Parmesan garlic wings are the best I have ever had. Forgot to take a picture they looked so good. I will be back soon. The meat was falling off the bone.Food: 5/5

Cool atmosphere and quick service. Open until 2am but the kitchen shuts down early so no food if you are a late visitor.Service: 5/5

This is a friendly neighborhood bar. It seems to open early and close late. They have a kitchen that serves traditional bar fare. There are not any draft beer taps, but a better and average selection of canned/craft beer. There is a small outdoor patio out front with seating for smoking.Food: 5/5

Great little dive bar in the middle of downtown. Good service by Scotty all the time and some good burgers late night.Food: 5/5

I didn't have the food but I was there for drinks. Nice comfy bar.....my kinda bar. Why I am giving this high of a review is when we were there a customer was saying goodbye to the black haired female bartender and she accidentally dropped $200 on the floor. The bartender spotted this accident about 5 minutes after the customer left and chased her down on the street to return the money to the young lady who dropped it. Now that's customer service!!!!!! Great job Madonna's and especially the bartender!!!!

Food was delicious. We tried Jamaican j*** chicken which was awesome, sweet and spicy with a kick. The burger was flame broiled and onion rings were beer battered. I highly recommendFood: 5/5

This was my first time in Cincinnati and I'll be back every visit. Incredible food, great atmosphere, I was all about it. They have a great setup and it has a great authentic dive feel while being totally clean.Food: 5/5

Mariah is an absolute gem!! I hope that she is here the next time I come to town!! This place is a top notch dive!! Plenty of space as well as a CIGARETTE MACHINE!! I couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend a few hours before the concert I was attending!! The kitchen crew was also so great! I had a great St. Patrick’s day thanks to y’all!! Cheers!! :)

Stumbled upon this bar while looking for a night cap. Prices were fair and cocktails were tasty. The bartender there was hilarious. A great hole in the wall bar.
One of the best lil watering holes in downtown Cincinnati. Madonna's, where the wings are smoking hot, the beer is still regular flavor beer and the crowd is a very diverse collection of characters/customers.Food: 4/5

Someone suggested Madonna’s said they had good wings since Knockbacks was way to packed. Probably worse chicken I’ve ever had. There was a funny taste. Wasn’t a fan. Plus the bartenders rush you for your money. Just a big NO for me.

The service was minimal. We had to leave our table and go up to the bar and ask for menus, order food and order drinks. Would have be easier to just set at the bar but all the seats were taken. There was a waitress wandering around but didn't seem to be waiting on many tables, not sure what was up with her. The food was okay but mostly cold with the one exception, one order of fries. I guess they made the food then didn't have all the fries ready and waited to bring out the order, end result cold food, one order of hot fries.

The woman with the glasses who is a bartender is terrible. She ignored me for 10 mins. Asked for my ID then walked away and to do something else while I’m actively handing her my ID. Clearly she had favorites in there but that doesn’t mean don’t take care of your other customers
