We were in town for a wedding weekend and, with so many places closed on Sunday, we were thrilled…read moreto stumble upon this gem. When we arrived, the restaurant was very busy--a great sign! Even though there was a wait, the bartender and server kindly invited us to sit at the bar so we wouldn't have to stand in line. Our food took a little longer than expected, but it was absolutely worth the wait. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the quality of the food more than made up for the extra time. The service was friendly and accommodating, and the overall experience was wonderful. We had a great meal and a very enjoyable visit. Highly recommend!

I don't understand the hype around Wildweed…read more We walked in without a reservation and were able to sit at the bar. The bar scene itself was very boring, honestly one of the least interesting bar dining experiences I've had in a while. The food was mediocre and not memorable. The only dish I clearly remember, and probably the only one I would order again, was the watermelon salad. Everything else was fine at best, but nothing stood out or made me want to come back. I'm honestly surprised this restaurant is getting James Beard recognition. There are so many better places in the area, such as Colette, Baker's Table, and most notably Grist in Dayton, that feel far more deserving and seem to be overlooked. It makes me wonder if Wildweed has some kind of connection or ownership that helps it get more attention, because based on this visit, I don't see it.

I reserved the chef's counter experience for a Friday evening alone and Wildweed exceeded all of my…read moreexpectations. I was greeted at the door with a small menu to precede the course themes and a glass of delicious sparkling wine. The restaurant was very warm, welcoming, and artistic. The mushrooms on the wall were stunning, and the themed pictures throughout gave it a down to earth feel. Everyone was so kind and the service was impeccable. I started the meal with a hot towel to clean my hands - it was this moment I knew I came for a treat. Each course was brought out in a timely manner, and explained thoroughly. The food was beautiful, complex, flavorful, and hearty. Each dish was crafted so meticulously. I could taste the passion for their craft with each bite. The drinks were also made perfectly. Overall, this was right in line with many Michelin starred restaurants I have dined in. I can't wait to come back and try the dining room menu. I hope that our city can support this restaurant and they will stay for a while. I'd love to come back for the chef's experience again when they seasonally change their menu. Thanks for a memorable meal, Wildweed.

My husband brought me to Baker's Table for my birthday dinner. I first became aware of this place…read morewhen I started getting ads for the chef's sourdough book on social media--got the book for Christmas, and apparently talked about that enough that he decided I needed to experience the restaurant! What's striking about the restaurant itself is how quiet and calm it feels. With limited nightly seatings and every dinner table doing the tasting menu there's a sort of orchestrated flow that permeates the space. Not to say energy is low or it's so quiet you feel self-conscious talking; it's just that nothing about the experience feels rushed or accidental. As expected, the bread course was phenomenal as was all the food we enjoyed! We opted for the wine pairing along with dinner, which results in about 1.5 or 2 full glasses over the course of the meal. The sommelier did an excellent job introducing and explaining each wine, as well as why it was selected to pair with each course. All told, a lovely experience and one worth repeating--and not just because the menu changes every season.

We've celebrated a bunch of…read morespecial occasions here, and our favorite move is simple: let the chef choose the menu and let the staff pick the wine. It's never steered us wrong--beautiful food, great pacing, and pairings that make the whole meal feel cohesive without being precious. I've also been here for work functions, and the cocktail program is legitimately impressive. They know what they're doing. What surprises me is how many people still haven't been. It's understated and a little off the radar, but it consistently delivers one of the most enjoyable evenings in town. If you want a special dinner without the scene, this is the spot.

Nice concept for this farm-to-table restaurant (sister restaurant of Lisse - best steakhouse in…read moreCincy for me!) but overall I haven't been satisfied by this experience. The Charcuterie board was a nice way to start (even if the server didn't present it well and mispronounced couple of products on the table) but the duck was not cooked properly in my opinion. The dessert (not pictured here) didn't leave a lasting impression either: tried the peanut butter mousse bar and it wasn't sweet enough to satisfy my sweet craving.

Normally, I find hotel food is just okay and nothing special, but Coppin's was a pleasant surprise. We were greeted by a very friendly hostess, and our equally pleasant server quickly brought menus and asked what we would like to drink. When it was my turn, I happily ordered Coppin's Old Fashioned. I was the odd man out because everyone else ordered the Spring Manhattan. Judging by how quickly everyone's drinks disappeared, I'd say they were all very tasty. I was a little unsure about mine at first, so to make sure the quality and taste were consistent, I ordered a second, and it definitely was not a mistake. I ordered the B+G biscuits (which are made by hand according to server in the hotel) and gravy with an extra egg. Others at the table chose a variety of dishes, including the CVG, Cobb Salad, Bagel and Lox, and several other selections. Based on the clean plates all around the table, everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. My wife ordered a sample of banana bread, and I was fortunate enough to snag a small bite, it was excellent. After we had all finished, everyone agreed that my niece had made an excellent choice for her graduation celebration brunch. As my wife and I made our way back to Louisville, we both commented that we would definitely return the next time we were in Covington.

This is based on Easter brunch only. 75 dollars was overpriced given that 20% tip was automatically…read moreadded so service was horrible. You had to get your own coffee or tea. Ice tea and soft drinks were $3.50, All juices were extra. The only dessert was macrons and breakfast cake and brownie bites. There was no Easter anything except for a person in a bunny suit, There also was no lamb only ham and prime rib (poor quality). Raw bar only had shrimp. There were no lunch items. You could get an omelet or waffles or scrambled eggs in a serving pan. Bread pudding not what they called it (French toast casserole) was OK. They had simple salads in small bowls, small plain bagel with salmon and cream cheese that was set-up on the bar. Restaurant was half full at 1PM. Would never go back to this restaurant for any meal. Customers were taken advantage of. I felt totally ripped off paying over $300 for this (including drinks).
