Working with Cate was an absolute highlight of the planning process. Her communication was exceptional throughout, and she consistently went above and beyond to ensure every detail was thoughtfully handled. We met multiple times, and at each meeting she took the time to understand our vision, address any concerns, and adapt plans accordingly. She was incredibly flexible, creating and adjusting different layout options depending on weather scenarios, and always made us feel confident that everything would come together seamlessly no matter the circumstances. One of the most memorable parts of the planning process was the tasting Cate arranged for us--it was beautifully done and helped us feel completely confident in our menu selections. Her attention to detail and commitment to creating a personalized experience truly stood out. On the day of the event, everything was flawless. The space was transformed beautifully, the food was outstanding, the drinks were excellent, and the service was impeccable. Every element came together perfectly, and it was clear how much care and effort went into making our day special. Overall, our experience was nothing short of incredible. I highly recommend Meribo to anyone planning an event, you will be in the best hands!

The Greyhound has always exhibited a polished ambiance, but I noted tonight that evening brings an enhanced air of elegance. It's really quite nice and very suitable for a special occasion or a date night. Service was excellent as always and I enjoyed their very crisp and tasty kale Caesar salad and an excellent French onion soup, accompanied by a nice white wine. Dinner at the Greyhound is supported by a full bar, a good wine list, a nice selection of specialty cocktails and a selection of sumptuous desserts. The Greyhound is high on my list of fine dining spots in Covington.

Okay, this is my fifth visit here in five months so it's safe to say I'm either a glutton for…read morepunishment or that this place is great. Fortunately, it's the later, by a wide margin. Why you ask? Simple, it's great. My reasons: 1) Every time we've been here the service has been great. Not good, great. We've taken the time to meet/talk to the serving staff and they all have been friendly, attentive, and really good at their jobs. We have also met the owners and they too are lovely people. 2) The setting, given that's it's in a small strip mall is great. They have a large patio, plenty of umbrellas as booths, and multiple water features including a water wall. Inside the restaurant is equally beautiful. This is not Chi-Chis or some place trying to faux up the setting. 3) The food is great. If you are looking for typical Americanized Mexican, Spanish, South American food, this is not your place. If you are instead looking for great food that is more interesting, this is the place. For example, tonight we had a chicharron that looked liked two of biggest fried slices of hog heaven you could hope for. It was amazing! We also had the chimichurri sauce which was slightly different from what we have had in the past but it too was awesome! We even asked for some to go to which they said of course. 3) The portion size of most of what we've had over the five visits have almost always fit the price while things such as the steak fajitas were on the generous side for 2026. Bonus, big bonus- They are very dog friendly so your four legged and well behaved dogs are more than welcome in their spacious outdoor patio. And since the tables (not the booths) are not tightly together it's a good place even for the truly big dogs! That about covers it. So bring your fur baby, have a drink (they have some nice concoctions ) and enjoy a restaurant that recreates so many things from one of the owner's youth. And if you can sit outside, you will enjoy it even more! As always, apologies for my usually long and hopefully epic review. Cheers and happy dining all!

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!

It's served family style and our waitress was super flexible allowing us to split the order between the two. I had never tried a Fideua before and it was our favorite dish! The portions were huge and we went home with leftovers. For dessert we tried the brownie which was a good balance to our appetizer and dinner. This is definitely a place I would visit again.

You know, you occasionally discover a jewel in the rough. Well, such was my discovery of Yaba…read moreKitchen in Covington, when we stopped today for a spontaneous weekday lunch while running errands. Yaba Kitchen has a somewhat mundane outside appearance on US190 Business loop, in the Rouse's parking lot, but its tasteful, understated interior, welcoming service, and quality cuisine more than make up for it. The menu is Asian fusion focused, with many old favorites, as well as a number of innovative, contemporary offerings. There were an array of seafood combos and ramen dishes that sounded appealing, but today we stuck to the luncheon menu's chicken hibachi, that was served with an excellent complimentary side salad that boasted a really tasty ginger dressing. The chicken hibachi was especially flavorful, with excellent rice, and was generously portioned. Several desserts were featured that sounded great, but we were simply too full to try them. A waffle cone, ice cream Sunday creation sounded particularly amazing. If you're a fan of Asian fusion, you really should try Yaba Kitchen in Covington.
