Unless we just happened to be lucky enough to order the 2 best items on the menu, this restaurant offers a host of solid options. The brisket was incredibly tender and flavorful, and the crab linguine had a wonderful variety of flavor and textures, with just the right amount of heat. Our first visit, but we will be back!

This restaurant has a great vibe with amazing custom cocktails and delicious food to match. My guest and I had the steak, hummus appetizer, red beans and rice, and dessert. Everything was excellent and the service was very fast. Two different servers checked on us several times during dinner. They had live music later in the night which made for an fun evening. The lounge area in the back is a great place to hang out after dinner. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who has not been there yet!

The menu options are orginial and unique. It was a fun dining experience that is out of the box for Cincinnati. All the entrees were excellent, and the desserts were outstanding. We look forward to returning soon.

Loved the ambience: furniture, lighting, leaf murals, bar. The food we had was different and delicious (Ropa Doblado, Queso with Charred corn). We were thrilled to find the Croatian wine we recently drank on a trip there (Plavac Mali - a mild red wine ). We felt the portions were a bit small for the price. Looking forward to returning to try more of their unique menu!

The NY Strip was ok. Ordered a medium rare and it came out more like medium well. I originally asked to sit at the bar and the bartender lady said she would be too busy….weird. The atmosphere seems more geared toward an older crowd (maybe 50+), so it just wasn’t really my vibe. Probably fine for a quiet night out.

This place is delicious. Second trip here and was not disappointed. There was a band playing outside for a town event and they just added to the great experience. Highly recommend trying out this place.

I prefer Columbia steakhouse on South limestone because it feels like a comfortable old shoe. The original Columbia steakhouse, complete with basketball players’ pictures on the walls from the 1970s. It has a lot of character.. I have been coming to Columbias off and on since the 1980s, as I now live out of town, but always make a point to go there when I am in town. The nighthawk special is still a treat and a great deal. The Diego salad is wonderful for a simple, flavorful light salad. Just don’t have your cholesterol checked for a spell after dining there!
Our service was outstanding the manager came to our table and described the dishes and the cocktails with such enthusiasm we could all feel his passion for what he does and the experience he provides we will be back many times and we want to especially enjoy the weekend music Such an asset to our local cuisine choices

We came in months ago and got to talk with the owners and our waitress Amelia, they not only remembered who we were but also remembered the fact that our friends were getting married, it's little things like this that are amazing. Also a huge bonus on the amazing food and specials to change things up as well!

We sat at the bar, which was fun, and the bartenders were both great! The food was insanely delicious, and the ambiance was so nice with the big doors open to the sidewalk. Loved it!

Subpar food. The salad was nothing more than shredded lettuce and some celery. And maybe two and a half diced tomatoes. Baked potato was actually the best part of the dinner. (Well the top half) the bottoms half along with the steak was submerged in what they advertised as “garlic butter” but had the taste and consistency of a canola oil. Absolutely ruined the meal. The fountain drinks were even bad. Very minimal flavoring. This was a first and a LAST time visit to this establishment. Also whoever the old white haired woman that looks like a used Qtip is is beyond rude. I have never seen someone working in customer service that goes to another booth and talks about a room full of people that are patronizing her establishment. Typical “old person” behavior though.
