“Had a great time here last Thursday evening. Robert the bartender was the reason we enjoyed our night so much. He was friendly, welcoming and very funny. It’s a nice casual spot in Mt Adams to watch a game or just hang out with Robert!! We tried to return on Saturday night but it was so packed we couldn’t get in. Thanks for the great service, Robert. Hope to see you during our next visit.“

“MOTR continues to be one of the best places to see both local and touring acts in Cincinnati. OTR is a special place, so having MOTR in the center of it - as the center of it - is really awesome and something I appreciate. Also, who doesn't love super crispy tater tots?“

“The food and service was great!“

“Truly a wonderful experience. I have been here before and it was awesome. Brought my boyfriend to try it. His grandma is from England. He grew up with all these dishes. Loves to cook them. The environment & great food brought back many good memories of her. Thank you for that!!! Our server was genuine, efficient & friendly. Yummy food. I had your Fish- wow! The best!!! Thank you!!! ❤️.“

“Take out order for 3. French dip, not as described, bun not toasted tasted old and the ajus was onion soup, so thick you couldn't dip your sandwich in it. All our fries soggy cold half cooked. You couldn't pay me to go back there. Big disappointment after reading reviews.“

“My family went to Cincinnati to see the Bengals. We stayed in Covington Kentucky. On Christmas eve there isn't a lot open. We went to the Main st in Covington and stumbled across Zola. We were happy we did. They food was tasty and fair portions. Service was outstanding. Thanks for being open. Cheers.“

“Friendly neighborhood pub. Not sure if they serve food. Only saw popcorn. Drink prices reasonable, pours were generous. D.J. was soinnin' some great music. He did an 80's block that took me back to the ridin the rails skatin days. Thumbs High. ?“

“Great place, great people, music darts and pool!“

“I love this place 🥰. Sammy is the best bartender, always trying new drinks.“

“It was a great experience from service to food. Highlights includes: The scotched egg was perfectly cooked. The duck fat fries was hot and not greasy. The goat cheese and honey butter on the bread board melted in our mouths. Totally good meal.“

“First visit. Got the special… best French Dip sandwich I’ve had. Baguette was perfection for this dish. Will be back.“

“Murder Mystery Dinner was a lot of fun. Food was great! Everyone had a great time!“

“Dingle House has a tremendous Irish Pub we found in Westchester. The first we noticed is that it was a very visually appealing restaurant with a cool looking structure and great decor. We started off with an appetizer of Jack Cheese Sticks served with marinara sauce. It was a different cheese stick than any I've ever had as it was almost eggroll shaped with the cheese on the top. In any case the jack cheese was fantastic and fried to perfection. For my main course I got an Irish staple that being the Fish And Chips. The fish was a fantastic haddock that was crispy and delicious served with a super tartar sauce. The chips (American fries) were fantastic as well especially dipped into the tartar sauce. Simply a delicious meal in every way. The wait staff was great as well and all appropriately dressed for an Irish Pub. This was tremendous in every way and I can't wait to come back.“

“Recently had a 30th birthday at Molly’s. They were super easy to book with, no outrageous room hire costs! They were very accommodating and we had a great night“

“Great neighborhood bar. Great bartenders, fantastic beer selection, but if you’re looking for food, you’re in the wrong place go across the street or next-door to Mo Chico or Tequila.. This is my favorite neighborhood. Hang out. Parking on the street or across the street in the Paige lot, or behind building on free parking deck.“

“A quiet and welcoming little nook nestled amongst all the glitter of nearby franchises it offers a simple and inexpensive menu. We were greeted quickly upon arrival and offered our choice of seating. Bartenders and waitstaff introduced themselves and genuinely inquired about how your day has been. If you’ve been here before they remembered you. Dinning was relaxed and easygoing, no rush to order or pressure to upsell you. Food arrived quickly presented simply but attractively. Prices are reasonable and much lower than surrounding venues. Thanks for a really good experience Ian. Anytime I’m in Cincinnati I’ll be coming back.“

“Exceptional service, food, and atmosphere! Very friendly staff and amazing beers! 10/10 recommend!“

“Ok, just got home. Truth review. I had a twistin and shakin time!! The band was Memphis Rhythm Review and they brought it! It. Was. Broughten y'all!! Props to Brian for bringing them in! Find the band, follow them, and the bar, for good music and dancing. Thanks again for a fun night!“

“Awesome hole in the wall away from the Mainstrasse. You need to check it out!!“

“Absolutely the best burger you can get. This place is a historic gem and an icon of Cincinnati“

“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“The epitome of the friendly neighborhood bar. My husband and I just started dropping in occasionally and everytime we are welcomed warmly by staff and patrons alike. Food is above average, drinks are great and the atmosphere is warm. My kind of place.“

“Best dive bar around the madville mariemont area.“

“great food and very generous portions“

“One of the best bars in Norwood. Sara, Amy, and the rest of the bartenders are amazing.“

“was recommended by another DJ fir karaoke 🎤 singing“

“Fun atmosphere! Very friendly patrons!“

“It's really heartwarming to see a mini curbside food pantry there also that you can contribute to and share your extra blessings with people. I like that these are popping up in the city. I've seen one in Northside also, by the old IGA and rec center.“

“So fun. ! I love it here.“

“I’ve been looking for a place here in Cincinnati that can make me a Lobster and Crab grilled cheese like I had at the LAX airport a few months back. They were able to add the lobster to a grilled cheese but not the crab meat and it was good just a tad bit salty but I would definitely try again. Really appreciated them making the accommodation. Rest of the food was good except for the Coleslaw, just too different for my taste. Bacon cheeseburger was better than average. Mozzarella sticks were ok. Waitresses was ok, not as conversational as we are use to but serviceable. Price was reasonable for 2 meals, a speciality sandwich, and an appetizer. We agreed to give this establishment a 8 out of 10 overall. Definitely will return.“

“Stopped by for dinner from out of town. This place was excellent! It was so good that we ate there again two days later for lunch and had just as good of an experience. Friendly, professional wait staff and phenomenal food. The cheese fries were on point and the chicken and pork chop sandwiches were two of the best I've ever had. I'm jealous of what the locals have with this restaurant.“

“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.“

“I haven't been here in like 4 years but I still think about the Yo Mama Burger on a regular basis. It's honestly a crazy thing to put into your body but it was without a doubt the best hamburger I've ever had. I hope one day I'll go back to Cincinnati and do it again.“

“Best bar in Covington and northern KY.“

“One of the staff thought it'd be 'funny' to try and steal my purse. I was watching the band play and he tried to take my purse from me. He only stopped pulling on my purse when my friend and I yelled at him. He tried to play it off as a joke. I didnt get his name. We left after the incident. This place is not safe for women when staff are behaving like this.“

“Juut the place to relax & have fun“

“The atmosphere inside is like no other. The Greenwich is a hidden gem in Cincinnati. Jazz, Blues, Big Band, Recitals, Orchestra, Spoken Word, Funk, R&B and Pure Love! Great place to work. My coworkers are awesome. So is my Boss. I have to say The Artists are my absolute favorite. I love each and everyone of them. Art lives and breathes in the Greenwich and I feel special to be part of such a special place. The drinks are cheap, the private live events I work have changed my life. The guests are something special too. Some have become life long friends. I would recommend you be a part of history because this place is actually historical.“

“Every Tuesday my coworkers and I come to hanks because Chris and Josh just know how to take care of their people. The laughs we have with them make it worth it every time. Couldn’t come here and have a blast like we do without them. Wouldn’t want to frequent this pub knowing they weren’t there. Thankful for Josh and Chris’ service. They are our favorite!“

“Nice, relaxed atmosphere.“

“I plan events all over the Cincy area and I have to say this staff is phenomenal. Easy to work with, always professional with a “we will make it work” attitude.“

“O'Malley's in the Alley is a really fun pub in downtown Cincinnati. A local friend of mine took me there last Thursday afternoon and we really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. He had a quesadilla and I had the fish and chips, which was recommended by the bartender. The fish was heavily battered - which I loved, and both fillets were large and tasty. In particular, their tartar sauce was really good. The bar was quiet (as it probably should be for a mid-afternoon), but I bet it revs up on game nights, etc.“

“5 out of 5!!!me and my friends doing the bourbon trail came all the way from North Carolina up to visit. Awesome wings, awesome staff, and most importantly awesome sports on the tv’s. Definitely will be going back. Thanks for doing Carolina proud with yalls Carolina gold bbq sauce.“
