“Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Seated right away. Server was friendly and professional. Manager was engaged and helpful with egg allergy questions via email beforehand. Hot beer cheese, house truffle chips, Krueger's burger without special sauce or dijonnaise (egg allergy), and Rocky Marciano were all excellent. Rare delicious brioche bun with no eggs! Overall great experience and highly recommended. We'll be back!Dietary restrictions: Egg allergy - no eggs in the brioche bun, beer cheese, pretzels, or house truffle chips“
“If you are a diner person, this WWII-era establishment is a great breakfast spot. The hot chocolate is out of this world, and the usual diner standbys are all on the menu.This is a Hyde Park institution, with regular customers. This morning when I was there, the waitress got a gift from a regular customer— an outfit for the baby the server is expecting. It’s that kind of neighborhood place, which warms my heart.“
“Was sooo hungry and delicious that I ate it before I could take a pic. The burger is amazing with tots!Parking: When you turn into the lot before the restaurant if you go all the way to the left, there are signed parking spots for the restaurant that is FREE“
“Absolutely fantastic food, service, and atmosphere. Modern diner vibe with mouthwatering burgers, delicious boozy milkshakes, and the best, most tender, juciest fried chicken I've ever had.Parking: You can usually find street parking nearby“
“The place is like a novel that is about to happen. It's like America in the 1950s all over again. Once you become a regular -- it doesn't take long -- they are happy to see you. They will call you by your first name. There are a lot of working people who come in there for lunch and middle management types with ties and shirts with rolled-up sleeves. They come there because the food is great and the servers are amazing. The servers draw happy pictures on your check saying thank you. You can watch them cook; it's a diner. I usually get a Greek Salad but the hamburgers and fries are great. So are the Gyros with the Tzatziki. Coffee is bottomless and you have to tell them to stop! The food is great and the service is great. It's like family.They are busiest from around 11:30 to about 1:30 PM. They close at 4 PM. They only open on weekdays. They take credit cards.Vegetarian options: Not vegan but you can get salad and sometimes vegetarian soup. It is Mediterranean so you should be able to work something out. Ask the staff what they would recommend.“
“Not much to say. Just burger perfection. Nothing fancy about any of it. Its a dive in the best sense of the word. Just meat, cheese, soft bun, onion and pickle (I add little ketchup and mustard on bottom). Thats it!!! Nothing else needed. I will make the 40 min drive again for sure.“
“This place is a hidden jewel of NorthSide. My friend hipped me to this place and I am now a big fan. They have a great food menu, try the salmon salad sandwich, heavenly!!! It's so good. They have great wonderful drinks. The bartender know what they are doing. Happy hours drinks Deals are the best. 4-7. You gotta come see that for yourself. It's a cute retro place and it may just be your favorite spot too. . They have a patio in the back that is also awesome as well! Come check it out! I'm mad I didn't know about this place before this week!“
“Chef Salazar has successfully created a tasty brunch nook in Findley Market. Come for the food, not the atmosphere. The Monte Cristo made on delectable French toast, not too sweet with just the right amount of jam. The Carlos (formerly goetta hash) with goetta was savory with just a hint of smoky yum. Both the blueberry and chocolate chip pancakes were also delicious. We added a side of bacon-crispy and charred on the edges! The breakfast sandwich, not pictured could do better on presentation but the taste recovered the blah plating. The Espresso Martini was the perfect drink to round out our sweet and savory abundant breakfast. The bill was under $90 with tip, for 4 of us with shared dishes of bacon and the Carlos. The restaurant itself is a little boring, the coo-coo clock wall lacks creativity, the chairs & tables are reminiscent of grandmas kitchen, slightly uncomfortable and no place for a purse. But the fact it is on the corner of Findley Market and the food is great makes up for the lack of creative atmosphere. Hopefully they splash some paint on the walls or work up the decor to deepen the homey and comfortable feel they are attempting.“
“Nice little café with a convenient location that was within walking distance of where we were staying while in town. The options on the menu were a bit limited but a nice variety to keep things interesting. Plus, a friendly staff and calm atmosphere makes it a nice little spot to drop by.“
“Gordos in the hole in the wall burger spot that you didn't know you needed. With thick, unique, and tasty burgers. Thick cut fries come standard. There are so many great burger combos to try, but you need to try either the GFat or the simple PBJ. Across their menu you'll find other sneaky good options like the tacos or the pear salad, but the burgers are the core of why you seek out Gordos. Service can be a little slow, especially when it gets busy, but you can often find this place to be fairly open unless it's a Xavier game day. Helpful to know: Park to the left side of the building in the odd looking lot. The right side of the building parking is owned by a different building/business. On nice days, see if you can sit in the back patio. It's a little oasis from the noisy of Norwoods main drag.“
“I have been a skyline fan for most of my life. Blue Ash chili has changed me. They do not skimp on your cheese or chili portions. The staff are very friendly and make you feel at home. To top it off it's reasonably priced! Inflation hits everyone but somehow Blue Ash chili keeps it affordable.“
“My family was visiting Newport Aquarium and after we left we found Mad Mike’s to eat. We ordered 2 of the Big Tex burgers and chicken tenders. These were the best burgers we have ever had and my son loved the chicken tenders. The service was great and the employee we encountered was amazing.“
“I was always a big fan of a hamburger joint. They seem to have gone out of favor.This place has the best tasting burgers I've really ever had in the last 40 years at least:) everyone's burgers were over flowing with toppings of there choice filled the plates to the rim and just spectacular!!!Can't say enough ...the burger is back!“
“Perfection!Garth Burger, loaded, cup of chili, loaded, french fries, and a large Coke. It's been my order, my whole life and I love nothing more than that meal.Nostalgia has a lot to do with my review. lLile a lot of Cincinnatians who grow up in Hyde Park I have been going to this restaurant for over 45+ years.My happy place!“
“Great place for a delicious burger! Go back in time with classic rock music that inspires a unique menu - burgers named for bands and songs, like the “Lincoln Pork” or the“Bread Zeppelin” or even the “Rob Zombwich”. Tables decorated with all sorts of musical artists.“
“It's hard not to like Anchor grill. It's as "local greasy spoon" as it gets, but it has a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Sort of if your Mom and a couple of her friends opened a diner, and you stopped in for dinner. The staff are friendly and polite, and the food is surprisingly solid. If I'm in the Midwest, I have to satisfy my breaded, fried pork tenderloin sandwich craving. Theirs is thin but decent, and you can't beat the price. Cash only. Give it a try. The pancakes look great. If you're not a local, be aware many restaurants here allow you to smoke inside, and this is one of them.“
“I had the chef salad. I had to order extra ranch dressing and cheddar cheese. I love their ranch dressing. One cup just isn't enough for such a large salad. It was really good. Husband had bacon cheeseburger with fries. He said it was really good. Service was good. She was very busy. It was right at dinner time. We were just finishing up as that crowd was coming in at 5:30pm on a Wednesday evening. We will definitely be going back to the Delhi location. We usually go to the Harrison location. Delhi is closer to home.“
“Food is unbelievable good, Might be some of the best Mac and Cheese, mash potatoes that I've ever had.. The cod was perfectly cook still juicy on the inside. The apple cobbler was amazing not all sugared up could actually taste all the apples. And the girl at the counter extremely friendly, and helpful, even the guys behind the counter were friendly. If I ould give them 10 stars I would!! I will be back soon and often. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!“
“The food was amazing! Super tasty, all of the menu items had very creative names. We had the meatallica burger with geotta added on (most of the menu has either geotta or grippos you can add on and its delicious!) The oreo speedwagon shake was also delicious. All in all a must have if you're in Northside and want something quick and tasty for lunch (: the patio area was very nice and not so cramped in the dining area. Although the tables inside the restaurant are very cool and have a lot of neat little things in the tabletops to look at. Awesome food, staff is very nice, atmosphere is very cool. Will definitely eat here again (:Kid-friendliness: Very family friendly, there is a whole kids menu that has some interesting names such as the Fleetwood mac n cheese meal. Definitely one to check out with the whole family (:“
“We stopped in today for lunch/dinner and it was our first time eating here. I got the fried chicken sandwich, my sister got a burger and my boyfriend got the nachos with smoked chicken. The chicken sandwich was one of the best chicken sandwiches that I have ever had and I haven’t had many of those and the fries were delicious. My sister said the same thing about her burger and my boyfriend really liked the nachos. The server was very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was nice, laid back and relaxed and the prices weren’t that bad. I will definitely be going back and I recommend to anyone who is reading this review who hasn’t been there yet.“
“The owner is so kind and quick with service! My go-to spot for halal food in OTR, everything is fresh and delicious. There have been a couple of occasions where I walked up and there was no one in the building (despite being "open" according to the hours on the window) but I can tell it's not something that happens frequently ?“
“As I am becoming a regular patron of Friendly Stop Bar and Grill in Glendale, Ohio, I can confidently say it's become more than just a dining spot for me—it's a home away from home. From the moment you walk in, you're enveloped in a warm, welcoming atmosphere that feels like a big, friendly hug.What truly sets Friendly Stop apart is the sense of community it fosters. It's a place where locals gather to unwind, share stories, and create lasting memories. Whether you're catching the game with friends or enjoying an after work drink.In essence, Friendly Stop Bar and Grill isn't just a restaurant—it's a haven of hospitality, where good food and good company come together to create unforgettable experiences. If you haven't paid them a visit yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. Trust me, you'll be glad you did.Parking: There is plenty of off street parking“
“The burger madness deal and the loaded fries here are simply phenomenal! I like to add barbecue sauce to my burger and dip my fries in ranch and both are just so good. Oh and the Hurricane Arthur is beautiful but also So delicious! When able I like to sit near the window to watch the world go by while eating and all in all its just a nice place to go. We're there fairly often as proof that I mean it hehe“
“5 more stars because I ordered the porkopolis burger and it made my whole day McDonald's burgers will never cut it again. The nachos are to die for, amazing flavor and the portions were ridiculous. We'll definitely be going back soon. Shout out to our server Carlos who went above and beyond to round out our “
“Happy St. Paddy's Day! Less insane the Hap's Irish Pub, but still a great place to toast our ancestors and the Emerald Isle. Apologies for the fish and chips, but they were a must for my husband! We did have an Irish mule and a Jamison.“
“Quaint little spot I'm Obyonville. Best chicken tenders ever. They're beer battered and fried and they are out of this world.Parking: Paid parking lot is 3.00 per hour but there's always plenty of room. Street parking available but high in demand.“
“Favorite burgers in Western Hills! The Nation and Memphis are my favorites and their tots are really good as well. Their BIT sandwiches rotate and are also really good as well (the current one is a fish sandwich that's delicious). We've also been there for brunch a few times and everything we've tried has been very good. I also really like that there's a pickup window.Vegetarian options: Black Bean BurgerKid-friendliness: My kid loves the burger and mini corn dogs.“
“My favorite local restaurant! The burger special is my favorite weekend bite to eat. The fry seasoning is insanely good on their crispy shoestring fries. And when I took my mom, she raved about the cucumber sandwich. Staff is always friendly when my boyfriend and I go. I’ve dined in and had delivered and I’ve been satisfied with both, but definitely prefer sitting in the restaurant as I love the atmosphere.“
“First time at Turf Club! We had a party of 6 and were seated instantly on a Friday evening. The dining room consists of the bar, some booths, and tables in the middle using bar stools. The staff were super friendly, and the ambiance was inviting. Definitely some the best chili and one of the best burgers I'll probably ever have. Top notch quality all around! Shoutout to Sarah for being such a great server and for giving great recommendations. If you want to really experience it all and get some cocktails, expect to spend $100+. 100% worth it, we will for sure be back!!“
“Food and drinks were super tasty. We had Brian as our server and loved our time there! He suggested that we sit downstairs which was completely open for us. Brian offered information about specials and their best drinks. Definitely ask for him if you stop! The atmosphere of the place was great for a night out with friends.“
“Visited this location for the first time. Was short on time so used the drive-thru. I ordered the spicy chicken sandwich value basket which came with fries & a soft drink. I also got a cup of dark chocolate decadence frozen custard. The employees I interacted with were polite & helpful. I was given a number & asked to pull forward & wait for my order. An employee brought it out within 4 minutes. I was impressed that the fries were steaming hot! The spicy chicken sandwich was good & made as I requested. I always enjoy the frozen custard - yum! I'd eat here again.“
“I tryed the new smash boy, it was moistened very good. Got a bowl of chilli, it was heat hot, there chilli is Not spicy, but it does have good flavor. Hubby got a.cup of chilli French fries and a big boy all food came out hot and fresh. ThanksParking: Handy cap parkingWheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“I was ready for a small outing. There was Frisch's. I received a warm welcome and was seated quickly. This was not a busy time but I was given first rate service. Food was good too. Try dining in. You'll be glad you did.Kid-friendliness: I'm not a kid but I was dining alone and there was no bad vibes. No one even raised an eyebrow.“
“Really enjoyed the entire experience. Parking was free and near the business. Tweedy's is very close to the main entrance. Place was busy, but not packed, we were able to secure a table near Tweedy's. Both cheese burger and chicken sandwich was good and big. My only gripe is being charged $2 for a can of mountain dew. The Korean chicken place has 20oz cokes for $2.50“
“Neighborhood bar. People know each other from high school. Party room. Friday night gumbo. Grilled cheese with bacon. Chicken wings and good fries every time. Great place to hang out, watch the game, enjoy some pub food. Doesn't get more relaxing than that!“
“The vibe during a Bengals game was crazy. Seemed a bit under staffed for it though - had some minor trouble getting service. Great TV angles and we liked our food. Pizza is pretty standard though so I'd go for burgers or other menu items instead.“
“Do not pass up the hashbrown balls! This little piece of Cincinnati history is a wonderful place to enjoy your mornings and early afternoons. Even though the place is full of regulars you'll feel so incredibly welcome as a first timer.“
“The fat Al was really good. The chicken was honestly better than the burger, but together it was fantastic. Added a lot of salt. Has a tangy sauce on it and they toast the bun (looks burned but it still tasted great). Fries were a tad papery - may have been because I went at an odd time. Still really good. It's in the food kitchen and there are tables around the building to eat at, but I would try to take it outside. If you are eating solo it will be too much to get a meal and try any other places though. I did go at an off time but they made all the food fresh right in front of me. Took some time but was worth it. Too expensive for me to be a regular but I'm glad I tried it once!“
“I grew up less than 1/4 mile from the Frisch's in blue ash. Having been there more times than I can count, I can honestly say that this location has hands down the best breakfast bar by far..... Everything was hot and fresh and not the same junk they have every time you visit. Please keep up the excellent work guys!!“
“Ah, fellow space traveler, gather 'round! Let me regale you with a tale of gastronomic exploration at Swenson's Drive-In on Madison Rd in Cincinnati. Picture this: I parked my starship (okay, It was a F-150, but let's keep the cosmic vibe) and activated my warp lights. The menu materialized before me, not on a screen, mind you, but through sheer telepathy. Yes, this is a drive-in, not a mere drive-through. No faceless boards here - just a parking spot and a hunger that could rival a black hole.The server sprinted over, like a caffeinated Tribble chasing a warp-speed mouse. I ordered a double cheeseburger with fried mushrooms, and the server nodded as if saying, "Ah, the classic warp fuel." But then, my friend's request: a grilled chicken sandwich and potato puffs. Alas, the app had no fried chicken sandwiches listed! I leaned in, whispered "Captain Kirk would've sorted this out with a photon torpedo,” and the server promised to relay the message to the manager. Bless their dilithium crystals.Now, let's talk, value. Swenson's delivers more bang for your gold-pressed latinum. It's like getting a warp drive upgrade for the price of a replicator synthehol. And the speed? Warp factor 9, my friend! The shakes? Creamier then a Vulcan's logic. The desserts? Sweet enough to make a Klingon smile (which is rare, trust me).So, fellow cosmic wanderer, if you seek sustenance at warp speed, Swenson's is your nebula. Just remember to park, flash your lights, and prepare for a teleportation of flavor. And may the force - wait... wrong franchise! Live long and nom nom!“
“The food and drinks are delicious and reasonably priced! Always clean and friendly service. Plenty of TVs and rooms to watch your favorite sports team. Very diverse, love it!Wheelchair accessibility: One level, easy entrance, plenty of room to maneuver around.“
“Food was awesome our server Melody, by the way Good Luck at UC. Graduation. Was outstanding, polite . This was our 1st. Time , and we will be back. House margaritas were very satisfying. Good luck to El Barrill and our Server Melody, also this restaurant is Pet Friendly.“
“We have been eating ZOLA BURGERS for years. Our recent visit was incredible because of Desiree, the bartender. Bartenders on that strip usually lack personality, but Desiree was sweet, knowledgeable, and warm. There are dozens of pubs on the strip with glitter and brass, but we will come back to KY for our Zola burgers...and Desiree.“
“100% recommend! The I've been several times in the past to where I would highly recommend coming here. If you're looking for good food, great variety of brews, and fun atmosphere to hang with friends or family, this is your place! I'm a huge fan of their buffalo wings, loaded chips, and burgers! I was fortunate enough to be the first customer to have a pepperoni pizza off their new stove! It's good and can't wait to see what other kinds of variations happen with the new set up. The service was fantastic and workers were super accommodating. Look forward to when I go again!“
“I hadn’t been there in about a year. It was Good Friday and met my friend for lunch. Our server was pleasant and got us our drink order and knew exactly when to come back for the order. I wanted only a light meal and wanted to eat vegetarian. The salad was delicious and I ordered Saratoga chips. It was just the right amount of food. The restaurant was was perfect for conversation. It’s located on the CSX rail line; we could hear the trains but the sound was still ok to have conversation. Five trains passed during our lunch! It was interesting to glance and see what was the consist. Food is reasonably priced, parking not a problem.Vegetarian options: I had a side salad that had fruit and cheese on it.Parking: Plenty of options as they are at a crosssroads.“
“This is the best place to hangout or just chill and stop for some food, or some drinks. I go here almost every Sunday with my church. The people their/ Their Service is amazing they are so kind and get to you right away as soon as they can. I can not find a place like it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“
“McCoy’s is a very nice place to eat and relax. We like eating lunch or dinner there and we go often. We like playing Keno even though we seldom win it’s still fun. The staff are always welcoming and friendly. The food is very good and they offer a lot of choices . Their food prices are very reasonable and they are very accommodating on splitting dinners etc. We enjoy are meals, there! Definitely a place to check out if you are in the area! Cheers.Parking: There is ample parking at the restaurant.“
“I was expecting to wait a long time because of the looks on the faces of the folks that were waiting for their food. They looked upset, so I just sat down. There weren't many people in the dining room at all. I started playing a game on my phone and waited approximately 3 minutes and my food was done. Kind folks and the food was still fresh when I got it home. Very delicious! Awesome place to go for a late supper on Thanksgiving eve! Happy Thanksgiving all!Parking: No.“
“Saw the mixed reviews and it made me nervous but I tried it anyway. The fish SLAPPED, as the kids today would say. It was well seasoned, not too salty and fried HARD. Yay! The yams were pretty good and not runny. People have a tendency to NOT know how to properly cook yams. They use too much water, when yams are full of water themselves and need just a small amount and not to be saturated and lose flavor. The greens? Chopped too uniform like. These do not look hand cut, they aren't canned but they aren't rolled and hand cut. They are still good. Now, on Doordash, you can't order cornbread but in store and on their direct site, you can. I took the liberty of making my own corn cakes, as you can see in the picture. I'm glad they do offer cornbread though, despite the Doordash issue. Too many restaurants scream "Soulfood" or "Southern" in this area BUT don't serve cornbread. The sides are HUGE. That's a plus. I ate on this meal 3 times.They also sent me a free side of Okra. I sincerely appreciate it. I LOVE okra.I know I was long-winded but hey... lol.I will be back.Edit: So, I'm confused now. Apparently, their in house menu doesn't offer cornbread anymore. Y'all can correct me in the reviews if need be but I will leave my review up until further notice lol.“
