    The frisco melt
    Avatar P.

    Better than last time Food was better, place was cleaner then last time, employees were nicer and food was better too I gotten my food in like 3 minutes The only con is some of the food such as the chili got me a little sick and was awful It was calm there too and not bad of a mood

    Chicken Fingers, French fries, double cheese burger

    Best steak 'n Shake experience I have ever had. All workers were very nice and genuine. Popular Older music was playing the entire time, food was amazing. Overjoyed with my experience

    My first visit to Kentucky started with eating at this place. It's definitely something that I won't encounter often especially since California doesn't have restaurants like these. Had the garlic cheeseburger and I thought it was ok. The fries were crispy but they didn't bring out as much cheese for these fries. As for the burger, it was similar to the Buttery Jack from Jack in the Box. Service was fine, it was mostly just helping yourself out at the end. This place is clean and there is no sanitary issues.

    Double steak burger with fries and a shake

    Once again, had a great experience at this location a year later. Didn't even realize but I ordered the same thing as I did a year ago. Tasted just as good as it did the last time. Maybe even better. Took less than five minutes to get my food which is always good. And I was there for happy hour so my shake was half off. Will definitely return to this location in the future.

    My perception prior to arrival: you cannot mess up french fries smothered in chili and cheese. My perception afterwards: you can mess up french fries smothered in chili and cheese. On the bright side: the server was very kind and attentive.

    Thumbs down.

    Busy place but not for the right reason. The crew and management are slow, unconcerned and offer little service or explanations as to why service is so bad.

    My husband and I took advantage of our big kid watching the little and went to lunch and ran errands. We were close to steak and shake and also longhorns (a favorite) but we wanted burgers so went with the diner. -- busy when we arrived- I have only been a handful of times and never had a bad experience but it's never been busy when I have been there. The busyness just added to the fun and did not affect the speed at which food arrived or getting drinks or assistance.. good job! -food--- we both got the 4 for 4$ with cheeseburger, fries, cole slaw, and a cookie... I substituted the slaw for salad and it was awesome. Nice fresh salad, LOVE the skinny fries and they were hot, and the burger was awesome! We were there right before 2 pm and was going to get a half price shake to go since we'd hit their happy hour but we were both too full and satisfied from our tasty lunch. Service-- excellent! Courteous, professional, happy and friendly. Our waitress, Natasha, was there when we needed here and was genuine. When I asked her a basic question about something I just needed an opinion on- about myself- ultimately, she made me feel good while eating food that tastes really good (though my health my scoff :) The overall mood where we were sitting was just happy... a good song came on and employees were singing quietly and just appeared to be enjoying doing their job.... Thank you.

    Moldy bun

    If I could give zero stars I would. My husband and I decided to order via doordash & I ordered a hot dog. I took a bite of the hotdog and noticed the bread was hard, I took a look at the bun and it had MOLD on it! How are you going to serve customers moldy food?! There's no way whoever was making it didn't see the mold. My husband said his hamburger tasted bad.

It's awesome.

My usual favorite is…read moreTousey House, but they aren't open for dinner on Sundays so I needed to find an alternative. Fort Mitchell Public House Bar and Grill checks all of my boxes. The first thing I look for is a nice patio. Unfortunately the weather wasn't cooperating today, but I will be back for this fabulous patio. I was there before the dinner rush, which explains the emptiness of the restaurant. More people started arriving after 5:00. There were so many yummy sounding choices on the menu that it was hard to decide. I asked my server, Erin, what she recommends and she said the CAJUN BOURBON FILET TIPS were her favorite. I went with that and was not disappointed. The filet was cooked and seasoned perfectly. It is served over mashed potatoes and topped with onion straws. While the beef portion was small, it was a satisfying meal and the flavors were perfection! I added a side Caesar salad. Their house-made croutons were so good and the dressing was tasty and perfectly portioned. I don't often order dessert, but decided to splurge tonight and got a slice of the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake to-go. OMG, this is one of the best cheesecakes I've ever had. It was light and dense at the same time, if that makes sense. So creamy and melt in your mouth delicious. I will dream about it tonight LOL.

We should have just left at that point but our kids were hungry. Dinner was finally served and it was good, but no one seemed very concerned about how long we waited.

I wish we hadn't dropped $90 on this dinner.

You enter a classy foyer to be greeted by a well dressed hostess. There are multiple beautifully appointed dining rooms. Greyhounds abound in the decor.

They were packaged up so nicely, including the requested utensils (we were staying in a hotel) and handed off to me in a big sturdy shopping bag. There's a big private parking lot and a small outdoor seating area. The exterior is gorgeous too. Next time we find ourselves in NKY I am definitely making reservations here!

We were seated in a booth in a quietish room and it was lovely - we could hear each other and see other spots but it was a bit like being in our own little world. The food was great. I had the Alaskan halibut with crab and creamy risotto and I loved it. My husband had the pecan-crusted chicken. We both had salads, and I ordered a piece of carrot cake to go. I thought we were going to rent a U-Haul for that piece of cheesecake. It was about 1/4 of a big cake. It was good...not my favorite carrot cake, but good. Lovely experience and will definitely come back - so much better than the chains everywhere in Crestview Hills area.

He brought us a menu and excitedly described the lunch options. Once we made our decisions, he brought us hot Chai tea to sip while we waited for our food. My sister ordered the lamb shank while I ordered the chicken stew. Both dishes came with basmati rice (that was brown with spices and flavor) and a salad. We thoroughly enjoyed the scrumptious food. The meat fell off the bone of her lamb shank and my chicken stew was beyond delectable. At the time of this review (March 2025), the restaurant had only been in operation for about 4-5 months. So, the minimal decorations and decor are probably because the restaurant is so new. I'm sure the owners will make the place look a little nicer once they are able sustain and stay in business. Because the food was so tasty, I didn't remove one star for lack of good decor. We enjoyed our meals so much that we plan to return when we are in the area.
