Sotto

Sotto 118 E 6th St, Cincinnati Italian • $$$

“I've written many reviews of Sotto in the past; there is not much more to say. The menu has old favorites and very creative special dishes - all excellent. Service from Jason was top notch - accurate, timed perfectly, and personable. If you have to look for a slight minus - the restaurant can be a loud in the bar area and the romantic candlelight environment requires a flashlight for some folk in order to read the menu. A great place to dine for any reason - as the difficulty in getting a reservation illustrates.”

The grits were freshly made, the toast was to a perfection with butter melted, everything about the meals were on point. The staff keep the restaurant clean.

Brown Bear Bakery 116 E 13th St, Cincinnati Bakery • $

“Cincinnati, OH. Our grandson tells all his friends from out of town they have to visit Brown Bear Bakery; it’s #1 on his Must Visit in Cincinnati list. He’s got a following on social media for his bourbon and cigars reviews and is a Cincy native so we obeyed and came here.Saturday, half an hour after opening, there was a line of friendly relaxed people shivering in the cold wind and chatting happily about what might await them inside.It’s a small-ish shop with potted plants in the window, a few tables inside and a couple tables outside, barstool seating along the front window, and a busy bakery behind the amazing display of outlandishly good pastries.So I forgot the name of the people who were so welcoming, but they had blond curly hair (“Smiles served up here!”) and longer black hair. They were incredibly welcoming! And the real deal. Beyond customer service they were good people. They were also crazy foodies.“Which is your favorite?” I asked and the person with blond hair told me which items are seasonal, which sell out soon, and which are always there because they’re perennial favorites (the chocolate chip cookies).Everything I got was great!!! The cappuccino, carrot cake, raspberry topped almond croissant, cinnamon roll, mint matcha cookie, and chocolate chip cookie were better than we imagined. They really are unique recipes.Yeah, five pastries for the 2 of us. I said I was taking them to my grandchildren but they don’t really eat sweets. So…the 2 of us really enjoyed them!!We drove down the freeway sampling the divine goods and loudly exclaiming, “OH! This one is so good!!!” etc.If we lived here we’d be big as a house.Highly recommend!!!!”

We arrived at 8:30 pm after a long day of work (they close at 9 pm) and he couldn't be happier to serve us. I ordered the Moussaka with Meat and my fiance ordered the Lemon Chicken (Kota Lemonati). Each came with the most perfect and delicious rice, potatoes and steamed vegetables. Everything was cooked to perfection. The chicken was moist with an incredibly tasting gravy and my Moussaka was as good or better than any I have tasted before. I kissed my fiance when I arrived a little after her and he gave us a really sweet complement. I have to drive 20 minutes to go here but I see us eating here at least once a month. Excited to try other items on the menu. Thank you Sir!”

We also had a little bit of trouble when the waitress did not come to check on us for sometimes long periods of time. The restaurant and the experience were very nice and I think a lot of people would like this place.Parking: There is a parking lot where you can park yourself if just a little bit further away. The majority of the use of the parking lot that is close to the restaurant is valet parking so this is really nice if you are going with someone that is walking impaired or has trouble walking.”

Cincinnati Dinner Train 2172 E Seymour Ave, Cincinnati American • $$$$

“We had a gift certificate given to us for Christmas a couple of years ago that we finally got to use. The pros: It was a really good time having dinner on the train, being entertained and hearing some history. The staff was awesome and really went above and beyond. After dinner they highly recommended to explore the train, which we did. It was quite a ride back holding on as we were walking, but it made for some good laughs. Several groups of people dressed up forties style which was very cool. I would suggest if you have a special occasion to book well in advance if you can. Some of the cons: Also I felt that the price was a little high for what you got. Drinks were about average price these days, $12 a piece and tip added another $50. Also they sat us with another couple, which I wasn't a fan of, but oh well. Another thing, don't be expecting beautiful scenery on this ride. It was a lot of graffiti on the back side of buildings and shopping centers. Lol.”

Kroger Bakery 1 W Corry St, Cincinnati Bakery • $$$$

“I love my little ghetto Kroger. Why? Because it's mine. I've seen a man roll a huge cart of groceries/food out the side door to a waiting minivan with no shame, I've seen a hungry man just unrepentantly start eating fruit out of the produce section, I've waited 10 minutes at the meat counter for someone--anyone--to show, I've waited at the express self-checkout lane behind women who are clearly doing their monthly shop with carts of food and don't give a good GD about an item limit, I've personally been harassed by an employee half my age in the liquor store who didn't believe I was 46, and every time I'm there I see employees operating with a complete lack of urgency. I'll take this Kroger over the downtown Kroger any day of the week. Even with all the above mentioned issues, there's still a larger and more diverse selection of goods. Plus, you don't have to dodge a cluster of transients trying to hustle you for "spare" change or sell you an $8 bottle of rubbing alcohol. Kroger is a grocery store that sells groceries. If you're going for much more than that, you're asking for too much. You don't go to WalMart then rate them 2-stars because you couldn't buy a Lambo, now do you? For whatever Kroger lacks in its in-store experience/shelving/stocking/etc you should know they (somewhat) make up for it with their customer service. If you EVER have an issue with ANY Kroger, don't bother with the in-house managerial staff. They're slow to respond, ineffective, and will ignore clear issues in which they simply don't want to engage (I've witnessed it myself). You can just call the number on your receipt and you get to speak to a live customer service rep. They will escalate an issue above the site level, compelling an in-store resolution that you likely wouldn't have gotten if you'd wasted time trying to talk to someone at that Kroger (so no need to silently fume over anything). I just can't bring myself to hate on Kroger. Yes, sometimes the lines are so unpardonably long I've walked in and walked right TF back out, but it's a grocery store and human beings eat groceries. In life there are just times where you have to roll with a situation and embrace the suck. I've embraced Kroger. You should too.”

We began with the oysters and the bone marrow. If you've never had bone marrow like we hadn't, get it. I'm telling you that it's sublime. That was followed with the seasonal spring salad. I know this is a steakhouse and they do their steak as well as anyone, but I've never had a salad that good. It was the single best bite of the meal!After the salads, they brought out our 4oz petit filets, fingerling potatoes, and sauteed mushrooms and onions. We prefer to have small steaks and let it be an element of the meal rather than the meal itself and I'm so glad we did! The entire meal was delicious and I'd hate to have ordered a larger steak and missed out on the opportunity to try some of their other menu items.Finally, we wrapped up the meal with a creme brulee for each of us (they had two types so we got one of each and shared). Creme brulee is my favorite dessert and The Lonely Pine didn't disappoint!I can't wait to go back. I've been talking to folks at work about it all morning and several of them are excited to try the place as well.GO. Enjoy your night out. You won't be disappointed in taking my recommendation.Parking: We had no trouble finding street parking within 30 feet of the restaurant.

“Always fantastic. Go for the fries, stay for the blue cheese. Oh yeah, they have meats too. I usually get the spicy garlic on the wings, but they were kind enough to give me a cup on the side of the Chernobyl to try. It is very hot, but I would not say super hot. If you regularly eat habanero sauces and want more then this is probably a good heat level for you. It also has a good flavor, it’s not just hot for sake of being hot. Everyone there is super friendly also. Great atmosphere. Cool aesthetic. There is often live music on the weekends, which can be a bit loud and it definitely gets busy. Not a negative, just something to be aware of. Come during off hours if you don’t want that. I wish I could just buy a jug of the blue cheese. Maybe I can, but I haven’t asked.”

After dinner they highly recommended to explore the train, which we did. It was quite a ride back holding on as we were walking, but it made for some good laughs. Several groups of people dressed up forties style which was very cool. I would suggest if you have a special occasion to book well in advance if you can. Some of the cons: Also I felt that the price was a little high for what you got. Drinks were about average price these days, $12 a piece and tip added another $50. Also they sat us with another couple, which I wasn't a fan of, but oh well. Another thing, don't be expecting beautiful scenery on this ride. It was a lot of graffiti on the back side of buildings and shopping centers. Lol.”

“A great warm inviting speakeasy lounge industrial hybrid of a bar right above Goodfellas pizza shop. Grab a slice of pizza and a giant breadstick from below and head upstairs where they have incredible craft cocktails for reasonable prices in a very relaxed and inviting atmosphere with seating anywhere from couches to a classy bar to regular tables that can be pushed together to accommodate larger groups and an outdoor space! The bartenders are always extremely kind, knowledgeable, and great at crafting serious drinks of any sort. We love coming here for low key quality drinks and a quiet warm atmosphere with a touch of leather and wood and class to the air!”

“We dined here as a large group for a working dinner. Usually the service for this type of setting is understandably babe minimum. That was not the case here. The servers were outstanding, organized, efficient and very friendly! Very impressive and appreciated. The food was delicious. I enjoyed the German Sausage Platter which was an Avril Bleh bratwurst, beer baron sausage, brussels sprouts, applekraut, garlic mashed potatoes, whole grain mustard demi. This dish was hearty, savory and good to the last bite. We tried a few different beers here. I will say their German style beers are very good and well done. The Emancipator Dopplebock was my favorite here. Id stay away from the more American styles like the IPA's. The Juicy Press IPA was truly awful. Thank you Moerlein for a great dinner and excellent service!”

“Our third visit since they opened just a short time ago and once again a wonderful experience. This for US is a true dining experience-no “ rush through dinner and get out”. If you are looking for a 30 minute start to finish, I highly suggest going elsewhere! THIS is DINING! Enjoy a cocktail, then a well paced dinner. We would normally order each course all together but were dining with elderly parents who weren't sure what they wanted. This trip we tried the Korean corn dogs( yummy) and the shrimp and lobster “ cocktail “- it was lacking in quantity of lobster for the price was our only complaint. We had to get the Caesar salad which is a MUST and it served 4 adults easily! The lamb chops were prepared to PERFECTION and we tried the mashed potatoes which had a perfect amount of potato texture, not mushy at all. I couldn't resist the scallops AGAIN and they were so delicious and LARGE so I was able to share. Absolutely loved our visit and can't wait to come back and commit to trying different dishes next time! Well worth the price for US for a date night, special occasion. But can also make this a cost effective experience easily by sharing-see you all very soon”
