"EVERYTHING WAS GREAT, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF OUR BEER MUGS, THEY WERE NOT FROZEN OR EVEN COLD, AS YOU WOULD EXPECT IN A SEAFOOD RESTAURANT. THE GRILLED OYSTERS WERE SO TINY I HAD TO SQUINT TO SEE A FEW OF THEM. THE OYSTERS ON THE SEAFOOD PLATTER WERE MUCH BIGGER, HOWEVER SOME WERE OVERCOOKED. OTHER THAN THESE FEW ISSUES, EVERYTHING ELSE WAS FANTASTIC. THE FRIED CATFISH WAS AWESOME, AS WERE THE SHRIMP! ALL OF THE DESERTS WERE TO DIE FOR, ESPECIALLY THE CHEESE CAKE! OVERALL, I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT."

Good atmosphere no tap beer which is a bummer. Oysters are not bad, have discounted oysters weekly which is nice. Nice place overall! Parking is behind building and easy access. View menu

Busters was indeed an experience. But not a great experience! I had the oysters, grilled, and they were dry and rubbery, with cheese , butall without much taste. The Food was generally too spicy overall mediocre.. Service was good.

Very decent place. <br/ <br/ The seafood platter is good and fried perfectly. <br/ <br/ I had the fried shrimp and oyster salad with remoulade dressing and that was also pretty good. <br/ <br/ Very good fried Louisiana-style seafood and lots of choices on the menu. <br/ <br/ Floors were sticky (has a full bar and probably lots of traffic)<br/

Jot India

Menu • Curry • Indian • Chicken • Biryani

"i always get vindaloo(or saag) when i get indian. This is the first time ive ever had vindaloo that tastes straight up like tomato sauce. It wasnt inedible but its the first time this has happened to me. I looked up what vindaloo should have in it and it shouldnt have tomatoes in it. Mayas Indian in Price Hill is way better, or Dusmesh. My gf said her saag wasnt that great either. I'm surprised how well rated this place is but maybe it's because its the only indian Kentuckians have eaten since it wasnt that long ago that there were basically no indian restaurants in kentucky, and more kentuckians are scared to go to Cincinnati for some reason."

"I have visited this restaurant frequently over the past year since I first left a review. However, I have been trying to cut back and hadn't been for a while. When I recently returned, I saw some new faces and they were still extremely pleasant! I really appreciate the top-notch service where they come around the counter and bring you your coffee, even if you're getting it to go. One particular item I enjoyed was the swirl latte cold brew. The staff, especially the ladies, are amazing! They are always so sweet and work incredibly hard. I love this place! I have tried several items from the menu and they were all delicious."

Bloc Coffee Company

Menu • Tea • Fish • Coffee • Cheese

"What a hidden gem! During our vacation, we were looking for a coffee and breakfast place and stumbled upon this wonderful spot. The atmosphere was so peaceful, and the staff, especially Cody, were incredibly friendly. The coffee and breakfast were both excellent—I had the Sammy, while my wife enjoyed the stuffed French Toast, and everything was delicious. They also have an upstairs seating area that is beautifully designed with tables and lounge chairs. It's a shame we discovered this place only on our last day here. If we find ourselves back in the area, this will definitely be our go-to breakfast spot!"

The Arepa Place

➤ 131 W Elder St, 45202, Cincinnati, United States

Menu • Pizza • Spanish • American • Colombian

"I wanted to stop by Arepa Square in Cincinnati. I usually visit the city for an event or to meet someone and then I'm on my way. When I'm in the area buying comic books, I often find myself nearby. Last weekend, after picking up my son from UC, we decided to have a meal there, and I’m glad we did. The food was fresh, and the wait wasn’t as long as I expected. I’ve often found that good food usually comes with a longer wait, but this was definitely worth it. The restaurant is small, but there’s enough space to sit and enjoy your meal. I also noticed they sold some items I used to enjoy as a child in NYC, so I couldn’t resist grabbing a few things, including coconut cream for my Coquito! I will definitely be returning here with my family."

Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse

➤ 505 Vine St, Cincinnati, OH 45202, United States

Menu • Wine • Sushi • Cheese • Seafood

"Dining at Jeff Ruby's in downtown Cincinnati was the finest restaurant experience I’ve ever had. The venue’s 1920s flapper-inspired ambiance near the fountain at Fifth and Vine set the stage for an unforgettable evening. The service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive. The drinks were expertly crafted; I particularly enjoyed a couple of perfectly balanced Manhattans. The food was the highlight. I savored a perfectly cooked filet topped with crab meat, accompanied by fresh side vegetables, and ended with a rich gluten-free cheesecake. As someone with celiac disease, I was impressed by the staff’s conscientiousness regarding my dietary needs. There were six of us, and even with a full restaurant, we could clearly hear each other’s conversation—noise control was spot on. The bill was on the higher side, but the experience was worth every penny. I can’t wait to return."
