“I like eating there and it's great place. The only problem is is when I try to order my food and I just say I would like to have a chicken bacon ranch just the sandwich. The person on the headset says do you want fries with that I'm like I just said just the sandwich. I don't understand why they don't understand what I'm saying. It always have to ask if I still want fries. If I wanted fries I would say with fries. That's the biggest complaint about that particular gold star and also, if I order bacon like two strips of bacon I should have two full strips of bacon. Not one and a half slices of bacon to another words. I'm getting ripped off on my bacon when I go there. Not cool.“
“Oh, it's nice enough - there's a fun play area for kids, some indoor space and some outdoor seating if it's nice. There is a drive through, but when I ordered, I was directed to come around to the front to wait for my food. My nachos were ok, a little too much salsa for my preference, and well covered with everything, but I wouldn't get them again. I think it's mostly known as an ice cream spot, which they serve the Hershey's brand.I think the biggest draw is that they have a lot of choices - not only ice cream but floats and ices and sudaes and burgers and bbq. Definitely some fun options here, but not super high quality.“
“We are on a Coney tour, Empress was the first stop.it was a huge Delhi chilli spot when I was young. we went to Alexandria for empress chili for the tour and it was amazing, Steve was amazing and the staff was A + thanks for putting up with us.?“
“Password protected WiFi is great and far reaching. However it is the most unreliable place I have ever been when it comes to having what they claim on the menu. And sometimes they close up early if people go home earlier than posted hours.“
“Overall pretty neat restaurant! The menu is very limited - 3-4 options per course with 3 courses in total. Would appreciate bigger selection for this place. It’s not “fancy” enough to offer that limited menuAnd the atmosphere was not the best - a bit old/dated, not in a “antique-cool” way. Very simple interiorMeatballs were flavorfulAnd their duck is really goodHow they decided to bring out a ginger beer, after we ordered a ginger ale, because it is “ginger ale was not available, and this is the closest to it” will remain a mystery to me“
“Stopped on our way from Ohio to Nashville. Quaint little place. Friendly staff food was very good. Had the Burrata which was some toasted baguette pieces with mozzarella and tomato. Also had a Cobb salad and the special sandwich which was a toasted sandwich and cream of mushroom soup. Overall a very tasty stop.“
“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!“
“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.“
“My all time favorite is their liver and onion .. it will melt in your mouth... friendly service..always a smile.. wonderful chefs, have never had anything that wasn't good.. we live about a hour away , and visit at least once a month... a must to visit !! Treat your belly ?“
“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.“
“We booked the upstairs party room for our family Christmas party. Everything was perfect, hall was decorated and festive! They handled everything. The kitchen manager, Chuck Wilson was amazing! We worked out the menu together and he out did himself. Quality and quantity was outstanding. This guy deserves a raise! All staff members were friendly and helpful. It was a perfect night! Thank you Chuck Wilson, and Green Kayak!“
“I had a wonderful experience. Our waiter Bobby was outstanding and chef Josh's food was to die for. We even got the best cake for dessert. All in all, beautiful place, great service and wonderful food. Absolutly worth the 45 min drive for our anniversary dinner.“
“I had the filet, and it was sincerely the best steak I've ever had. I can't tell you the last time I not only finished my plate, but kept saying “ok just one more bite” and henceforth made myself miserable because it was so good. The service was great, the drinks were great, we were very impressed.“
“O'Bryons is the epitome neighborhood bar and restaurant in Newport. Service is courteous, friendly and timely. The bartender is very helpful and knowledgeable of the menu and drinks. Food is above average while being prepared well and fresh. The chicken wrap and chicken wings were tasty. Prices are reasonable for the area. Parking is a bit of a challenge with it all being street parking. Overall a good experience and worth trying out.“
“Came here to hear the Duncan duo’s and not only were they spectacular,the food and service was as well. I cannot say enough how comfortable and inviting this restaurant is, so amazing!!!!!!Also the owner came around and spoke to customer's, you do not find that anywhere and that makes it even more welcoming!Awesome great place to go and have a great evening.. you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.“
“Coaches corner is the best place. It's so much fun & the food is delicious!! The service is EXCELLENT!! You won't find a better local hangout! Casey behind the bar is a real treasure, she makes you want to come back everyday! Truly there is nothing better, it's Newport finest hidden gem if you haven't been before!“
“Everything about this place is just wonderful! Our go to is Italian Street Panini but everything is delicious. Beautiful place to enjoy a meal and can’t wait til the weather is warmer so we can enjoy the cute patio! Owner and all employees are super friendly!“
“Long over due review of my favorite local restaurant. Compare service and food quality around the city and you’ll be back!Kid-friendliness: They even have a magician once a week that is awesome with the kids. Carla really knows how to run a restaurant!!!“
“Not a fancy place, but the chicken is the best in town. Even all the extras were fantastic: mashed potatoes, gravy, cole slaw, rolls, etc. Great place for quick carry out, but also indoor seating available. Friendly staff. Free on-site parking.“
“Tried Lana's Diner for the first time. Time of our visit came just after their lunch rush. It was obvious they had been busy and at the moment of our arrival, there was only one server waiting tables. While there was a little wait, it was understandable why. The one server, though overwhelmed, did not allow the circumstance to rattle her or keep her from pushing on to take care of customers. I was impressed by how she worked her job without letting her job work her. Her attitude remained polite and helpful to those she was serving. Food was very good and was presented as quickly as was reasonably possible. It was good service considering the circumstance. I give Lana's 5 Stars We will be back!! I highly recommend this down-home diner!!“
“Very interesting restaurant with great decor. Most of the food we ordered was delicious and came out quick and hot even being a busy evening. Very skimpy on the bacon on the double decker BLT (only 4 slices on the entire sandwich but taking out the middle bread made it normal lol..) the bread was buttered and grilled which was way better than toast in my opinion.. Mac and cheese bites, onion rings, cheese sticks, corn dog bites, and pretzel bites were all "store" bought (not homemade) but delicious and of great quality! I have a pet peace on microwaved soft pretzels because they are gummy and get hard too quick but these were not!! I'm sure they are baked and seemed to have butter drizzle with the salt and were fantastic!! boneless wings were big in size and they definitely aren't stingy with the sauce, which was a plus! Buffalo chips (Saratoga chips) have no spice on them but are handmade and good regardless.. service was mediocre (no asking if food was good, finally saw the empty glass and grabbed on passing for a refill, had to get her attention and ask for the check) but it was busy and everything was fine besides needing a refill.. temperature inside was super chilly so bring a jacket! Seemed to have a large variety of alcohol which is a plus to anyone who drinks I'm sure! Very loud atmosphere but that's expected in a wing place! Very reasonable pricing! Would recommend!!Kid-friendliness: Had crayons and a coloring sheet for kids along with a kid menu“
“Their fish and chips are amazing. Some of the best I’ve had outside England and Ireland I’ve had. Recommend a Smithwick with it. Staff is amazing! Great location and I highly recommend.Kid-friendliness: Our son loved his fish and chips as well. They are kid friendly and will get you whatever is needed.“
“Honestly the best gyro I’ve ever had, and best meal I’ve had this year. Everything so fresh and well made… I was having a pretty bad day and this meal alone made all the difference and a smile to my face.!This place should be thriving! The two gentleman there were quick polite and attentive. Seriously 6 out of 5 stars I can’t stress that enough. EVERYTHING is so delicious! I live out on the east side of cincy but would gladly make the trip for that.((Will be back weekly can’t stress that enough this place is a slice of heaven ))“
“Cozy local spot. Feels almost like a cabin, with lots of wood paneling. From the decor you’ll note that Reds fans are more than welcome.If the flyers on the walls (and in the ladies restroom) are accurate, looks like they have live music every evening of the week (!) Note: I came in the daytime, so wasn’t able to benefit from that- maybe next time.Service was friendly.My overall take: Worth checking out. Not fancy and not a chain/franchise - pure local flavor, in the best way.“
“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 such a delightful time for Valentine’s Day 2023, we returned again for VD 2024. Once again, the food and service was outstanding as were all the VD touches. We were visited by the chef, maitre d’ and general manager who were all flawlessly kind as was our service team led by Hewitt who was thoughtful and prompt. Cannot recommend highly enough!“
“Excellent little bar for some good smoked wings and barbecue downtown. Staff are always great and the game-day atmosphere is top-notch.If you need a place to watch a game that has great food, especially any University of Michigan games, don't hesitate to stop in!“
“I was in awe when I walked in this place. It gave sexy, swanky, posh. I felt like I was in New York City on a rooftop and not Covington. The ambiance got me!! everything about this place turned out great, from the drinks to the food. You have to try the roasted chicken. Amazing. The cauliflower was amazing. It was so impressed with this place I came here twice in one week! I cannot wait until the summer when the outside opens and you really can be put side on the rooftop, service was excellent. You have to try the smoked old fashion. The bartenders here know exactly what they are doing and watching them make the drinks is a experience itself“
“Kendall, our server was wonderful! Answered all of our questions and spot on for delivery of our food. My problem was our seating. Our reservation was for 5 pm, we arrived 15 minutes early and were promptly seated just outside an empty private room that they seated 6 people who became very loud! And then seated another group of 4 on our opposite side. I'm checking out this mostly empty restaurant scratching my head and wondering why.“
“Arthur's is the go-to spot for burgers and the best cheesesticks around. Their burger lineup is seriously impressive, offering something for everyone with top-notch quality.But let's talk about those cheesesticks – they're next level.Bottom line: If you're craving a burger fix with a side of cheesestick heaven, Arthur's is the place to be.Kid-friendliness: Our party included our 18 month old. The waiting staff was tremendous in accommodating.“
“Went here on a Saturday a little after noon. We were seated immediately and each person working was super hospitable and welcoming! The atmosphere is friendly and vibrant while still maintaining a upscale (but approachable) scene. The menu is limited and rotates for the time of day which makes ordering easy. Everything is super high quality and definitely some of the best food I’ve had in NKY/Cincy!!! Our server, I think her name is Anette, was really great! Super excited to come back to try their dinner menu. Super great local place!“
“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“
“Another great lunch spot downtown / by Fountain Square. Gets busy, but the line moves fast plus you can order online for pickup.The Pick Two (out of soup, salad or half sandwich) is a great deal. The Club Salad and cup of Chicken Chili was very filling. Plus, it comes with a drink.My friend enjoyed her loaded baked potato soup. They also have good cookies. Prices were reasonable.Vegetarian options: All kinda of veggie / non meat soup, salad and sandwich choicesParking: All parking (street and garage) is within 1 block“
“Whenever I visit Cincinnati our first stop (right after getting me from the airport) is First Watch! Never have been disappointed in the food or service. Delicious pancakes...all the flavors especially lemon ricotta and carrot cake. Love the chia seed super bowl with toasted almond nut bread and the morning meditation drink which has beet juice and ginger. Nothing feels fast food or greasy just good wholesome food, I love that pretty much every egg dish comes with a green salad with a light lemon dressing. Definitely pop in and eat there, you'll be back!(Side note: I keep wishing we'd get some in the NY area..come on !)“
“Really good food and the Kentucky Mules and spicy Bloody Mary I had were off the charts. We will be back sooner rather then later.Today 2/11/24...On Saturday and Sunday they offer a brunch type that's not on the menu is an omlet meal. You can get and omelet with any of their pizza toppings, tator tots, toast and choice a Bloody Mary or something else to drink. Fantastic.“
“This place was so awesome. It’s great place to just come and hang out while you eat and drink. The food was delicious too. The service was a little lacking but they were very friendly. I would 100% love to come here again when we’re in the area.“
“Bake's is welcoming and bright and in a wonderful location! Still the same wonderful service and tasty food! Check them out!!Kid-friendliness: Accommodates seating needs using tables and chairs.Parking: Our family made this a special outing. Parking was easy to navigate on a weekday and reasonably priced.Wheelchair accessibility: Order area and Layout of tables appears very handicapped friendly.“
“Good service this morning! We enjoyed our experience. I get the bee keeper every time, and I have noticed the one in Oakley is notably better. Not sure why, less cheese, more toppings and chicken, fresher bread perhaps. Barely any avocado. Not bad though, just didn't hit the same.“
“A place downtown where you can still get a filling lunch for $10. The food isn't the fanciest, the service isn't the fastest, and the ambiance is of a convenience store (which it is). But it's clean and a good value.They often run out of items so don't have your heart set on a particular thing. I finally tried the pizza today (had never been available before), and it was pretty good! They also started chicken tender baskets which are also hot and filling. The sandwiches are also adequate.Sometimes it takes ten minutes to get your food because they get backed up. Still faster than many area restaurants. The seating area is fine but nothing special.If you want decent food relatively quickly and cheaply, this is a good choice downtown.“
“Always love it here but love even more to find out they do theme drinks for the theater across the street. This will get me here every show! Otherwise I enjoy an afternoon or early evening at the bar, with a few drinks and a cheese tray. Love cutting the cheese with friends. Saw a tiny lady get the largest sandwich I ever saw. Turns out she shared it, but it was big enough for a family of four! She didn't even finish her half. Huge portions are a turn off for me.“
“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.“
“Great little dive bar with awesome service, chill vibe and great drinks! Perfect spot to hang out with a group of friends to watch some sports or sing karaoke. Rooftop tables available for those nice cool nights, and also connects to neighboring O'Malleys. We had a blast hanging out here!“
“Flintlocks Bar and Grill is a neat little place. Great service. Awesome staff and customers. Very welcoming. Even have live music. And the stuff I saw come out of the kitchen looked good. Heard they have an amazing fish sandwich… gotta go back on a Friday and check it out.“
“Stopped in for Opening Day and what a great place! I missed the Bloody Mary though. Totally forgot about it. But the Tequila Sunrise was on point. I had the country ham biscuit and it was great. Karen was very helpful. Great old school vibe. I will definitely be back so I can get one of those Bloody's I've heard so much about. On Opening Day though, serve brunch.“
“This place was excellent. Brisket was on point along with the cowboy beans.Their white bbq sauce is where it’s at with the brisket.Also. Shout out to service. First time here and they were invested in making sure it was a good experience.Nobody is going to leave here disappointed.“
“I've been coming to Salem Gardens since childhood. It's a good neighborhood place to get a bite to eat and spend time with friends. Not fancy, just a placeI've known about forever, wish I still lived nearby.Parking: Good sized parking lot and if that fills up there is on street parking too“
“Love the food fries hot and good and the sandwich mmm good first time u have been there I'm going back like I tell my kids don't knock it till you try itParking: It's really hard to find a parking spot just where they locatedKid-friendliness: Family can go dine in if they choose but they are respectful, generous,and kind they can get busy“
“Came here for restaurant week and had the Honey-Chipotle BBQ burger, gorgonberry pecan salad, and peach white chocolate bread pudding for dessert. Salad was great, burger was good, and the bread pudding was ok. Service was fantastic, and it was nice enough to eat on their patio. Great spot to stop in for some American style cuisine.“
“My friends and i came in for a birthday with 16 people and had Sher as our waitress and had the best experience ever. Food was so good and huge portions and the drinks were so good too. Vibe was fun and everyone took great care of us! Shoutout to Sher and Yardhouse 10/10“
“Pinky's was great. Friendly familiar faces who actually care about what they are cooking and serving. All of the food was great and we had enough for leftovers which is always my favorite. If you need a colossal pancake, this would be the place for that! Glad to have somewhere good to eat close to home.“
