“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!“

“Sotto embodies the feeling of understated luxury. From the wood-fired oven to the homemade pasta, the chef's dedication to every dish is evident. I particularly enjoyed their Italian meatballs and roasted eggplant appetizers, which paired perfectly with a glass of red wine. This place isn't just about dining; it's about enjoying a mini culinary journey. If you're in Cincinnati, be sure to make reservations in advance; otherwise, it's very difficult to get a table.“

“Thanks HPF for the delicious platter for our Easter guests! Everyone LOVED the club & Italian sandwiches! 😋“

“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..“

“Ribs and green are delicious!!!!“

“Great food! Friendly atmosphere!!“

“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 !!“

“my husband and I had breakfast at the original pancake house this morning/afternoon the place was delightful lots of family's this morning the food was absolutely delicious and let me tell you I got the eggs and pancakes 🥞 it's was enough for 3 people yes I got a go box we are having breakfast burritos for dinner the staff was fantastic and sweet. we will be back soon“

“Kelly our server was phenomenal and created an experience to remember. The chefs made the herb crusted steak to perfection and left me craving more!! We will certainly be back.“

“Always a good dining experience, however I gave food a 4 because the spice level of your food can be hit or miss. Sometimes you get spice appropriate to what you ordered and sometimes there is no spiciness to be found. Still very tasty even without the heat, but if you like your food spicy it can be disappointing.“

“This company is TOP NOTCH! The Sweets and Meats trailer catered our wedding and when I tell you people still have not stopped raving about their food, I mean it! From the tasting, to the planning, to the day of, Kristen and their team were so helpful, organized and easy-going throughout! We will 100% be recommending them for other weddings, private events and to just go and grab a bite at their place downtown in Cincinnati! Forever a fan!“

“I finally ate at Mayas Indian Restaurant and it was great! The Chicken Jalfrezi was very flavorful. I ate inside with my family and the customer service was outstanding. I'll definitely be going back!“

“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.“

“we love Queen Anna! always good coming in to CB, hot chicken was great, pickles still excellent. clean, one facet inside like wad they have a dedicated take out area with boxes, bags, utensils. Would be great if full silverware could come back like at the other Cut BBQs, those plastic knives and forks are just meh.“

“Very good food I will go back again!!“

“Morning Meditation, carrot cake pancake, & Barbacoa Quesadilla Benedict! Perfect Sunday brunch!“

“We went here because was close to the hospital. Used to go to olive garden. Never again. Carrabbas is top notch from top down!“

“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.“

“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“

“Excellent food, the patroness mixed the sauce for us and everyone's food was delicious and almost more than we could finish. Recommend the Salt & Pepper Chicken and the Rangoon for appetizers. Was a tiny bit skeptical upon arrival but glad we trusted the high google rating, we'll definitely be back!“

“We had dinner with 7 people and everyone enjoyed their meal. The Gnocchi was phenomenal. 10/10 highly recommend!!“

“As an Italian, I’m really happy and proud that Italian cuisine is well represented by Nicola’s. I went there with my lady to celebrate Saint Valentines in advance, and we were so happy to spend our time there. The place is wonderful, the service is perfect and the food… the food is astronomical! Personally I do love the Malfatti “A true love for Rome”. As being born and raised in Rome I do really appreciate that love for my city. Definitely a 10/10, and best place to experience Italian cuisine. P.S. Italiani, se siete di passaggio a Cincinnati fate un salto da Nicola, non ve ne pentirete“

“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 ⭐️“

“Classic Americana and textbook friendly neighborhood bar-restaurant! Newtown Village Tavern pizza is everything LaRosa’s wishes it was and it is the superior “Cincinnati Pie” in every way. Cold beer on tap, sports on the tube. What more could you want?“

“Delicious food and friendly service“

“Authentic Colombian food. Findlay Market location is small with standing options for eating. Market days are crowded so be prepared to take out and to wait (20 minutes) for fresh food to be prepared.

Chicken and cheese arepa and steak chorizo were great. Can choose your salsa.“

“Alex was amazing! Great food! Pineapple margaritas are to die for! Def recommend!“

“Best gyro. I love the fresh bread, delicious meat, crisp onion tomato and lettuce. The fries are so light and crispy.“

“We have been ordering from the Indian Bistro for many years! Food and service just keeps getting better and better! Favorite restaurant in the city! ❤️Fox Family!“

“Last night our family unexpectedly stopped in while a large group (20ish people. The staff was quick to make space for us and our waitress was amazing. She got all of our orders correct and even helped me order safely w food allergies. The chefs also did a wonderful job. The food was cooked to perfection and came out pretty quickly considering the size of our group. Great job everyone! Thank you for being awesome. We will definitely be back again“

“Amazing food and community oriented owners“

“The gotta melt was fantastic! Hot cheesy and the spicy mayo was fantastic. The chips as the side was a little disappointing they were fine just a little stingy with them for the price. Ate at the bar and Any was a fantastic server and I was able to sample several beers to make my choice. The beer was outstanding the Chocolate Hazelnut Milk Stout was so good and I am not even a big coffee fan but that beer could change that!“

“Our meal was delicious. The service was excellent! We highly recommend La Bar a Boeuf! I had the crab cake appetizer and it was very good-2 large crab cakes. My husband had the escargot-very good. I had duck for the entrée. Again, I recommend this dish. My husband had the soft shell crab??. We were too full to have desert!“
