Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Crestview Hills

Just wow, this dining experience was phenomenal from start to finish. The food was mouth watering! A great menu with exquisite bites and entrees. The oysters are the best in the city. The atmosphere was insane, I was amazed! With meticulous service and very clean.

We had a wonderful experience at Somm and will definitely be back! We had a quiet, enjoyable dinner for our anniversary. We enjoyed a wonderful bottle of rose, the charcuterie board, and the filet, and they were all incredible! Our waitress was personable, friendly, and quick! Highly recommend Somm!

We were placed at a nice quiet table. Food & service was awesome! Perfect Christmas Eve dinner with our daughter and son-in-law!

First time eating at this fascinating restaurant with a really excellent view that is different from most Cincinnati Riverside views. Great outdoor and indoor venue at this 7th floor rooftop setting. Unique cooking system with a complete wood-burning grill centered in the dining room, I walked up to look at the fire and the engineering for the immense grill/oven. There is an enticing, smoky aroma in the restaurant when you first enter. If smoke bothers you then what the heck are you doing coming to this restaurant? Because all of the food tastes absolutely wonderful imbued as it is in that incredible white oak, cherry, apple and pear wood smoke. I would get an appetizer or a side rather than the dessert, because the mushrooms were lovely though with a tart taste that I’m not used to having.. That melded with the smoke did make them very memorable. We also tried the crab/scallop/cheddar cheese, dip. Paired with large brioche style bread, freshly toasted of course, which I actually saw them do over the coals. Cheddar and shellfish, who knew? My barbacoa style short rib with sweet potato, tomatillos and quest fresco was a smoky deliciousness. My wife’s chicken was moist with crispy skin. My daughters duck did not stay on the table long enough for me to examine. It was great I’m told. Every morsel of meat had that smoky undertone. Fascinatingly enough the mushrooms stood the smokiest. Will definitely come back, with friends to smell, eat and gaze at the view. Half off bottles of wine on Wednesdays!!

New place and really well done. Drink selection is great for a cool bar and grill that turns into a bar after dinner. Food selection was very good and well prepared. Another great welcomed spot in downtown Cincinnati. Definitely 2 thumbs up!!!
