This place is fantastic! Kosher restaurants are rare and therefore expensive, but not the case here. The food was great and reasonably priced. The burgers were incredible and if you are a pasta fan try the beef fettuccine! Definitely make this a stop!

One of the Best mediterranean spots in Cincinnati. Fully kosher restaurant with a really nice environment, perfect for a date night or night out. I really like the chicken shwarma gyro, and the falafel is perfectly crispy. You won’t be disappointed.Vegetarian options: Falafel and vegetarian meatDietary restrictions: Kosher and vegetarian optionsKid-friendliness: Good kids menu

Our dinner at Kinneret Grill on Valentine's Day was wonderful. We ordered the short ribs special and chicken schnitzel; both were delicious. We particularly enjoy the pleasant, relaxing ambience of Kinneret.

The falafel pita was great! The owner is very friendly and welcoming. Lunch special was also a good deal. Thank you!

My coworkers picked this restaurant and I am so glad they did. I'm a fan of Mediterranean food, and this was spectacular. The hummus was unlike any I've ever tasted - light and fluffy. Since I'm gf, our lovely waitress found cucumber slices for me. I had the Chicken Shawarma and it was perfect: the chicken was spiced perfectly and the accompaniments were delightful and so well matched. Everyone was so nice and accommodating. All 7 of were delighted with our meals.We didn't realize they close at 8PM, and stayed talking until 8:30, and yet we didn't feel rushed out the door.My next visit to this area will definitely include a trip back to this gem!Dietary restrictions: The cucumbers were a great replacement for pita for the GF folks. This is a lovely Kosher restaurant.
Amazing food for every type of person. The service was spectacular, owner and his family are great people. I recommend the shawarma plate. The hummus there is some of the best I’ve ever had.

The food was delicious, the ambience was great. I would just like to see more options on the menu, including more sandwich options. I also would like to see a complimentary appetizer such as pita and chumus offered. With the higher prices of everything on the menu, it would go a long way to offer diners some complimentary appetizers.

Our Hanukkah dinner at Kinneret Grill this week was fabulous! Our party of seven was well taken care of. Each dish ordered - Mediterranean plate, rib eye steak plate, tempura orange sesame chicken plate, and chicken shawarma plate - was well presented and delicious. Portions were generous, and everyone was happy with their meal. The latkes we ordered on the side were fresh and oh so tasty, too ?. Thanks to owners Avner and Karen Chriqui, and servers, for making our family Hanukkah dinner so enjoyable.
Well made reservations on a Friday. That were by the way accepted. Said posted hours on site should have been open. Showed up and 30 minutes out of our way and they were closed. And on a weekend. Posted new hours only open during the week on the door..... that really helped. Open table would not let me make a new reservation until I canceled this one. But couldn't do that because kinneret had to approve. Was looking forward to trying something new but won't go now. My advice. Call ahead.
