Cincinnati has: a ton of fancy restaurants to try new foods…read more Cincinnati needs: simple, delicious, place to get sandwiches and burgers. Charlie Lou's holds down what only a few places and the city can. Just opened for a week by the time I got over, they are mailing it early. I got the cheesesteak and fries, $10. And boy is it delicious. Exactly what you want in the sandwich of flavorful but not dry. Yet no so greasy I am wearing half of it. That's just the cheesesteak. I'll be back to try the full menu, especially the really good looking breakfast.

Stopped in for a coffee and breakfast sandwich on my walk to work. It was delightful! Very clean,…read morebright, open layout inside. Cheesy eggs in the sandwich were perfectly cooked. Coffee wasn't anything to write home about, but it did the trick! Will definitely make this part of my weekly routine! And will probably stop by for dinner before the next FCC game.

The best cheese Steak in the Cincinnati area to me…read more The food is always fresh and ready for me to pick up when I call in. My order is never messed up. The cheese steak has great flavor and I can eat on the fries the next day with no sauce. I already get a mixed Philly with chicken and steak, crushed red pepper, cheese, mayo and banana peppers and it hits the spot every-time.

This place is a hole in the wall but it is so good!…read more I have been here twice in two weeks and it was open on Christmas day which is awesome because most places aren't besides chinese. This place is so cheap and the portions are huge! I also love the fresh frozen lemonade with whatever flavor you chose - I love the rainbow - it is delicious and the perfect amount of flavor - the deep fried cheesesteak is so juicy and the fries are seasoned to perfection!

My wife & I were looking for somewhere to eat near the Harriet Beecher Stowe House. The Park Diner…read morewasn't really that close, but since it was highly rated & had an interesting menu - we decided to try it. It was pretty good! We both got the hamburger deal that includes the burger, fries & a drink. The service was excellent. It's a small footprint but has the old time diner feel.

Decided to try it out since it's highly recommended. Everyone working was very nice and helpful…read more We got a range of things. The burger was excellent. The fries are tasty, but I can see why some people say they're over seasoned/salted. The grilled cheese is a fantastic mix of gooey cheeses. The Mac and cheese was good, not great, and has kind of a crazy amount of black pepper in it. The tomato soup is good, but spicy. Like spicy enough that they should probably note that, since kids and some people will freak out. The pickles, also crazy hot and spicy, and they should definitely note that somewhere. It's a very cozy little diner and the decor is fun. The games and puzzles are a nice addition. Parking is easy, as there's street parking and a parking lot across the street.

AJ's Cheesesteaks have come a long way. I remember the first time I've tried them was in Norwood…read morewhen he had his small truck. He upgraded his food truck. Finally, a place to dine in! Woo hoo! My favorite are his Cheesesteaks. Their bread comes from Philly. Yes, the bread makes the sandwich! I won't eat Philly cheesesteaks anywhere else but here. He now expanded his menu. They now serve wings, burgers and sides. You can get a small Philly if you can't finish a whole. I told my work about it and they were sold. We ordered the small supreme, veggie and bbq cheesesteaks with a side of waffle fries. We did pick up since we had to get back to work. Wow! Amazing! Tastes so good! As I remembered years ago! My friends enjoyed it as well. They were raving about it. You will see us again! I can't wait to go back and try other items on the menu.

If you are looking for a delicious cheesesteak and you want one quick, look no further than here!…read more I highly recommend the bacon ranch cheesesteak! The page is exactly as advertised and it is more than enough for two people if they each order a fry... but trust me. You will want your own because you won't be able to stop eating it. The interior is small and fine for lunch but I feel like their main type of dining is take away.

This was one of the those instances when you drive by a place and think to yourself, "Oh that…read moresounds good!" Unfortunately, this was a let down. Roll was soggy, meat was too salty, onions tasted artificially sweetened as if teriyaki sauce was added to them. Not your quintessential cheesesteak. Fries weren't bad, the kimchi fries were an interesting take on loaded fries and flavors played well. One positive thing out of this was the quick turnaround and friendly staff.

I love Charleys!!! Always had great service. Why did they close?? This sucks. Everytime we went…read morein the employees were nice. Only once, these 2 girls working, and they made our food skimpy, and weren't that friendly. All the guys we've interacted with have been very nice.

If I could give one *7* star rating to a single menu item (across all my reviews) -- it's Pony's…read morewings. The fries are superbly potato-ey (sad to say that a distinguishing factor these days is a potato tasting line a potato...). Service is always great. My only gripe is that at the end of the day it's a little loid/boisterous -- but the crowd's always friendly. I'm deducting 2 stars for them showing sports on the TVs -- leaving us at 5/5 stars. (P.S. get the purple drank -- it's a taste you don't see around much -- reminds me of grape BubbleTape gum ... if anyone remembers that)

Absolutely pick me up and fly me to Cincy on a Friday for this fish and chips!!!!…read more I was in town for flying pig and was told the pony had the best fish Friday around. I made damn sure to stop in at 12 on the dot to find out first hand. The fish was well seasoned and crispy on the outside will tender, flaky, and juicy on the inside. The fries were crispy and well seasoned and the damn tartar sauce was even delicious. The portion is huge and while good enough to hog all to yourself it's big enough for 2 people. The server/bartender was very polite and helpful, and even held my cc after leaving it during my visit because I was so high on a crispy flavor cloud I didn't even care how I would pay for the rest of my trip. All in all an absolute must visit for fish Friday or honestly any day of the week. I hear the wings are also something to write home about.

We ordered the food through DoorDash so, no notes on the ambiance…read more We got a 10'' Philly cheesesteak and a bowl of spicy broccoli cheese soup. It was plenty for my husband and me to share. The soup is what drew me in. I love broccoli cheese soup. This soup is...unique. It's either going to be my favorite soup in the world or I'll never have it again. I haven't decided yet. The spice tastes like pickled jalapeños you'd get with stadium nachos. I'll revisit it since there was a ton of it. The sandwich was amazing. Great crispy bread that wasn't tough. It's hard to find one that does both. Meat was great and well seasoned. We got the tip dip (au jus) to dip it in and that was great. We will definitely be eating here again.

visited New England Grinder a few days ago for lunch with a coworker, and as much as I truly wanted…read moreto love this place, I just couldn't. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich, and unfortunately it tasted awful. The chicken salad itself wasn't good, with very large chunks of onion that completely overpowered the flavor. The shop also only offers one type of bread--white--which made the sandwich feel even more plain. Overall, the presentation looked sloppy and the taste was very disappointing. I always like to support local sandwich shops and spread a little love when I can, but this experience just didn't work for me. Sadly, I don't see myself coming back.

Love this casual pizza joint right in the heart of Bellevue. It's friendly to your wallet (~$30 for…read moreall this!), large servings, lovely staff, and delicious. I loved that the pizza crust was crispy on the bottom, but soft & fluffy. Toppings were generous & it wasn't overly greasy. Highly recommend!

This place has the best pizza.. not to mention their steak hoagies are delicious. It's unfortunate…read morethey open up at 11:00 though I thought they would open up a lot sooner.
