    My experience at Pepp & Delores was perfect. Our server, Darla was very informative about the menu, made sure our waters were full and drinks were ordered. She checked in with us to see if we needed anything. She was very pleasant to talk to. Our food was outstanding, it is always top rate. My favorite restaurant in Cincinnati. Thank you for the wonderful afternoon!

    We attended for an anniversary dinner. The staff was lovely and welcoming, especially our server, Eric. We had the arancini (delightful), cacio e pepe served tableside (a lovely presentation, and just enough for two to share), focaccia, olive oil cake and budino. Desserts were outstanding. We also each had a mocktail, which were delightful. Definitely a "special occasion" place (for us, due to the price point), but well worth it for a celebratory night.

    Great experience as always. Sarah was extremely cordial and engaging! Cole did a great job serving our table and had a great amount of knowledge of Italian wines and helped us pair a Super Tuscan with our various courses! The food is always so great and was especially great last night!

    We hadn't been to Wild Ginger in a long time & we enjoyed it very much. It was Christmas so it was crazy busy but they did their best to give the best service possible. The food was fresh & delicious

    We had a fantastic experience, from the exceptional service to the delicious food. Our waitress, Raelin, was outstanding. Despite the restaurant being busy, she provided attentive and friendly service throughout our meal. The portion sizes were generous enough to allow for leftovers, something she kindly warned us about, which made us laugh! We ordered the sausage and mushroom pizza, pepperoni pizza, spaghetti with meatballs, and shrimp fra diavolo, and everyone truly enjoyed their meals. The portions are large enough to easily share among at least three to four people. The restaurant's ambiance also contributes to a family-friendly atmosphere. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for our Christmas meal.
