50 Best American Restaurants near Groesbeck

“Another Colerain township gem..!First off I was greater by 4 smiling faces. I was assisted with ordering, and offered shake on spices, a very lite lemon salt, homemade hot sauce, and fresh made tortillas. Ordered the whole roasted chicken dinner. Came with beans and rice, and a nice tossed salad. EVERYTHING was delicious. I had to dash a bit of all the seasoning in my food, and was pleasantly surprised at the unique flavors. The salad was fresh and crisp. All in all, it was a 5+ star, south of the border experience for my senses, but especially my taste buds.Gracias amigos, we will return!“

“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!!!

“My wife and I spent our 37 wedding anniversary in the Cincinnati area. We wanted to find a nice place, but different than the usual for our anniversary dinner. My wife found Meritage Restaurant online and said it sounded like what we wanted. She called to make a reservation and from the conversation on the phone we were excited to eat here! After arriving to the area, which was a hidden gem in itself, we were greeted by a very friendly hostess! We ask to sit upstairs to enjoy the live music and those guys did not disappoint with their blues/jazz music! Our waitress, she is why there should be no tax on tips! She knew her stuff and was AWESOME! The food, from the stuffed mushrooms, to our dinner, to dessert did not disappoint! EVERYTHING was perfect and it made our anniversary a very special evening! I would drive the two hours from our house to eat here again! GREAT PLACE!!!!!“

“Last Fall, we had Ron's Roost cater a family wedding celebration at our home. When we picked up the food, it was tediously prepared and organized for transporting. Their service was outstanding! The portions were abundant! Nobody beats their chicken for a large crowd. Everyone raved about it! And we were able to send lots of food home with our guests. I HIGHLY recommend both their restaurant and this take out catering service. They are reasonably priced, a Westside favorite and owned by a lovely family. Thank you!“

“A one-of-a-kind evening on the rails!

If you’re looking for a truly unique experience in Cincinnati, the Cincinnati Dinner Train is an absolute must. I recently took the ride and it completely exceeded my expectations.

From the moment you step aboard the beautifully restored vintage railcars, you feel transported to a different era. The atmosphere is elegant but welcoming, and the staff goes above and beyond to make the evening special without being overly formal.

I had a delicious four-course meal (the calzone I chose was amazing!), and loved that you pick your entrée when you book. Everything was served hot, fresh, and beautifully presented. The train ride itself is smooth and scenic—you catch glimpses of the city that you just don’t get from the road.

Even if you’re not a train enthusiast, this is a wonderful option for a date night, special celebration, or hosting out-of-town guests. It’s the perfect blend of nostalgia, great food, and a little adventure. I’ll definitely be recommending this to friends and visitors!“

“I had the “ In the Beginning “ with a side of fruit. It was well cook and presented.“

“worst store in all categories. I live in Fairfield, Ohio but go to the Harrison store instead., Harrison Cracker Barrel has its act together,“

“awesome food great server matt! some lady was talking very loudly and rude about the prices and he handled it well. Saw some post on facebook with her starting stuff about it but please don’t listen to that. they were straight rude and got what they deserved. some people need to understand that servers are humans too and you can’t talk to them however you want! good job matt for handling that situation and shoutout to angelo for making the best food in town! Btw prices are amazingly low! don’t be a cheapskate;)!“

“Our favorite Friday night spot! We visit weekly and I am finally taking time to come here and write a review. Hands down the best service, food and atmosphere! I love their menu, there are plenty of options for every one. We’ve had them accommodate large groups for us and again provide top notch service. We always request our favorite server, Dion and she never disappoints! She is friendly and so attentive to us. We appreciate her! We appreciate a close place to enjoy a great meal and spend time with friends and family! ❤️“

“I love that every thing is farm to table from local farmers. Delicious food and everything was fresh“

“Great lunch option in downtown Cincinnati. Lively, fast paced quick casual spot that focuses on salads, sandwiches and soups. Always packed for weekday lunch though tables turn over quickly. They have a great pick two option with soup/sandwich or soup/salad.“

“Great food but not too fancy.“

“thanks for feeding our #primeelite boys tonight before their first tournament tomorrow! showing love to the locals ❤️🔥“

“we ate in today, my mother and i. our experience with our server, Amber was unlike any experience that we've had before I'm grateful. I haven't necessarily given them the best ratings in the past, I don't remember our server's name those times. Amber however will be unforgettable for the rest of my life and here's why. there were a couple of elderly couples that were seated after us, and she was very familiar with these people already, whereas we were not familiar with her at all. she handled each table differently, accordingly, no doubt with respect and love. heavy on both. I had to call and record a charge on my card and I was kind of holding my mom up and be able to order food and I felt bad because she was starving. somehow some way, Amber had our food out to us very quickly, cooked perfectly, absolutely everything the way that we ordered it. we didn't have to send anything back, we didn't have to ask for anything else extra to be brought to us, she even walked by after a few minutes and brought us extra napkins. I mean, super top notch service. quick, perfect. and that singing voice on that woman oh my god! I was a little reluctant to eat here today because my last few times eating here weren't necessarily the best experience, but I will be back for sure.“

“Listen, I’ve had horrible experiences here, BUT after today, I will most definitely come back, my server, Mia was perfect! The food was killer, the service was outstanding!! She made my day!!! This server deserves a raise!“

“First visit today - I ordered 2 full slabs, the fried cabbage, jalapeño corn bread stuffing, and potato salad sides, all of which perfectly compliment the smoke on those ribs. Also got to sample a new menu item - jerk pork burnt ends. Absolutely fantastic! The flavor of that jerk sauce will give you chills. Definitely coming back to try everything (yes, everything) else. Dine in or carry-out - just go get some!!“

“I ordered a Philly beef quesadilla that came with house made Saratoga chips. The quesadilla was huge and amply filled with shaved steak mozzarella cheese and peppers. It was absolutely delicious and I very much enjoyed the chips as well. The service was fabulous and plenty a big screen sports action to watch while waiting for my meal.“

“Everything is AMAZING!!!!“

“Great food! My only suggestion is to have a website so we can see the every day menu.“

“I love the atmosphere, it’s elegant but with the door opening and closing that made it chili and that’s why I gave the 4 stars. The wait staff was excellent. Swift, patient, knowledgeable, all stepped in and helped, truly satisfied with the service! The food was exquisite!!! I had the baked chicken and baked potato and it was cooked and seasoned to perfection!!!! I only gave 4 stars because for me I feel the menu is limited with choices I like. The person I was with raved about the trout, couscous, and Brussels sprouts! This was a special night, special event, and j Alexander felt just as special!!!“

“Best wings on the West Side. Change that. Best wings in all of Cincinnati. Love all the Wild Mike’s locations. Have not been to this one in years. The new expansion at this one is great. The new bar is a great addition“

“On 2-7-25 I ordered at drive thru. I waited for them to bring out my order. 4 cars behind me got their order.I went inside to find out where my order was. Asst Mgr Barb, without missing a beat continued filling orders, asked if they had my order.When she got no answer, she asked one of the cooks to make my sandwich.She asked another co-worker if she had coupons. Once my order was ready, she sincerely apologized for the and gave me my food and the coupon. I told her I was impressed with how she made things happen and took care of the situation. She was very professional and was doing an awesome job managing the business.“

“Emillie was a great server! Let's start with the great things. We did apps and sides. Dumplings were so good but broth was phenomenal !!! Burrata and tomato jam was basically an amazing caprese, sooo good. We also had truffle mushrooms which we added to dumpling broth, YUM! and also had the perfect broccoli with just an ok aioli. Was unimpressed with crab avocado toast, not worth the expense. Have had a a lot of crab food options s and this underwhelmed. My husband is a brownie sundae officianato and he seriously loved the s'more brownie dessert. Overall, great food and sat outside away from a noisy interior on a Friday night.“
