She made us feel completely comfortable and truly made an already wonderful meal even better. Exceptional service from beginning to end! The restaurant itself is adorable, modern, beautifully decorated, and has a lovely patio. But the service and food completely stole the show. We ordered several appetizers, including the bruschetta, fried green tomatoes, corn and ricotta dip, and pimento croquettes. I'm VERY picky, and I genuinely wouldn't change a single thing. Every dish was flavorful, perfectly balanced, beautifully presented, and cooked exactly right. The bruschetta was so good that we ordered a second round! The fried green tomatoes were perfectly crisp with a delicious sauce, and the pimento croquettes were crispy on the outside, creamy inside, and paired perfectly with the sauce and pickles. The corn and ricotta dip was delicious as well. Nothing was too salty, under-seasoned, overcooked, or missing anything. The flavors were spot-on across the board. For dessert, we had the peach butter cake with everything on the side. The cake was delicious on its own and even better with the ice cream. It's rare to try so many dishes and not want to change a single thing, but that was the case here. The food was top-notch, and Olivia truly made the experience. We will definitely be back and will absolutely recommend this place to others. Amazing food, amazing service, and an overall experience that went above and beyond.

I loved how she verified food allergies with the cooks. The food was great! The wings were a good size and the sauce was nice. The asparagus was cooked well and the aoli accompanied it very well.

Northstar Cafe never disappoints. Seriously, this place is stamped in our book…read more The service is almost always A1, and even when the food takes a little longer than usual, they usually make up for it somehow or throw us a comp card, which we definitely appreciate. I also LOVE the setup here. You pay first, get your food second, and everything just seems to run smoothly. No unnecessary waiting around trying to figure out what's going on. My wife and I usually rotate between the pancakes, the hash, the Northstar Burger, or the potato hash. Honestly, you really can't go wrong with any of them. The food is always fresh, portions are good, and everything comes out looking like somebody actually cared about what they put on the plate. We probably go once or twice a week, especially for brunch. At this point, Northstar is basically family. And if you're like us and pretty picky about where you eat, this is definitely one that gets the stamp of approval. Great food, good atmosphere, and consistently solid service. One more thing: I believe they play jazz after 6 PM Monday through Friday, which is always a nice little bonus. Overall, definitely recommend if you're looking for good food with a nice ambiance. Northstar has a permanent spot in our rotation!

Came here for the first time and had the chicken sandwich... it was crazy good. The flavor was…read moreabsolutely incredible and it tasted so fresh. The menu in general is small but full of classic American food with a bit of a modern twist. We also really enjoyed the fountain soda machine. It's great that they use a local company instead of just using Coke-a-Cola! The ordering system is different than at most restaurants (you order at the counter before getting served at your seat), but the line moves quickly. What was especially awesome about our experience at Northstar was the service. There was a very slight mistake on our order (a burger that we asked for no cheese came with cheese), and, although we didn't mind at all, Northstar went above and beyond to make it right.

McDonald's, Wendy's and BK only wish they had something like this on their menu. Their Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich is excellent, a flavorful combo of beef, mushrooms, peppers and onions with mayo. It's on a round roll so I don't know if folks from Philly would think it's a proper cheesesteak, but here in Cincinnati it's very good. Their 1/2 Pound Burger is nice and thick, still pink in the middle, not overcooked like so many places do. Their Onion Rings and Fried Mushrooms are legit, maybe not ground-breaking or life-changing, but good solid fare.

I ordered the sushi bowl and it was really good though. The chicken tenders were hand battered and looked really good. So overall I'd say it was good, but just not great.

The service is really good. Seated promptly, waters come out promptly, minor order modifications handled easily. We have really enjoyed the variety of food. My husband loves the salads and the bowls and pizzas are also good. Probably the favorite entree we have had is the fish and chips. We find the drinks particularly reasonably priced and the cocktails are good. We really like the blueberry one. The space is sunny and open. We have been with our kids and see lots of friendly groups dining there. Free parking in the garage is another plus.

Our served offered coupons for next time, courtesy of the manager, which we appreciated! Though after paying for our beverages, we discovered we were charged for a bottle of wine we hadn't ordered. Our server handled it well and instructed us to call the restaurant if the charge went through, which we fortunately didn't need to do. Between the hustle and bustle of the weekend brunch rush, perhaps this spot may benefit from streamlining their process and hiring more staff.
