The outdoor patio is one of the best around! Burgers and grilled chicken sandwiches are always delicious and the drinks are great!

This is one of our favorite go to places. Tonight however it seemed the kitchen was very salt happy. The sauce for the salad roll was extremely salty snd the server said there was not another batch available to replace it. The chicken wings were also very salty though still eatable. The pho, when it arrived seemed flavorless in comparison We will be back but likely choose a day when the main chef is in the kitchen.

The lighting is subpar at the tables. Would be nice to have an increased level. Everything else was good as usual.

The chicken sandwich that I had was super. The chicken was juicy, the lightning sauce was yummy, and the combination of flavors was delicious. I don’t usually eat fried chicken but this sandwich was outstanding. We shared the cauliflower with lightning sauce before ordering our entrees, so I knew I wanted something with that sauce- it had just the right spiciness!! And our waitress was friendly and efficient. If I ever get back to Cincinnati, I’d surely stop here to eat.
