    We're currently dining here and it's been an amazing find! We got both chicken and beef empanadas…read more The seafood tostones and the egg rolls and it was all so so good!!! I FINALLY got my pina colada (so many places don't have it) and this is one of the best I've had!!!! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! The food the drinks the service was excellent! They also have $5 margs, sangria and mimosas!!!

    We went for Valentine's Day and the experience didn't live up to the billing. For $200, we could've…read moregone to Chophouse. Service Despite having a limited menu specifically for Valentine's Day, service was slow. It took two hours to get through all three courses. We had the same server as the last time, and she was still warmer to my wife. I'm a customer too and will gladly spend my money elsewhere. Another thing I find annoying is they're always trying to get you to buy a bottle of wine. When I saw the special menu on Open Table, it didn't mention alcohol. We tried to substitute the required bottle of wine with mocktails, but that was a no-go. Presentation: 11/10: They make some of the most beautiful drinks and dishes. Every dish is magazine-worthy. Food Ropa Viega--8/10-the meat was chewy, but had a good flavor. The cornbread was ok. Crabmeat Spring Rolls--8/10--these were different, like a crab cake inside of an egg roll. Hanger Steak--7/10--the steak had the texture of roast, and reminded me of my appetizer. The execution, while pretty, didn't align with my expectations. Baked Banana Mango Cheesecake: 7/10: I like that it was light. Oftentimes cheesecake is heavy. Pan de Pan--5/10--I didn't try the ice cream, but this is not a good take on bread pudding. It was way too dry and didn't have much flavor. Green Passion Mocktail--9/10--cucumber-forward, but still pretty tasty and satisfying.

    My wife and I have been meaning to try out Valencia and finally got around to it for a birthday…read morelunch today. Valencia, near downtown Covington, is a stylish, contemporary presence featuring tapas and traditional Spanish cuisine, with a respectful nod to the local culture. Service was friendly and attentive today, with Dara providing valuable info on menu offerings and taking excellent care of us. Today we enjoyed their specialty tapas; a Valencia roll, fried calamari, and a brand new offering - fried chicken pesto flatbread. All were excellent, with the roll having a sumptuous glaze and the calamari packing a tasty jalapeño punch. The flatbread, which we found out that we were the first to try, may have been the star of the show; generously portioned, with a thin crust, moist chicken and a zesty , but not overpowering, pesto finish. Although we were too full for dessert, several appealing ones were available. A number of specialty cocktails were also featured. We enjoyed their sangria. We look forward to returning to Valencia!

    Well, I've never been to Spain. But I kind of like the food. They say the cooks are insane, and…read morethey really know how to feed you. They don't overcook it, never gonna leave you hungry, I can't refuse it. Prior to my trip to Valencia, I had never had real Spanish food. I have had lots of Latin American food, but true Spanish food was not something I had tried. Now that I have, I am hooked. Valencia is amazing. I went with a group one night at their recommendation. I had other ideas for downtown Covington, but this is where they wanted to go. Suprisingly my youngest kid agreed to go too, which turned out great. Valencia is located in an old house that has served as several restaurants before. I always loved the location and have loved several of teh other spots. But Valencia takes the cake. It is fancy without feeling pretentious. Intimate despite being loud and popular. So many great things to say about the vibe. The food, however, is the star, even with the amazing ambiance. We started with calamari and creamy goat cheese. Both were stellar. The creamy goat cheese was so light and rich. The calamari was perfectly fried and incredibly fresh. Delicious! My entrée was the skirt steak, which I chose over the ribeye. I made the right choice. It was just like all of the other food, rich and delicious, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor unlike anything I have had before this meal. One word of caution. My kid had the charred octopus, and it was good, but it was indeed charred. I tried it and liked it, but it may have exceeded her taste buds. But, ladies and gentlemen, is how we learn. I cannot say enough great things about Valencia. PS If you are staying at the Southern, you can walk here!
