Outstanding service from a young lady by the name of Ijah to top off our experience visiting 6 N the morning while in cincinnati! Food outstanding as well! read more

I went to this location a couple of years ago when it was called something else. It was nice to return and receive such great service. Our waiter, Dennis, was kind, knowledgeable, and forthcoming. The kitchen was slightly backup and wasn't taking orders when we were seated. He informed us but assured us our drink service was would not be affected. His recommendation of the Jackson Slappin pankcakes were right on point. The cheese grits were some of the best I've had. Oh and the skillet potatoes were straight from your mama's kitchen. Dennis was very accommodating to our request and did everything with supreme professionalism and great customer service. Although we waited just a little while to be seated ( we had reservations, I highly suggest you do too), it was worth it. The vibe was chill and the music was great! I didn't know whether to eat or dance to the great R &B being played. I appreciate that they validate parking. I was almost charged $15 to park down the street. I'm glad I waited and parked in the restaurant garage. I only paid $3 after they gave me a sticker to validate. The meal price was average for brunch, but the serving size was worth it. Definitely check them out! read more

Went on a Sunday afternoon and got the last 2 seats at the bar, because it was extremely packed both inside and outside. We ordered pretty quickly but waited over an hour for our food to come out. They said they had to stop taking orders after ours to accommodate the backup of the kitchen and allow them to catch up. Food overall was pretty mid though, but the music was good and some of the servers were nice. Seems like an overall cute brunch place but i recommend a reservation and a lot of patience. read more

7/19/26-My experience was very disappointing. The customer service at the greeter's desk was poor, with a clear lack of communication and professionalism. The general manager failed to address our concerns, was defensive,showed little accountability, and was rude during our interaction. In addition, the food was served cold, which made the experience for my sons' birthday brunch horrible .Overall, the establishment lacked organization, and the poor service from both the greeting staff and general manager made for an unsatisfactory visit. I would not recommend this location based on my experience. read more

I make this review reluctantly because I really wanted to enjoy a dine in experience. I've had take out from their first location in Kenwood previously. We had 1:30p reservations for Sunday brunch. We arrived on time and after waiting 20-30 minutes we still weren't seated and before being seated we were advised that upon ordering it would be another 40 minutes for the food to come out. Needless to say we left. read more

6 'N The Mornin' - The entrance - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

Had a reservation but had to wait like walk-ins. The current status of this restaurant on Yelp says its temporarily closed but I've never seen a better turn out as I'm sitting inside the place. Good choice to have a rich breakfast. But waiting 1.25 hrs for your food with no complimentary anything, on hard chairs, is brutal! I hope they fix the kinks in this new setup for them. People get tired of poor service, average food but high demands of the customers. That's not how it works. read more

6 'N The Mornin' - Hattiesburg hash! 4 cups of grits, 4 cups of cheese 1/2 c of hash,1 egg a pinch of green onions. A bit much wouldn't you say? - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

Came for happy hour and had a great time. Our server did an amazing job even tho he was the host, server, cook and bartender he handled it so well. I had the Tenny Henny, fried broccoli and wet lemon pepper wings. Everything was so good but the fried broccoli was surprising. It had a really good crust on the outside that makes the first bite and everyone after that great. read more

Finally another amazing breakfast spot in Northern Kentucky! The food was amazing. Best shrimp n grits I've ever had in my life; shrimp was seasoned perfectly.

Highly recommend checking this place out! read more

I'm so relieved to know fellow Yelpers have a more accurate depiction of this restaurant vs Google (which I unfortunately used to pick this brunch location). I have always loved this space. Vibe has good music. Unfortunately, that's the only positive thing I can say about this place. I would describe the menu selection as maybe southern / Cajun? My bowl was FULL of potato's with very little protein (light on the egg and corned beef hash). The flavor was good, but for $18, I want more than potatoes. The service is what really got me in a bad mood. It was sloooowww. Even to get a coffee refill took 20 minutes. Here's the kicker, when we finished our meal, we were still enjoying our coffee and juice, 3 people came and cleared everything from our table - even our waters. And then the hostess came up and rudely told us we had to leave because they had reservations for our table. I kid you not... there were 4 empty tables to our right. We were having a holiday lunch (just two polite ladies who had not consumed any alcohol) and finishing up a story. I cannot believe they pushed us out. I would never ever eat here again. read more

Our office had our team brunch/lunch here and the wait staff were so kind and attentive. What a great service for a table of 8 even with how busy they were! The food was amazing. I cannot speak highly enough of the cheesy grits. Vegetarian options on the menu and I looked over and the chicken waffles next to me looked so golden and crispy! The vibe was emasculate 90s and early 2000s music was playing. The ambiance was just a good vibe. The chef came out and just surveyed the place and he looked over our table and asked if everything tasted alright? It tasted great! Can't wait to come back and visit! read more

Food was horrible! Whiting is too heavily breaded, very salty , tasted & looked old! I purchased 3 whiting baskets for my office colleagues & myself and we couldn't even eat it! I was so embarrassed! I specifically asked if tartar & hot sauce was included in the carryout bag and was assured by the staff that it was. Got back to the office and of course there was no type of condiments in the bag. Food was not marked as to differentiate which was Cajun fries and which was not. It was just an all around horrible experience! I work in a government office and will let everyone know that the food & service is below subpar. Needless to say I'm done! read more

They are back there cooking like we're at Grandma or Auntie's house and I LOVE IT! I hosted my birthday brunch here with a small group of my closest friends who traveled in from out of town and EVERYONE enjoyed their meal. The restaurant serves southern brunch classics like fish and grits, fried okra, chicken and waffles, french toast, you name it! Our table enjoyed these things plus an omelet and mimosas. DELICIOUS! Additionally, the staff was friendly and upbeat as were our neighboring guests who made the party even more complete!!! The energy was on 100!!! This is MY PLACE. read more

We waiting for our food for over an hour and when it can it came, it was cold. We sent it back and waiting for another order for an additional 25 mins, mind you we ordered our food together on one check. Waiter was nice but service was slow. Overall experience was terrible. It was nice when it was in Cincinnati. read more

I stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and they happen to have happy hour going on. The service was quite slow and there weren't too many people inside. The music was playing very loud and it was hard to have a conversation. The food was pretty good but nothing too special.

We decided that we would give them another try at their new location. Unfortunately, they still have a lot to figure out. Our reservation was for 12:15, but we didn't get our meals until 2:30.

YE Gurl Eats: 6 N the Mornin' -- Where the Grits Ain't Got Grit Sometimes you root for a place before you even walk in. Black-owned, breakfast-centric, housed in a historic Cincinnati building with a name that nods to the culture--yes, I wanted to like this. But... there are layers. Let's start from the top. My beau and I snagged two lucky seats at the bar amidst the crowd (which honestly gave me hope). The location? Prime. The building? Beautiful bones. But the interior read sparse and last-minute, like someone poured their entire budget into rent and hoped a coat of paint and a few plastic flowers down the bannisters and behind the bar could stretch and read 'New Orleans'. HOW SWAY? I later found out the owner is from Atlanta, not New Orleans--which maybe explains the mismatch. This wasn't giving "Second Line" or even "low country cozy." It felt like a soft pop-up in a historic shell. From 12:05 to 1:02--that's how long it took for our food to hit the table. I have the photo receipts. While we waited, we had a front-row seat to some... chaos. The staff was visibly overwhelmed, huddling behind the bar, venting about customers in front of customers, and trying to dodge the tense energy of the floor manager. It wasn't just "busy" energy--it was disorganized, and unfortunately, unprofessional. When my food finally arrived--The Lafayette Omelette with cheese grits and a shrimp upcharge ($20)--I was starving, so yes, I ate all of it. But did I enjoy it? Not exactly. The cheese tasted cheap and flavorless, the dish was butter-heavy with no depth, and honestly, nothing on that plate said Nawlins. No seasoning, no soul. The real MVP? The Mimosa ($10). It was giving "at-home brunch with the girls"--not premium bubbles, but refreshing enough to take the edge off my growing hangry. And give me a buzz that equated to some empathy for the event. That's where the good news ends. And look--I get it. It's hard out here for new restaurants. Labor is tricky, training is ongoing, and creating consistency takes time. But when folks are waiting over an hour and your staff is clocked out (mentally, at least), you risk becoming a one-time experience instead of a local favorite. I'm not here to bash. I genuinely wish them growth, structure, and some solid consulting. Just not from me. Not today. Not for free. read more

I'll start with the good. The salmon croquettes and eggs were good, the cheese grits were very good! The server was very helpful and did a great job. It's a nice amount of space here, but where we were seated was a 2-top with not a lot of room and the waiting area isn't spacious, especially for a place as busy as them. It took a while for the food to come out and when it did, the only thing that was hot between my entree and my friend's entree was my croquettes. Everything else was lukewarm. Pancakes were kind of cold so I couldn't enjoy them but the entree was good. I would come back knowing that I have to set my expectations and show up before I'm hungry since the wait could be a while (even with a reservation). read more

Shrimp and grits with Catfish was delicious. Just make sure you have time to wait. Will go again and try something different.

GET HERE ASAP!!! The food was full of flavor and super filling (large portions)! I make pancakes using cinnamon at home so I was pleasantly surprised when our AMAZING server Mari asked if I wanted cinnamon and powdered sugar! The eggs were done just right and these potatoes were like nothing I've ever had before! The grits are made with cheese and thick and the catfish was full of flavor. I don't even like grits but tried a bite and loved them! I'd happily order my own! Also while we didn't indulge they serve Mimosa Towers!! Please be patient..this is not fast food. They prepare everything to order and fresh so give them some time. I promise it will be worth the wait!! As soon as we walked in we knew this space was not always a restaurant so to Google we went and discovered that it was originally a bank and as we looked around more we got a peek in the kitchen and saw that the vault door is still in tact back there!! They played great music the entire time and the vibe was everything! It was a bonus for us to learn that this was also a black owned business! read more

6 'N The Mornin' - French Toast and the Pancake menu items - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

I tried the red velvet waffles at 6 N The Morning, and let me tell you -- they look like they came to impress. Soft, warm, that deep red color, and just enough crisp on the edges to let you know they didn't rush the batter. The flavor hits right away. It's sweet but not overboard, and the texture is legit: that balance between fluffy inside and a little crunch on the outside. My only note? I wish the icing came on the side. The flavor is good, but having it separate would let you control the sweetness and keep the waffle from softening too fast. Give me the choice to dip, drizzle, or drown it depending on the moment. Overall? A solid breakfast move. With the icing on the side, it would've been perfect. read more

First - this place is OPEN in Covington, Ky. A bit of an odd location in the Embassy Suites near the convention center. Second - this is the BEST breakfast we had since coming to Cincinnati. The French Toast is great. The pancakes are perfect. The cheesy grits are literally the best I've ever had - and I've had a lot! Ronald our server was courteous and professional. The manager came around to see if we were ok. Very sad to be leaving the area. If we return, this will be our first stop! read more

They are brand new at this location so they have kinks they need to work out. I brought my family on a Thursday at 10:15 to eat. They were seated immediately. The food took about 40 minutes to come out however Lilly ( being trained) and the other server who was training her were very nice and did keep us updated on the food and refilled my dad's cup of tea consistently. My family of 6 was impressed with most of the food. Once they get the food service down faster, I believe this place will be great to go to. read more

I don't usually leave reviews, but this experience was disappointing enough that I felt like I needed to. I got to the restaurant @ 10:00 AM with reservations and didn't get our food until 12:15Pm Waiting over two hours for a meal is just not acceptable. What made it even worse was that when my food finally came out, it was cold. The plate was actually hotter than the food, which made it seem like the food had been sitting for a while before it was brought to my table. After waiting that long, I expected a fresh, hot meal, but that definitely wasn't what I received. To make things even more frustrating, our entire party ordered at the same time, but our food wasn't brought out together. There were seven of us, and instead of bringing everyone's meals out at once, they only brought one or two plates at a time. We then had to wait another 10 to 15 minutes before the next trays of food came out. By the time the last people at our table received their meals, the first people had already been sitting there with their food getting cold. A restaurant should know that when a large party orders together, the goal should be to serve everyone together so the whole table can enjoy the meal at the same time. I spoke with the staff about what happened, hoping they would do something to make it right. Instead, I was only offered a 15 percent discount. After spending two hours waiting and then getting cold food, that really didn't feel like they cared about fixing the situation. It felt like my time and experience as a customer didn't matter. The biggest problem wasn't just the food being cold. It was the entire experience. The long wait, the lack of communication, the poor service, and the way the situation was handled all added up. I understand that restaurants can get busy and things can go wrong, but customers deserve better than this. I really hope management takes the time to look into what happened and makes some changes because there are clearly issues that need to be fixed. Better communication with customers, serving complete orders together, and making sure food is hot before it leaves the kitchen would go a long way. I wanted to enjoy my meal, but instead I left frustrated and disappointed. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I can't recommend this restaurant to anyone. read more

You will be waiting 45 minutes to an hour and they still might get your order wrong. Just letting you know im very disappointed because I'm big on Black owned businesses and they need customer service training badly. They need more cooks badly. And whoever the owner is needs to not be the owner anymore get somebody else in it that knows how to run a restaurant. I gave you three stars because the food is at least good. read more

The service and food was amazing! There is a great outside seating area with fans and nice seat cushions. I look forward to coming back.

This was the worst dining experience I've had. The service was a 0/10. We waited 30 minutes just to be seated and over an hour for our food. When it finally arrived, it was cold. To make matters worse, the general manager had a very unprofessional and unpleasant attitude, which only added to the frustration. Based on this experience, I would not return or recommend this restaurant. read more

My mother and I had been wanting to try this restaurant in Cincinnati for a long time but never got the chance. Now that they have a location in Covington, it was so much easier for us to visit, and it was absolutely worth the wait! Our waiter, Ronald, was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. We also had the pleasure of speaking with the owner, Theo, who was incredibly welcoming. The food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. We're so glad we finally made it and can't wait to come back again! read more

They get a 3 because food is good but if you're hungry I'd suggest finding somewhere else to eat.

Finally made it to 6 n the mornin for brunch. When I walked in I was immediately impressed with the decor and historic features of the building. The servers were very nice and attentive however, the wait time for food was much no longer than I anticipated. There were 3 of us and it took an hour to receive our food and it was constantly being blamed on a large party that showed up. My suggestion is if you can't accommodate the others in the restaurant then you should probably not accept parties of 30 people. The food was mediocre. I tried the salmon croquettes which were dry, the bacon was so salty I didn't even finish eating it but the cheese eggs were perfect. I went on a Sunday and I loved the R&B vibes as well. I will give them another try and choose other items on the menu. read more

Me oh my, there's a great new breakfast spot in town. Just stopped in for breakfast with friends, and this place is a winner. New to the neighborhood in an old bank, 6 is serving up Southern-themed and named breakfast delights. Check out the photos of the menu and you'll see what I mean. I first ordered the shrimp and grits, but decided to send it back because while the shrimp were plentiful and the sauce was decadent, the texture of the grits seemed a little off (like a cross between polenta and mashed potatoes). I just couldn't get with it. However... My waitress took ONE look at my face after checking in on the table, realized I was unhappy, and whisked that plate away while promising to bring me something better. DID. SHE. EVER. Y'all ain't ready for that red velvet chicken and waffles. You're just not. When I tell you there's crack in the chicken...there's crack in the chicken. They're in the back seasoning everything, not just the chicken. I'm talkin' 'bout the FLOUR, the OIL, the skillet itself is damn seasoned. And these fluffy waffles?! Chile. With this cream cheese drizzle? Stop. Seriously, the crunch on this chicken is special, and I'm determined to come back just to see what else they can do with a damn chicken. Y'all make chicken feet? I'm down. The owners have taken a dated, gutted-out bank and transformed it into a bright, airy, welcoming restaurant with shotgun-style seating area and a truly lovely bar. There are great little design touches from the front door to the back of the house. Truly, the decor is very mindful, very demure. The staff is young, attractive, and clearly learning how to be/stay professional while at work. I hate going places where employees can't be bothered to stop having private conversations between themselves when there are customers. Not at 6! I walked through the front door and there were 3 servers standing at the hostess stand. As SOON as they saw me, they all stopped talking. Two just smiled and walked away and the third looked me in the eye and welcomed me. The young lady moved with a sense of urgency, one of those we-don't-make-customers-wait kind of urgency, and I was seated within 60 seconds. Great location, great servers, and even better menu options. Seriously, the only reason this place got a 4 and not a 5 is the grits. Every single plate that came from the kitchen LOOKED great, but me knowing what those grits do (or didn't do such as the case may be) was the deciding factor here. If, however, you're a chicken and (red velvet) waffle fiend, this is your new favorite spot. Just trust me. read more
