“Best restaurant we have had the pleasure of experiencing in downtown Cincinnati. We enjoyed sitting at the Chefs Table watching the staff prepare all our courses. Wine pairing was exceptional and the overall experience was delicate, well presented and flavors were to die for!”
“Truly excellent place in Cincinnati. Came here for a team dinner while we were in town, and the accolades and awards we’d read about did not disappoint. Ordered6 oysters, striped chicken tortellini, sweet potato ravioli, mezzaluna (had just been placed on the menu recently), and another pasta dish I can’t remember. We also ordered all 3 desserts: chocolate mousse, olive oil ice cream, warm apple tart with ice cream - all were excellent, but the apple tart was exceptional Portion sizes are good and perfect for sharing. strongly recommend to any locals or anyone who’s in town for a night”
“Was a little nervous going in since the menu was different from the last time we went, and I wasn’t sure what half of it was. But the staff was super helpful and we ended up getting El Camino Miche and the cocktail Bergamia before our meal. Both were excellent. For dinner, we had the Chestnut Anolini and Striped Chicken Tortellini. The sunchokes were an excellent addition to the Anolini. The chef surprised us with some grilled ramps after we’d asked about them. Overall a delicious and interesting experience.”
“had pretty high expectations based on what i'd heard and really i think it lived up to the hype. the best thing i had all night was the honey nut squash ravioli. it was the perfect bite i swear to god, had every flavor working so well together. i did think that the striped chicken tortelli was pretty overrated if im being honest, that dish was pretty average in my opinion. drinks + dessert were both excellent, loved the ice cream and the almond cake. overall great vibe inside too, feels pretty intimate & the staff was very friendly and gave great recs!”
“I’ve been procrastinating on writing this, but finally for other customers awareness. This was personally one of the worst tasting menu experiences I’ve ever had in my life. The atmosphere was disappointing. The couple seated next to us seemed very close to the chef, they were loud and constantly banging on the table, which felt obnoxious. With the tasting counter set up almost like a bar, it didn’t feel like a comfortable or enjoyable dining experience. We had the tasting menu with non-alcoholic beverage pairings. Unfortunately, the food was mediocre at best. Dishes were either over-seasoned or under-seasoned, with no real balance. The low point was a rabbit and mushroom dish. When presenting it, the server proudly asked, “Have you ever seen this many kinds of mushrooms on one plate?” The plate itself lacked creativity, and honestly, I use more varieties of mushrooms in soups I make at home. It felt like a strange thing to boast about. Dessert was also a letdown. The canelé was hard, rubbery, and completely flavorless. This was supposed to be my birthday dinner, and my husband had high hopes, so I didn’t say anything at the time. But unfortunately, it stands out as one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had.”
