Recently stayed at the Hyatt Regency in Cincinnati and arrived a bit early for check-in, so I decided to stop into Red Roost Tavern, which is conveniently located inside the hotel. I had an hour or two to kill and figured I'd grab some lunch and a few drinks. I ordered the Tavern Burger, and honestly, it exceeded my expectations for a hotel bar. Juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right--l it felt more like something you'd get at a stand-alone pub. To go along with it, I had an espresso martini (perfectly made) and a couple of beers, including one of the local Cincinnati brews on tap, which was a nice touch and very reasonably priced. The bartender was awesome friendly, attentive, and knew how to make a proper cocktail. Bar seating was comfortable, and the overall vibe has that cozy tavern feel that makes you want to linger a bit longer. For what it is, this place nails it. Definitely one of the better hotel bars I've been to, and I see no reason not to give it a solid 5/5.

This restaurant is inside the Hyatt Regency in Cincinnati. I came in early to try their breakfast. The food was quite good with a large portion. I tried an omelette with potatoes. They also put a salad on the side ... which was kind of strange. The coffee was just okay. Overall, the service was good. The food came out fast but then no one really came back to check on me. You have to order before sitting down and tip. So I feel like my tip was not really put to good use. The decor is nice and the restaurant is very clean. I would definitely like to try their dinner next time!

Typical hotel bar located inside the Hyatt Regency Cincinnati. The bartender was friendly and the bar was very clean of course. Their menu isn't anything super exciting, just your typical sandwiches, burgers, and wings. I got the spring pasta entree to take up to my room. There is no room service here btw. The pasta was a little al dente for my liking, but I enjoyed the sweet potato puree and hert covert. The pistachios added a nice little crunch. I still don't know how I felt about the gorgonzola. It was a bit strong for this dish. The dish was overall fine and did the job as I just wanted to get something in my belly after a day or travel. I also got the Bardstown Bourbon cocktail which was pretty good. It was definitely more pineapple/sweet forward than I expected, but it had a really great flavor.

I visited the establishment on Friday evening and sat at the bar. Scott was the bartender who took care of me and provided excellent customer service. He's friendly, engaging, and overall a really nice guy - just what I would hope all bartenders to be. I was torn on what to order as the menu has a little bit of everything from starters, salads, sandwiches and full entrees. I decided on the Tavern Burger- Ohio wagyu beef, Tilamook cheddar, lettuce, pickle, onion and tavern sauce for $18 with an option of fries or side salad. I went with the fries. The burger was honestly not the greatest. The beef tasted odd, the bun soggy as seaweed, and the flavor was just that - flavorless. Perhaps going with something else might have been the move to make next time.

Our server was very sweet and attentive. The bartender is skillfully talented. That cherry cola melted my long day away. The burger totally hit the spot as well. It's a nice place. Very spacious doesn't feel so crowded. I like that.

Dinner and drinks at the Red Roost Tavern was a perfect nightcap after a long day of travel. I walked in on a slow Sunday night. I initially waited to be seated trying to adhere to the sign that instructed me to do so, but after minutes passed by and I saw no one other than the bartender and a perfectly good bar I decided just to sit at the bar. The Red Roost Tavern had a typical hotel restaurant feel - generic and forgettable - but there were plenty of televisions to see the Sunday night football games. The bartender was fantastic. I never saw another employee the entire night but she ran food, made drinks, bussed plates all the while being engaging and conversational. She is the type of bartender who can make any customer feel at ease. The food was good. I ordered a burger and it was delicious. It wasn't a "go out of your way" for burger, but it was above my expectations. Juicy, flavorful, perfect thickness of the bun. The French fries were the classic golden fries that were a bit bland. The Regency Revenge was a great drink - it was basically a margarita variety but was well balanced, slightly tart, and quite refreshing. It was a good experience!

Stopped in for lunch and ended up having a cocktail. The bartender was very nice ....the cocktail was delicious. Loved the bar. Will definitely visit again.

This was the worst pour I've ever had. I don't even think it was a full shot. $14 for a sip of Baileys. Cheers!

We decided to come to Red Roost Tavern before going to Blink Cincinnati 2019. They took a reservation at the time we wanted and there menu had a variety of items. From the time we arrived we were pleasantly greeted 4 times and seated at a high top, which was fine with us. I got a Prosecco and the fish tacos. My son got a burger with the waffle fries. The Prosecco was good. I was surprised they didn't have a half split, but we were the bar in the Hyatt so everything was priced a little higher. The fish tacos were outstanding. The sauce on them was great. My son scarfed down his burger - he said it was perfect. He got it without all of the additions on it (sauce etc). He ate about half of the waffle fries - they were a little greasy, but good. Great service - she could not have been any nicer!! I gave it a four star since I thought the prices were a bit high.

Place was pretty dead when we went, we ordered take out. ALL our fries were kind of burnt, dark brown and tasted burnt too, the smoked tomato grilled cheese had a VERY strong smoke flavor, the pretzel was good but the beer cheese for dipping was gross, I don't like using that word when it comes to food, but it was! Not sure if it was past it's date or what but it was sour and funky tasting. Don't think I'd go here again.

First the service was extremely slow. We waited 45 minutes for our food. However, the place was pretty busy so they were doing their best. The reason for the one star review is the quality of the food. We paid $16 dollars for only 6 chicken wings and they weren't even good. Attached is a picture of the almost $3 wing. I also had the "Waygu" burger. It was just terrible.

Had dinner with colleagues in a group of 4. Good experience, hostess was occasionally distracted when seating groups. I liked the catfish po-boy with a side of collard greens and the dessert.

Great place to eat if you're staying in the Hyatt and don't want to go out. Decor is classy with "in style" wood features and beautiful lights. I had the spicy avocado burger and parmesan herb fries. Delicious! Also had the Daisy margarita! Drinks are strong, food is large in portion. Only reason for the 4 and not 5, the price. I have to give them a break though, it is downtown Cincinnati and conveniently inside the hotel.
