Restaurants near Saint Bernard

“I want to give a major shout out to this Biggby Coffee in St Bernard. They are always a friendly coffee shop housed in a small building they share with Skyline Chili. After extreme storms hit the greater Cincinnati area on August 11, 2026, a large area in St Bernard was without power, including St Bernard's grocery store, Dollar Tree, Wendy's, Hamilton County Public Library, etc.

Biggby Coffee was serving people all day long and at times truly slammed with customers. What touched my heart was in the afternoon when I went down, they were patiently allowing all of us to charge phones and hand chargers, computers and tablets for kids, even in one case hearing aids! They let people know they could stay as long as they needed. Rain was coming in waves and they never hurried any customer out. Their Grace was appreciated. The customers when I was there ranged in age from 4 years old through at least 79 which is how old I am. Saint Bernard can be grateful for that coffee shop. The owner can be proud of his employees. I'm certain they made a lot of loyal customers yesterday.

I had an excellent iced latte with oat milk and was able to find a gluten-free brownie.”

“The quintessential ice cream gathering place in St. Bernard right on Vine Street near Roger Bacon high School. Super friendly local staff, nice outdoor tables to eat at, they keep the place clean, community oriented, and super welcoming and friendly. I recommend the banana split -- a classic.”

“I stop here for carry out at least every week (often twice a week). The employee at the counter is usually a teen- but always courteous, pleasant and professional. Food quality is consistant and they give it to you quickly so it’s a win.”

“I went through the drive thru and ordered fish sandwiches. I think it was the first day they started selling it for Lent. They weren’t sure if they had any. They told me they did but it would be awhile. When I got to the pay window I was offered a drink while I waited. I was told to pull to a parking spot and they would bring it out which they did in less than 10 minutes. I was pleasantly surprised about the customer service. I stopped going there because of their lousy service. The last time there I had to leave before I got my food because my lunch hour was over and needed time to get back. I will now be a customer again and I didn’t get the name of the lady that brought my food to the parking lot but she has made the whole fast food experience enjoyable again!! Thanks again!!!”

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

“My wife and I went to this restaurant today, after a great recommendation from one of my employees. This place is absolutely amazing! The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the service is completely top notch! Literally better service than I have received probably ever, and we go to A LOT of restaurants. Literally, my wife’s napkin fell to the ground and after I picked it up, the lady who was the host to us seen it and brought her a new one. Drinks did not run dry, and every single member of the staff was helping out and conversing with us. The owner and chef even came out to shake my hand. What an absolute gem in Cincinnati. This is a place NOT to miss out on. And don’t forget to order the cornbread! Hands down the best I have ever tasted. We left and wished we were hungry again and could turn around and go back inside.”

“Had a great lunch at a reasonable price and incredible staff! Lydia did a great job!! Will def be back!”

“We love supporting our local businesses and love that nearly everything on the menu here is locally sourced. There are many positives for this restaurant, including warm & inviting service. The complimentary bubbly is also such a sweet touch! The ambience is unique and cozy so, overall, service is 10/10. I wish I felt differently about this next part, but I can’t say that the food is worth the price. It’s quite expensive for what it is. Nothing we received was bad by any means—it was good! But we had one entree (one of the cheaper options), two sides, two drinks, and spent nearly $200 after tip. In my opinion, charging $15 for a side of lightly seasoned roasted potatoes is too much, especially when the entrees easily run $60-80 by themselves. Plus, the average cocktail was $16. I would feel differently if everything tasted exquisite, but it all tasted good. Nothing particularly special, I hate to say. The spices in everything were conservative, and it seems that the majority of the flavor relies on the raw ingredients themselves. I applaud their choice of truly quality ingredients, but for the price we paid, I would expect a lot more flavor to be woven in via additional culinary choices.”

“One of best restaurants in Cincinnati”

“I’ve been here quite a few times now and I just love it!! It’s a tried and true for me! I came here for the first time in Winter of this year and can’t count how many times I’ve been here since.

The ramen is AMAZING. I won’t lie… the ramen, sake, and cocktails are the only things on the menu I’ve tried so far. Everything looks and sounds amazing, but I tried the ramen the first time I went and loved it so much, so usually when I am going there, I’m craving that specifically. I LOVE THEIR TONKOTSU WITH BOK CHOY AND THE CHILI OIL ON THE SIDE SO I CAN ADD IT TO TASTE!! They also have some good sake and drink options! They definitely need to reprint the menu soon because there’s a good amount that I order and they are out of or don’t carry, but it’s not a huge deal. They just need to update it since it’s a reoccurring issue!

The servers are all so lovely and kind. They are attentive, helpful, personable, and care to remember you. I really appreciate all of the interactions I’ve had with them, their kind suggestions, and their conversation!

The place is very lovely inside, though still casual and relaxed! I love Zundo!!”

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

“Mouthwatering and delicious. Drove 20 minutes just to try this place. We will definitely be back. They only have two small tables outside so plan for take out! Best pizza I’ve had in Cincinnati.”

“The food is amazing, they have a large wine and spirt offering. The staff are always courteous, knowledgeable and very accommodating. Casual dining with an upscale feel.”

“This restaurant has the best food you will ever eat. Service is outsranding However Mike needs to shut restaurant down for a day of professional cleaning. The hanging decorations are full of so much dust and the carpet if filthy”

“What an amazing place to hold birthday party and a night out! Over the weekend we hosted my husband’s birthday party at Ripples event space. They were amazing from the service to the food and they were very accommodating to all of our requests! Trish and Matt did an amazing job with service and then everyone kept going on about the food! Way to go!!! Thank you so much for an amazing night out!”

“This is a must visit bakery! The product is simply amazing and it is clear that the team here takes great pride in it (as they deservedly should). Every time I visit the area I make it a point to stop here - even if it is out of my way - as I am ALWAYS delighted with the tasty treats. You should too.”

“The staff are amazing. The food is great. The atmosphere is special. It’s definitely a must to add to your dinning experience.”

“I absolutely love everything on the menu! My favorite is the Meat Lasagna. I also enjoy the 'Old World Italy' feel and the friendliness of the staff.”

“Strong's new Newport location has noticeably "upped their game". I've been there the last two Fridays with a group for lunch and EVERYONE agreed that their pizzas were PHENOMENAL. The ingredients and flavor profiles were distinctly fresh and you could tell they aren't aiming to be "just another pizza joint"! 👍”

“over 200 different gins. good tapas. live music.”

“All the food is excellent but the chicken wings might be the best is the area. I have enjoyed wings from all around Greater Cincinnati but none are as good as Tickle Pickle wings. Service is outstanding and the place is very clean.”

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

“Authentic pizza and pasta. Staff is customer focused and quality minded. You got to get some of this!”

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

“You need to go today! This place has great food & the owners/employees are such nice folks. I try to stop by any time I am driving by. I do mostly carry out, but you can eat there. I understand their catering is also so good!!! I love supporting good local businesses...”

“Their food is absolutely amazing! The hummus is so good and fresh--doesn't even taste like what you buy at the store. I highly recommend this restaurant for their amazing food and exceptional service! Love supporting a locally-owned restaurant!”

“We had dinner at the downtown location this evening to celebrate my son’s graduation from the military, and leaving to report to his first assignment. From the time we were seated, to the time we left, several staff members came over to shake his hand and thank him for his service, even the General Manager. We always receive exceptional care from any Jeff Ruby’s establishment, but are so grateful to our amazing server Peter along with all of the other staff who took the time to make our family feel so special. We will support this business until the end of time! Thank you for being such a wonderful place to visit!”

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

“If I could give them even more stars, I would!! The owner, Mike himself, took care of us while we were there and he was amazing! So kind and kept us smiling during our entire meal! He was so sweet with my 18 month old daughter, even giving her some suckers and a gift certificate for next time. Not only was the service top notch, but the food was to die for! We got specialty burgers and my daughter got chicken tenders, all of which were made fresh and perfectly cooked/seasoned! I can’t recommend this place enough. Already can’t wait to visit again!!”
