Restaurants near Fort Thomas

“This place has a 4.9 rating (at the time of this review) for good reason. The food is always super fresh at a super reasonable price. The owners are great as well. It is both vegetarian and meat-eater friendly. Do yourself a favor and stop by.Parking: In addition to street parking, there is a huge community parking lot behind the building that is free.”

“Loved the cute vibe that Grassroots has, and the employees were happy and knowledgeable. They recommended their favorites, and were spot on when they said their gluten free carrot cake was so moist and flavorful that you couldn't tell it lacked the gluten. The flatbread was delicious, and the puréed Roma tomatoes that topped the pizza were to die for. Loved the combo of Roma and pesto on the thin, crisp, flatbread. This would be a cute place to go to when the sun is shining so you could eat on the outdoor patio and then stroll the downtown shops. The majority of the tables seemed more suited for two people's dining, but they did have dining enough for four. It isn't a place for a large party, unless you called and arranged something ahead of time. I gave it 4 stars for lack of variety on the menu, but overall it was a nice place to go for a bite to eat. If you were only going for a cocktail, this would be a definite contender to sit down and relax with a drink.”

“Great family atmosphere, fun food options from The Gruff, and super friendly service. Recommend for family fun night out that everyone can enjoy!Kid-friendliness: Play area foe kids”

“Exceptional coffee shop: great atmosphere, outstanding customer service and hospitality, and quality food and coffee. Among the best I have been to!Kid-friendliness: Family and kid oriented like no other with an indoor play area for the little ones”

“Great place in Ft Thomas to come on for a beer and a game on the TV. Just a great local tavern feel. Street parking 2 hr limited but I say screw it... you're enforcing the local businesses. Have a drink, strike up some conversation on Reds, Bengals.... Heck anything and get into the local vibe.”

“All the food is excellent but the chicken wings might be the best is the area. I have enjoyed wings from all around Greater Cincinnati but none are as good as Tickle Pickle wings. Service is outstanding and the place is very clean.”

“Been here several times and it's always been great! Done eat in, and take out and haven't had a complaint. Meatball hoagie is delicious and so are the pizzas! If you're in ask for the specials because it's bound to be delicious. The jalapeño popper pizza was awesome. And the staff is always friendly”

“I online order at this location as they accept coupon codes on the app and the Newport location does not. Sandwiches have alway been made correct and ready by the time the app says they will ”

“I love the boba here so much!! ice cream too!! it’s so cute and affordable, definitely recommend coming! Lucy J is one of the employees, and she is so kind and welcoming!!”

“We had our daughters 6th birthday party here and it was awesome! John and Lauren were super hospitable and the space is adorable. Highly recommend as a venue for any ”

“Out of this world service. You literally will be like "Woah, we are on a different planet!" And then you will be a little sad because you are just on silly old Earth. But then you realize that you can get more Snappy Tomato pizza. But then the planet thing happens again. So roller-coastery but overall great!”

“Favorite take out and dine in restaurant for my family. We are so happy to have New Garden and all the staff as part of our community and providing warm service and good food. Food is always fresh. Large portions, super tastey. Favorite place for take out sushi and hot sour soup on cold days! I would recommend anything from their menu and it will be prepared well.Kid-friendliness: They have a nice little kids menu for the picky eaters.”

“Excellent pizzeria, in a neat little part of town. The pretzel rolls were delicious, as were all of the sides we tried. The pizza itself was great. Small town bar/pizzeria ambience, with great food and service. We will be visiting again!Parking: Parking in a back lot is available.”

“Had a great lunch at a reasonable price and incredible staff! Lydia did a great job!! Will def be back!”

“We had a wonderful meal with another couple and we couldn't figure out why it had been such a long time since we had been back. Our sever was knowledgeable and helpful taking four different and complicated orders without a pen in had and everything came out flawlessly!!! Well done. All of our dishes were delightful.”

“Shareable menu items that are tasty and unique…smelt fries and duck fat fried potatoes. Delicious. Great service and oh yeah - Longfellow charm all the way.”

“Authentic Hawaiian cooking - so delicious! Family owned and run. Excellent and friendly service. Don't pass up the custard pie (Val's mother's recipe)!”

“Let me tell you… we asked around town about a good pizza experience and everyone said you have to go to Strong’s in Newport. They were correct, we had a fabulous experience. The food was delicious fresh and the ingredients were fresh. The owner was a friend by the end our dinner. Such a great evening with fantastic food.”

“Our favorite restaurant in the area. I'd put their filet mignon up against any steak house. Atmosphere is very laid back but classy. Drinks are unique and excellent.”

“Outstanding in every way. Stopped in for a much-needed meal on the high route from Nashville to Philly.. could not have been more impressed with both food and service. One of the best meals I’ve had in a while.. everything was superb.”

“Do you ever find yourself eating somewhere and thinking “wow this is the best XYZ i’ve ever had!!” yeah, that was me when trying Golden Hands. Aside from their top tier customer service, their desserts/donuts are next to the best things i’ve ever tried in MY LIFE!!! everything is incredibly fresh and has so much flavor. not all donuts are created equal! i highly recommend you try Golden Hands. the price point can’t be matched either. you will pay more at the “competitor” donut places, i guarantee it!!! you won’t be disappointed!!!”

“Been a few times. Great place... but last night my steak was over cooked and the service wasn't the best. Assume it was just an off night... but have to say was a little disappoint, given it usually is outstanding.”

“This was our first time and the food was excellent. Our server was wonderful providing suggestions and recommendations.”

“The service was awesome. Waiter constantly checking on us. Explained menu and made good recommendations. Then came the food. Went outside of my usual box. And the food was awesome. But make sure you leave room for dessert you won't be disappointed.”

“Nice atmosphere and service. Homemade pasta!”

“Beautiful restaurant. The staff were good, except for our server. She was constantly trying to push alcohol at us, and we weren’t planning on ordering any. When we got there,We told her we were waiting on two others. Before the people we were waiting on arrived, she must have asked us 3-4 times if we were ready to order drinks other than water. Then after the others arrived, it was another 3-4 times. After we repeatedly said that we were going to stick with water. Then after our meal was finished and we were ready for dessert, she brought a complimentary glass of wine for each of us. I was appalled. After we sat there all night telling her that we didn’t want alcohol. I am thankful that we didn’t have someone at our table who was a recovering alcoholic. I mean, can you imagine? I’ve waited tables before, and if I had a whole table be so insistent on not ordering alcohol, I’m definitely not bringing them free drinks. She claimed it was because we were celebrating our anniversary. Well, maybe bring a free dessert instead or something. Or just say happy anniversary. She also interrupted us a lot, like came over and talked over us while we were in the middle of conversation. And she talked A LOT. I mean, we were trying to have a nice celebratory dinner and she was constantly interrupting and talking. I gave the service a four star rating because every other employee that we dealt with was awesome. If it wasn’t for her, it would have been five stars.The food was pretty good. I forgot to take pics, because I try not to have my phone out at a nice dinner. But I ordered the beef tartare, foie gras, and spring pea cappellacci. Beef tartare and foie gras are my two favorite dishes. The ones here were good, but they were probably the ones that I liked the least out of all the places I’ve tried them. The tartare was served with tiny little delicate waffle chips that broke immediately if you tried to put the beef on it. So I ended up just eating the beef with my fork, which was a first. It was also under seasoned. The foie gras seemed either of a lesser quality than I’ve had in the past, or not prepared as well. Usually, cutting through it is as easy as cutting through room temperature butter. There were times that the foie gras squished when I tried to cut it. The cappellacci was stunning. Really quite good. I did not expect that to be my favorite dish.Overall, I loved the atmosphere. Food was good but not great (especially for the price), and the server needs to work on her approach. Probably won’t go back.”

“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 !!”

“Most memorable and tasty meal we have had in Cincinnati. Absolutely delicious shrimp entree. Shareable style. Sought after reservations and limited walk in availability. Great for groups to be able to split more food options. Paid for parking lots nearby.”

“As the other reviews below, we had a great experience for lunch. The owner is super kind and attentive. The chicken shawarma, hummus and kibbeh were authentic and tasty. Support small businesses like this!”
