Best Historic Restaurants in Fountain Square

Owen was great and didn’t rush us! He was attentive and kind which made for a great experience in the bar area!

The entire experience was positive. I was able to make a reservation for seven people without any issues. A table was set up and ready for us when we arrived. The service was outstanding; the server was well-informed and extremely attentive. No one in our party was disappointed with their meal. The only drawback is that the restaurant is small, so space is limited, and it became loud when the restaurant was full. However, it has a quaint atmosphere and offers all the warmth of a family-owned restaurant.

We ate here on a busy Saturday evening in December and the restaurant was hopping. We had a reservation for 4:45 PM but were unsure if we could get in to eat and out in time to make the Yuletide Show. Not only was the restaurant packed with a waiting line but they were also short-staffed... even worse! Have no fear, Rathskeller while short-staffed, did a wonderful job. We had a fantastic waitress who asked if we were going to a show after dinner. She told us she would have us out in time and she stuck to her word. We were at the show with time to spare. I highly recommend Rathskellar if you have a small or large party holiday, or no holiday. They seem to be prepared for everything.

Best out there. Definitely worth the try when you’re in the area. Best steak and sides I’ve had

Excellent service, excellent food, excellent ambience. We really enjoyed our visit. We will be back!
