“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.”
“This is the best restaurant in Cincinnati hands down. Not only is the food unbelievably delicious, but the ambiance is stunning. Most of all, the service is impeccable. They really make the experience very personalized to whatever occasion you are celebrating. Erick was our server and was very knowledgeable of all the items and provided great recommendations. The assistant manager, Jared, was also very attentive and friendly. Such an incredible experience, we can’t wait to go back!! Get the butter pie for dessert!!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Food was fresh and had all the favorites you want for a Mediterranean restaurant. The five stars are because of the genuine service you will receive at this family owned place. There is something special when you feel the passion of the staff who are proud to be there and the plates they put out.”

“We were here for a mid afternoon meal to celebrate a birthday. The Service was stellar, food was delicious and each person in our party of 5 loved their meal as well as the craft cocktails some of us enjoyed. It was my first experience having an apparel spritz and it was quite enjoyable. The price point per person with beer and cocktails was about $45 per person. I wasn’t sure how formal the attire would be and wore a casual dress with sandals. That was almost dressed up compared to most for the time of day, lots of shorts and jeans, if this helps anyone decide on what to wear. I highly recommend this establishment and will be going back.Dietary restrictions: The server made a point to ask if any of us had any dietary restrictions.”
“Went for a birthday dinner and had an excellent time. The service is impeccable--efficient, friendly, with all of the added touches of a fine dining establishment. The food overall was very good, although not perfect. The Amish chicken was a little too salty and the tartare was good but uninspired. The scallop was by far the best dish, I would come back again just for that!!Dessert was delicious, well balanced, with excellent pairings.Overall, would very much recommend.”

“Always love mitas, and got the venison tartare this time! Great flavor and not gamey at all. Snag yourself a reservation to one of the top restaurants in the US!”

“I don't usually write reviews, and I'm sure of all reviews mine doesn't make too much difference - but I could not let this one go without saying how truly amazing this was. My server Sarah (apologies if not spelled correctly) was absolutely amazing - gave me a free lil palette cleanser of the passion fruit sorbet (freaking amazing). You go in expecting to pay a good bill, but honestly it was SUPER reasonable for the amount of food I got, the service, food quality, and the environment.I felt super comfortable eating alone here, too, so bonus points for that.Also - the food is incredible. My taste buds were so jazzed about it. If I could recreate the sauce that came with the veal short rib, I'd put it on everything haha.Anyway, kudos to the chef, and kudos to my amazing waitress Sarah. Would come back to Cincinatti for this 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.”

“We were looking for some protein before our hike in the nature preserve. SO happy we happened upon Pig Candy BBQ ? We had the brisket sandwich and pulled pork waffle. Absolutely delicious, we ended up ordering another sandwich to go. The employees were also so sweet, what a joy to eat here!”

“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.”
“We haven't had such a fantastic experience in a restaurant in so long, I forgot what it feels like. We were promptly seated by the hostess, and she was friendly. Our waitress was great and was very polite and attentive. I'll never get tired of having a refill for my drink set down in front of me before I have to ask. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, and we enjoyed the decor. I was glad we were almost finished when they sat a couple at the table next to ours, because it is a little close and you're right in each other's conversation. I got the salmon bruschetta to start, and it was so good. Everything tasted so fresh, and the flavors blend beautifully. My girlfriend got the French onion soup, and that looked amazing. She said it tasted really good. We both ordered the filet mignon, and she wanted hers medium rare, and I wanted mine cooked medium. While both steaks were excellent, neither one was cooked as requested, and both were pretty rare. I'm going to let that slide, since everything else was so good. The smoked Gouda Mac and cheese is so damn good, I want the recipe. It's very creamy and delicious. The Brussels sprouts with bacon were excellent and I could eat a bowl of just that. We will definitely be back, and totally understand all the accolades now. Two thumbs up.”

“Out of town visitor and sweet family friends took me to dinner here! We explored many of the menu options but our favorites were the Moroccan spiced broccoli texture and crisp was perfect with the sauce served with it, and Crispy falafel was my favorite dish !Roasted beets & Lebna was also good. We also ordered the potato gnocchi but didn’t get to try it because I filled up on the other dishes that arrived first.Cute vibey atmosphere! Kind service.”
“The food here is the best Mediterranean I’ve encountered. We typically order the family platter and it’s always great. Service and timeliness are spot on. Highly recommended!”
“This place is amazing. I came and got something to eat right before they closed… note: NONE of the food was messy, rushed, or under/over cooked. They took their time and made it look and TASTE amazing❤️❤️. Id recommend to anybody who hasnt had, or loves tai food☺️”
“We came in for my wifes birthday, while in Cincinnati. Samantha went above and beyond to make our experience exceptional. Her recommendations on food, we couldn't stop eating. The stroganoff was rich and creamy and my steak was cooked perfectly. A night we will remember.”
“So happy we found this place! Have been maybe 3 or 4 times and it's great each time! The ricotta toast is simply epic. Best appetizer hands down!! The spaghetti and meatballs is also delicious!!!”
“We came to celebrate my mom‘s birthday this evening and had a wonderful experience. Our server was very kind and attentive. She made delicious recommendations. There were six of us dining. We started with the Mezze board, whipped ricotta with seasonal fruit (apricots today), and deviled eggs with pickled chorizo. The pita was so warm and we each enjoyed trying the different savory, herbal, and sweet components to our starters. I really appreciated the atmosphere because it allowed our family to talk and catch up. We also ordered and shared two portions each of the Arancini, chicken kebab, and Oishi shrimp. Everything was delicious and I especially loved the preserved lemon flavor in the Oishi dish.”

“Popped in before dinner for drinks on Friday night. Parked right out front of the spot and breezed in. After being warmly greeted by the host, we parked at the bar. The place is beautiful. Love the design choices and the blue notes. A big table carved into the back wall looks great for a group. The drinks take awhile for the staff to make, so prepare yourself. However the wait is definitely worth it. Loved every drink we had. The French 75 was light and crisp. The Peardon my French was tasty and not overly sweet. I'm not a huge rum person but would highly recommend the hibernation sour. The bit of salt and spice was fantastic. Can't wait to come back. I want to try their daytime coffee and food menu.”
“My leadership team met here for a planning session. The atmosphere was great! The staff was so kind and helpful. We ordered a variety of drinks. I ordered coffee, others ordered wine. We also ordered a charcuterie board for the table. It was nicely prepared and everything was fresh. Highly recommend!”
“We enjoyed the whole dining experience from the warm welcome to the fresh food! We had the calimari, the Greek salad (loved that dressing) and the tender chicken thighs.Parking is not easy but the food is worth effort!”
“We celebrated our Mom's 81st birthday and could not have been more pleased. Our waiter was knowledgeable and friendly. The service was top notch. Our food was delicious, every single item, including the scallops, the salmon (my favorite), of course the steaks (tender and juicy), and all the sides (especially the Brussel sprouts). And then there was dessert!! Carrot cake and butter pie were the top favorites of our group.We appreciated the attention to detail and our experience was excellent!!”
“This was our first time here. Our kids brought us - their treat! It was one of the best nights out we have had in years! The food was scrumptious, the service was top notch and the company was second to none! I highly recommend! This visit was one for the memory books!”
“Always a great place to go forA brunch, one of the best brunch place,Staff is very attentive and friendly,Food is fresh and well prepared,GO YOU WILL LOVE IT AS WE DO”
“If i could give it 100 stars I would. My mom and I came for restaurant week. It was my first time here, and I was very impressed! The view is amazing, the service was very nice from the guys parking our car at vallet to our waitress. The food was definitely the best part. It was the best Caesar salad I've ever eaten, the sea bass was melt in your mouth amazing and the dessert was great too! I will definitely be back”
“We went to Wodka Bar on a date night:- The bar staff were very friendly.- There are only a few tables and the whole setup is very much bar vs restaurant.- The atmosphere is great.- Most of the drinks are based on infused vodka.- The menu has some authentic Russian / eastern plates.- The atmosphere and decor is more a prohibition area NY vs RussiaWe had a good time”
“We had a great date-night at Tony’s! Paul was our server and was amazing. He was personable, went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect, and had great menu suggestions. The steaks were cooked perfectly and the portions were great. Paul suggested the cheesecake and it delivered! Great service, great food, and a great night!”
“A fun night out and a great way to try lots of different sushi. Each plate only has a few pieces which allows you to find ones you really like and also order more via the train. They have a few non sushi options to satisfy people who don’t like it but still want to go.”

“I am a first time customer that called to order coffee on Monday and spoke with friendly rep, no hassle very helpful. My order was delivered by FedEx on Wed. I can’t wait to try the “Sumatra”.I will order again from this family owned business.”
“A beautiful art deco space and the fare / drinks / music were quite good. My wife and I ended up sitting at the bar where Morgan was doing quite the job taking care of the many thirsty patrons in his gentlemanly manner. He was the reason we came back the next evening!”
“The atmosphere here is very warm and kind. My server May has become one of my favorites. The hospitality I was offered was second to none. This will be my main Waffle House from now on.”
“We go here all the time and it's one of the best waffle houses I've ever been to. The staff is so nice and attentive. The food is top notch and the place is always clean and well kept. I live just up the road and couldn't be luckier to have such a great 24 hour restaurant so close. They also give me the veteran's discount which couldn't be more appreciated. I love any place that shows our service members and vets the love and support they deserve.Kid-friendliness: Very good items for kids like chocolate chip waffles. They also have paper waffle house hats they can get.Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheelchair accessible.”
“Lol I ordered all kinda stuff at the drive thru intercom, got to the window and he only charged me for and gave me 2 drinks and french fries. My boyfriend was like "tell them to get it right" and u declined. Paid for what he gave me and we left.I wasn't supposed to be eating that much that late at night anyway. You see how a White Castle drive-thru cashier did God's work. Lol ?Thank you White Castle for helping me with portion control.”
“Construction makes it hard to get to the place, then when you do, the drive thru is under construction too. But the service was still good under the circumstances...”
“Food was amazing as always! But this time we were being impressed with the management on at the time. Matthew showed true kindness and leadership. He was cleaning and restocking and making sure everyone got breaks in the lull of business. As a bar grill owner Matthew is the kind of guy we dream of! Way to go!!!!”
“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”
“So I almost hate to tell y'all but this is the best white castle's in the city. They change their oil, the store is clean, and they work hard. These people are HEROES.”
“Really can't think of a single time this white castles has ever let our family down. I could always count on them even during the pandemic when they were running a skeleton crew.”
“Been a couple years since I've been to a waffle house because there aren't any in Cleveland where I live. Workers were extremely sweet and attentive and repeatedly checked on me. Food was great!”
“They are always busy late at night. They do a good job and the food is always fresh and hot. Line is long sometimes but the hard working employee gets people in and out quickly. You can tell it's managed and ran decently.”
“Wonderful staff.They were able to accommodate my large order very quickly.Please note call ahead so it doesn't strain the staff or hurt.The people behind you waiting again.Wonderful thank you again”
“Server, Tonya, was quick to greet us, cheerful and attentive. The food was excellent! I ordered the avocado toast topped with two fried eggs (SO GOOD) and my daughter ordered the Jr. Cupcake Pancake Combo. We both enjoyed our food and experience. The place could use a little music and a refresh but that didn’t matter too much to us.”

“Golden Hands Bakery is filled with masterpieces of deliciousness. Ron and I stopped in today for an Opening Day Donut for a home run review! My Apple fritter was crispy on the outside and moist and power packed with cinnamon and apples on the inside. Ron’s sticky bun was sticky and Carmel coated with pecans and cinnamon. Beyond amazing morning experience ?”
“Cincinnati hit the jackpot with Boosalis Baking! I used to jet off to Paris for work, trying every croissant spot there, thinking nothing could match up back home. But Boosalis proved me wrong in the best way!Their chocolate croissant (pain au chocolat) is the real deal. Seriously, it gives the famous spots in Paris a run for their money. And don't even get me started on their plain croissant—it's a close second to my favorite in Paris, Ble Sucre.Now, I can get my croissant fix without the long flight. Big thanks to the Boosalis team for bringing a slice of Paris to Cincinnati!”
“Best pizza in Cincinnati.We ordered margherita and hawaiian pizzas, and they were both perfect. Il Gusto pizza is ultra thin and crispy with high quality ingredients. The margherita especially was fantastic, and even my young children loved it.The greek salad was fresh with a house made dressing. We wished there were whole kalamata olives, but it was still delicious.”
“A fun night out and a great way to try lots of different sushi. Each plate only has a few pieces which allows you to find ones you really like and also order more via the train. They have a few non sushi options to satisfy people who don’t like it but still want to go.”
“I can't say enough about this place! Such great, fresh and flavorful food! Great wine and beer choices! The service was exceptional! Must try! Highly reccomended!”
“I love everything about VV. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. The espresso macchiato is perfection in a beautiful teal blue cup. I love to enjoy one in the front window and watch the happenings of Mt. Lookout square. VV is not just a coffee shop though, they also have delicious pastries, sandwiches, meals, and drinks.”
“I could eat here at least twice a week no problem. The cheesy taco with whatever meat and you can’t go wrong. Making this review and I’m going to get some tacos now.???”
“My boyfriend and I went to this location for a date recently, and our server Livia was so wonderful. She was helpful, attentive, and extremely charming. I love the vibes of this place and the staff hired.”
“Amidst the meat and cheese markets, this counter stands as an oasis and beacon of compassion. I have never been disappointed in the several times I've visited. If I were to recommend one place to a visitor, this would be it. Ordered the Italian sandwich, my favorite. 100% plant based. Taste is out of this world. And satisfying. If you haven't been, go! Just a heads up if you go at peak morning/lunch time on the weekend you may have a difficult time finding a seat to eat as the Market is open seating and nearly all of it is outside.”
“Went here for brunch and found absolutely phenomenal crêpes that are reasonable price, both sweet and savory selection choices. Very impressed by the food quality and taste and presentation. Not ostentatious or snooty but delicious. Communal seating with a few two or four person tables so room is limited, it’s a classic Cincinnati shotgun style establishment so you may have to wait to get a seat. The food was well worth it. Highly recommend for brunch!”
“Absolutely incredible pizza, I can’t even begin to guess how many times I’ve ordered from St. Francis but it’s a lot! Every time the pie is spectacular, world class pizza in the 513! keep up the good work!”
“First time going here and I was highly impressed. The pizza taste very GOOD! I ate two slices and got full. This place isn't that big, but they have orders going 100mph! Would be nice if they would expand one day and have a bigger shop. Can't believe I've been passing this place up thinking it wouldn't taste that good. They say don't judge a book by its cover, and this place is a prime example of that.”
“There's nothing fancy about this restaurant -- but the food is fantastic and the service is great. We can't get enough of it and visit regularly, usually when we don't feel like cooking for ourselves. The food is richly flavored and consistently delightful. Most things are cooked with ghee rather than oil, which is more to our liking. Prices are reasonable, especially considering we frequently split each serving into multiple portions AND still go home with leftovers to enjoy the next day. I think we're a few visits away from being on a first-name basis with the staff/ownership; it's to really nice to see familiar faces every time we come in to dine. We can't recommend Shaan enough!Vegetarian options: We often only eat from the vegetarian selections of the menu, and we're always satisfied!Dietary restrictions: I can't eat anything made with Canola oil (aka Rapeseed Oil) -- there's none of this in any of their dishes as far as I am aware, though I've not asked about the kids' menu. I believe they have options to accommodate Vegan restrictions, but that's not been my concern.Parking: Right out front, lots of rows, plenty of spots.”
“We enjoyed a delightful lunch at The Capital Grille where we tried their salmon and Signature cheese burger. The burger was a perfect blend of flavors accompanied with delicious truffle fries. The juicy salmon complemented by the mango avocado salad. Must try the lobster bisque if on the menu. Each bite was a savory delight, and the top notch server Bijen added a wonderful touch to the meal. Overall, it was a delicious experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and tasty option. Looking forward to coming back for dinner. Thanks Bijen!”
“Food from scratch, made with the best ingredients. Never knew about the kids cooking class. Very elementary, but the kids loved it, and the staff did everything to make it great for all participants. Thank you executive Chef Karl! Handling, smelling, and talking about all of the Italian themed herbs was a nice touch.”
“If i could give it 100 stars I would. My mom and I came for restaurant week. It was my first time here, and I was very impressed!

“Out of town visitor and sweet family friends took me to dinner here! We explored many of the menu options but our favorites were the Moroccan spiced broccoli texture and crisp was perfect with the sauce served with it, and Crispy falafel was my favorite dish !Roasted beets & Lebna was also good. We also ordered the potato gnocchi but didn’t get to try it because I filled up on the other dishes that arrived first.Cute vibey atmosphere! Kind service.”
“We had a great date-night at Tony’s! Paul was our server and was amazing. He was personable, went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect, and had great menu suggestions. The steaks were cooked perfectly and the portions were great. Paul suggested the cheesecake and it delivered! Great service, great food, and a great night!”

“Everyone there was really nice, and the service was super fast too! Got a TON of food for the price, all of which was beyond excellent (chicken shawarma wrap was HUGE and the falafel appetizer was almost too much...but it was so good, I couldn't stop eating). Can't wait to go back and check out more of their huge menu, and I can't recommend Baba's enough.”
“The parking lot will tell you all you need to know. It's always packed and if it was bigger even more people would probably come. It is worth the wait though! They offer a rewards program which isn't common with the creamy whips around here so that's a nice added bonus. They are currently running a special where you can take a yard sign and earn a gift card. There are a few food options and the chili is Cincinnati style and delicious. There are a few non dairy options like dole whip and slushies. The best dish I've had here is the Reese Cup parfait. Mine is pictured without whip cream but it comes with it if you like. It has enough flavor without it for me. If you're obsessed with the peanut butter and chocolate combination then you'll love it. Lots of different and unique options for everyone.”
“If you want delicious soft serve ice cream this is the place to go to. The ice cream is nice and creamy. This is my favorite place to go to in the months that creamy whips open.”
“Went here for lunch and the food was really good. The meat was tender and flavorful. The fries were delicious! Definitely will be going back and try other options on the menu.”
“Lawrence (Frisch’s - Blue Ash) provided excellent customer service. My meal was delivered quickly and was fresh and hot. Now eating there often. Also, I appreciate the late drive-thru hours. ? (4/9/24)”
“Great food and friendly people. We eat here often. Try the Kickin' Kay Lynn for a little bit of spice or the Sassy Scotty for a great chicken bacon ranch. The grape salad is good also.”
“Drove from Morrow OH to have a special meal for my husband’s bday w our 2 adult children. We made a reservation for 7:15 and were able to be seated right away on a busy Friday night. Unfortunately we were seated by the front door so I was cold most of the evening and the metal seats are very uncomfortable. The $10 pretzel balls were a bummer because we only got 10 of them. My husband loved his Chimichurri Steak, my Royale burger was cooked perfectly and seasoned great, fries were plentiful. My daughter loved her Multibeast burger but my son said his Cemita chicken sandwich was nothing special…he didn’t even eat it all. At $3.50 each I think sweet teas and soft drinks should be free refills. I told the waiter it was my husbands bday and he sd we “might” get a free dessert. However, we did not. If I lived closer to Wyoming I would probably give Tela another chance…skipping the app and drinks.”
“A true Cincinnati favorite! It's a great stop to wrap up a date night. My personal favorite is the double scoop ice cream of cotton candy and lemon sorbet, I know it sounds weird, but trust me, it's delicious!”
“The place was popping! Service was super friendly with a smile, good recommendations for what to try, and my drink was great! Loads of seating, cool outdoor ambiance available as well, and plenty of parking.”
“This is one of the best upcoming places out there. The choices were excellent and the service was absolutely wonderful. I plan on going back and enjoying the outside with the chickens and goats”
“A quaint Dairy Queen with everything you need. The staff are what make it more than a 5 star experience.Shout out to Lizzie(y) for going above and beyond and for creating a great memory!”
“The first time I went I asked the difference between two drinks and not only did the barista explain the difference between the drinks he made other suggestions based on those drinks so the next time I went I got his suggestion, the avalanche, and it was so good! Every time I come they are so fast and so friendly. Couldn’t recommend enough.”
“Good Ice Cream and great service. Store is very clean and nicely decorated. You can buy pints to go. We had a couple incidents with homeless who came in the store while we were there causing a minor commotion, but I'm not sure if that is the norm.”
“The food was not for me but the service was good and so was the atmosphere it could have just been what I got. I don't think spaghetti and Chilli go together but it was worth a shot.”
“Stopped in at around 4 on Sunday, we were immediately greeted and given a seat. I’d never had ramen before, the server was extremely helpful in giving suggestions on what to try. Not only this, but she gave great attention to detail and was very attentive. The food was excellent, but the service we received really made the experience. I recommend anyone to stop and give this place a try. You won’t regret it.”
“We enjoyed a delightful lunch at The Capital Grille where we tried their salmon and Signature cheese burger. The burger was a perfect blend of flavors accompanied with delicious truffle fries. The juicy salmon complemented by the mango avocado salad. Must try the lobster bisque if on the menu. Each bite was a savory delight, and the top notch server Bijen added a wonderful touch to the meal. Overall, it was a delicious experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and tasty option. Looking forward to coming back for dinner. Thanks Bijen!”
“Food from scratch, made with the best ingredients. Never knew about the kids cooking class. Very elementary, but the kids loved it, and the staff did everything to make it great for all participants. Thank you executive Chef Karl! Handling, smelling, and talking about all of the Italian themed herbs was a nice touch.”
“If the only reason you come here is where the guacamole and avocado jalapeño margaritas, you will not be disappointed! The guacamole is the best I’ve ever had. It is topped with these charred vegetables that are incredibly flavorful. We also shared a variety of tacos and large plates. Enchiladas are saucy and delicious, and then we had Carne Asada which everyone loved as well.. I advise saving room for dessert because the night we were there they had flan - which I really enjoyed because it’s more cheesy than eggy (that might not be 100% accurate, but I really like the texture). Couple that with an el jefe cocktail and you’ve got yourself a winning combination!Vegetarian options: Guacamole- oh so devine! Sweet potato tacos!Dietary restrictions: Their entire menu is gluten-free”

“Had an absolutely wonderful experience!! My fiancé loves trains so I saw this experience on tiktok and thought this might be a great valentine’s day present and my goodness what’s I right!! This was a whole beautiful experience from the second you park your car! We were in the silver sword car and the waiters were fantastic. Brett was so fun as well he came up to our table and had us all laughing multiple times and answered all our questions, he was a joy. The food was fantastic, the sights especially when you get closer to the river was beautiful, the entertainment was phenomenal, overall we had such a wonderful experience. (And did I mention you get to toot the horn on the train??) We would absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to try something new and fun!! ?”
“We were given a table in the main area, the lighting was definitely on the brighter side and didn't come off as romantic. My husband and I both ordered the filet, medium rare. The food, overall, was fantastic. His filet came out medium well and dry. We pointed it out to the waiter who handled it and ordered another steak for him to be cooked properly. The manager even came over to apologize. It wasn't a huge deal, we were very understanding but it did take another 20 minutes. When we got the bill, they had actually added the 3rd steak to the tab. It was corrected when we brought it to their attention but how do you accidentally add a 3rd steak to the tab??? I'm glad my husband checked but I was fully expecting a comp of some sort on the bill for all the inconvenience. I wonder if this has happened to anyone else and they didn't catch it.”
“Listennnnn!!!! This one MANAGER named SHAUNA!!!! At the overlook KITCHEN….. so very professional and kind and considerate!!! Customer service at its FINEST!!!!”
“I love my little ghetto Kroger. Why? Because it's mine. I've seen a man roll a huge cart of groceries/food out the side door to a waiting minivan with no shame, I've seen a hungry man just unrepentantly start eating fruit out of the produce section, I've waited 10 minutes at the meat counter for someone--anyone--to show, I've waited at the express self-checkout lane behind women who are clearly doing their monthly shop with carts of food and don't give a good GD about an item limit, I've personally been harassed by an employee half my age in the liquor store who didn't believe I was 46, and every time I'm there I see employees operating with a complete lack of urgency. I'll take this Kroger over the downtown Kroger any day of the week. Even with all the above mentioned issues, there's still a larger and more diverse selection of goods. Plus, you don't have to dodge a cluster of transients trying to hustle you for "spare" change or sell you an $8 bottle of rubbing alcohol. Kroger is a grocery store that sells groceries. If you're going for much more than that, you're asking for too much. You don't go to WalMart then rate them 2-stars because you couldn't buy a Lambo, now do you? For whatever Kroger lacks in its in-store experience/shelving/stocking/etc you should know they (somewhat) make up for it with their customer service. If you EVER have an issue with ANY Kroger, don't bother with the in-house managerial staff. They're slow to respond, ineffective, and will ignore clear issues in which they simply don't want to engage (I've witnessed it myself). You can just call the number on your receipt and you get to speak to a live customer service rep. They will escalate an issue above the site level, compelling an in-store resolution that you likely wouldn't have gotten if you'd wasted time trying to talk to someone at that Kroger (so no need to silently fume over anything). I just can't bring myself to hate on Kroger. Yes, sometimes the lines are so unpardonably long I've walked in and walked right TF back out, but it's a grocery store and human beings eat groceries. In life there are just times where you have to roll with a situation and embrace the suck. I've embraced Kroger. You should too.”
“Went here for retirement seminar. Very informative. We had the filet mignon with mashed potatoes which were nicely seasoned and some broccoli that was fantastically cooked.”
Steak House • $$$$
“This place has went down, the bread is so hard and both the managers are so nonchalant and very unfriendly, niether of the 2 greeted not one customer that I seen or even cracked a smile, so unpleasant as Managers ! Carl walked around like security at this point just throw him on a security uniform, and for Kathy she’s a Karen !!!! They should have kept her in the kitchen as a kitchen manager so is not ppl friendly at all !!!!”
“Best ramen in Cincinnati. I got in 35 minutes before they closed (which I hate doing) but the owner accepted me. Fast service and genuinely just delicious food. I got the spicy pork with crispy dumplings and he gave me a small yogurt drink which was wonderful. I cannot say enough good things.”
“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 ”
“I was back in France at that cute little bistro that always highlights your best travel stories. Food was not overly fancy or unnecessarily drenched in heavy sauces, but it was tip top French (and a little American) fare. 2 of our party had the outstanding moules and frits, fresh and bathed in white wine and light aromatics. I had a sumptuous, well prepared cod Provençal. Service was prompt and friendly the restaurants rooms drenched in unpretentious French charm. Definitely moving Luca into the regular rotation. (Side note: if you’re still sad about the departure of Zulas and their epic mussels, come here!)”

“Everything about this place is nice. Most importantly the staff is by far so kind, pleasant and friendly. I've been multiple time (weekly) and the atmosphere is always the same.”
“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!”
“Friendly neighborhood bar and grill. Service was great. We got the captain crunch chicken appetizer. Sweet and crunchy tender chicken.Bacon and cheese hamburger. They grind there own. Small Bar atmosphere.”
“Great food, large portions, and your own carafe of coffee. Our server was cheerful and attentive. It was my uncle’s birthday and they brought him a bowl of strawberries with whipped cream and a candle in it.”

“Great cinnamon rolls. You can chose your own amount of icing (I would recommend mini scoop). Even though I don’t like cinnamon, these rolls were delicious. However, prepare for a small sugar shock… couldn’t finish, but the first bites were great!”
“We rented the space for a book signing after hours. The owner and staff were not only professional but went above and beyond to help us setup and cleanup. The vibe was perfect and all over our guests raved about it. The ambiance was beautiful. It couldn’t have gone better!”
“Miss my hometown downtown. Jennifer has Celiacs.. So happy to find this place which is totally gluten-free. The folks behind the counter are pleasant and knowledgeable. The establishment is clean, fresh, and inviting. Food is delicious! FULL flavor. Took a big box to take home”
“Cosy atmosphere for a quick stop for a coffee and I wish I had more time to spend here with a good book! Excellent prices and worth it for the quality of the coffee. I would love to visit again!”
“When you pull up you know the quality will be amazing. Got the Al pastor and loved it so much went back a second time the next night!!Could use tomatillo hot sauceWheelchair accessibility: It’s in a parking lot.”
“Great pizza and phenomenal people! The people are very personable and a pleasure to talk with. Some of the best pizza I've had throughout Ohio, Kentucky, and west Virginia. The cookies and canolis are fantastic as well! Definitely worth a visit, you won't be disappointed!”
“4.5 stars! Delicious specialty coffee in a wonderful atmosphere. Friendly baristas. I love that there was free parking. A bit pricy, but the quality makes up for it. I wish there was more seating!”
“We had the pleasure of eating here for breakfast. The food was amazing! Great quality and lots of it. Everything was delicious and the service was second to none. Highly recommend!!!”
“The manager David took really good care of us and this is by far of the best breakfast I’ve had and I’ve had a lot of breakfast throughout the country . If you’re in Cincinnati, you need to stop here and enjoy the atmosphere and the great food!”
Indian • $
“On a whim, we decided to try this place because we were craving Indian cuisine. Omigosh, it was some of the best and most flavorful food we've tried in a long time...and I've definitely had my share from living overseas! The Chicken Tikka Masala was melt-in-your-mouth delicious with a mild creamy tomato-buttery sauce. The Samosas were like a meal themselves, and came with 3 mouth-watering sauces. The Naan was a must with our order and the Mango Lassi was the perfect blend of refreshing sweetness! We were thoroughly impressed with the flavors and the friendly staff here. You can certainly count on us to come back very soon!”
“This is a fantastic Ginuwine Mom and Pop Shop. Delicious food extremely friendly staff makes you feel like family. Say hey to Jamie for me. I'll be back for sure.”
“We love this place! It's such a great ambiance! The cocktails were awesome! The service was a little slow, but we only had cocktails not dinner so that could be why. We will definitely go back, it's such a great vibe.”
“Terrific birthday experience for my wife. Received complimentary toast, and greeted her with birthday wishes. Server CJ was attentive, scallops and rigatoni were excellent! Nice music played; two thumbs up!”
“Bakersfield is a favorite in OTR. The pineapple margarita is fantastic and the queso with a little sherry is amazing! Highly recommend this place and on a nice evening, the outdoor seating is a great option!”
“Our overall experience with Oriental Wok was the same as always, spectacular. Took out of town guests there to celebrate their first wedding anniversary and we received the royal treatment.Food was delicious, although my spicy grouper had a little more peppers than I was expecting, but it was delicious. All of our entrees and l drinks were great and our server, Kaitlyn (?) wonderful as well as the entire staff at Oriental walk. As usual a wonderful experience. Thank you.”
“It's been a while since I've been here but they do have a great goetta hash and a great goetta pizza. I love goetta. Nice view overlooking the square. Great beer selection and great service. It's one to keep returning.”
“Absolutely love it here. The food and service are top notch. This wasn’t our first time and definitely won’t be our last!Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options availableDietary restrictions: Adhere to dietary restrictionsParking: Parking is in the garage beside the restaurant. Very accessible”
“So I'm not from the state and walked into this huge brewery that has Cornhole, trivia, multiple levels, multiple tables and such a great atmosphere and I was completely taken back by how huge it was... Definitely stop here by using the trolley since it literally stops at the brewery.They have stickers up there stairwell which is very cool, especially the Half Bushel Brewery sticker on the way out!Enjoy!”
“The best empanadas and arepas I’ve ever had. I wish I lived closer because these would be in my weekly rotation; especially because they have frozen items that you can purchase in bulk. I had the chicken empanada and the vegetarian arepa and I would love to have had enough room in my stomach to try everything else. Plus, the employees there were very sweet. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“First time here, stopped in for lunch on a whim. Me server was fantastic! Opted for a classic cheeseburger served with seasoned waffle fries. Very good. Cheeseburger was really good. Waffle fries were slightly overcooked for me but still yummy. Sweat tea was Devine! Would definitely stop back on for another visit soon.”
“We held our rehearsal dinner in the Cellar of Oakley Wines, and it far exceeded everything we could have dreamed of! The space was perfect for our ~30-person event making it feel cozy and warm. The food was incredible, and we loved the small plate, family style layout that enabled lots of networking and mingling among families. It felt more like a fun cocktail party than a formal sit-down dinner, which was exactly the vibe we wanted! The staff was amazing to work with and accommodated several food allergens. I would 100% recommend Oakley Wines for your next event!”
“The food was good. Service was good. My only problem is that a mistake was made were I was charged with my friends food for $134 when my bill was $28.03. The waitress and manager fixed the mistake but there was never a simple "sorry" or "we apologize".Still a good place to eat.”
“It's definitely a place to try. The food is amazing. The girl at the front explained the menu and made great suggestions. I will be back to try more Columbian food.”
“Came with a group for lunch. Everything was good. The only complaint from the group was the Swamp Mud drink, apparently it tasted like a black licorice liquor was mixed in for the coloring effect. But the other drinks were on point. The pasta dish was excellent. We will definitely be back.”
“This place is special. For our first visit, we selected 5 items from the menu for take out and each of them were very, very good. The only conversation we made for that hour was about the food itself. We were elated. Thoughtfully and carefully conceived and prepared, this food was a delightful experience.Do you know how sometimes a bite is so good that it will cause you to pause from chewing any further until the quiet ahhh and mmmm you involuntarily uttered have passed and with another bite comes the realization some manner of stress has left you? Thankfully, dining encounters like these are on par with some spiritual and sensual encounters fleeting as they may sometimes be. We will return with the hope that Kiki might give us this again.”
“Attended a birthday celebration. Wasn't sure what to expect. But I was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is great. Yakatori isn't a large restaurant, and I believe this is the reason the staff is so attentive. The double hibachi was the special for the day. I ordered the special with chicken, shrimp, vegetables, and fried rice. All the items were seasoned, tasted good, and the portion sizes were worth the price. Reservations are not taken. Because of their size, if you have a party greater than 6 people, you will not be seated at the same table. Other than that, I enjoyed my meal,and I will be back. Thank you to all the staff. Keep up your great work.”
“Local brewery and distillery close to Findlay Market. Focus on German style beer and clear spirits like rum and vodka. You can see the production area from the inside. An outdoor patio is available for warmer spring days to come.The menu is bar friendly. The Loaded Tots were very good. Unfortunately, I ate them all before, I thought to take a picture. ?”

“Food was good. Staff didn't make us feel welcomed; we rushed our meal just for this reason. Server wasn't friendly, she never asked if we were ok or needed a refill. Service is just as important as the food. As a visitor to Cincinnati, I doubt we go back when visiting the city again.”
“Wonderful food cooked from scratch by biagio when you order. Server very attentive. Delicious food.Please support this long time Clifton gem.Vegetarian options: Lots of veg options, and I believe most things are customizable.”
“This used to be one of the coolest bars in Ohio and was actually a speakeasy. The drinks and vibe are still awesome but picking a video and entering through the 'secret door' was what made this place special.”
“It's one of my favorite spots. They have a good salad too, with a lot of ingredients. It's called the Napa salad. I get blacking salmon. The medallions are good , and the filets are bad either”
“I've been coming to HB since they first opened. Congratulations to you guys on your 5th anniversary! Can't wait to see you tomorrow! It helps that my favorite food truck will be there also. Cheers!”
“My family came for Easter brunch today and it was amazing. My girlfriend and I had not been before, and we were impressed quickly. The crab cakes are the best I have had, and the lemon-grilled shrimp was delicious. The crab & cheddar quiche was very good as well as the shrimp cocktail. My girlfriend enjoyed the mimosa, too. Our waiter, Max, was fantastic.”
“We came back a second day because the menu was so creative and the quality so high!Delightful service staff both days making it hard to give less than a perfect score.”
“This place is awesome! The food is top notch and high quality. You definitely get what you pay for!The decor was really beautiful and we loved all the plants.We got the mussels and gnocchi which were phenomenal. The beer was perfect and food delicious!”
“Had dinner at Subito on Saturday night and Gina’s service was exceptional. I was there with two girlfriends, and she provided great recommendations and was a pleasure to talk to. The Short Rib Campanelle was awesome. The food / wine and atmosphere were good and we really enjoyed ourselves, but Gina made our experience.”
“While their premium service and quality come at a higher price point, Gourmet Delights Catering delivers value that surpasses the cost. Clients receive an outstanding experience that justifies the investment.”
“This is legitimately one of the best tacos I’ve ever had. The flavors were just so good and not overly done, and the chips and salsa were equally good. The inside is a bit of a pigsty and I think they’re missing out on a lot of indoor potential.Don’t walk, run to this place.”
“The food here is great, I really enjoy the salmon salad and I have yet to be disappointed. Dining in is a nice experience but it almost feels like you recieve too much service. Its nice to have full water I suppose but I dont need a check in from the servers every few minutes”
“The food was exquisite! Everything we ordered impressed us. The eggplant parmigiana (see photo) was incredible! The service was also amazing. We definitely plan on coming here again.”

“Reminds me of the tea houses in Nepal, very touristy hostel vibes. We got some momos and they were very good. Kind of pricey but if you’re looking for quality, you get what you pay for. It was interesting that they had their sauces and frozen momos for sale.”
“Had an incredible time at Annata. We planned a wine tasting as a Christmas present for my dad and were blown away by how above and beyond the owner, Tim, went for us. We picked out a few bottles ahead of time (with Tim’s help) and then Tim walked through each bottle with us, asking us what we tasted, telling us about the region, etc. The food was also amazing, we ordered a few charcuterie boards, dips, and flatbreads. Overall the food, drinks, company and ambiance were fantastic. We will definitely be back!!!”
“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!”
“Let me being by saying that this was the second time in my life that my wife and I have had a meal so good that we bought drinks for the entire restaurant staff.We went last night and this meal was the best we've ever had in Cincinnati. We began with the oysters and the bone marrow. If you've never had bone marrow like we hadn't, get it. I'm telling you that it's sublime. That was followed with the seasonal spring salad. I know this is a steakhouse and they do their steak as well as anyone, but I've never had a salad that good. It was the single best bite of the meal!After the salads, they brought out our 4oz petit filets, fingerling potatoes, and sauteed mushrooms and onions. We prefer to have small steaks and let it be an element of the meal rather than the meal itself and I'm so glad we did! The entire meal was delicious and I'd hate to have ordered a larger steak and missed out on the opportunity to try some of their other menu items.Finally, we wrapped up the meal with a creme brulee for each of us (they had two types so we got one of each and shared). Creme brulee is my favorite dessert and The Lonely Pine didn't disappoint!I can't wait to go back. I've been talking to folks at work about it all morning and several of them are excited to try the place as well.GO. Enjoy your night out. You won't be disappointed in taking my recommendation.Parking: We had no trouble finding street parking within 30 feet of the restaurant. They also have a free parking lot directly across the street.”
“My family had a blast, the environment is so fun, music is great, and the service was constantly checking in. (If you don't like loud music and dancing, probably not your place, though)”
“My girlfriend and I recently relocated from Northern California where it is foodie heaven. So far, it is the closest experience to California cuisine. The staff, ambience and quality of the food are exceptional. A little extra shout out to our server, Danielle. She is awesome.”
“Walked in off the street. Not really knowing much about this. Had the roasted chicken which was very good. My partner had a sandwichThe waitress was very pleasant and easy to talk to”
“We love coming to Melting Pot because it is always just so much fun❣️. Our dinner last night was amazing. We always request Brett as our server. He had great menu suggestions for us, everything was paced beautifully, we had a wonderful evening and will be back soon ?.”

“Went to hear Sonny Moormon on his regular Wednesday blues gig. He is an extremely talented guitarist and has been playing for decades here in the Cincinnati area. True to the vibe at the Meritage, he played a more laid back vibe that was not intrusive on conversation.”
“We went there for iftar (fast-breaking meal) during Ramadan and it was phenomenal. Every single dish was excellent! My personal favorite was the mouth-watering lamb kabobs, which were cooked to perfection, soft as butter. We also enjoyed and highly recommend the beef kabobs, chicken thigh, lahmacun, whole fish, and okra stew with lamb. Besides the food, I can't speak highly enough of the service. Our server was Garrett and he really went above and beyond. He checked in frequently and even brought us bowls of warm water to rinse our hands at the end of our meal (because he noticed some of us were enjoiyng eating with our hands). Emma was also superb and provided excellent recommendations (I believe she's one of the owners). You should not miss an opportunity to enjoy an excellent meal with superb service!Kid-friendliness: They were great with our toddler, bringing him an extra plate, spoon, and being so kind when he spilled rice (we did our best to clean up, but it's never perfect).”
“Wait was like, 3 hours or more when went.Food and staff were AMAZING though! Very friendly and obviosly working HARD to keep things moving. Just an abnormally busy night.100% WILL return.”
“Is this location going to close? I noticed there is a new Outback being built across the street from Liberty Center and Shae Mills also has her name as the proprietor of that restaurant too.”
“Like the other location this Forno delivers every single time. The food is predictably delicious and the menue is fresh and bright. Let's talk about the tripe... the tomato sauce with it is the star and should be bottled for sale immediately. The gnochi is great. The artichoke soup is splendid. The pasta are all fantastic.”
“This brewery is great! Love that they always have seasonally rotating beers. I can't resist getting their Bavarian soft pretzel every time I visit. The homemade beer cheese makes it even better. Staff is also so great!”
“We booked an event space for my daughter's graduation and had the best time. The staff was amazing!!! So kind and helpful and you could tell that they really enjoyed their jobs. They took such great care of us and the the beer and drinks were top notch! Thank you for helping us plan such a great night.”
“The ambiance and live music are nice.Service is speedy.Drink prices are bourbon are high across the board, but everything seems to be around $15 minimum, even pours that are $6 at other bars. It's just too high for the selection that they have.The cocktail happy hour is solid.”
“Love the space, love the beer. But not thrilled with the experience to get there and navigating it. Parking is awful and limited for such a large space, especially when they have am event going.”
“Really enjoyed this niche spot for drinks. Beer flights available along with cocktails. Friendly staff. A good selection of beers , with some that are not at the main brewery that is right around the corner. Just a comfortable atmosphere.”
“The waiters and hostesses are so kind! Definitely worth the wait, but luckily there is a waitlist feature. The combo platters are the best! The sirloin is greatttt, wasn't a huge fan of the bbq chicken, the steaks were better. The chicken tenders were delicious though! The crispy ones!”
“All the main dishes were fantastic and the service was top notch. I was not as excited about the appetizers. We only received 4 gyoza for the price, and the calamari was really tough. They felt like afterthoughts, but it didn't take away from the whole experience. Beautiful decor, and we left very satisfied!”
“I was looking for a place with a fun atmosphere to improve a rainy day, and this did the job!The aesthetic is colorful and eclectic, the music is loud, there are drinks with fireworks, and birthday celebrations with drums :)This definitely isn't a place you would like if you are looking for quiet and relaxing.The food was very good in my opinion and in my son's opinion. I got the chicken quesadilla and my son got steak soft tacos... so we went basic in the whole scheme of things, but I really liked that there were onions and cilantro in both, and the meat was very flavorful and juicy. My son said that these were his favorite steak tacos.The hostess definitely could have put a smile on her face, but our server was very friendly and attentive.We live in NKY and this will be our new go-to for Mexican food!”
“Truly a Cincinnati gem. Unique sushi and related options, wide selection of sake and craft cocktails. Staff was friendly and helpful, and it would be equally as enjoyable at a table or at the bar . Very interesting lighting. Later at night on weekends (at 10?) it turns into a club.”
“The food and service was absolutely amazing! Everything we ordered was above our expectations! Our waitress Diane was outstanding to say the least. She was friendly, very knowledgeable, and attentative to every detail and our needs. My husband and I highly recommend coming here.”
“After years of driving by, we finally stopped in tonight and it did not disappoint! Everyone was so friendly, and the food was delicious! We brought our 3 and 6 year old with us- they give two thumbs up for their mini burgers and mac n cheese. We got the James Parker Burger and Reuben fish sandwich. Yum! Alex was our server. He was attentive and so sweet. Thank you for a wonderful experience!!”
“We had an event at my business and we bought catering from Sweets & Meats. They were wonderful to work with! Billie worked with me on the menu and within our budget. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Have ordered take out twice and both experiences were amazing. Hostess is very kind and accommodating and food has been delicious. Very high quality ramen, sushi, and bottles of sake to-go. Looking forward to dining in for our next meal here!”
“Saw us walk up when they were closing up, and took our order anyway. Very accommodating , nice people. We have had their food several times before, so already knew that was delicious, but top-notch service as well!”
“This was our first time at Parkside. I enjoyed the comfortable atmosphere and The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We ordered the burgers, fries and salads. All the food was delicious and served quickly and hot. The place was very busy but neither service nor food reflected that. We will definitely go back.”
“The food is always fresh and delicious. Free freshly made chips and salsa as soon as you are seated and the service is great and professional. Sometimes the servers don't know enough English but they always make sure that the food straight from being made to the table.”
“Whether you like to brew your own beer, sit and have a beer and a bite, or just grab a growler to take home, the place has something for you. Check them out sometime!”
“So glad we tried Green Papaya in Mariemont. I didn't even know it was there. Food was very good. Service started out slowly, but when told we had limited time it became amazingly attentive and fast. I didn't love the ambiance but it is absolutely passable. Give it a try and you will be glad you did.”
“We were a walk in and they were able to seat us on an early evening on a Tuesday. Andrew and Chloe were absolutely FANTASTIC and were extremely cognizant of my mom’s cheese allergy and my nieces deathly peanut allergy. They were attentive, always checking on us but never making us feel rushed and truly gave us a great experience. The food was some of the best i have had and i highly recommend this place. I would say to make reservations on busier days like the weekends for sure! Thank you again Andrew and Chloe!”
“Food - wasn’t bad, their teas were not as strong as I like but that’s personal preference. Their ginger beer was good!Service - waiter was good, they had a larger party ahead of us so food was a bit delayed but he communicated to us ahead of time!Atmosphere - interesting to see the artwork mixed with a hotel and a restaurant!Parking: Paid street parking one block away”
“By far the best meal we’ve had while in Cincinnati! Authentic Latin flavor and great service. We had the plantains with guacamole appetizer, beef and queso empanadas and split the churrasco (steak) with a churro for dessert. Everything was outstanding. For drinks, the margarita was great and I would highly recommend the mezcal manhattan, perfectly balanced and delightful! Treat yourself to Maize, an outstanding place that does everything exceptionally well.”
“Our third visit since they opened just a short time ago and once again a wonderful experience. This for US is a true dining experience-no “ rush through dinner and get out”. If you are looking for a 30 minute start to finish, I highly suggest going elsewhere! THIS is DINING! Enjoy a cocktail, then a well paced dinner. We would normally order each course all together but were dining with elderly parents who weren't sure what they wanted. This trip we tried the Korean corn dogs( yummy) and the shrimp and lobster “ cocktail “- it was lacking in quantity of lobster for the price was our only complaint. We had to get the Caesar salad which is a MUST and it served 4 adults easily! The lamb chops were prepared to PERFECTION and we tried the mashed potatoes which had a perfect amount of potato texture, not mushy at all. I couldn't resist the scallops AGAIN and they were so delicious and LARGE so I was able to share. Absolutely loved our visit and can't wait to come back and commit to trying different dishes next time! Well worth the price for US for a date night, special occasion. But can also make this a cost effective experience easily by sharing-see you all very soon”
“You can go anywhere for a beer, but it's a lot harder to find one with the key ingredient that makes a beer so special. It's not water, or barley, or hops. It's community. And to me, that is what MPH is all about-- sharing great beer in great company. Love this place!”
“Great live jazz! The food was a bit pricy but totally worth it. I got the blackened catfish and it was delicious, cooked perfectly but slight small in portion for 18 bucks. The wife got the fish and chips and it was also amazing and much better portion wise she had leftovers to take home. Megan our server was super cool and the service was fantastic. Definitely recommend.”
“Our party of six included a five-month-old baby, and Red Feather staff was so kind about seating us at a banquette where she could be between her parents. Our server Nolan went to the kitchen and brought her a little spoon and plate of guacamole to eat, and though they have no changing tables in the restrooms, they set up a small private area in the back where she could be changed. Service couldn't have been nicer and more obliging. Thanks so much!”
“Had a wonderful meal and wine here with my wife. The food is made from scratch,waiting for it to be made was well worth the wait.l am trying to describe this amazing food the chef makes, The only thing I can say come and try it yourself. Nothing but the best! Service outstanding,ambiance amazing!!”
“This is a great place, friendly staff, awesome wood work and book cases throughout. Food was fantastic, desert was amazing. Great experience, I would give 6 stars if I could. Awesome job! Bravo. The boom boom shrimp (Hope I have the name right) was great! The desert I believe was a brownie and ice cream. The Meatball appetizer is almost a meal by itself.”

“Love it there. Almost always great food. I only ever had one instance with it being overcooked. It really is a great place to eat at and the service is greatParking: Plenty of room to park with handicap parking.”
“My dad loved this place, to the point it was the only chinese restaurant he would order from for a solid decade or so. He passed last year, and I avoided ordering since it felt wrong to eat without picking up his usual, but after going through it, I can say it tastes just as good as I remember it. I'm going to finally start ordering more often now that I've had it again.I love their teriyaki chicken skewers and General Tso's chicken, as well as the pork dumplings. I suggest grabbing a copy of the menu and calling in your order for pickup.”
“I went to Westside Venue for my high school reunion. It was a great. The location and parking were great, the music fun and there was plenty of room for socializing and dancing. Perfect for a small wedding reception, bridal shower etc. The owner took great care of us!”
“They have the best orange chicken of any place around. Have eaten here for years & never been disappointed ever. Since covid I run in & get it to go. Always friendly, polite & the servings are enough for 2 people or 2 meals. Thank you CHINA EXPERIENCE!!”
“I'm ashamed to admit we've lived right around the corner for a decade and just visited for the first time last night for a late dinner. We sure have missed out all these years! Service was fast and very friendly. The food came out quick and was amazing! A quick and filling dinner at a very reasonable price. We will certainly be back!”
“Went to an event there, and it was my first time at The Farm. Always wanted to go just sad for the occasion that it was for. (A going home celebration The effort that was taken to take care of our family was wonderful. They were so kind and friendly and helpful to make our event as enjoyableas it could be. The food was great!I'm looking forward to going back for the scheduled dinners. And the prices seem great for the food you get.”
“Ordered a pretzel tray and spinach dip. You get a million pretzels and the smallest dip they have for 25 bucks. I had to purchase another dip. Ridiculous. What a rip off.”
“The parking lot will tell you all you need to know. It's always packed and if it was bigger even more people would probably come. It is worth the wait though! They offer a rewards program which isn't common with the creamy whips around here so that's a nice added bonus. They are currently running a special where you can take a yard sign and earn a gift card. There are a few food options and the chili is Cincinnati style and delicious. There are a few non dairy options like dole whip and slushies. The best dish I've had here is the Reese Cup parfait. Mine is pictured without whip cream but it comes with it if you like. It has enough flavor without it for me. If you're obsessed with the peanut butter and chocolate combination then you'll love it. Lots of different and unique options for everyone.”
“Normally, this ice cream is fantastic! Really good flavors and good value. I rated this considering my normal experience. I was extremely disappointed in the chocolate chip ice cream. There were almost no traces of chocolate chips. The vanilla base was delicious as always.”
“The best dive bar on the westside! great drinks, good food, great specials/deals, & even better people! darts, pool, golden tee, bowling game, touchtunes, keno, scratch offs, & lots of tvs to watch any & everything!”
“Eggs Cite Meant for Me! Caught between. a Rock and a Hard place, The Hard Rock Cafe gave me a needed break!!! I know it's goofy, but I tickle the Panda like my honey would, if she were here. I never saw her lose on that one!”
“Went for breakfast this morning for the first time and it was delicious the service was great they did everything to make sure my food was the way I ordered it thank you so”

“I could eat here at least twice a week no problem. The cheesy taco with whatever meat and you can’t go wrong. Making this review and I’m going to get some tacos now.???”
“It was a good morning and I think ? they need to keep the pull pork pot full ? because I didn't have much meat ? other than that it was very nice ???.Parking: Park right in front of the building are on the side of the building come in and sit down and help yourself very nice and clean ☺️Kid-friendliness: It's kids friendly but still watch your children, because it is a main strip cars move fast up there you don't want them to wander outside by themselves God forbid other than that it's nice ??Wheelchair accessibility: Enough room for wheelchairs to sit in and eat clean nice ??”

Carl walked around like security at this point just throw him on a security uniform, and for Kathy she’s a Karen !!!! They should have kept her in the kitchen as a kitchen manager so is not ppl friendly at all !!!!”

We got a table right away despite it being busy, the service was phenomenal, and the food was exceptional! Will definitely recommend to anyone travelling to Cincinnati in the future!”

Pork el pastor tacos in the video.Atmosphere was very nice, we say outside as it was nice and we enjoyed it.Enjoy!Wheelchair accessibility: Street level, open concept.”
“The young Lady that assisted us was really great, Her Energy was very good and her attentiveness was really good. I was unaware that broccoli was not an option. Portion could have been a little more for the price. The Hostess was very nice as well. The staff was nice also. Overall nice experience.”
“We had a nice dinner at Nicholson's tonight. The food was good. The server was excellent, Joshua. But the music was so loud that it was hard to have conversation.”
“Went here for retirement seminar. Very informative. We had the filet mignon with mashed potatoes which were nicely seasoned and some broccoli that was fantastically cooked.”

“We came for a drink after and event we attended. The atmosphere was great and our bartender, Corey, made some great drinks. We will definitely be back to have dinner. A great place in the heart of Hyde Park.”
“We went during the week for a late lunch. This location was not crowded and our food was delicious and served in a timely manner. The bartender was accommodating and creative as I requested a white wine sangria, which turned out to be delicious. My steak was cooked well, coming from Texas I wouldn't have minded more seasoning but that's my southern palate. We will visit again”
“My husband and I enjoyed “The Fest for Two”. the meal was delicious. It included a perfectly cooked steak, that was so tender you barely needed a knife, the salmon, shrimp and chicken was also cooked and seasoned to perfection. The 2 sides that came with meal (mashed potatoes and broccoli) were very tasty. I am one of those people that always have to add salt and pepper to my meal due to lack of seasoning, but it did not even cross my mind after the first taste. Our waiter was very attentive and our drinks and food were delivered in a timely manner. The view was beautiful, and we were able to walk out on the balcony since Mother Nature was cooperating, which has a good view of Cincinnati. This is a restaurant I will be revisiting and recommending to friends.”
“Good food, nicely prepared. Pad Thai was a little on the lighter side, not in portion but weight of the dish (which I didn't mind actually). Friendly staff. I'd say 4.5* place. Sushimi roll was beautifully presented. As it stands, the overall on google is 4.2* so I'm rounding up - take that mr. overall google rating!”
“We had an amazing dinner here with my parents and in-laws. Everyone's dietary needs were met, drinks were perfect, and ambiance couldn't have been better. We had a few moments of wishing the staff was more thoughtful, but had no real problems the whole time.”
“Made reservations here the other day. They were absolutely packed and they handled it so well. Got us right to our table. The bartenders were on point. The drinks were fantastic. The kitchen was excellent. The food was delicious. We will be back. The staff here was fantastic.”
“Popular brunch spot on the weekends. We had the pancake tacos and the fried chicken tacos with loaded tots. Everything was delicious! My husband absolutely loved the loaded tots! I only wish the food had come out a little bit hotter.Our service was good. However, the food did take a while. It wasn't a problem for us, but it is something to be aware of if you are on a schedule.”
“Celebrated my father's 90th birthday with 40 friends and family! Tina was wonderful working with to coordinate everything. The staff assigned to our private room were amazing! They are very organized and make planning an event VERY easy! Thank you again!”

“Had a dope dinner at the aperture on Friday night. The space is super fresh with a nice minimalist touch. Sleek tables and chairs. Loved being able to see into the open kitchen and watch the chef work. Once I saw the wood fired open flame going back there I knew we were in business. Highly recommend getting smoked dishes. We started with the focaccia. It was so light and airy but still crispy. The whipped butter went crazy. The carrot dish was crazy, loved the sauce and char on the carrot. Falafel also great with the eggplant hummus being a highlight. Pasta dish was also good, reminded me a of light and classy alfredo. Service was a bit slow, but hey they just opened. Give this place a chance. Super excited to see what they can do and try new menu items.”
“Terrific birthday experience for my wife. Received complimentary toast, and greeted her with birthday wishes. Server CJ was attentive, scallops and rigatoni were excellent! Nice music played; two thumbs up!”
“Overall five stars because Gilligan's is worth a visit! It's a very nice family place with a good atmosphere and service.We had brunch and despite being full, I cleaned my plate! The breakfast platter was just right, with perfectly cooked eggs. The chicken tender with it was delicious! The waffles were yummy too! The food is just solidly good.It's clear management is involved, checking in with staff when it got busy. All around, a friendly place. I will be back for sure and cannot wait to try the outdoor seating and more of the menu!Parking: There is plenty of street parking but also two free public lots towards the railroad tracks.Kid-friendliness: It's definitely a family place and kids are welcome!”
“I am so happy this place opened up! I’ve had a few of their milk based teas and they were all soooo yummy. The owner is so nice and personable! I will def be back every week ”

“I went there for Valentine’s Day and had the best experience! The baked clams were fabulous and so was the streak. Best tiramisu I have ever eaten! Definitely recommend!! The service was great and the atmosphere is a 10/10!”
“Everything was delicious! Apps, salad and pizza! Cocktails were tasty and the wine menu is superb! Will definitely be back! We enjoyed a fun girls night out and shared everything we ordered - we loved the Cacio E Pepe, Caesar and another salad (not sure which one it was), and we ordered a variety of 3 pizzas - pepperoni Diavola - both great but my favorite was Funghi, Excellent service! Such a nice time!”
“I was not sure at first about this restaurant as I was placed on hold for several minutes but when I arrived I saw why. The bartender was very busy taking orders and answering phone. She apologized for the wait and promptly took our order. The food was excellent !! Fish chicken combo, potato and onions and greens( spicy) Kudos to this establishment and best of luck!!! I will be returning!!”
“The absolute best place to get coffee. The flavors? OUTSTANDING. If you’re in Cincinnati, make sure to visit, order anything and you’ll be impressed!Dietary restrictions: They have alternative milk”
“Phenomenal hibachi and huge portions. Bar is a work in progress but service is highly attentive and clearly truly cares about the business and making you a repeat customer.”
“Great location. Staff was super friendly. Scratched my mac and cheese itch. Felt actually kind of healthy after adding onions, tomato, broccoli, and grilled chicken.”
“I don't usually write reviews, and I'm sure of all reviews mine doesn't make too much difference - but I could not let this one go without saying how truly amazing this was. My server Sarah (apologies if not spelled correctly) was absolutely amazing - gave me a free lil palette cleanser of the passion fruit sorbet (freaking amazing). You go in expecting to pay a good bill, but honestly it was SUPER reasonable for the amount of food I got, the service, food quality, and the environment.I felt super comfortable eating alone here, too, so bonus points for that.Also - the food is incredible. My taste buds were so jazzed about it. If I could recreate the sauce that came with the veal short rib, I'd put it on everything haha.Anyway, kudos to the chef, and kudos to my amazing waitress Sarah. Would come back to Cincinatti for this restaurant ❤️”
