Dear Cincinnati Dinner Train Management,I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude…read morefor the absolutely wonderful time my family and I had on the train. It was truly a spectacular evening from start to finish.While the historic cars and the delicious food were incredible, they were only a backdrop to the real stars of the evening. They say a journey is defined by the company you keep, but in this case, your staff was more than half the reason our night was so unforgettable. Their warmth, energy, and impeccable service transformed a great dinner into a collection of beautiful memories that my family will cherish for years to come. They truly went above and beyond to make us feel special.Thank you for running such a top-notch operation. Please feel free to reach out anytime if there is ever anything I can help you with in the future.Warm regards,George

Everything was decent. No complaints really. It wasn't something we are in a hurry to go back to though. Just decent bar food!

The Cherry tomato salad was such a different/ unique approach. Petite, but mighty with flavor, and I especially loved the spicy kick finish left on my taste buds. As a mushroom lover, I was thankfully steered toward the chestnut anolini and I absolutely loved it. Hubby loved his snap peas-carrots-beets salad, and the bite I had (despite not loving a couple of those items) had me thinking I made a mistake. The almond cake dessert with almond rosettes was next level amazing. It's restaurants like this that make me less apt to throw around 5 star reviews elsewhere, because most places don't deserve it, but this one does. I'll be back here every time I'm in Cincy!

We sat at the bar and the service was outstanding. Anybody we had contact with was really nice. Their short rib ravioli was incredible. The cauliflower purée had such a perfect taste, and then adding the edamame, the crumble, the micro greens, the truffle, it was all incredible. We could've eaten more of that for sure. The other thing we completely enjoyed was the lobster and shrimp papparadelle. What amazing flavors! Of the things we ordered those were our two favorites. Oh my gosh, I almost left out the donut holes. Also fantastic.

I got the lavender lemonade mocktail which was delicious and refreshing without being too floral or soapy. For dinner I got the braised short rib which was so tender you could cut it with a fork. The bone marrow demi glaze I could have a bowl of that stuff is phenomenal. The broccolini was roasted perfectly but I felt the potatoes could've used more seasoning. My mother got the lemon chicken pasta, which was good at the time, but when she got home it did not sit well with her. All in all, I would come back for the short rib, and I hope Alara finds a new location soon. The inside is nice and romantic seating, but it is cold ... like bring a jacket and it seems it doesn't matter the season it is colder inside because I saw a google review that also mentioned the temperature of the dining room.

What we drank/ate: -Bottle of red blend - Fine -Pineapple mocktail - Really good! -Garlic Bread - Delicious! -Fries with horseradish sauce - Loved the fries and sauce! Large portion. -Caesar salad - Fine, but not oustanding. -Vodka rigatoni x 2 - Delicious. Spicy. -Truffle fettuccine - Really good! -Medium rare steak frites - My son liked the sauce. I would pass on the sauce next time, because I thought it tasted like bacon. Upcharged $3 for truffle fries. Next time I would stick with plain. Son loved the garlic aioli (spicy). I preferred the horseradish sauce. -Hummingbird cake - Amazing!! Favorite dessert anywhere! -French press coffee - @ $5 this is a steal! Honestly, it was enough for our whole party and was really nice coffee! Everything was delicious and service was top notch! We love Sotto. We all agreed that Sotto's Caesar is better and the donuts are close, but Five wad better in every other way! We can't wait to return.

Jenna was our server and while she may be newer to this restaurant, she was a pro! She had great drink and food recommendations. Our meal was very much a "girl dinner". Cocktails from the Elderflower Gimlet, Love Getting Out There, champagne, and wine of course. Then instead of full meals we ordered a variety for everyone to share. For the table we had the Slow Roasted Meatballs, Broiled Artichoke, Burrata, and Frommage Fries. Everything was amazing! I wish we weren't too full to order more. Next time I have to try the Gnocchi Stroganoff! Instead of dessert we finished with Espresso Martinis, which had the perfect balance of sweet.

She made us feel completely comfortable and truly made an already wonderful meal even better. Exceptional service from beginning to end! The restaurant itself is adorable, modern, beautifully decorated, and has a lovely patio. But the service and food completely stole the show. We ordered several appetizers, including the bruschetta, fried green tomatoes, corn and ricotta dip, and pimento croquettes. I'm VERY picky, and I genuinely wouldn't change a single thing. Every dish was flavorful, perfectly balanced, beautifully presented, and cooked exactly right. The bruschetta was so good that we ordered a second round! The fried green tomatoes were perfectly crisp with a delicious sauce, and the pimento croquettes were crispy on the outside, creamy inside, and paired perfectly with the sauce and pickles. The corn and ricotta dip was delicious as well. Nothing was too salty, under-seasoned, overcooked, or missing anything. The flavors were spot-on across the board. For dessert, we had the peach butter cake with everything on the side. The cake was delicious on its own and even better with the ice cream. It's rare to try so many dishes and not want to change a single thing, but that was the case here. The food was top-notch, and Olivia truly made the experience. We will definitely be back and will absolutely recommend this place to others. Amazing food, amazing service, and an overall experience that went above and beyond.
