“Chat GPT had directed us here on Saturday the 4th. The food was great! My son and I each had the Salmon with Sweet Potato fries. We had both flown in from 2 different states for a couple of attractions. After the Salmon we finished off a huge slice of Carrot Cake. The best I have ever had. Annie M was very attentive, kind and had a very happy face. For everyone, actually. I just wanted to say how pleased and surprised we were with how good everything was. And I also wanted to compliment Annie M.“

Our waitress Cozy, I can't say enough about her. She had the best personality, super sweet and when we had decided what we wanted she definitely told us about our choices, like how they are prepared, what they come with and if she had tried them herself.

“Literally some of the best views in the city !“

“They have the best carrot cake!“

“Great environment with a friendly wait staff“

“Empress chili is where it all started. You have Empress to thank for Cincinnati chili. Had to go to the last remaining one open. Coneys were my favorite menu item. Glad to see chili pizza on the menu and interesting takes on classics like chili and spaghetti coneys. They also had fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and a variety of sandwiches. The building itself was very large inside and very clean. I was surprised how nice it was. Awesome restaurant, definitely check it out and pay your respects to a chili legend.“

“The food is 🔥🔥🔥 I highly recommend it“

“The word café comes from the French word for coffee, and its roots trace back to the Turkish word kahve and Arabic qahwa. Cafés have historically been places for intellectual discussion, art, and revolution!

Whether you have life life-changing discussion or a casual conversation you can do it around some great food. The mozzarella sticks and sweet potato fries with a special dipping sauce is a must. No matter if you have a sandwich, salad, or their famous chili you know it will be good.

Pro tip: After every meal save some room for some of their special seasonal desserts you will thank me.“

“Great food! My only suggestion is to have a website so we can see the every day menu.“

“Everything is AMAZING!!!!“

“Hubby and I visited Cincinnati for the first time (we are from Ontario Canada) and enjoyed touring the Findlay Market. The food display at the Gourmand Group booth was both captivating and attractive. They offered a wide assortment of salads and some were vegan friendly. We both thoroughly enjoyed our food. The bonus was a friendly chat with one of the booth keeper. Highly recommend! (PS. Thanks for that delicious black bean salad!)“

“Great staff! Best TAP selection in Anderson & delicious menu. Also, 50% off wine bottles Monday & Wednesday. Definitely recommend !“

“I love the food, the staff, the atmosphere and the rewards. I just wish that the rewards could include the salads or the price of the coney could be put towards whatever you want to put it to. I'm trying to lose weight and I love the salads and I go 2 or 3 times a week to get them. I end up either giving away or losing out on my free coney.“

“Spare-Time Grill is the definition of a hidden gem. From the outside alone, you can tell it’s something special — that cute, old-school diner vibe with the vintage sign just pulls you in. It feels nostalgic in the best way.

The food absolutely delivered. The burnt goetta was the star of the plate — perfectly crispy on the outside with so much flavor in every bite. The eggs were fluffy, the home fries were seasoned and cooked just right, and those pancakes were golden, buttery perfection. Everything tasted homemade and comforting.

But what really made it stand out was the service. Everyone was so genuinely kind and welcoming — we felt right at home the entire time. It’s the kind of place where you can tell they care about their customers.

Great food, cozy atmosphere, and the sweetest staff. We’ll definitely be back again soon. 💛“

“My daughter and I had brunch here yesterday. How anyone has issues with this establishment’s buffet is beyond me! The salads, breakfast items, fried chicken/cod, roast beef, vegetables, scalloped potatoes, fruit, and dessert? Awesome and the 25 dollar price? Great! We had delicious Bloody Marys and great friendly service!“

“I had the “ In the Beginning “ with a side of fruit. It was well cook and presented.“

“My family goes back 5 generations to this day, with Camp Washington Chili Parlor. I’m a 3rd generation, my children 4th and grandchildren are 5th generations… best Chili in the world to all of us. Every dish you make has always tasted great! Please put. Camp Washington on the map, I’ve even brought gallons of your chili back to Michigan. My husband’s family loves it, and many, many friends do also? If it weren’t for my parents living on Colerain Ave. we would’ve never known, the great taste of your chili and all the ways you use it in meals?“

“The food is delicious and the staff are very friendly and excellent at their job!“

“Attached is a letter submitted to Cracker Barrel in Cold Springs, Ky to express an appreciation for a job well done. Amy, Manager at Cracker Barrel in Cold Springs, Ky impressed us with her friendly demeanor and willingness to take the time to ask our table if the food is to our liking. Outstanding food and staff (Server/Manager) interaction. ( 5 Star) rating re: the excellence in dining atmosphere and quality of food.“

“My experience here was wonderful! Good food, great customer service, and a great atmosphere!!“

“I ordered the Hash which was supposed to be eggs over potatoes and sausage, however there was no sausage. I complained and was brought the sausage separately. Apparently they scoop this up from some premade pan and do not make it to order so you get what you get. For the price I would not order this.“

“The best of all chili parlors in Cincinnati. Meatier chili and better taste. Fast, friendly service. Always a treat!“

“Ribs and green are delicious!!!!“

“We had a great brunch on Sunday on our way out of town . My son has a lot of allergies and they were very accommodating and generally just pleasant people working there !! Will come back anytime I’m in the city“

“I really enjoyed the crisp on my burger. I enjoyed savoring every bite. I regret not getting a double or a triple. Worth the wait. My food wasn’t rushed. Made with care.“

“Just did a to go order, I ordered a Black and Blue burger and small fries. After I get home, low and behold NO BLUE CHEESE on my burger. I expect this from a fast food chain but not this restaurant. Very disappointed. It will be quite a while before I go back. I eat at Wild Mike's once a week. How can you screw something up so easy ?!?!“

“Let me start with saying if you’re looking for good food, good vibes and super service THIS is the place. Also, super conveniently located right off the exit and right next to Trader Joe’s - can we say DOUBLE WIN We swung in just for some brews and bites and hit the jackpot! The band was in full swing - highly recommend checking out Second Take if you’re in the Cinci region - we lucked out and caught the show right as we sat down. Super chill environment too, not overcrowded and our waitress Stevie was PHENOMENAL 👌 Quick to grab our drinks, didn’t forget me when I asked for refills, grabbed our apps out the gate and hooked us on the napkins because ya girl is a messy eater 😆 she even answered my 100 questions about what local brews they offer (which, if this is your forte, def check out their selection - I was impressed) Anywho, 10/10 service, food, atmosphere and generally just a cool spot to check out that’s 15 min from anywhere as soon as you hit the highway in the Queen City 🤙“

“Great hotel bar and restaurant“

“We stopped here after a concert at Riverbend, and it did not disappoint. Really good pizza (we ordered two but I only got a pic of the one) and they were both absolute fire. Our server Ann was awesome, she took good care of us and was fun to talk to. A really great bartender. The other customers around and some off work staff made it such a fun hang. We’ll definitely make this place our after-concerts hang out whenever we come back to town 💜“

“Great food! But no restroom for customer use!“

“I went to Herb and Thelma’s for the first time. It did not disappoint. Very tasty, juicy burgers. Delicious sauerkraut. Manhattan to rival any other Manhattan from an upscale bar. Everyone is friendly. Such a fun atmosphere. Be prepared to be surprised by the food and friendly atmosphere. Cash only.“
