Wonderful Restaurant in the Cincinnatian Hotel

by chregan

The elegant building itself was built in the 1880's and is rather breathtaking, if you ask me. Chef Salazar had been working in New York City at a number NYC's culinary heavy hitters, including Blue Ribbon Sushi and Jean George.

• Pros: Butternut Squash Soup
• Cons: Dover Sole, while absolutely fresh, a bit pricey

This was a very disappointing experience.

This was a very disappointing experience.

1. The service was very good.

2. The room was very drafty and cold.

3. The food was mediocre at best, very overpriced while being served at room temperature.

Finally, one of our party asked if they could order the chicken w/ potatoes vs. the dumplings on the menu. We were informed that that is not allowed. The chef has decided what foods should be served together and will not allow any other set of combinations.

Overall, just simply disappointing.

Previous reviews are really old

Based on previous reviews I selected this restaurant and was expecting a great dinning experience. One that you leave with wow that was nice. Well the food was fine...over priced but good. The attention to detail mentioned in the overview is not there. Maybe because it was a Monday evening... but our waiter could have cared less if she was there or not. Others around seemed to at least have a personality.

Over all there are many restaurants in Cincinnati that would rate higher... and will have my business in the future.
