“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! ❤️“

“This was a very nice place to have lunch at. The chicken tenders were delicious and my folks liked their burgers. But I was disappointed in the Andes avalanche custard. They didn’t have any of the mint candy for it. They did offer an alternative but I wasn’t that interested in it.“

“I would have to say that there is a worker there named Krista who had made my order this morning and when I say it was the absolutely best sausage egg cheese melt I had ever had made that is an underestimate It was absolutely fantastic that is the taste of dedication and passion to the craft!!🙌“

“Always a great experience at the Monroe location! Great food and service!“

“My husband brought me here for my 40th birthday. They put a happy birthday sign at the table and made us feel so welcomed from the check in booth to our table. The hostess was so sweet and kind.The bacon deviled eggs was amazing as was the Philly steak egg rolls. My husband had the meatloaf and I had the aged ribeye. Everything was cooked to perfection and our waitress Alanna was more than amazing. Glasses never went empty and service was fast and friendly. Would recommend to everyone I meet! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!“

“fast friendly good food good prices it's a 10 + in my book“

“I love this place Autumn and Kristen are the best bartenders I've ever had!! The food is top notch too!“

“Best food experience I have ever had. BBQ brisket burger was the best burger I have ever had.

Service was top tier for a restaurant of this nature.

Prices worth every penny

Had to still wait on a table unfortunately even with reservations.“

“Thank you so much for accommodating our large group of 12! Bucks is our FAVORITE Thursday night supper spot but we never considered hosting a family celebration there because of space and timing. The Bucks staff and owner made it all work, seating our party as they came, serving those of us who were early with appetizers, and AS ALWAYS, delicious food. The perfect atmosphere for our daughter’s birthday (who has been a Bucks fan for years).“

“We have been to MaineTowne several times now and LOVE their food! Each time has been an amazing experience and they have the best staff! We love their food so much we also do pickup orders when we don’t have time to go for a sit down meal! Highly recommend!“

“I ate at Northstar Cafe in Liberty Township, OH, on a Saturday evening around 9:00 PM. The cashier who took my order was very patient and helpful. I asked several questions about the food since I hadn’t previously eaten at this quick-serve restaurant but she never showed the least exasperation with me.

The music was a little loud. Too loud to carry on a private conversation, but perhaps an acceptable volume for large parties. The interior decoration was pleasant and modern.

I ordered the cheeseburger and fries. My burger was exactly as I ordered it and the French fries were hot and crisp.

I enjoyed my food, the service and (mostly) the ambiance of this Northstar Cafe. If I lived in the area, I would definitely eat there again.“

“Best breakfast place in the area. Coffee is awesome and the service cannot be beat!“

“Played music here over the weekend and I just can’t get over how incredibly neat this place is. Would be perfect for large parties, dinner with friends, or a date night. Also family friendly. Several of my friends came out and brought their small children. Met Heather in person as well as her husband and they were both so nice. Can’t wait to come back! 🤍“

“Loved our server and the biscuits are like they use to be. What I didn't love, when I went to pay, they told me the buy one get one Old Timer's offer expired, even though it had no date on it. Not sure we'll be returning anytime soon.“

“Great Chinese food! The owners are incredibly nice, and they both work in the kitchen. Unfortunately we went on a night when their server was not at work, so one of the owners had to cover which left only one person in the kitchen, so it was very slow. But the food was great and came out piping hot. I still highly recommend checking them out, just make sure you aren’t in a rush. Take some time to enjoy a nice meal and good company and don’t worry about the wait!“

“Mockingbird's catered our event at the Windamere in September of 2023. Their food was fantastic, reasonably priced, and generous portions. The staff and their service were so good. We intend to use them again this year. You should too!!!!“

“I am admittedly not easily impressed, but my son and I had a great experience all around tonight for a quick bite. From the greeting when we walked in, our server Matthew and the food everything was spot on. Tables were being cleaned as people left, the bartenders were wiping down the station, the food came out hot and cooked properly, the employees having a genuine smile. I can honestly say that it was a better experience than I have had at some of the most high end expensive restaurants in Cincinnati. Keep up the great work! Thank you we will definitely be back.“

“Great option for those with celiac. Love the dedicated chicken and fry option. Also love that many sweet treats are safe. Thank you for providing for us all, we love you guys!“

“Some friends and I who had not seen each other in many years met up at Cooper’s Hawk last night for dinner. We were treated so well in every aspect! They let us catch up for hours and our server answered our many questions about the menu and wine with patience and knowledge. Our food was delicious and the wine pairings were excellent. Thank you so much to all the staff and especially our wonderful server, we had a wonderful evening!“

“We loved the Beer Battered Fried Pickles, the Garlic Parmesan Boneless Wings were awesome, and my daughter's jaw dropped when she saw the size of the Pretzel appetizer! Large portions and everything was great. Our server was fast and friendly. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.“

“Cleveland Brown's fans this is your hang out spot in Cincy. Ok beyond that, the food was very good, the selection was huge. Fast service and clean place. There is still outdoor seating to enjoy. We drove an hour to try it and brought the parents. No one was disappointed. Well except the Browns' fans. That was a tough lose to Detriot. But they had good food and cold drinks too console themselves with until next week. Highly recommended 👌“

“This location is the cleanest skyline I’ve ever been to. The employees are so friendly and accommodating. Great place !!“

“Went for ice cream this evening. We are new here and loving the drive through desserts. Cole took our order. Service was above and beyond from being served by Cole until we received our ice cream. The pupcup just top it off perfect!“

“The best service ever!
Sebastián was hands down the best server we’ve ever had, super friendly, attentive, and made our visit unforgettable. The food was absolutely delicious! My partner ordered a burger and it was incredibly tasty, perfectly cooked. I got the Taco Alderman bowl, flavorful and fresh, every bite was amazing. The dessert was spectacular and the margaritas… next level!

And a huge shout-out to Felipe, the manager, who was absolutely wonderful, so welcoming and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish.

We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Wonderful experience. The service was top flight!!“

“We went here for my husband's birthday and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere, food, and service were all amazing. We very rarely say that about all three at a lot of places. We definitely recommend and will come back again. Thank you for bringing a 10 out of 10 to Cincinnati!“

“I’m submitting this because a staff member mentioned the owners actually review these, which I think is great. We live in the neighborhood and really enjoy the place - both the golf and dinner convenience for a family on the go. That said, several of us have asked about getting the Reds games (via the FanDuel Sports Network app) and have gotten a wide variety of lame excuses. For a restaurant in Cincinnati, not making that happen just feels like a missed opportunity—and frankly, a bit lazy.“

“Went for the first time and had a blast really good service by my dude Tristan. And great food as well.“

“It's a karaoke bar, with a lovely Dj,but a very small dance floor. It took a couple of minutes before we could get our drink order through. There were just 2 bartenders, and they were quite busy. We requested food but was told it wasn't available. It could have been the timing, or they were just short of staff I really can't tell. My friends and I had a good time. It was a good vibe. But if we want to go dancing, we will be going somewhere else.“

“First time going, definitely not the last time. Everything we had was delicious. It was like home cooking!!! Didn't have dessert, didn't have enough room for it. But the way everything tasted, I'm sure it would have been great too. A must go if you've never been.“

“For basic chicken tenders and fries it was delicious. Light attendance day so easy to find a wheelchair-accessible table, but most seating at the eating areas is benches. If unable to find an open accessible table, there are two seating spots with a lower counter at the new bar on the south side of this restaurant that are likely open. Wish the table area had better shade. None of the wheelchair spots were completely shaded.

Wheelchair accessibility: Several wheelchair-accessible tables.“

“We visited here on a Saturday and we had great service. I highly recommend the Pub Burger. We also were here a year ago, and I had the London Bridge fish sandwich, which was also perfect. My wife tried the KI salad. It was really heavy on the onion, which is odd for a salad with cheese crumbles, pecans, and cranberries. Also, the dressing was too sweet and they put too much on. Imagine the sweet onion sauce from Subway. It was an odd combination. Also, the only other downside was that tutor tots were the only side choice unless you wanted to pay an uncharged. Overall, the food is great, and I can't wait to try other menu options.“

“my husband and I first went here on a date night. we absolutely loved the atmosphere. we have returned twice since then, the last time we brought 3 friends with us and they loved it too. my favorite meal is the Baja fish tacos. I'm diabetic and these were a decent option for me. it's so fresh and light, plus the corn salsa on the side is amazing!! it's definitely a favorite date night dinner place.“

“Good food Great service Recommend“

“Really great local shop serving hot, fresh food. The owner is super nice and the staff is very friendly! I love the roast beef the most“
