“Very good“

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

Great customer here ALWAYS. Please recognize them for their kindness, hospitality, friendliness and SMILES. They are the BEST. THANK YOU Mikayla & Andrew. And food was great too!!“

“I have been staying at The Phelps for business. I frequently get in late, and quite frankly do not feel like going out. The Phelps Bar is the perfect solution. I have been staying at The Phelps Hotel on and off for roughly a month so far. I have had most of their menu items and have yet to have one that has not been excellent. They recently changed their food and drink menu, so there are many new items to try. They have an outstanding "Signature Drink" Menu. My favorite is the Fig & Rosemary Old Fashioned that is hands down the very best Old Fashioned I have had anywhere, and that includes The Greenbrier Resort. The staff are all amazing and help to make the experience even better. My hat is off to Mark (I think he is the manager), Kat and Tynisa who run the bar, and David the cook. If you find yourself in the Downtown Cincinnati area close to the stadiums, then you really should try The Phelps Bar. You will not be disappointed.“

“I was working remotely with a co-worker in Newport today and suggested Webb's for lunch. I'm already a fan, but it was the first time visiting for my Cincy colleague. We had the brisket and the smoked and breaded wings. Everything was tasty and delicious- I especially loved the collard greens today which were seasoned perfectly. The overall vibe is casual and authentic with a warm sense of community. Regulars were popping in and out raving about their Friday cravings as they placed and picked up their orders. Joe, Leslie and the team never disappoint! Friendliest and most welcoming hosts in the neighborhood. Needless to say, my co-worker is also now a fan.“

“The best brisket sandwich I've had. That is coming from someone who lived in South Carolina for 15+ years. Not much fat, the meat was fall apart tender, and the sauce is delicious. Very filling brisket sandwich. Excellent service, the waitress was kind and attentive.

All the meats are smoked in the back, so never frozen!“

“The bbq food was so delicious! The homemade bbq sauces were so tasty! The baked beans were delicious too! Also, the pretzels were some of the best I’ve ever had (especially with the garlic seasoning added)!“

“First time trying Dickeys BBQ definitely recommended! They have different flavors of BBQ that’s definitely worth the try! They made a small mistake and was more than sincerely happy to fix it and make it right! Awesome genuine people that work there!“

“Loved this place. First time and will definitely be going back. I suggest the beef sliders and salmon tacos. So tasty!!“

“This place is amazing! great food and generous drinks at crazy cheap prices. Live music every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. We were visiting from the Cleveland Ohio area and found this place totally by accident. We felt like family 5 minutes after we walked in the door. Very friendly and helpful staff, and out of this world kitchen and a diverse menu. It will be your new favorite secret spot.“

“Crystal didn’t just serve us food — she ran a full-on Top Gun mission. Absolute legend. She moved through that restaurant like Tom cruse in the cockpit of a fighter jet, locking in drink refills, dropping off food with precision, and making jokes the whole time. She didn’t think… she just did. She was moving at mock 10.2, on point, and somehow everywhere at once. If there was a call sign for servers, hers would be Maverick 2.0.“

“Absolutely one of my favorite places to enjoy a night out. Laid back fun atmosphere with Live Music and seating. Huge patio area with giant Jenga, Cornhole and Connect Four. The firepit seating is large!! Outdoor bar and tons of picnic table. Inside vibes are immaculate with tons of seating, classic arcade games and billiards!! Food Menu just got a massive upgrade and it’s a must try! My favorite was the burnt ends brisket and mac-n-cheese.“

“Went with my son for a steak lunch, for Father's Day. Bread was fresh and delicious. Steaks were cooked perfectly. Everything was delicious. Our waitress seemed fairly new at the job, was not very attentive. Overall a very good experience.“
