    Great visit. Josh and Becca did a great job taking care of us. Shrimp Kisses are a must have everytime I'm here along with the apple pie for dessert. The location is in the center of downtown. Two different managers checked on me and my date and made sure we were good.

    I wish I could say that this was a great experience but unfortunately it was not. First, this was a birthday dinner that had been arranged by my boyfriend. We arrived at our reservation time and were sat pretty quickly, at this point so far all good. I was wished a happy birthday, which was a surprise to me. The menu even had a birthday wish from McCormick and Schmidt. The server was very friendly and wished me a happy birthday. We placed our drink order. I had a cocktail the dragon kiss which was delicious but overpriced and not as pictured. It took a while to get our drinks, but that was OK as we were relaxing and enjoying our night. My boyfriend ordered coffee which he never received we ordered an appetizer the shrimp kisses by the way we're delicious but we had these without our drinks, I recommend the app if you do happen to go. He then ordered a cocktail. He received it after a long wait we placed our order for our main meal an hour and a half later we had not received our meals. We let the server know that we had tickets to an event and needed to leave in approximately 20 minutes if she could check on our food. She said the kitchen was backed up and that everybody was trying to get to an event so our food would have to take its place in line and come out as things were being prepared. About 15 minutes before we needed to leave some food arrived at the table. My boyfriend's food was correct, however mine was not. at this point I told the server to cancel my dinner as I was not going to try to eat fast just so that we could make our next scheduled event. I left the restaurant before my boyfriend to start walking to the event because the check did not come. The manager never came by to check on us after being told that he would. I'm very disappointed in how this was handled. I'm disappointed that my birthday dinner consisted of two shrimp and a cocktail. With no apologies from the management and no effort to make things right. We will not be returning.

    Fair lunch in the bar a couple weeks back while in town. I had the lobster bisque, the crab and shrimp cake, and their fabulous warm sourdough bread. Service by the bartender was friendly and attentive. Pleasant atmosphere.

    Service here was comically slow. We had a comfortable window seat in the bar, overlooking the Christmas tree in Fountain Square and weren't particularly in a hurry but it took 40 minutes to get a cocktail! We also ordered 3 apps, which came at the same time as the drinks. I do have to say all of the drinks and appetizers were very good. I had a raspberry mule which was very balanced and tasty. For apps, we got the ahi tuna (very good!), shrimp cocktail (just so-so), and Korean Fried chicken (which was very good as well but watch out for those little peppers! ) Once we asked for our bill, we had another long wait. Each time the server stopped by, he thanked us for our patience but they really do need to work on logistics or get some more help in the bar area. With a 20% tip, our bill for 2 happy hour cocktails and 3 happy hour appetizers came to $73.

    Wonderful food and great hospitality! On my recent business trip to Cincinnati, I decided to return to M&S. Located near the Westin hotel and the Fountain Square, the restaurant is in an excellent location. I ordered seafood entrees for dinner on both nights. The swordfish on the first night was done well, and salmon on the second night was very tender and tasty. Services were prompt and good at the restaurant. Prices were very reasonable as well. Great restaurant for seafood lovers!

    While I can appreciate a cheap happy hour, for such an elevated restaurant I was a little disappointed at the quality of the shrimp. It seemed overly dried out. On Fridays they have an oyster deal specifically at the bar. The length of time it took to get a cocktail was a little longer than I had hoped, but I appreciated the bartender taking the extra effort to pour fresh espresso for my espresso martini. The restaurant was not crowded at all (4pm on a Friday) and our party of 3 had no problem grabbing a table at the bar!

    Celebrated New Year's at this downtown spot. Location was great and the food was generally great. Two small complaints...first one, we ordered oysters and it took forever to get them. We also ordered the lobster bisque. Taste-wise the oysters were fabulous especially with the vinaigrette dipping sauce. However, I was disappointed in the lobster bisque. Croutons in this high end soup is unnecessary. It was already nicely paired with the complimentary sourdough bread. The main course of the salmon and sea bass was good. Just slightly on the salty side but others may love it that way. Service by Olivia was wonderful. Attentive and very accommodating as much as possible.

    I received a generous gift card for Christmas so my husband and I decided to visit for a date night dinner. I don't plan on returning. We had the crab cake for an appetizer which was the best part of the meal. Really good and the corn on the side was also good. My husband's steak was okay but he said the truffle fries were the best part of the meal. I ordered the blackened salmon at the top of the menu that appeared to be a "lighter" option, but it was absolutely swimming in butter. The butter was visible around the plate and kind of grossed me out. I was told the vegetable was broccoli and peppers but it was tough broccolini. The mashed potatoes were fine but were very buttery as well. I ate the salmon and left the rest while my husband ate just his steak. I am glad we weren't paying for the meal because it felt wasted. I was surprised the server didn't notice the grease around the plate.

    Tonight I stumbled into Ripple looking for a glass of wine and ended up finding exactly what I…read moredidn't know I needed. From the moment I sat down at the bar, owner Matt and the bartenders made me feel genuinely welcome. They took the time to learn my name, offer recommendations, and check in throughout the evening without ever being overbearing. It's a rare gift to make a solo guest feel seen while still giving them space to enjoy their own company. The food was outstanding. I ordered the baked brie with the honeycomb (trust me, get the honeycomb) and every bite was delicious. The combination of warm brie, puff pastry, honey, and nuts was incredible. Matt's wine recommendation was equally spot on. What impressed me most, though, was the atmosphere. Ripple strikes the perfect balance between sophisticated and comfortable. Whether you're on a date, catching up with friends, or simply enjoying a quiet evening alone, you'll feel right at home. I arrived as a first-time guest and left feeling like a regular. Covington is lucky to have this place. I'll definitely be back.

It's amazing and fun to watch the chef and people coming in and what they order from above! We had their Spanish flatbread which is very tasty and yummy. We also had their beef Wellington popovers, which is delicious! For main course i had salmon and husband had their Mac & cheese. All great, no complains! Very happy! Just surprised that they serve everything use one-time plate which is a little unusual for this type of place. We didn't had dessert but I'm sure it will be great too! This place is a little gem in Covington with lots of wine selection too, and it's 1st floor is bar and 2nd floor mostly restaurant, of course, we drink while we eating too! It's a nice find!
