“We hosted a baby shower at Bloom Room and it was fantastic. Planning was a super easy process, they were very responsive by email, and it was extremely straightforward. We actually had to reschedule the date because of a snow storm, and the Bloom Room was so helpful and accommodating of the situation. The actual event was wonderful, food was incredible. The space is perfect as well. Highly recommend!!“

“went in there with Charlie and we had such a relaxing time. the staff was quite knowledgeable and I could tell had a passion for wine as I do. highly recommend“

“Rosemary’s Bar at High St. might be the best kept secret in Cincinnati. Tucked inside a beautiful boutique shop, this small but mighty bar lets you sip craft cocktails while you browse — and trust me, the drinks are worth stopping for. Their espresso martini is legitimately one of the best in the city, and the Paloma is equally impressive. If you haven’t stumbled across this hidden gem yet, consider this your sign to go find it — Rosemary’s is the kind of discovery you’ll want to share with everyone you know.“

“A hidden gem on Garfield Place . We decided to throw out the Hyde park restaurants and try something new . The Mezze Board was fantastic with all of the Mediterranean dips and veggies , The Shrimp Cossoult is to die for . The braised lamb /risotta/feta explodes with every bite. The best of all is that it was our first time dining and and I felt like family with the service from Nimo and Bryce , Coming back next week for the Swordfish . 6 stars !!!!!“

“What an amazing place to hold birthday party and a night out! Over the weekend we hosted my husband’s birthday party at Ripples event space. They were amazing from the service to the food and they were very accommodating to all of our requests! Trish and Matt did an amazing job with service and then everyone kept going on about the food! Way to go!!! Thank you so much for an amazing night out!“

“Enjoyed our stay here! The entire hotel was very cool with all the decorations and artwork. We loved how the room was decorated and that it was colorful instead of a standard, boring hotel room. Everything was very clean! And all the employees were friendly and helpful, especially Derek!“

“Nice quaint pizza spot. Good food“

“Whoever the bartender/mixologist was on Friday, January 24th…shout out! I always usually only ever order Expresso Martinis. It is always rare that certain establishments even offer/make them. However, this was one the absolute best one I have ever had…and I have had MANY!! lol! I had 3 that night and each one was amazing! I will be back for more!“

“Amazing service at 20 Brix! Clay, the owner, gave excellent wine recommendations and really knows his stuff. The atmosphere is classy and elegant—perfect for indoor or outdoor dining. Highly recommend!“

“Wow, another GREAT dinner here with William Howard being my new all time host extrodonaire. I my new mantra at work is be like William. Couldn't possibly have been better. THANK YOU!

Maggie took OUTSTANDING care of me with friendliness and great insights on food and wine options. Fantastic experience after a couple of long work days. Thank you!

Filet and mushrooms were beyond good. So tender and tasty.

And then these desserts, oh wow! PERFECT

This will definitely be on my short list of places to eat when in town.“

“My husband and I stopped in today for lunch after seeing it recommended on Google. The fresh focaccia with olive oil and balsamic were hands down the best I’ve ever had. My husband enjoyed his wedge salad and we split a highly delicious pepperoni pizza. Mike and Maddie were so welcoming! We even got to enjoy their brand new outdoor umbrellas which gave such a nice touch to their outdoor dining patio. We will definitely be back sooner rather than later! 🥰“

“One of my favorite places to relax!!! Beautiful ambiance, amazing cocktails, fun staff and clientele. A true hidden gem. HIGHLY recommend!!!“

“The food was amazing! Eli’s BBQ and Pesto Plus was the best pizza I’ve had in a very long time! It’s a must eat“

“Had a wonderful experience at Tela! our server, Arlena was fabulous too.“

“I hosted a corporate event at Revel. Not only is the venue fun, with a great vibe, but the staff is so easy to work with. It was the lightest event planning load I can recall. They are pros with their wine tasting plus a tour. Now this is not a large operation. The tour is simply a trip down to the basement. But the founder Anthony made a regular basement feel charming and impressive. Would recommend and host there again.“

“Anjou is a beautiful cocktail bar in the dainty neighborhood of Walnut Hills. On a warm evening, Anjou props open their windows making the whole place hip and relaxing. I quite enjoyed their light and refreshing ube cocktail. Paid parking can be conveniently on the same street.“

“Chris was our server in the bar area today and he was great! Attentive and let us chat while keeping our glasses full. Food was fantastic! Ordered the white wine chicken and the caramelized grilled sea scallops. Delicious and recommend both. Dishes are seasonal so the menu changes regularly. Beautiful atmosphere and very pretty bar area. Small patio area to sit outside or inside with the windows open.“

“The best cheese I’ve eaten! I live 100 miles away but stop in every time I’m in Cincy. I buy it at Christmas for neighbors gifts and they look forward to it every year.“

“Went here to actually get photos for a college project, a jazz themed session, the staff were so welcoming and understanding! This tavern is so cozy and unique. I love this hidden little gem! Would return here as a customer due to how polite the staff were.“

“This establishment is top notch in every way! I recommend the “Kyle” and the “Yolanda Mai Tai” 😊“

“1215 is one of the best coffee shops I’ve had the pleasure of frequenting, and I make it a habit to go here at least once a week. It’s in the heart of OTR and is super convenient for anyone in that area. I’m on a first name basis with the baristas and ordering food/coffee from them feels less transactional and more human. They sell Deeper Roots coffee which is top notch, and I could drink their house blend for the rest of my life. They have a really solid selection of teas too. The place is not at all pretentious, and has a regular clientele that is relaxed and friendly - and the place is bustling but not too busy. The music they play is at the right volume and is well-curated - Americana, folk, 2000s indie, soft rock, blues. Around 5-6pm the coffee shop vibe slowly turns into a romantic and cozy wine bar with live music on some nights. The flowers on the tables are replaced by candles and the lights are dimmed. While I’m usually busier in the evenings, this tempts me to stay all day. Fantastic place that I cannot recommend enough!“

“This place is in my neighborhood and I can't say enough good things about it. I feel like it remains an undiscovered gem. The people are friendly and fabulous, the wines are terrific (get a flight!), and they offer upscale & thoughtful light bites. My husband and I sometimes come here before a dinner out or even make it dinner. Laid-back, high-quality, and everything you want out of a Cincinnati establishment.“

“We had a wonderful private party for my husbands retirement. Everything was wonderful from the environment , food and drinks! Highly recommend!“

“Found this wine bar last night. Great music and atmosphere. Friendly staff and musicians. We heard the group Experience. They were stellar. The shrimp was excellent. Will definitely visit again.“

“This is a hidden gem. We visited for the first time today. The owners are charming, witty and fun. The wines are smooth and delightful! Visit soon.“

“Stopped in for beers while visiting Second Sunday on Main after seeing 4 hot guys in a row go inside lol. Very fun and friendly neighborhood bar. Kyle the bartender is awesome! Although I live in Hyde Park I’ll definitely be upping my OTR game and visiting again“

“Amazing food, beverage, service & atmosphere!!!“

“As usual we have a great time dining at Firebirds Mason location. I was with a friend whom has a garlic allergy and the Waitress and Chef were so accommodating. You could tell it was very important to them to help her with her food selection. When her meal was brought to her she was very pleased and stated how delicious it was. The rest of us ordered the Rib special which as always was delicious. I also appreciated the help the Waitress gave me on my Wine selection.“

“I never have a bad time at World Glass. The drinks are great, trivia and karaoke nights are killer, but the real reason that keeps me coming back is the bartender Amber. She IS World Glass.
I absolutely recommend this bar to anyone that wants bomb cocktails, fun events, and a bartender with a great personality.“

“Perfect atmosphere, classy, elegant, awesome drinks, the food is delicious, and the service is exceptional. I love this place ❤️“

“Coffee and raspberry tart were delicious“

“Great place! Kim and Peter make everyone feel welcome.“

“Nice very relaxing 😌 We had a great time .“

“Just moved here, one of the two coffee places that have been so super duper great. Friendly vibes, fantastic iced caramel latte (if you can’t get that right I’m not coming back lol, it’s so easy) but they did, and it’s so good and such a friendly sweet barista. Delicious!! Thank you 💛“

“Wonderful group of ppl with some awesome pizza and calzones. Only thing I wish they also had would be some wings but other than that great experience with my coworkers from Central Window Cleaning out of Columbus“

“Everything about our experience at Forno Osteria was terrific. The Caesar salad was really good. We sampled a pizza, Bolognese, Papardelle and the pork Milanese. All delicious. Our waitress Chloe a UC student was informative and friendly. Whatever you pay her is under her value. A really good Italian restaurant. Manny “

“Stopped in today for Brunch, everything was amazing as always! Maeve was the bartender and I could see she had some guests that thought they were the only people who mattered. She smiled and was very professional. I tip my hat to her for having to deal with entitled people and not even flinch! We always try to get out to Loveland for brunch whenever possible. The staff is wonderfully knowledgeable, food is always delicious, and let us not forget the remarkable cocktails! They even have tasty ones for those who do not drink alcohol! I have to say Tano is my go to place!“

“Friendly service and great atmosphere.“

“What a CUTE coffee shop 😍😍 The inside is absolutely darling and has plenty of space to sit and enjoy your coffee and breakfast. We opted to sit outside on the patio and enjoy the beautiful weather. Super dog friendly which is always great to see. And lots of breakfast options. We got the quinoa bowl for a gluten free option and it was so good. The sausage in it was very light and everything else was very filling. They also had some fun gluten free muffins and a s'mores bar that was super tasty!! Definitely recommend if you live in the area or are just visiting 👌“

“Excellent 1st experience with Jess as our server. Our family was celebrating 3 birthdays and we wanted for nothing. Jess suggested dishes that mesmerized the children with amazing presentations! Food was to die for. Thank you, Jess, for making our first experience perfect. We will be back!“

“My girlfriend and I really enjoy the atmosphere and music at Nostalgia. I like the diverse crowd; a little bit of everybody there. Younger, older, and business people all enjoying good music and good vibes. For the record Im 49 yr old Blk male.“

“I absolutely Love the sushi at this place. It's so good. Although the restaurant itself is pretty small the flavor in the food is huge! The staff is very friendly. The chair are kinda tattered and beat up. It could definitely do with some new furniture (chair for the tables at the minimum). But if you're willing to deal with the lack luster atmosphere, the food is definitely worth it.“

“We recently ordered from The Park Pour for our holiday staff party. The food was wonderful, as always. Beautiful salads, deviled eggs & more. Ordering was easy & their team is always helpful. One of my very favorite restaurants- highly recommend!“
