    Southwest Burger & fries
    Jeanee F.

    What was once a fabulous experience/food last time we visited, fell extremely FLAT on this visit. Service was slow, management seemed to only roll her eyes at her staff/ speak negatively and food was just average. My son's buffalo wrap was terrible and I was charged for a beer we never rec'd. I also witnessed the blonde hair manager take a bottle and throw it in anger after speaking to one of her male employees. She didn't seem to care who watched and proceeded to act fake nice as we were leaving. We WON'T b going back!

    Great place to grab a bite. We sat at the bar and the service was great and food delicious. The boneless chicken bites were juicy and full of flavor. I loved the garlic sauce that came with the breadsticks. Delicious. The bruschetta was perfectly toasted and packed with flavor. Will be back.

    Pepperoni pizza

    My fiancée and I had just left King's Island and suddenly wanted to find a nearby pizza place. We'd been by this place before but hadn't tried it yet so we decided to go. Perfect decision for wood-fire pizza fans like us! The atmosphere and service were certainly enjoyable too. Our server, Ryan, was very friendly and welcoming. Their food menu is pretty big and isn't limited to just pizza by any means. The drink menu is pretty big and loaded with different beers, wines, cocktails, and especially bourbons. We started with a couple libations, the house red blend wine for my fiancée, and a Rhinegeist Cincy Light for me. As for our orders, we went straight to what we came for, pizza. She ordered a margherita pizza and I kept it simple with a pepperoni pizza. We definitely didn't wait long at all before our pizzas were ready and both were delicious. The way I see it, if you can't make a good simple pepperoni pizza, you can't make a good pizza period, but they absolutely know how to make very good pizza. This spot is certainly worth a return trip.

    This place was okay when it came to the food. The service was fast and attentive. We where seated really fast. If you are looking for a nice place to eat this is a spot for sure

    Pretzel bites 4/10
    Kate M.

    Most importantly, the food was exactly what we needed. Something delicious and satisfying. We ordered the salmon tacos (super fresh, and great mango salsa), Mac & cheese (delicious), chicken bacon ranch wrap (the wood fired chicken was amazing!), chicken dumpling soup (very satisfying), two big beautiful salads and pretzel bites (only thing we found lacking, pretzels were tasteless, greasy and cheese was blan). Food was good, service was a slow start, took 15 min to get drinks ordered. But after that food was quick! Waitress was busy at lunch, but very kind. My biggest thing was that the booth we were in was very dirty, the ledge & top of booth suggests it's been a long time since it was cleaned. I really hope it was just that zone and not more of the restaurant. I didn't see until after we ate that another reviewer posted a similar cleanliness comment this week also. Still we loved the food.

    Cocktails that tasted like mocktails

    We were a party of 6 this evening. The menu sounded really good and we were excited to try this place out. Our cocktails tasted like mocktails. Then slowly our food came to the table. The first was soup served in a plastic take home container because there were no more bowls. It was good and hot. We laughed about it and moved on. Next, someone's side salad was brought. Followed a few minutes later by a buffalo chicken dip that tasted like all of the ingredients were put in a blender and then heated to serve. It wasn't bad but all agreed that this one was a bit odd. Next, two barely warm burgers were served followed by a pepperoni pizza. My husband's meatball hoagie and macaroni and cheese were served cold and could not be eaten. Finally my bang bang chicken and house salad came. The chicken was delicious! After speaking with the manager, my husband's inedible meal was removed from the tab and everyone was given 25% off. We stick to Firebirds next time.

    I stopped in for a carryout pizza during Cincinnati Pizza Week. The pizza was great and the employee greeted me promptly.

    I went here for lunch today while in town for a friend's wedding. We were looking to eat somewhere nearby and I saw this place on Yelp. I was really hungry so we started off with the pretzel bites, which were tasty. They come with a tangy honey mustard dipping sauce and also queso. They were $10 but apparently it was happy hour, kind of weird because it was 1:30 p.m., so we got $3 off. I got the steak sandwich and it was good but not fantastic. The fries were pretty good though. My friends got some of the pasta choices and also a burger. Overall I'd come back here but I might get a different entree.

    The food was decent and the portions are moderate. We went on a Friday afternoon, and even with a packed restaurant, the service was outstanding. It is a good modern bar to enjoy a beer while watching the game.

    Salad
    Kyle B.

    Very lackluster dinner at Barrel House. Started with the cranberry lime margarita which was $9 and I thought that was good value. Tasty drink. Ordered the breadsticks and they never arrived to the table. They were never put in. Asked for the burger medium. They accidentally gave our burger to another table. So they gave us a well done burger. I don't know why they just didn't make us a new burger??? Salad was pretty boring. Place was clean with lots of parking. Lots of tvs with sports on. Clean. Still won't go back.

    Pizzas!!!

I wish their bootleg bread was a little bigger for the price, but again this flavor can't be beat! We had the stockyard pizza, house, salad, pepperoni bootleg bread, and we ordered an extra container of branch to take home with us. I will also note that both times I've gone to two cities, the young person at the counter was genuinely kind and courteous. It was just enough to mention that I noticed, because many times anymore that is missing from customer service in general. Looking forward to our next trip to the Cincinnati area and hoping to dine in for that experience.

Best mozzarella sticks: it's obvious it's a higher quality mozz than whatever everyone else uses. Crispy perfection! Best GF/cauliflower pizza: lots of toppings to choose from (though somehow chicken isn't an option on DD) and again, from the mushrooms to the sauce, you can taste the difference. They make the sauces in house! According to my husband, best Chicken Parm he has had since moving here! You get a healthy portion. And...best cannoli in the area! Growing up in a predominantly Italian and Polish area, I have been lucky to have REALLY good Italian pastries...and their cannoli was reminiscent of those times. This has been the ONLY cannoli in the greater Cincy area that is worth consuming, IMO. All in all, we would dine in at Il Gusto constantly, if we lived closer. Glad they're on DoorDash though!

Yesterday we tried the Corner deli and we had a great experience. Tony was friendly and patient as we asked many questions. :). Very nice guy who knows how to make a very flavorful pizza. PLUS, They sell by the slice!! This was awesome for me because my family all likes a different topping setup. Due to this we almost always just get cheese pizza which we have grown to love and a good cheese pizza can be amazing but toppings are a nice change! Anyway, I got a piece of cheese pizza and a piece with meatball and onions. I enjoyed both a great deal. The meatball/onion combo are very flavorful and enhanced the cheese pizza a great deal.... Then I had the piece of cheese pizza and I have become boring and just love the simplicity of the cheese pizza and Tony makes a great slice of cheese pizza! Maybe get meatballs on the side next time is what I am thinking. We ordered the small salad and LOVED the Balsamic Vinaigrette (Tony mentioned it was homemade)... It was a fresh salad that we shared so it was cool that we could get the croutons and the cheese On the side.... Husband doesn't like them but I think they make the salad :) We had a very nice experience and I look forward to coming back and trying the gravy fries.
