“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“
“Always a vibe , mid day or at night or trivia on Wednesday. An Aperol is my go to but the cocktails are amazing. Make sure to grab some food. The fire pits and the TVs outside are great for baseball and football season. Be sure to add this on your list. It doesn’t disappoint.“
“I’ve been to mid city about 5 times, it was amazing the first time I went and every time I go it gets better. The staff are amazing people! They have nailed both food & service. When you eat here, they make every guest feel special. Just this week I went to a high end restaurant in Cincinnati and was treated like an inconvenience because I had an infant with me. Then I came to mid city and they were so accommodating of the baby. They knew who we were right when we walked in, they gave us a huge table with plenty of space, kept saying how glad they were we came, it was pouring rain outside so they gave us towels to wipe off, they helped us to our table, even helped carry the car seat. That’s how you run a restaurant. There’s a reason they have a 4.9 star rating on Google, it’s because I don’t think 5 star is possible.“

“We haven't had such a fantastic experience in a restaurant in so long, I forgot what it feels like. We were promptly seated by the hostess, and she was friendly. Our waitress was great and was very polite and attentive. I'll never get tired of having a refill for my drink set down in front of me before I have to ask. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, and we enjoyed the decor. I was glad we were almost finished when they sat a couple at the table next to ours, because it is a little close and you're right in each other's conversation. I got the salmon bruschetta to start, and it was so good. Everything tasted so fresh, and the flavors blend beautifully. My girlfriend got the French onion soup, and that looked amazing. She said it tasted really good. We both ordered the filet mignon, and she wanted hers medium rare, and I wanted mine cooked medium. While both steaks were excellent, neither one was cooked as requested, and both were pretty rare. I'm going to let that slide, since everything else was so good. The smoked Gouda Mac and cheese is so damn good, I want the recipe. It's very creamy and delicious. The Brussels sprouts with bacon were excellent and I could eat a bowl of just that. We will definitely be back, and totally understand all the accolades now. Two thumbs up.“
“Out of town visitor and sweet family friends took me to dinner here! We explored many of the menu options but our favorites were the Moroccan spiced broccoli texture and crisp was perfect with the sauce served with it, and Crispy falafel was my favorite dish !Roasted beets & Lebna was also good. We also ordered the potato gnocchi but didn’t get to try it because I filled up on the other dishes that arrived first.Cute vibey atmosphere! Kind service.“
“Please come try this place! The husband and wife team took over the old Ludlow bank and turned it into a food mecca. The Spanish tapas menu allows you to try several small bites and the flavors are amazing. The wine menu is wonderful. And the atmosphere makes you feel like you’re in a small cafe in Spain. The great thing is - it’s just off the I-75 Fifth St exit - a skip and a jump over the bridge.“

“Amazing wine selection and the truffle potatoes were delicious - I could've eaten several plates of them. Service was great as well, but it's very noisy inside, difficult to have a conversation. I would go again and try sitting outdoors.“
“Amazing! We had the Cuban (so delicious) and torta carnitas. We also had El Cubo that came with a bottle of champagne and 3 juices (pineapple, orange & strawberry). It’s so bright and beautiful inside. We can’t wait to go back again and again to try all their dishes! We had the best Sunday dateKid-friendliness: Perfect place for a brunch and mimosa or a family day out“
“If you haven't been here then you're missing out. The cocktails are expertly crafted and the entire staff is spirited about your experience and the drinks they're making. I genuinely disliked gin before I tried this place out, and after a crash course and tasting different types, I now confidently order gin cocktails knowing I'm going to enjoy them. They have a great selection of small plates that are always delicious. Both menus rotate frequently, so I rarely find myself getting the same thing. The bands they host are always excellent and the volume never bothers me. Although not advertised, they also do a discounted menu on Wednesdays!The food is served tapas style, in small portions, often with international flavors. If I'm going for a full dinner, I usually order 3 items or sharing 4-5 plates with another person - which is like half the menu. The Caesar salad is a menu staple and my favorite in the whole city. Whatever meatballs that they have are always good, too.Not only is this a great date-night place, it's a great spot for large groups, too. The owners were very accommodating for the larger parties I've hosted and it's plenty of space for other larger parties that I've attended. On a few occasions, I've witnessed a couple small birthday parties at the same time as there have a band playing, and it didn't feel crowded.Vegetarian options: There are usually vegetarian options on the menu, and occasionally vegan options. Because of the international focus, their vegetarian options have more complex flavors and sustenance than your alternative bars/restaurants with 'vegetarian' options, like salad or pasta with veggies.“
