“There are so many good things about this place. It is comfortable and has a neighborhood charm. That said the food and service are of such high quality that Lonely Pine is appropriate for any level of celebration. Top it off, price is more than reasonable. The owner’s passion carries through every aspect of this gem. Make a reservation, you will be glad you did.”
“The food is amazing, they have a large wine and spirt offering. The staff are always courteous, knowledgeable and very accommodating. Casual dining with an upscale feel.”
“Delicioso postre todo riquísimo y la atención de primera calidad”

“I’ve been here quite a few times now and I just love it!! It’s a tried and true for me! I came here for the first time in Winter of this year and can’t count how many times I’ve been here since.
The ramen is AMAZING. I won’t lie… the ramen, sake, and cocktails are the only things on the menu I’ve tried so far. Everything looks and sounds amazing, but I tried the ramen the first time I went and loved it so much, so usually when I am going there, I’m craving that specifically. I LOVE THEIR TONKOTSU WITH BOK CHOY AND THE CHILI OIL ON THE SIDE SO I CAN ADD IT TO TASTE!! They also have some good sake and drink options! They definitely need to reprint the menu soon because there’s a good amount that I order and they are out of or don’t carry, but it’s not a huge deal. They just need to update it since it’s a reoccurring issue!
The servers are all so lovely and kind. They are attentive, helpful, personable, and care to remember you. I really appreciate all of the interactions I’ve had with them, their kind suggestions, and their conversation!
The place is very lovely inside, though still casual and relaxed! I love Zundo!!”
“Food and presentation was top notch! Everything was so fresh and perfectly seasoned. Walked away full but not feeling weighed down. Service was fantastic as was the atmosphere. 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 for me!!”
“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 !!!!!”

“The food was fantastic, the restaurant has special Macedonian wines and meals that you won’t find anywhere else in here. The staff are very friendly and welcoming which makes the atmosphere warm and calm. Definitely a must-visit if you’re around Ohio.”
“I decided to visit over a lunch. Great food and recommendations from the staff on making an extremely tasty rice bowl. Great service and delicious food.”
“I absolutely love this little place. Please visit often so they can stay in business! I I had the mango pomelo warm—it was both soothing and delightful. The owner suggested it and he didn’t steer me wrong!”
“I cannot recommend this hidden gem enough! They will never disappoint, when I tell you everything is hot and fresh I mean just that! I can’t keep my food long enough to even take a picture lol but the servings be serving and the fish be fishing if you know what I mean! (Actually have meat!) if you love real soul food you need to run here! And the staff is super kind :)”
“We had dinner at the downtown location this evening to celebrate my son’s graduation from the military, and leaving to report to his first assignment. From the time we were seated, to the time we left, several staff members came over to shake his hand and thank him for his service, even the General Manager. We always receive exceptional care from any Jeff Ruby’s establishment, but are so grateful to our amazing server Peter along with all of the other staff who took the time to make our family feel so special. We will support this business until the end of time! Thank you for being such a wonderful place to visit!”
“Omg! This place is a must! From the delicious apps to the mouthwatering Baileys chocolate dessert this is a definite 10/10!! Customer service was top tier!! We drove from Ga to Michigan and back and saw this spot on TT so we stopped and we are so glad we did!! Kudos to the bartender, server, and chef!!”
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cafe Mediterranean Hyde Park with Heather Raake Bates , and it was truly an exceptional culinary experience. The meal was outstanding, and the service was superb. I highly recommend visiting this establishment, as it is a hidden gem that warrants a return visit.”

“Trophy pizza is amazing. The staff is great and the pizza is 10 out of 10!!! Make sure you try the garlic knots!!! They are delicious!! I just had knee surgery and Trophy pizza was our first stop before we headed home. The staff was awesome and helped me get out the door while my husband got the car. I even got a sweet treat to enjoy while I heal. If you haven't tried this pizza you are missing out. Stop in enjoy great pizza and an awesome staff!!”

“My wife and I went to this restaurant today, after a great recommendation from one of my employees. This place is absolutely amazing! The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the service is completely top notch! Literally better service than I have received probably ever, and we go to A LOT of restaurants. Literally, my wife’s napkin fell to the ground and after I picked it up, the lady who was the host to us seen it and brought her a new one. Drinks did not run dry, and every single member of the staff was helping out and conversing with us. The owner and chef even came out to shake my hand. What an absolute gem in Cincinnati. This is a place NOT to miss out on. And don’t forget to order the cornbread! Hands down the best I have ever tasted. We left and wished we were hungry again and could turn around and go back inside.”

“From the moment we made our reservation, we were treated to a hospitality and warmth sorely lacking in today's world. While we went at noon, the music and decor were as relaxing as an evening or even late- night event. Our server Simeon was professional and committed to make our meal a memorable one. At our request, he described different dishes, telling us what he recommended and what to expect. He was attentive without hovering. The food was as outstanding as was the service. While the shrimp toast appetizer, Wong's chicken, and Clay pot were delicious, beautifully prepared, we were overwhelmed by the presentation, taste, and experience of the coconut bread pudding with rum sauce. We will go again soon..”
“Our server was amazing and very attentive. The service was unobtrusive, which was appreciated as well. At our server's suggestion, we ordered the cod with a brioche crust. My dining companion and I agree that we have never had a better piece of fish. It was delicious! We'll be back!”
“I was in town and Agave & Rye was recommended to me. I stopped in on 9/10/22 talked with Emma the hostess and explained I was having a few friends to stop by not sure how many between five and ten. She accommodated me at the high rise table back by the windows which was perfect for my nine guest. Sarah was our excellent server, she continually checked in on us even thou I saw her working outside as well. Our drinks were awesome and our food was really good. Next time I am in town I will definitely return here.”
“As I’m writing this review I’m still in shock! I’m in Cincinnati on business and I was craving Italian. I can’t believe there’s not a line around the block just for the meatballs! My family owned an Italian seafood restaurant in NJ for 26 years and I can say without hesitation the meatballs here are the best west of Arthur Ave in the Bronx! My NJ mind is blown!”
“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.”
“This is a great place with so much history! the waitress, Jasmine, was friendly and did a great job!”
“I was so happy when I saw you all are on Postmates! I haven't had your food since I stopped working upstairs. Everything was delicious! Thank you!”

“I never frequently went to White castle's but after coronavirus came out and everybody lockdown it seems like food has just gotten really bad but to my surprise White castle's is still the same I think a lot more people are going to ReDiscover how good White castle's ”
“Stopped by yesterday. Kim and everyone were very helpful. Picked a a favorite that’s served at the Netherland as well as a Gautaman blend. Both are very flavorful and full bodied. Used my Cuisinart pour over machine and a 15:1 ratio. Will definitely be back. Thank you”
“Stopping here on weekday mornings before heading into the office has become part of my routine, and it's usually a smooth, pleasant start to the day. The coffee is consistently good and the team behind the counter is generally attentive, though I regularly ask for my sandwich without mayo. Unfortunately, it seems to slip through more often than not, and I end up with mayo on it anyway despite specifying otherwise at checkout. It's a minor inconvenience given how enjoyable the rest of the experience is, but it's happened enough times that I now peek inside before leaving the counter. Just something to keep in mind if you're particular about your order!”
“Today, 11.02.2021, a friend and l were in search of good breakfast food. Before dropping her off, we stopped at the Waffle House on Delhi Pike. The employees at this establishment were some of the warmest and friendliest group of people l have met since COVID. Fast service, our waiter Dante explained how we were able to mix and match the breakfast we had chosen. With the turn of our head, our meals were before us. The grits were freshly made, the toast was to a perfection with butter melted, everything about the meals were on point. The staff keep the restaurant clean. On their idle time they were cleaning the grill and washing down the floor, no one was standing around on their phones. I give the Waffle House ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
“This dunkin does an amazing job especially considering they’re still fairly new. I went on vacation to Flordia last month & was really missing this location while I was gone. The workers are always welcoming & the drive thru rarely has much of a line. Overall great service & coffee!!”
“Gas has been the cheapest of most of the places nearby. Food is pretty decent. Staff are always nice. My only problem is a lot of times they'll just randomly not have buns available. Don't know if whoevers in charge just doesn't feel like making anything with a bun or are just bad at ordering inventory.”
“One of the most horrible Shell, the manager has ulgy attitude, they feel like you are not a coustomer Which a Senior, building brings mostly business in that area that been said N&I. Just down the street which is more a distances for some seniors, they gave been bard out for saying respect me or giving it back to thug reception with attitude, yep!Shell on Gilbert, Boo! I've moved to Reading Road, forsake of Respect”
“We went for my birthday to check out the place. Good food and top notch service.”

“We drive the hour for their donuts as they are just that good! The chocolate icing is the best around. Last Friday I got to try the cherry bombs and apple cinnamon sugar donut and those are also so amazing. We’ve had their bread and danishes in the past and guess what? Also amazing 😊 only place we get donuts at anymore”
“This is a must visit bakery! The product is simply amazing and it is clear that the team here takes great pride in it (as they deservedly should). Every time I visit the area I make it a point to stop here - even if it is out of my way - as I am ALWAYS delighted with the tasty treats. You should too.”
“You need to go today! This place has great food & the owners/employees are such nice folks. I try to stop by any time I am driving by. I do mostly carry out, but you can eat there. I understand their catering is also so good!!! I love supporting good local businesses...”
“The only complaint I have with the crumbl cookie in anderson was that they are closed on Sunday and I didnt know that lol. I drove 40 mins to be disappointed. But that was my fault and nothing to do with them. The store is always clean the staff are always pleasant. 5 stars”
“Thanks HPF for the delicious platter for our Easter guests! Everyone LOVED the club & Italian sandwiches! 😋”
“I just wanted to let you know that my mom had a hankering for your spinach quiche pie. She's always busy and doesn't think things through sometimes. She threw the highly coveted quiche pie in her handbag and ran home to do some things before having a moment to eat the pie. Whatever. I saw the pie in her handbag, grabbed it and ran into the bushes to eat it as fast as I could. If the speed and accuracy of my devouring the highly coveted spinach ricotta pie is any indication of the number of stars this review requires, it is certainly a five out of five. Signed, Franki, the little black scruffy dog with a face (and sneaky fox vibe) only my mother could love. Thanks Coffee Emporium!!!”
“Food was great. Service was quick and friendly. I wish Cincinnati had more Greek restaurants. I live in Fairfield and we just don’t have any authentic Greek food. I’m very excited my new office is only 4 minutes down the road. I plan on not packing my lunch as much and taking some time away from work. The staff all seemed very friendly and the servers were very kind to children while I was there. I want to bring my family here but the hours won’t allow it because of work and school.”
“Benson Paige is a pup who has lived in a shelter for a whole year. Today is his last day on earth since he is being humanely euthanized tomorrow. A foster took him out and spent some time at Bloc, so benson got to finally cuddle up on a couch. He finally got to eat a whole plate of eggs, a plate of bacon and experience the good life- something he never got to experience before. Stevie the lead barista was incredibly kind and compassionate over the phone with me while I tried to coordinate getting benson a special treat and helped me make sure the foster & benson were taken care of and that he got to experience love. There are no words to describe my gratitude to them and thank them for providing a place for benson to be safe and loved. ❤️❤️❤️ can not recommend them enough for their customer service”

“I ordered a Caramel Pound Cake for my Hubby’s birthday. We celebrated at Longhorn and everyone in the restaurant wanted a slice of that cake! It was moist, buttery, and delicious! We also had chocolate strawberries, and snickers strawberries. The strawberries were sweet, and we really enjoyed them. Our guest was amazed at the taste of all the desserts. I encourage anyone who needs a delicious dessert to order from Shanassweettreats. You will be happy you did! My Dad is 91 years old, he wants a Blackberry Cobbler. That’s my next order!!”
“My husband and I love Oliver's Desserts, so it was a no brainer that they would do our wedding cake. It was beautiful and delicious!! We got SO. MANY. COMPLIMENTS from our guests. You are so missing out if you don't chose them for wedding desserts, and honestly, that choice would be incorrect. 🤷♀️”
“Today I traveled from Florida to Cincinnati. My sister and I wanted to get a bite to eat . We didnt want to get fast food that you could get on every corener . While leaving the airport I Googled restaurants close by . There were several to choose from however, we decided on Pig Candy BBQ this restaurant did not disappoint. The food was amazing ( we had the special which was the brisket sandwich) this sandwich was very tender and full of flavor. If you are just traveling through or a local or feel up to a drive this is definitely worth your time .The staff knows what customer service means . All around Great food and service. A MUST STOP....... THANK YOU !!”
“absolutely delicious experience. The conveyor belt featured a wide variety of appetizers, salads, fresh fruit, sushi, nigiri, and dessert. our waitress was super attentive and extremely polite. The atmosphere is very fun and entertaining as you watch the conveyor belt, the trams on top of the belt, and the robots delivering hot and fresh food. our waitress was on top of our drinks and explained the iPad and the conveyor belt system very well. Will definitely be back. for the two of us with a generous tip, it was under $50.”
“my wife and I went to Thai Lom Cuisine today... we had a spicy eggplant and beef dish as well as each having green chicken curry spice level 4. I can say is the portions are generous, the food is fantastic, and the service is wonderful-smiling courteous staff... I doubt there is a better Thai restaurant in Cincinnati. This place is nestled in the wedding District in Reading on Benson Road. We will become regulars very soon. 5 stars!! their Curry is Silky Smooth flavorful as close to perfect as you can get.”

Fine Dining
“Went here for a date night and left so full and happy!! Our server, Jenny, took such good care of us. It was nice to have the menu and specials explained to us in details and got a lot of recommendations from her, too. We ordered the crab cakes, mussels, lamb rack, their steak and crab special for the night. Everything was cooked to perfection with right seasonings and temp. We really enjoyed the special-the filet mignon was soooo tender and the crab was sweet! It was cool to have a candle lit butter and Cajun spiced lemon on the side for the crab. We were so stuffed at the end but couldn’t help but get dessert to go. The crème brûlée NY cheesecake is SUCH a treat and I’m so glad we got it. Service was 10/10, would recommend everyone to go here for nicer dinners.”
“Spoon Fulla Sugar Cake Design exceeded every expectation! From the moment I reached out, their communication was warm, professional, and incredibly helpful. They took the time to understand my vision and then brought it to life with creativity and flawless attention to detail. The design was elegant, clean, and beautifully crafted, showing real artistry. And the taste? Even better. We had people going back for seconds (and asking for the bakery's name!). What truly sets Spoon Fulla Sugar apart is their passion. You can tell they love what they do, and it shines through in both their customer service and their work.”
“Everything, from being seated, beautiful dining room, table setting, knowledgeable waiter and backup servers. Manager introduced himself and asked if all was well. I ordered the 12oz NY Strip, medium rare, with the biggest baked potato I’ve ever had. Everything was timely and enjoyed the experience with fellow employees. We were in town for a conference and will definitely remember the wonderful meal we all enjoyed. John McCabe Fairport NY 14450”
“We ate at Prime tonight and it was over the top. The filet was the best steak I’ve ever tasted. The Half Baked Cookie à la mode was delicious and worth every calorie. The service was impeccable. Even the ladies room had layers of unexpected extra offerings that let you know the leadership of Prime is dedicated to making sure customers are very well cared for. We will definitely be back.”
“I am such a huge fan of the food and service. As soon as you walk in, you know you’re in a quality restaurant. As soon as the food comes out, you know you made the right decision. Everything on the menu is prepared to my liking. I can’t say enough good things. Travis and Charlotte took excellent care of me. I will absolutely be back.”
“Everything! My personal all time favorite, their Triple Mousse Cake; dense thin choc cake bottom with inches of chocolate mousse; dark, light and white chocolate. To die for! I order it at Grove Park Grill. You do not share this dessert, you have it all to yourself😂💕”
“Me pareció pésimo el cobro, hice un consumo de 400.00 y me hicieron pagar una gratificación de 60.00 dólares diciendo que ya estaba computarizado el porcentaje de la propina y que eso es porque cosumi más de 250, obvio que dejaríamos propina pero que me pongas el monto me pareció un robo, NO VOLVEREMOS..”

“What one of our team members says: "Milkman in OTR is the go-to spot for the best smash burgers in Cincinnati, and it's so much more than a burger joint! They serve alcoholic/non-alcoholic milkshakes and slushies, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, and more! Plus, the cozy retro vibe of the restaurant makes it such a fun spot for date night or hanging with friends. We highly recommend trying their blue raspberry soft serve!"”
“Great experience at this restaurant! The service was excellent — everyone was very welcoming, professional, and polite. As a first-time customer in the Cincinnati area, I was greeted warmly and treated with great hospitality.
The food came out hot, the seasoning and spice were on point, and the drinks were amazing. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying.
I would definitely recommend this place to everyone, especially my fellow Caribbean truckers. If you're in the Cincinnati area and having a hard time finding good Caribbean food while you're on the road, this is definitely a place you should check out!”

“This place has the best Korean BBQ in the area. I only wish they had honey dew boba. That would seal the deal. But still our first pick always over others.”
“Wonderful food and service!! We sat at the bar and Bryan waited on us and was more than accomodating!!!”
“absolutely the best cornbread I've ever had!!!! service was outstanding food was even better”
“This place is a 10/10 y'all. When we lived in Cincy we found this gem, and I would dream about their food until I could go back (weekly!). Now that we live back in Buffalo, it's the number 1 place I recommend to all people visiting from out of town. (True story, the amount of Bills fans I have sent here is unmatched- do you need a Buffalo sponsor?) Their specials are always a hit, their burger... well I hope its my last meal because I would die happy. The atmosphere is just so good too (Don't forget to hit the button in the bathroom!). Our last trip in we talked to Stuart for a long time, and enjoyed every minute... even got to do a PB shot (unreal!). Come visit Buffalo Stuart! We love you! Let's just say I miss you guys. So much. Until our next trip when I down my weight in food and drinks again. <3”
“As a Greek, I feel at home!! Absolutely Brilliant! Food & vibe is beyond Awesome!”

“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”
“My husband and I had dinner here before attending the Nate Bargatze comedy show on Sunday, October 26th. We were running late due to the Bengals game letting out, and the traffic and crowds in the streets were beyond chaotic. We called Bourbon's and informed them of the situation and they were so kind to hold our table for us. We finally arrived and we were greeted and seated immediately. The service, the food, and the ambiance were all excellent. We would highly recommend this place. It's a great location if you're attending an event at Paycor Stadium, the Reds Stadium, or the Heritage Bank Center. It was an easy choice being so close to the venue we were attending and we're glad we chose it!”
“Amazing food. Wonderful views. The ambiance and service was 10/10. 💜💜💜”
“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!!!”
“Crown Cantina provided a exceptional dining experience last night. The kitchen is 100% gluten-free, offering a unique and refreshing change of pace. We started with the tostadas and salsa, which were delicious and had a nice kick. We also enjoyed the Hamachi, the Tijuanero (steak taco), and the large plate chicken enchiladas verde, all of which were made to order and full of flavor. The margaritas were also a highlight, with the ghost and guava margarita being a standout. All of their margaritas are crafted in-house, making them a healthier option. If you're looking for a high-end Mexican meal, Crown Cantina is a great choice.”
“My friend and I came for lunch today. We had the mixed grill for two and it was FANTASTIC! We had the hummus for an appetizer and tea. Everything was delicious, the service was prompt, and our server was so nice and friendly. I highly recommend!”
“The food and service are absolutely incredible! Coming here is definitely a great way to celebrate any occasion! The wait staff are incredibly knowledgeable and the kitchen is extremely accommodating to any dietary restrictions!”
“We ate here for the first time last night , it was packed but we were seated right away and they moved us over to be closer to heat with no issues whatsoever; our server Emily was super sweet and the hostess as well !!! We can’t wait to come back, our food was delicious and great servings … Emily was very attentive and was great with recommendations .. hubby is a cook and can be a little picky haha 🤣 but he LOVED everything he even wanted to tip whoever made the Mac and cheese anywho 10 stars ⭐️”
“Great atmosphere and the food was really great! Shrimp cocktail for appetizer and the cod orzo was delicious! Great place to eat! Service was quick and friendly”
“Very cool spot, real good beer, and a great service! Tia was real nice and helped our group figure out where to eat tonight - she was amazing. Also, great high five! Check this place out for sure!”
“The food was delicious. Had my husband hollering, lol scared the ppl at first then the other customers joined in. Service was amazing”
“We had dinner with 7 people and everyone enjoyed their meal. The Gnocchi was phenomenal. 10/10 highly recommend!!”

“Alex was amazing! Great food! Pineapple margaritas are to die for! Def recommend!”
“It’s me, back again to rave again about Kiki. Apparently people usually only leave reviews when they don’t like something, so now every time I leave raving 5 star reviews, I get comments saying I was paid for it 😂 so please know these are my own words and they are not being encouraged by anyone but my tummy. Kiki is my favorite neighborhood spot. It is everything I could want, from ambiance to experience and server interaction to the food. I have a lot of food aversions and pickiness and I have never had anything I disliked or sent back or even wanted to! (I could list my favorites but it would just be everything… but if I have to recommend specifics to a new Kiki-goer; start with the karrage, seaweed salad, Napa Caesar, and the Shio ramen) Every single thing I have had here is delicious, prepared and served with care, and the only negative thing is when they close. I don’t have any food photos to share, but I do have a meme I made out of my love for Kiki. 🫶”
“Bistro Biaggo was such a great experience! I had the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and shrimp, and it was creamy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. My friend had the pesto pasta and loved it as well. Everything tasted fresh, the portions were satisfying, and the overall experience was excellent. Definitely a spot I’d recommend in Cincinnati if you’re craving a great Italian meal. We’ll absolutely be back!”
“Absolutely fabulous experience! Amazing food, drinks, and fun vibes. The roasted eggplant is to die for, and the Sauvignon Blanc blend was fantastic. Great time with friends and wonderful staff made it even better!”
“My mom and I had dinner here just before the kitchen closed, so it wasn’t super busy. Our server, Johnathan, took amazing care of us and was knowledgeable on gluten free items. We ordered the artichokes and beet salad which were delicious, and they even had gluten free bread for our hummus appetizer. There was a kitchen error with the add on of beef tenderloin to my salad but our server took excellent care in correcting it and the manager even came by to ensure we were happy with the service. We finished the dinner with gluten free shot glass desserts and will definitely go back!”
“Service was very friendly. Food came out very fast. The spring rolls were hot, crispy, and tasty. The drunken noodles and ginger eggplant were also very tasty.”
“Had a wonderful experience at Tela! our server, Arlena was fabulous too.”
“We had a lovely Mother’s Day dinner! The restaurant is gorgeous and very welcoming with great music playing. Our server was very friendly and did a great job telling us about Mad Tree and explaining the menu, and the food was delicious! I would highly recommend Alcove!!”
“Trio is the best! Can't say enough good things about the food and service! Kaitlyn our server is beyond fantastic!”
“First time was Valentines day.Very busy, but food and service was splendid. The decor and the music was quite appropriate for the atmosphere of the restaurant.”
“Stopped in with some co workers, very welcoming and chill vibe! Drinks were delicious more importantly the bartender, host, and owner were all very professional and friendly. Worth stopping by”
“I live in FL, but travel to Ohio often, and visiting The Hamilton Cincinnati is always a must, and usually more than once each trip. The craft cocktail menu changes as it’s always fun to try their new drinks. Last night I had the newly added ‘Raspberry Beret’ and their Old Fashioned is my personal fav of all time. Their wine selection is impressive and priced right so you can come back often and eat too. I love that! The food offerings are creative and tasty and the portions are perfect for sharing. Being a Cincinnati girl, I enjoy being able to get the brat plate, (the brats being pre scored into bite sized portions, served with mustard for dipping and paired with a sampling of sauerkraut and roasted potatoes which are great to add to that brat on your fork). I can’t get that in my corner of FL year round. The warm goat cheese plate is another outstanding favorite as well, and they happily obliged my request to substitute pita bread triangles in place of the crostini. The decor is beautiful and comfortable, the patrons and staff are friendly, and Northside is fun to visit as well. This is most definitely a great place to try! Highly recommend.”
“Perfect for Anniversary couldn’t have been a better evening”
“Crumbl never disappoints! Every cookie is soft, thick, and full of flavor. The rotating menu keeps things fun, and everything always tastes fresh out of the oven. Definitely worth the hype!”
“Had a great experience at Cooper’s Hawk! Our waiter Harrison took great care of us. He was friendly, attentive, and has such a fun personality. He kept us laughing and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Great service, great atmosphere, and an all-around great time. We’ll definitely be back!”
“An exceptional dining experience featuring beautifully balanced spices, tender meats, and perfectly executed classic dishes. Aadhi was very welcoming and super nice in taking care of us.”
“Between this and The hitching post they have the best fried chicken in the Cincinnati area. not even close! love the dark meat”
“made a res for my friends birthday and rob was our server. rob graced us with the most wonderful service we’ve never received. wish i could whip out the encyclopedia to describe rob in detail. if you’re his manager- give rob a raise right now. he deserves it. already told my boyfriend our anniversary dinner will be here and it’s 5 months away. bless up rob we miss you already”
“We had a wonderful time. The service and food were great, and when you consider that this is all done in the tight confines of a train car on the move, it was 5 stars! The conductor had interesting trivia and facts about things along the route. A fun time.”
“We went here because was close to the hospital. Used to go to olive garden. Never again. Carrabbas is top notch from top down!”
“In town for our anniversary. Randomly looked up options for cocktails and lunch. Reserved a spot via Open Table and they did not disappoint. The deviled eggs are amazing. The Dirty French burger and Neck Bone Gravy were out of this world. Service was top notch. We will be back!”
“We just had to share a huge thank you to Quarter Bistro for making our son’s night so special! Our 17-year-old son took his girlfriend there for homecoming dinner on Saturday. We had told him to make sure he was ready — check prices, reservations, have enough to tip, the whole parent talk. He chose Quarter Bistro because it’s a place they always drive past, and it felt special to them even though they’d never been. He came home absolutely glowing! He said the food was amazing, the staff was wonderful, and the atmosphere was perfect — even if, in his words, it was “all older people” 😂. The best part? The manager came out, told them how much he loved seeing young couples there, and took care of their bill. That kindness meant the world to him — and to us as parents. Thank you so much to the staff and management for such a thoughtful gesture. It made their night unforgettable. ❤️ We’ll definitely be visiting soon ourselves!”
“We almost didn’t visit this brewery because we can get Samuel Adam’s beer at home in Kansas easily. However at the end of our three days in Cincinnati this was hands down our favorite of the 4 breweries we visited. There are definitely options not on tap or in bottles at home that we enjoyed. 💜”
“It’s a great day to enjoy some great customer experiences and superb food. Enjoyed the Thai pork chops, truffle fries and firecracker shrimp. Shucks, I even ordered two pizzas to go!
Emily was more than a server. She
made the experience amazingly memorable. She had two colleagues helping out to deliver
Food. They were pretty amazing, too; didn’t get their names (one colleague (I believe: She) had pink-ish black hair and other colleague (I believe: He) looked like he worked out all the time when not at Yard House.
Pretty amazing experience. I’ve been to a many and one of my top to date.”
“Sarah L was our server and she was so sweet and patient with us!! She treated our severely brain damaged friend fantastically and showed nothing but kindness! I really appreciated how she was always there to make sure we had everything we needed. Thank you!! ❤”
“I went in for lunch on August 15th and was very impressed by the service. Quinn was on top of everything and even though I just ordered a salad and fries, he treated me as if I had ordered the most expensive entree and bottle of wine. He kept refilling my drinks and made my lunch very enjoyable. I used to wait tables and can recognize great service when I receive it. Thank you to Quinn and J Alexander's.”

“I have had to leave a negative review on this store before but everything was like night and day today. I care about customer service because my family owned several restaurants years ago in Florida and I know the importance. From the moment any customer walked in the store, Dan immediately acknowledged each and every one of them. Dan is exactly the type of employee I always wanted in my stores in fact, I recommend having Dan train all of your employees if he doesn't already. Thank you Dan!”
“We love the atmosphere, good food and drinks. Staff is very friendly and professional. Clean and a nice place to go hang out to eat and mingle with others and YOU can control the music using the QR code provided at your table. Ms. Tina at the bar with those blue berry drinks are on point. This our new hang out spot :)!!!”
“My husband and I were treated at a Music Hall post-performance celebration several weeks ago - fabulous sampler was given to us as we departed. The assortment of bite size treats was fabulous. We live in Oxford but and are planning a trip to visit the bakery in person very soon.”
“This is the 3rd time I’ve ordered Detroit style Pizza from Jets and it’s always been excellent. This time I tried the 8 corner “Jets 10” it was loaded with toppings, hot and exactly what I hoped for. And the staff were nice to me as well. But I always forget how filling this style pizza is and 2 slices my max so I’ll freeze the leftovers because it reheats very well”

“Everything, from being seated, beautiful dining room, table setting, knowledgeable waiter and backup servers. Manager introduced himself and asked if all was well. I ordered the 12oz NY Strip, medium rare, with the biggest baked potato I’ve ever had. Everything was timely and enjoyed the experience with fellow employees. We were in town for a conference and will definitely remember the wonderful meal we all enjoyed. John McCabe Fairport NY 14450”
“Shires has inspired me to write. My experience was fit for a foodie and exceeded my expectations. The food, service and ambiance were all spot on.
Upon arrival, my friend and I received news that there would be a short wait for our table, so we grabbed a seat at the bar.
I appreciated their variety of craft cocktails and decided on the Smokey Harvest. Composed of Mezcal, apple cider and a delicious spiced demerara syrup, omgoodness! It was interesting, well-balanced and tasty. My friend ordered the Raven with rum and ginger beer as its main ingredients.
A little before both cocktails were ready, we were notified that our outdoor table was available.
Immediately stepping onto the rooftop, I knew that’s where I belonged. The view of the riverfront was stunning! It also helped that the weather was absolutely perfect.
Now for the food.
We ordered fried green tomatoes and spinach dip to start. For our entrees, my friend ordered a burger and I, the mushroom tagliatelle. My dish was phenomenal. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the hint of truffle sealed the deal.
The Reds won that night, so our experience ended with the beignets for dessert and fireworks.
What a perfect night.”
“Drove the distance to Celebrate my parents 58th anniversary and was worth the drive. Get the pub fish and chips you won't be disappointed. Im super picky about my tartar sauce and coleslaw and theirs was top notch. Filet was amazing and prime rib were hits with our group. The French onion soup was lick the bowl clean worthy if you know what I mean.”

“Super impressed with Better Blend Anderson. My friends have raved about BB Florence for years. I finally found BB in anderson. My family has ordered over 10 smoothies so far and we've enjoyed all of them. My favorites are LeanGreen and PBOreo. Impressed with the fresh produce used, the size and value. The store is so clean too!! Well done!! You made me a regular in one week.”
“Mr. Hummus is obviously the only and best name for this restaurant. Went here first time for a quick dinner solution. Gave us free hummus with our order. Well that smaller tub of hummus barely made it through the door. On popular demand had to stop the next day to buy a large and you can see ot didnt take long to make a massive dent. One of the top 10 hummus I've eaten. The falafel is great, flavorful. The gyro meat very flavorful and tender. Great stop for a hearty meal to take home. You can also dine in.”
“We have dined in and ordered delivery from the NKY and Deer Park locations, and all have been wonderful! We have sampled many dishes on the menu, and everything has been delicious. My favorite is the chicken tikka saag. The service is great, too. The servers in the restaurant are helpful, and when we order delivery, everything is packaged and labeled carefully. We will be back soon!”
“I was craving something sweet so I decided to get the Carmel milkshake and funnel cake fries.delicious.. 🤤 . i also stole a bite of Mac and cheese from my friend. they weren't playing when it came to the cheese, also very good. next time I'm going to try the chicken and waffles. bbs cyas”
“Everything about this place is amazing. The food is too good. I ate until my tummy hurt. The gentleman behind the counter made me feel loved and welcome. The family that owns it are great people who give back to the community. It is tucked away, but def worth finding.”
“Damn. This is a taste of Hollywood in Anderson. If you want healthy, or better yet low carb, you have found the WINNER! I trusted Angel, got the Wild SouthWest salad. It was the best food I've tried all year. The chicken was all clean cut white breast meat with absolutely no fat, grisle, or undesirable meat. I am shocked at how much I recieved versus what I paid. PERFECT for a lunch date &+ the establishment smelled very well cleaned and freshly sanitized! I ate the entire thing on the way home, I literally dropped my fork and grabbed a spoon I had also got there 🤣🤣🤣 I didnt get a picture, but I will be getting the other 5 salads im 100% positive. They should have a drive through! Skip starbucks one day and give this place a try you'll thank yourself later! Bonvoyage!”
“Had a great experience at Cooper’s Hawk! Our waiter Harrison took great care of us. He was friendly, attentive, and has such a fun personality.

“My wife and I went to this restaurant today, after a great recommendation from one of my employees. This place is absolutely amazing! The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the service is completely top notch! Literally better service than I have received probably ever, and we go to A LOT of restaurants. Literally, my wife’s napkin fell to the ground and after I picked it up, the lady who was the host to us seen it and brought her a new one. Drinks did not run dry, and every single member of the staff was helping out and conversing with us. The owner and chef even came out to shake my hand. What an absolute gem in Cincinnati. This is a place NOT to miss out on. And don’t forget to order the cornbread! Hands down the best I have ever tasted. We left and wished we were hungry again and could turn around and go back inside.”
