    Trash Overflowing by 5pm

    This is, without a doubt, the grossest restaurant I have ever eaten at in my life. I genuinely regret not checking the restroom before sitting down to eat. If I had, I would have walked right out. The conditions in this all-you-can-eat buffet are appalling. The restroom is filthy--there's what appears to be blood in an overflowing trash can, the base of the toilet looks like it has never been cleaned, and rusty, rotting metal is visible everywhere. The windowsills are literally falling apart, showing severe rot and peeling paint. As for the food? Most of it was lukewarm at best, which is a major food safety concern. The entire place made me feel so disgusted that I'm genuinely questioning whether I should call the health department. I'll consider myself lucky if I don't get food poisoning. Avoid this place at all costs. I wish I had.

    I've been coming here my whole life and it never disappoints! Great service the whole staff is super nice and the food leaves me speechless. There's a wide variety of food and always fresh and super tasty make sure to stop by!

    Pretty good classic buffet. Not too expensive and lots of great options. The wait staff was fast and we got in and out within an hour. Food was fresh but could have been hotter. I do wish that there were more dessert options.

    There was a mouse on the floor. They did give me a free meal. Not going back.

In addition to weekly slot play on my card (everyone's amount is different based on play rate) they also give me an amount to spend on food and beverage in the food outlets within then casino. On this trip I ended up having a milk shake from the coffee shop and also picked up some bourbon sugar pecans and a candy bar to fill out my allowance. You cannot get alcohol with this allowance. I will continue to stop in here to play as I am in Cincinnati pretty often. They also have a little gift shop inside if you want anything with the Hard Rock logo.

Take for instance they offered a candy bar golden ticket that allowed a player to win up to $10,000, but failed to provide staff to handle the crowd redeeming tickets, leaving players an over an hour wait that kept players from gambling. I used the men's room twice next to players services only to find a mediocre effort to keep it clean. Each time I went to wash my hands to find sink loaded with soap run over and soaked sink area, while the attendant stood by the sink texting on his phone. Both times. I used to see security from the Hamilton County Sherifs Office all the time. This day I didn't see any, the cruiser was parked in the lot but you feel very unsafe in the parking area. Food was at a medium level. Where is management?

    I love Swampwater Grill! My BFF is an enormous crawfish fan, so we definitely always make it there…read morefor a couple of dinners during the spring season but it's a year-round destination for us. I'm not a crawfish person (too much work) so I usually get the Louisiana BBQ shrimp (which is NOT BBQ sauce - it's like butter and herbs and it's spicy but in a cumin way, not a Tabasco way). This time I got the wings that come with the same sauce and they are 10/10. Ranch dressing is housemade and the real deal. The char-grilled oysters are not to be missed. Happy hour has deals on both food and drink (as all good happy hours should) and includes oysters. Overall, prices are super fair because the portions are huge and most things come with a side or two. The jambalaya is worth bringing home if you don't have room and the cornbread is moist even the next day. And it's weird but I like the side salads, they aren't just white iceberg lettuce and two cherry tomatoes. Service has always been great. You can't get seated until at least half of your party is there but that's fair. We accidentally got a table for six and had eight show up and they just let us pull up a couple chairs and get in their way but acted like it was no big deal. Get there early because it fills up quick, including the parking lot. It's an old-school restaurant and the decor fits. It's got corny signs, tables made out of wine barrels and a fireplace in the corner. There is outside seating that I haven't sat at (I mean it overlooks a parking lot and there is usually someone smoking but at least it's there). There is a grumpy but capable bartender and young people working the host/ess stand who greet you cheerily and always say goodbye on the way out. Swampwater is right next to the Riverside Antique Mall, so make it a day and do some shopping beforehand. Both are more than worth the visit.

    We had an excellent experience at K Town BBQ and Hotpot, and it absolutely lived up to the hype…read more We came for the hot pot lunch, and the all-you-can-eat option was outstanding. Everything tasted incredibly fresh--from the meats to the vegetables to the noodles. You could tell right away that quality matters here. The selection was generous and thoughtfully curated, with fantastic options that made it hard to stop at just one round (or two... or three). The broths were flavorful without being overpowering, and the dipping sauces let you customize every bite exactly how you want it. It was one of those meals where you keep saying, "Okay, just one more scoop." On top of the food, the atmosphere was great--clean, lively, and perfect for sitting back and enjoying the experience without feeling rushed. It felt both fun and relaxed, which isn't always easy to pull off with an all-you-can-eat setup. If you're looking for fresh ingredients, tons of variety, and a genuinely enjoyable dining experience, K Town BBQ and Hotpot is a must-try. We'll definitely be back--and probably hungry just thinking about it again.

Our waiter was brand spanking new and freaking out with everything. Everytime we ran out of meat with grilling the plate would burn for a while til our waiter would come back and it would be burnt super burnt and smoky. It seemed like a great place to bring your family but I didn't really have a great experience there.
