Amazing experience at Wildweed and what an addition to the Cincinnati restaurant scene. We did the chef's table with wine pairing and they knocked it out of the park. From the service, every single person acknowledged and welcomed us to the food (so creative, delicious and locally inspired), to all the small touches of high end glassware for wines, beautiful furniture. I don't know how every single person is not raving about this spot. Can't wait to go back, as it's been the best meal in the city. With fine dining spots in the city lost like Table, Nuvo, L, this one I hope stands the test of time for a new modern type of fine dining.

Food was amazing—the photos don’t convey the amount of depth and surprise in each dish! Conversation was a bit strained ? since it’s so loud.

A moment of scare with a non-dining emergency was handled with care this evening. The staff did a great job of handling the situation. The food was excellent!

Tried this place last year because the chef was good friends with my job manager at the time. I got the food for free and still had a hard time stomaching the food. After I had left, I had gotten a good old fashioned cheeseburger because I was still hungry. Maybe my palette just isn’t mature enough, I don’t know. I’m used to “normal” food and while I’m adventurous, I still wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

I've been wanting to come to Wildweed after hearing such positive things & it did not disappoint. 1 of my favorite meals I've had in awhile & a wonderful addition to the Cincy food scene. Such a unique menu & all of the handmade pastas are unique, delicious & can tell its homemade. All of the food was delicious, i just wish I had done the tasting menu, but I'll save that for next time. We got the oysters, 2 pastas, ribeye & almond cake with apples for dessert. Standouts were both pastas & the ribeye (better than any Ribeye I've had at Ruby's places). The food is thoughtful & inventive, but most importantly delicious. Service is top notch along with the cocktails & wine list. I absolutely can't wait to go back

I had the best meal of my life last night!! The Chefs Tasting with Premium Wine pairing is where it’s at. The attention to detail with each course and the attention from the staff and chef were top notch. I chose to stay immersed in the meal experience and not take photos of each plate, but take my word for it, THIS PLACE IS

RUN here as soon as possible! And go with friends so you can order everything on the menu. We loved it all so much, but some highlights included the Clams, Beet Salad, Ranger Chicken Tortellini and the Red Fife Mafaldine. Can't wait to go back.

Tonight was a dining experience I will never forget. Cincinnati is blessed with delicious food and fun atmospheres but it is not every day when you experience both in one setting. Wildweed’s chef’s table was worth every penny. My husband and I enjoyed every bite, plate, and wine pairing served! On top of that, the service was impeccable and it was clear that each individual who has a role on the Wildweed team enjoys their job. Shout out to our sommelier, she was amazing and made us laugh throughout the night. I can’t wait to go back for all of the new dishes chef has to offer! MORE DUMPLINGS!!!!

Cute little spot! Restaurant was a bit loud and service was a bit slow at first. We had the bread, beet salad, and watermelon for appetizers. All delicious! The watermelon had a kick that was wonderful. For mains we got the mezzaluna, doppio ravioli, potato gnocchi, and steak. Skip the gnocchi. The flavors were off and it was not good. We did not eat it. Do NOT skip the mezzaluna! Delicious, complex, and delightful. We fought over who would have the last bite. Drinks were good, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. All in all good food, but not cheap!
Wildweed exceeded expectations relative to creatively and flavor profiles of their pasta dishes.
However, feel they fell short with under seasoned halibut. Their mains need rethinking. Thankfully we didn't order the $100 ribeye.
The atmosphere felt like an overcrowded brunch restaurant, loud, harsh lighting, no discernible music, no intimacy.
The service was OK. Long waits for drinks. It felt like the kitchen was lagging and the pacing felt long and awkward, which probably was more due to the lack of ambiance.

Service is absolutely top notch, the 3 courses we tried were however a completely different story. A bit lackluster - you pay for not just an experience but for your palette to be startled at the mixture of flavor combinations you didn’t know existed. Respectfully, wild weeds did not impress. Was it an off night? Who’s to say, all I know is I’m still hungry.

My wife and I were very excited to try Wildweed but as soon as we sat down the place just felt off. It's too bright in the restaurant especially with the very close quarters dining. The music was entirely too loud and the food was a mixed bag.
My wife's ravioli was very good as was my entree but the oysters were not. We are oyster people so when we were served oysters already sweetened with a sauce and no compliments, we were a bit surprised. I like oysters, I don't want to just taste a sweet sauce. They were also served with ice on them which was odd. The wine selection wasn't great either. It was just okay.
The service was excellent. No complaints there at all. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and very nice.
My recommendations would be to dim the lighting and turn down the music. Perhaps stay away from the oyster game especially when Atwood is not far away. They are doing oysters right.
Overall I do think the entrees were good but they didn't blow me away. With other elements of our experience I was left wanting.

I can’t believe I’ve forgotten to review this gem. We’ve been going since it was a pop up and right away I knew that the owner chef is talented , creative chef.
Kinda waiting on it to calm down before we go again because it has been very busy and successful but it don’t seem to be slowing down so we will need to squeeze in I guess
The ribeye is crazy good. Their fresh pasta is like nothing you will get anywhere else, done by I think the best pasta chef in Cincinnati (porter) this place is just great and you can tell that they appreciate the opportunity and love what they do.
We’ve been telling everyone.
Next time we go it will be for the tasting menu , we can’t wait.
