murph, were extremely hospitable and friendly. We were seated and served in less than 30 minutes. I recommend the Fried green tomato BELT sandwich with sweet tots (with the maple aoli), or the Chorizo Burger. The grill chefs cooked them to perfection. Then pair these tasty sandwiches with a Murphy special, a pomegranate - mango martini or a cold beer! It’s a match made in heaven. We‘re definitely going back soon.”

“The service was great, very nice and quick to service us. Drinks were there in only a few minutes!.. Margaritas are the best! Manger came out and addressed us asking if all was good. Food was great and our waitress was amazing. She boxed our leftovers and bagged them for us.”

“We've been going for years & never disappointed. Once we had cold something & the Owner/Mgr had it made fresh & on the table quickly. Always a joy when we leave. Staff if all great!”

“From the moment we made our reservation, we were treated to a hospitality and warmth sorely lacking in today's world.

“Absolutely delightful. Superbly delicious Italian cuisine, served by a friendly and attentive staff.”

“Heard about this place on Tiktok. Really loved the vibes! Hoping to drop by if I'm ever in the area.”

“We came up from Arkansas to visit our friends and just happened to come in and try the deep dish pizza and wings, and WOW, absolutely delicious and well worth the trip. now every time we come back to Cincinnati, its an official stop of ours!!”

“Best customer service and food.”

“I'm from Florida and found my favorite restaurant in Cincinnati! Amazing home cooked southern food!! Thank you for taking me back home while I enjoyed your Lamb chops dinner!!! I will definitely be back for the Salmon and Red Snapper!!!”

“Loved it!!! Food was great but service was even better ! KATELIN, KATELIN, KATELIN!!!! We shall return!”

“Exceptional service, food, and atmosphere! Very friendly staff and amazing beers! 10/10 recommend!”

“Love the place, been going for years on occasions and getting the same dishes every time. Had the best server I've had last night (was not paying attention to the name but a man with a mustache and scruff) who asked me the first time if I wanted to add carrot puree in place of the cheese (no dairy) on the cauliflower tacos. I've been served them so many times and nobody had ever recommended that. 10/10 service and food, they were so much better with that puree on them”

“Amazing night out with five star drinks. The atmosphere, the music, the service and the drinks were equally awesome. Music was exactly the right volume that we could still talk to our friends.”

“Our table of 4 was sat right at our reservation time, a table outside with a beautiful view. Restaurant was packed; however, service was quick! Food was delicious as well as our mixed drinks. We had the mussels, apple & walnut salad, salmon entree, chicken & risotto dish, the NY strip, broccoli with goat cheese. Loved it!! We will be back. If you're not eating - there are a few tables outside with fire pits to sit & have drinks. There also cute lounge tables inside to sit & have drinks.”

“Loved it! I haven't been in years and we decided to head over for dinner. Everything was amazing. Service was impeccable as was the food. Highly recommend it!”

“This is my favorite restaurant in Cincinnati. The service and food is always on point. I get the garden hash for breakfast and either the scallops or the mushroom pasta for dinner. I love the ambiance in there as well. They have a nice outdoor area and they have areas you can rent out for parties. Highly recommend.”

“We ate here for the first time last night , it was packed but we were seated right away and they moved us over to be closer to heat with no issues whatsoever; our server Emily was super sweet and the hostess as well !!! We can’t wait to come back, our food was delicious and great servings … Emily was very attentive and was great with recommendations .. hubby is a cook and can be a little picky haha 🤣 but he LOVED everything he even wanted to tip whoever made the Mac and cheese anywho 10 stars ⭐️”

“Quite possibly the best meal we’ve ever had!”

“Fantastic food! Best bfast spot in the city 5 stars.”

“Service was great and everyone was friendly. Appetizers were great, drinks were excellent , food was very good but the mussels I had were so tiny I couldn’t believe it. Our desserts were very good. Loved they had music and the atmosphere was awesome. Only disappointment was the mussels which were definitely not like New Orleans”

“Super impressed with Better Blend Anderson. My friends have raved about BB Florence for years. I finally found BB in anderson. My family has ordered over 10 smoothies so far and we've enjoyed all of them. My favorites are LeanGreen and PBOreo. Impressed with the fresh produce used, the size and value. The store is so clean too!! Well done!! You made me a regular in one week.”

“I’m only through some of my green tea and the crab ragoons appetizer and I’m already loving the food. Exceptional service too! The place is also so cute - lot of photo opps. There is a fish tank with a lot of fish you might recognize from a famous fish movie.”

“Ate at Lucy Blue today and had such a wonderful experience! Not only was the pizza delicious, but I met the owner, Jim, who was super nice and welcoming! Definitely recommend if you’re in the area.”

“The food and service was great!”

“Food was fabulous! Great beer! Will definitely be back. Kudos to Chef JB 👏👏”

“We finally made it to David’s Kitchen & Bar (home of what has to be the city’s largest pretzel!) and it certainly lived up to its reputation! We had the fish and chips, chicken tenders and steak tips. Loved it all. And David was incredibly kind and gracious. 💗🪄In an amazing coincidence, the woman we saw earlier today as Glinda (in the Children’s Theatre production of Wizard of Oz) is a David’s employee. She wasn’t there tonight, but when the manager (her aunt!) heard we saw the show she came over to our table and had Hayley Facetime my girls! It made their night. 🥰 Thank you for a wonderful experience and delicious food. We can’t wait to return!”

“Stopped in on an overcast Sunday afternoon and was greeted with enthusiasm and excitement. After a quick T&C's for handling projectile axes, we were escorted to our throwing bay and instructed on proper form, safety, and game scoring. Staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to help a couple of noobs learn the finer points of axe throwing. I was asked not one, not twice, but THREE times if there was an NFL game I was interested in, and they put my game of choice up on the mega screen. We had a ton of fun hurling iron, and the staff was amazing. Looking forward to returning with more people to experience the duel.”

“This place has such depth in soups, The ramen is quite tasty and is better than the ramen shops in west Chester but the pho is amazing the depth of flavor is amazing. Soup dumplings are great. And the prices are comparable to the Cincinnati market. This place has great value. And is a welcoming spot that I share with my young family (7,4) I am very thankful for this restaurant, and in a matter of fact after thinking about this I am going to go there right now !”

“I am in love with Curritos healthy delicious abundant food all in one bowl! I am a health food freak and im so happy to find them at Currito. I can taste the good health lol. Please open another Currito in Eastgate!! Me and my husband are your biggest fans! Thank you very much! We need more of these please!”

“so the waiter was really sweet & very attentive I believe his name was Malik!! my friend & I saw him tend to several tables with a smile on his face. the food was so good. I had the vegetarian omelette. the drinks are really good too! if you want to try something new, I would recommend!! 🫶”

“I really enjoyed my experience at City Bird today! It was my first time. I was greeted and assisted by the cashier Brittany she gave me a detailed description of the menu to help me out, she also recommended a few of her favorites! I love how attentive and efficient she was while also multitasking helping others! Very exceptional customer service! I had the buffalo blue sandwich meal it was really good! I will be returning! Thank you!”

“Hometown vibe, best coffee roasting from Coffee Emporium, Loveland empty-nest owners, and a great place to sit down, talk, relax, work on weekdays, and host a private party.”

“Ramen, bao buns, curry pan are our favorites but everything is delicious and service is fast. We’ve eaten in and gotten takeout and had a great experience each time. Highly recommend.”

“My hubby and I absolutely love eating here! The food is made per order and always served hot and fresh. The chicken tenders are huge and so delicious and so are the fries! We've visited once a week since they've opened. We definitely recommend.”
