    The food was wonderful; extremely flavorful, well seasoned, well portioned, and truly seemed like a curated menu. The cocktails were well made and the whiskey menu had some questionable pricing but I was able to find a diamond in the rough (GTS @ $25/oz) Almost everything we got was exceptional. The shrimp scampi fell a little short for the table though, the flavor was very good but nothing special and the portion felt small. The truffle Mac honestly didn’t feel like anything special but was good, not mind blowing, which is acceptable in my eyes for a side. The butter cake was HUGE and just absolutely stellar additionally it was large enough that it could’ve been shared between the 4 of us. What we ordered: The table ordered a round of cocktails/ pour of whiskey. Starters - Rock Shrimp scampi and Burrata Entrees - New York strip, filet, and Orecchiette Sides - truffle Mac and Cheese & Elote Desert - Butter cake with salted caramel ice cream

    Great food, beautiful ambiance. The dirty martini was the best martini I’ve had in NKY. It was cold so the rooftop wasn’t open but they let you outside to look and take in the fantastical view.

    First time visiting this place and we’ll be back. Food was delicious, ambiance was upscale for a sports bar. It was a bit noisy for as empty as it was at 5:30, but it is a sports bar.

    Our group planned to have dinner here before a show at the Aronoff. The ambiance was cozy, the staff were attentive, and all of our meals were absolutely delicious (including the fresh oyster appetizers)! They timed our courses out perfectly to make sure we had plenty of time to walk to the theater! I would highly recommend!
