I saw on their menu that they had a few options that included almond butter. They told me that the Pumba was award winning, so I went with that option. I loved the mixture of different flavors. The pretzel bun really made it complete. It was so filling and I ended up being glad that I tried something new. I highly recommend Quite Frankly to anyone looking for a quality hot dog!

Super satisfying. Fries: These are easily the best fries I've had in the Cincy area so far. They're somewhere between shoestring and thicker fries - long, a little toasty, and just really addictive. Not super oily, so something you could eat whether you're trying to be "diet" or fully going ham. Service: The younger staff had a bit of a interesting vibe, but the older guy there was super chill and kind of balanced everything out. Ambiance: Chill little spot on the corner. Nothing over the top, just easy and comfortable.

Incredible burgers (I can't not order the Shroomin), amazing fries, and the service is top notch. We love the workers here and are always greeted with helpfulness & plenty of jokes.

It's always nice to have friendly staff and reasonable prices... like all the gold stars are aligning. As far as the meal itself was concerned: their chili is different enough from its competitors to be unique but similar enough that to me, it makes it a tossup on where it falls on my Cincinnati chili rank list. Just like Skyline and GS -- it's pretty doggone good. I had my three-way in the park nearby (wow, let's not take that sentence out of context!). Considering there's no real inside seating area, but tons of parks nearby. It's great for a grab and go and late night eating.

Right off the bat, the staff was incredibly welcoming. The menu is straight forward and had a break down of what they offer. I had to try the coneys, but their double decker sandwiches also sound amazing (maybe for another day.) I decided on 3 coneys and an order of chili cheese tater tots and they absolutely did not disappoint. They offer a little bit of everything including a kids menu, and a tasty assortment of desserts as well. It's a perfect spot if you're looking for a quick meal while shopping downtown OR the most ideal food for a drunken night after car hopping in OTR.

The one-man mobile restaurant has become a staple of mine for every Reds game. All beef Nathan's hot dogs are the big seller with recent additions to the menu such as "mets" and the occasional bratwurst. He stocks a variety of toppings and condiments including ketchup, mustard, Cleveland's own stadium mustard, cheese, onions, and jalapenos to name a few. To wash down the delicious dogs, a choice of gatorade, water, or common canned pop products like mountain dew, coke, and pepsi can also be purchased. The prices are fair and definitely better than inside the stadium. At $3 a dog or 2 for $5 and pop or water for a buck, Drew's hot dog cart is a must-stop before venturing into GABP. This displaced Clevelander has become an avid Reds fan and is evident by his devotion to his work and extensive collection of bobblehead dolls on display. If you want an inexpensive meal with the "New York City vendor" feel, stop by and pick up a dog or two.

I gave 4 stars because my husband rated his food a 5 and I rated my food a 3…read more My husband is a great fan of German food so we decided to eat here today. He ordered a pretzel for his starter which he gave a thumbs up. He described it as having a fermented sourdough taste which he really enjoyed. His main meal was a Hofbrauhaus Hot Brown which he described as very rich and dense definitely filling. I tried his dish and was very confused by the mix of flavors. I ordered the Rueben balls which I thought were nicely crisp on the outside but overly soft on the inside but it did taste very nice with the dip provided. I decided on the Munich Sampler which came with 2 sausages, a crispy fired pork chop with potatoes and sauerkraut. The pork chop was overcooked and dry although smothered with a mushroom gravy. The sausages were tasty but nothing special. Both sides were so heavily seasoned with vinegar I could not get through them. My husband even thought the sauerkraut tasted too vinegary but he loved the potatoes, polishing off what I had left on the plate. The service was great; prompt and polite. I would say if you like German cuisine this is the place for you! Quite authentic flavors. Just not my favorite.

Drinks: Beer stayed full without asking. Staff was on it. Service: Attentive and easy the whole time.

Price: A little pricey for "just for a drink", but worth it when you're in the mood and with the friends. Solid spot, fun night, would go back. Have tried the food at this branch years back and it was great, but will rewrite review when it is fresh on the mind!

My wife and I were in the mood to try something new to us, so we popped in for a dinner date. The restaurant space is pretty large, especially for Mt. Adams. It's sort of an indoor/outdoor location, with a large covered patio and large garage doors that open the indoor space in all directions. Certainly a nice place to visit when the weather is good, but the food is just as good as the location, and therefore worthy of a visit no matter the season. My wife and I shared a pitcher of margaritas ($26.99 for the gold), and they were very tasty. Even though they were not prepared to order, it did seem that they had been prepared recently and had great fresh ingredients. My typical Mexican restaurant order is the chimichanga. Theirs is a large tortilla, filled with shredded chicken, beans, and cheese, deep-fried, and topped with lettuce, guacamole, tomato, and sour cream. This is served with rice and beans ($15.25). This was very good and the ingredients were fresh! My wife ordered the chile verde, a delicious plate of slow-cooked pork simmered in a savory green chile sauce. Again served with rice and beans, along with tortillas on the side ($18.50). Another really good dish, and one that is not very common in the Cincinnati area. Go give it a try!
