“Nice restaurant for a great bite. The spicy pomalo was sweet with a very mild bite. Brown Dog latte was a decent brew. Had the pan-seared salmon with risotta and prosciutto - divine! Absolutely a show stopper. Also had a pleasant atmosphere. I came to have dinner and read a book and this was a really nice spot for all of those things.“

“Awesome kosher bagels and fantastic crew! Read the history on Marx bagels. Kindness and a chance to make oneself better plus the best bagels in the world.“

“The food was tasty and the portion generous. I had a salad with grilled chicken. I asked for no onions and it was made like that.

I used to go to several City Barbecue locations when I lived south of Dayton. I live northeast of Cincinnati OH and this one is probably the closet to me.

One thing I miss is that during the Covid-19 with the government restrictions, many things changed and City Barbecue is more restrictive on their garnishes. I diss the pickle jars that was a favorite thing doe me. I don’t remember what else they offered as garnishes but it seems forever gone.“

“The restaurant appeared clean and everything was tidy. They food was the usual. I had the chicken salad plate with a dinner roll. I just wanted a light summer dinner, my mom had pancakes. But our server was wonderful, so sweet, friendly and attentive“

“Audrey was amazing today, which was only second to the meal!“

“Excellent service and Food. Compliments to the Chef and staff. Had French Pork Chop. Absolutely phenomenal! Fried Green Tomatoes - best I’ve ever had! Martini was also perfect! Very classy place! Highly recommend! Wish there was a location near me!“

“Absolutely fantastic! The burgers and chicken are a 10 and the atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming. An absolute must-visit restaurant.“

“Patrick our server went above and beyond to give my friends and I the most special experience! It was more than just a dinner with friends. It was incredible dishes, out of this world cocktails, and thoughtful details - careful attention to our food allergies, a special birthday celebration, and a beautiful ambiance. Thank you! We’ll be back!“

“My family and I was there today to celebrate my mothers birthday, we ABSOLUTELY loved the food them ribs are to die for, however the memorable part was our server Tonya, I think I’m saying her name right, she was AMAZING I mean she engaged with my mom and son like if she was apart of the Family and THAT took us right away, the only downside was by the time we had received our drinks she was no longer our server which REALLY upset my mother, However the new server was nice she just wasn’t her,,, we LOVE the spot and enjoyed the whole atmosphere and my mother and Family DEFINITELY will be back we just hope that we run into that server Tonya again!!! OUR NEW FAVORITE SPOT!!!“

“Great place for breakfast, lunch & dinner! We enjoyed dining here on Thursday - great food & wine.“

“I had read about The Golden Lamb on Facebook, and was intrigued by its history. They were busy on a Saturday night, but they do take reservations, and their bar is first come-first serve. We had the Cheeseburger, and the Lamb Burger. Both were delicious! The staff was very helpful, and willing to share their stories of the location. The front desk staff told us that we could explore the 3 floors above the restaurant, which is a hotel. They have lots of banquet rooms set up, and a museum with glass to look into some of the preserved rooms. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, and the experience!“

“great food and very nice service!!“

“This was my first time at Clyborne's. The restaurant was alot bigger than I expected. The staff was very friendly. The menu was amazing and was surprised that most everything, if not everything, could be made gluten free which was a plus since 3 in our party were gluten intolerant. The food was amazing and came out in a timely manner. There was a mistake with our order, the waitress took it back and was fixed and removed from our bill. I would highly recommend Clyborne's and hope to be going back.“

“The service was excellent, the food was delicious and prices were reasonable. I highly recommend stopping at Lisa's Kitchen for breakfast or lunch.“

“Was looking for a breakfast place, let me tell to you, today we found a great hidden gem. The price was spot on, the portions were great! Staff was super nice and friendly!! Will definitely be back!!“

“Absolutely amazing. Have been here mainly for the gyro platters but they have other good items as well. Both carry out and dine in are available.“

“Our server Gold was absolutely fabulous! The food and ambience was amazing but she blew us away!! It was our first time trying Alara, but definitely coming back again, she was knowledgeable , attentive, and sweet—if you dine here ask for Gold!“

“This is happily the monthly fallback Go-To for my wife and I. The employees are professional, food is tasty and consistent, seasoned nicely. Comes out fast. I can always depend on this place for a quick dining experience. I would like to see more new menu options more often, but perfectly happy with what they have. The ONLY nit-picking thing is the bakery options. We especially don’t love the cookies, seemingly dry and way too many peanuts on the peanut cookie. It would be nice to have desert options on the menu like a lava cake or a gooey ice cream cookie option. But that aside, high praise!“

“Amazing food and community oriented owners“

“I love this place Autumn and Kristen are the best bartenders I've ever had!! The food is top notch too!“

“My son & I, from the Columbus area, were in Milford at dinner time. Not knowing what was available near our location, he looked at what was in the area. This was the only place that was different. He had the mushroom Swiss burger, I had the smallest burger; we both had coleslaw. The burgers were delicious! Being hand-pattied was the special touch, as most come pre-formed. We were seated immediately around 6:00 on a Friday evening. Our waitress was prompt in taking and delivery, attentive without hovering. This was a great dining experience!“

“It’s been a looooong time since everything I’ve ordered at a restaurant was perfect. Mussels were the best I’ve EVER had. Queso was sublime. I was stuffed by the time our entrees arrived but I kept eating because it was the f$&king bomb. I had the New York strip and it was perfect. We don’t normally visit the same restaurant twice since there are so many options in SW Ohio but we just might have to come back to this one. And the service was impeccable as well btw.“

“Tasting and food was great. Also, service at tasting bar and dining table was great.“

“Best breakfast place in the area. Coffee is awesome and the service cannot be beat!“

“Our teachers and staff were so grateful for the coney bar generously donated and catered by Skyline! Pick up of the large order was very organized, fresh, and put into my car by your friendly staff in minutes! Thank you for making your community feel special and appreciated! We highly recommend their catering!!“

“My favorite restaurant!!! Been going here for 40 years. Best gravy cheese fries in the world. Best double deckers money can buy.“

“I've lived across the street for two years now. Parkside opened roughly a year ago with great enthusiasm. Almost immediately the place was packed with a constant stream of people dining, drinking, hanging out on the patio etc.

The food is as great as it gets with a delish cheese burger (try the pimento), guacamole, buffalo spring rolls, & even the salads.
The staff are service industry elites who are use to a high volume & high energy place Parkside has achieved.
The atmosphere is like a busy neighborhood hangout. People bring their dogs and kids to the patio, everyone talks amongst groups, while the inside offers a cozier more calm traditional restaurant area.

On the bar & drinks... Even if you're just there to down a few pints or cocktails after work or there to make some new friends, you never feel like 2nd priority. The bartenders and staff are friendly and efficient and while I personally would like a wider variety of wines, Parkside gets high remarks with choice selection of glass pours, a wide variety of beers, & a exquisitely constructed cocktail menu.

Sadly, I depart the neighborhood next week but Parkside has become a staple of what every place should desire to achieve in Hyde Park. Kudos.

Vegetarian options: Premium salads, guacamole/pimento cheese, and a few other options!“

“Holy cow! I am hesitant to post this because if too many people find out about this place then no one could get in. The service was amazing!!! The food was fu$&ing incredible! I had a mid rare burger add bacon, shrooms, and mayo. When the waitress came back around I actually said it was fu$&ing amazing. Incredible onion rings andmozzarella sticks as well. For a party of four with two appetizers and two Red Claws it was $91 with tip. Go here, have a burger! Demand the onion rings!!!“

“I recently enjoyed the Cincinnati Dinner Train, and it was a great experience! The vintage train cars and delicious meal made for a relaxing evening. While the views weren't spectacular, the charming atmosphere and friendly staff more than made up for it. Highly recommend for a unique night out!“

“Fantastic service from our Server, Danielle and the whole team! I walked out, forgetting my leftovers on the table, but quickly ran back in to get it, but they had already bussed our table. The manager and Danielle were so sweet and accommodating. They made me another plate to take with me! superior customer service from a great restaurant with exceptionally great food.“

“We are from out of town and came in late, trying to find some vegan friendly food but also good for my omnivore partner and it did not disappoint. Sunny greeted us and was friendly and personalizable during our entire dinner. We ordered the Mediterranean veggie wrap and salmon “omega 3” sandwich and it was amazing! The side of vegan Mac and cheese was one of the best vegan Mac I had. Prices were quite low for a restaurant these days, ranging around the $10-$15 range for an entree. We will definitely be back next time we are in town.

Vegetarian options: Vegan options“

“Great food! TheStone Buenaveza Salt & Lime Lager was a great beer!“

“We loved the Beer Battered Fried Pickles, the Garlic Parmesan Boneless Wings were awesome, and my daughter's jaw dropped when she saw the size of the Pretzel appetizer! Large portions and everything was great. Our server was fast and friendly. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.“

“We had crab corn chowder soup and the fried cheese is a mazing with a light beer battered provolone. Must have and are made to order. And let me tell you something. I've lived in NYC, Texas and been many places and I love good food. It was the burgers that made me put them on the must try and they knocked it out of the park. Nice big and juicy burgers with great flavor. Best burger I've had in Ohio! Will definitely be back!“

“Madeira Cafe upgraded the Bacon! Yum! This place is awesome!“

“Nice atmosphere, good food and service. Our server was NyAsia and she did a great job.“

“A true gem in the heart of Ohio. ??“

“I am admittedly not easily impressed, but my son and I had a great experience all around tonight for a quick bite. From the greeting when we walked in, our server Matthew and the food everything was spot on. Tables were being cleaned as people left, the bartenders were wiping down the station, the food came out hot and cooked properly, the employees having a genuine smile. I can honestly say that it was a better experience than I have had at some of the most high end expensive restaurants in Cincinnati. Keep up the great work! Thank you we will definitely be back.“

“We love coming to the Liberty Cooper’s Hawk. A good number of the people who work at the wine tasting are very knowledgeable & have been there for a long time so they know the clientele.“

“Eat here about once a month for lunch while working downtown.

Even if you go right at 12, the line might be out the door, but it moves so fast. Not only the line, but the food as well. You’ll still get your food wicked fast.

It’s always good and always hot. The workers as always nice as well which is a bonus“

“I haven't been to The Chicken in years. I forgot about this hidden gem. Not only is the beer ice cold, and the food amazing, but our service was not notch. I definitely recommend the Philly Cheesesteak Fries. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

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

“Trio is the best! Can't say enough good things about the food and service! Kaitlyn our server is beyond fantastic!“

“Cajun Seafood fettuccine was outstanding!“

“We had P&B for the first time a couple weeks ago. Everything was absolutely amazing. If not the best BBQ I've had it was very close. Between the 4 us we had the pork, brisket, sausage and chicken along with 4 different sides. atmosphere was inviting staff were happy and welcoming food was quick and delicious. I couldn't ask for a better visit. looking forward to my next meal there.“
