“This continues to be one of our favourite German restaurants in the tri-state are. We started with one our favourite appetizers ftom here; the Rueben Balls. They come stuffed with saurkraut, corned beef, and swiss and are served with 1000 Island dressing. It really is like a whole Rueben sandwich in a little bitty fried ball and was a delightful appetizer. For my main course I got the Mettwurst Plate. It comes with 2 grilled mettwursts served with mashed potatoes with gravy and a side of saurkraut as well. The metts were absolutely on point with a tremendous flavour and a proper snap that only the finest sausages have. The saurkraut was just as good on it's own as it was in the Rueben Balls and their mashed potatoes and gravy were awesome as well. Our waitress did a great job and the restaurant always looks festive and fun. All in all another great meal at one our local favs.“

“Well run bierhaus at the Factory 52 venue of Norwood. Clean, comfortable with friendly service. A variety of classic Euro style beers are available. Not inexpensive though. A single beer runs ~$9 USD. But worth it considering the comfortable setting and service. Dog friendly.“

“This is a really cool spot! Very nice bartenders, they swapped out my drink I wasn’t a fan of for something else, which I really appreciated!! And the Korean bbq place attached to the bar is sooo good. We got the kimchi, mozzarella stick, garlic soy fried tenders and the chicken bulgogi egg rolls. All super amazing 10/10 honestly“

“I am visiting Cincinnati for a concert and decided to stop by Rhinegeist to have some drinks before the show. The environment is spacious with plenty of seating, the brewing vats are in the seating area so you can watch the employees work their magic, and there was even cornhole boards and bags for guests to play. Carey, who was serving at the bar, was incredibly friendly and professional. The atmosphere is great and the beers are delicious. I had told myself I would have a 2-drink maximum, but the selection of beers has convinced me to have at least one more! Thanks, Rhinegeist Brewery!“

“This is a great place with so much history! the waitress, Jasmine, was friendly and did a great job!“

“I have been a HUGE fan of "The Ferm" for a while now. I live in the neighborhood and it is my favorite spot to drop in on. Just when I didn't think I could love them more, they proved me wrong. I organized a corporate holiday party here, and Megan was such an amazing partner in the coordination from start to finish! The actual event exceeded ALL expectations! Megan, Emily and Jean Luc were an all star team! This is my third year organizing this event and this was absolutely THE BEST! THE Fermentorium checks ALL THE BOXES!!! I recommend them for a planned evening out, an impromptu quick drink, or to host a private event!!!!“

“I was at MPH last night (3/19) and they were very busy! The one bartender was super friendly and apologized for my wait. Having worked in the service industry myself I asked if her manager was available so that I could let them know what a great job she was doing and was told that the manager was not there. I would hope that not only would a manager be on site but would be out front helping with the large crowd.“

“I have been to many breweries around town and the country . The old school vibe , the incredible selection and taste of the Beer is amongst the best ! I love the names too . The bartenders were very fun and knowledgeable in helping to select our beers . Huge space for games and events . It’s in a class of its own .“

“I love bad Tom smith ! Great environment and great food and beer !“

“such a great set up with an outstanding selection of beers...very friendly wait staff and patrons.“

“Delivered food grade tanker liquids here several times, always a great experience. From the check in to the folks that off load the product. The team here are very professional and really kind. Thank you! Shout out to Josh, he was super friendly and professional. Hope to keep coming back to this great place.“

“We came for a trivia game charity fund raiser. This brewery does a lot of events to support the local community. We had a Pilsner and an IPA. Both were good. There is an in house restaurant with wings and the like. They often have live music and comedy acts.“

“Great burgers and brews!“

“Always so delicious! Everything we’ve ever ordered has been absolutely exceptional.“

“**updating my original review from December ‘24. West Side management has reached out and shared that this previous manager is no longer working there. Our deposit was refunded and we all agreed communication could have been better. I appreciate their understanding and follow up. We enjoy the times we have had at the brewery and look forward to getting back again soon.

This one star is solely for the Management of West Side. I’ve been here more times than I can count, from random drop ins for a beer, organized network happy hours to birthday parties. My family invested in the original start up back in the day. They were one of my first places to check out when throwing my mom’s surprise 60th Birthday party. The booking process was fairly simple.. I would have appreciated more communication from management when booking but in today’s world I have very low expectations with customer service.
Day of the party came and I booked 3 extra hours for time to set up and make sure the space was ready. I made sure to introduce myself to all the staff from the kitchen manager, bar tenders (they were good) and taproom manager. Everyone was aware I was the organizer of the event and to reach out to me during for anything.
Party was great! My mom was surprised and it seemed like everyone was very comfortable in the two rooms we rented ($30/hr for 2 rooms from 4-11). I reached back out to the taproom manager for my $100 deposit back & received the unprofessional response attached. I did realize once we arrived at the party that my balloons had confetti inside of them which confetti is not permitted. Balloons are permitted though so unless we went around popping all of them there was no issue in my eyes. I did immediately asked for a broom so I could manage any mess during the party (which there wasn’t). I stayed after with my husband, mother (birthday girl), dad, and cousins to clean everything up spotless.

The second issue was around our guests eating food from the party next to us. This was one couple (65 years old) that got confused & didn’t realize this was not our party. We took over 80% of the party space so it wasn’t clear to them that there was even another party nearby not a part of us.
The fact that no one from west side even brought this to my attention is ridiculous. I would have happily apologized to the other party and purchased food for them to make up for what had happened.
From start to finish Colin at West Side has not been helpful and has been extremely rude. I feel like I need to blame the kitchen staff as well for not communicating at all.

Sadly I would not recommend West Side for any future events. They didn’t feel welcoming and seemed bothered by the 3 children there (out by 9PM) that were very well behaved & enjoying themselves.

The 30+ Cincinnati Firefighter brotherhood that attended is also disappointed to hear how this was handled and won’t be having any future meet ups here.“

“Great food and service. Wings are awesome and so we're the flatbread. Homemade blue cheese best I've ever had. Bre was our server and did an excellent job“

“Amy was a great server one of the best experiences I had in a restaurant in the longest time will be back“

“Great tacos and wonderful staff!! 🌮“

“Loved the igloo! Shoutout to Kris for going above and beyond and making us some 5⭐️ mules!“

“Best Mac and cheese and great beers!“

“interesting space and good beer.“

“I plan events all over the Cincy area and I have to say this staff is phenomenal. Easy to work with, always professional with a “we will make it work” attitude.“

“Pretty solid place to drink and eat, with perhaps a few kinks to work out. A minor situation beyond the establishment's control broke out while I was there, and staff handled it very well. My biggest complaints were that the hard seltzers were flat and the kitchen seemed to be out of a lot of things. Still, I would go back, and when I do I'll adjust my rating accordingly.“

“The fish haddock entree is out of this world. What a great atmosphere and friendly staff. We will be back Ivan, we loved your place.“

“My friends and I picked Voodoo Brewing on a whim while walking downtown Cincinnati and it was such a hit! Not only was the atmosphere perfect, but the owner brought us our food, had great conversations with us and made sure we were comfortable and satisfied! The food was terrific (I recommend the dill pickle pizza!) and the drinks were great! I cannot wait to go back.“

“Nice little stop for a variety of beer styles“

“Service, at least on Sundays--which is the only time I go there--is excellent!

Vegetarian options: Very good roasted Brussels sprouts.

Parking: Free parking in the lot across the street, at least on Sundays.“

“My husband and I were celebrating our wedding reception with our close friends and family. The staff was so sweet and catering to us all. The drinks were amazing. Jackie was amazing at communicating everything and making all the planning easy for us. I'd definitely recommend that if you have a party or event, you need a space to come here! They will make everything worth your time. If you're looking to take nice pictures, the top balcony has a lovely backdrop of old buildings!“

“While visiting thee high school that my wife's father attended, we stopped for lunch at Gilligan's on the Green, a restaurant and brewery. I was told by our waiter that Gilligan's was once the old fire station of Wyoming, a suburb of Cincinnati. We chose to sit outside on the deck. Inside the resturant, our waiter said, there were rooms that acould accommodate small groups up to 60 for a special event or party. It was a Friday and from some past remembrance of my youth of having fish on Fridays, I chose the fish and chips. My wife had the grilled chicken sandwich. I didn't get a few "fingers" of fish ... I got a hunk of fish, expertly fried with a nongreasy tempura like crust. There is a great list of pub style favorites on the menu, and a full bar.While not entirely an Irish pub it can't be ruled out:) Gilligan's has great service, ample parking and is wheelchair accessible.

Parking: Plenty of available parking. This was lunch time.

Kid-friendliness: Outdoor seating. Family atmosphere.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair accessible.“
