Best Cozy Restaurants in Covington

Karina (sp) made our dinner spectacular. The service was superb. We did not feel rushed and had one of the most enjoyable evenings in a long time. The food was excellent, especially the holiday menu. Thank you for a memorable Christmas.

Fabulous as always - never disappoints! Our server, Leah, was professional and engaging - will ask for her again! Everything was delicious, from the cacio e pepe, pork tenderloin to the branzino!!!!!

This is our second year doing the igloo! It's always so much fun! Already looking forward to next year!

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!!

Sad to see this favorite close...we always enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere.
