This place is a hole in the wall but it is so good! 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! read more

Cincy Steak and Lemonade - Chicago beef - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Although this was not the best experience I've had here, it was a Saturday night and it was very busy. We got the Garden Veggie Burger and it was not very flavorful, and we actually ended up using the sauce that came with the chicken across the street at Hangry Joes. The fries were decent, but a little hard, and they were out of shakes. Service was decently fast but overall it was just really not hitting like usual last night. read more

This place looks like it sells tires, regrets, and maybe bootleg fireworks--but inside? Cheesesteak heaven, burger therapy, and Italian beef that could fix your childhood trauma. I played it safe with the double cheeseburger combo. No fluff, no garnish--just flavor chaos in a bun. Toppings? Elite. Fries? Crispy emotional support. Frozen lemonade? Basically central A/C for your soul. Parking? A scavenger hunt meets Mario Kart. I flunked parallel so we did the "park and pray" out back. Just kidding--we paid like law-abiding citizens with snack-based intentions Packed house. Greasy greatness. I'm telling everyone. Sorry, Cincy--your secret's officially blown. read more

Cincy Steak and Lemonade - Double cheese fries and watermelon lemonade - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Cincy Steak and Lemonade in Clifton is serving up delicious food and fun drinks right on Short Vine. They offer a wide variety of lemonade slushees and milkshakes that pair perfectly with their sandwiches. Each sandwich comes with a side of crispy fries that round out the meal just right (fyi the burgers are halal!). The service isn't bad, they come out with the food pretty quickly. And the inside has about 4-5 booths to sit at or some outside seating for good weather but I'd probably suggest either sitting inside or taking it to go. read more

It was my first time trying it and it did not disappoint! I got the steak meal with a cherry slush. The portion size was more than enough for a big guy like me and the service was fast. The cooks and cashiers were very nice and helpful. The spot is small so I wouldn't recommend bringing the whole family but their takeout service is exceptional. They gave me napkins and ketchup in my to-go bag without asking. Good place to check out if you're searching for a filling sandwich. read more

Honest review incoming... I love trying out "mom and pop" type restaurants like this when I travel And trust me I've been all over the globe. This place was a total miss. I ordered the chicken terriyaki cheeseteak read more

The cheesesteak was Amazing! Lemonade delicious. The service was very friendly. I went with my 8 yr old son on a Wed afternoon after his appointment at Cincinnati Children's. We ate outside at the picnic tables. There were a few unsavory characters, yelling, cursing and smoking weed on the sidewalk. Cars were in and out at the establishment next door which was a barbershop so not sure why so many people were going in and out in such a short amount of time and not getting haircuts. That is the the only reason I am giving it 4 stars. Other than that the food and service were amazing! read more

Cincy Steak and Lemonade - The classic cheesesteak and fries. - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Well I think this is the only place in Cincinnati that I have found that has pretty decent food. The lemonade was delicious and the food was fresh, hot, and seasoned just right. I was worried I wouldn't find anything to eat and stumble across this place. The area is ok,it's a little busy for my liking. I notice a lot of people hanging out in that area. I did dine in and the place was clean. The staff was nice as well. read more

Great food and great milkshakes and frozen lemonades. Can sometimes be a minute as everything is freshly made but service is always friendly. read more

Every time I've eaten here the food has been great. Sometimes customers in there are rude and impatient, yall gotta be nicer. You can tell the staff works very hard, and they're always kind and do their best !!! read more

Sandwich was ok, fries terrible, ketchup the worst, flavored lemonade way too sweet & not the best service v

Would have been 5 stars if the fries were fresher & crispy. Also the feta was strange ... still the cheesesteaks were phenomenal ! Gyro salad needs some vinaigrette on the side .Service was fast too ! read more

Unfortunately I was a little disappointed. We used to love this place a year ago but we got it delivered and the food just wasn't the same. We would always get the gyro cheeseburger and fries with extra Cajun seasoning. The gyro meat was not fresh tasting. The sandwich was doused in so much sauce it was hard to eat, and the fries were stale tasting. It was so disappointing because this place used to be our favorite to order from but after that experience I don't know that we will be ordering again... read more

Food is so good. I especially like the fried Philly sandwich. The fries are crisp and they have a great selection of items.

Not exactly sure why the reviews are as high as they are for this place. We happened to be in the neighborhood and hungry at the same time so we popped in. No one else waiting yet it took a good 20 minutes to receive our order. Husband was not at all impressed with his burger. The fries are clearly just frozen, basic fries. While my sandwich had plenty of meat it was very sloppy and impossible to eat without a fork. I ordered the terriyaki chicken. I pictured Penn Station when ordering. Don't picture that. On the up side, I had plenty of food to bring home. The next day I added the sandwich ingredients to the fries for some impromptu poutine. We're not in the area very often but the next time we are, we'll give another place a try. Nothing here to bring us back. read more

Wow!! I'm so glad we came here. The worker was very friendly and kind. We tried his unique fried cheesesteak sandwich. It was unique and delicious. I love trying new local places when I travel. I'd definitely recommend this place. The frozen lemonade was refreshing. It is neat how you add flavoring to the lemonade. read more

The friendly staff at Cincy Steak and Lemonade on Short Vine will make your order while you wait. If you are attending or working on the UC campus this is a decent spot for carryout gyros, Chicago dogs, Philly steaks, and fries. Meals are big, so you get decent bang for your buck. The real star of the show here is their multi-flavored lemonades, served with a slice of orange over the top. While they do have some seating inside, I suggest ordering ahead, it can take a little while to get your food, particularly if they are busy. read more

Took my girlfriend post-Bengals game watching for her first proper steak and lemonade. The sandwich itself was delicious - piled high with shockingly good steak and cheese. The grilled peppers and onions were a bit raw, but that was the sandwich's only fault. Tried the fruit punch lemonade - was premade and just alright. Probably better in the summer! read more

I love the slushies rainbow is the only way to go! I always get the chicken with extra lemon pepper and fries loaded with cheese and lemon pepper so good! Been going since I was a kid and the service has always been so sweet and will help you decide on a flavor for your slushies or what to eat that day! The gyros are so good and I have never had a bad experience. Nice little spot on a busy street close to uc. You get the college experience and family experience all in one! Great place read more

Awesome food so flavorful! My first time and was recommended by a co worker! Even through DoorDash it was still great!

A Clifton gem! If you're looking to break the diet and get your greasy, salty fix, this is your spot. I have never had anything on the menu that I didn't absolutely love. This time, we got the crispy chicken sandwich and the crispy Philly cheesesteak - amazing. The seasoning they use on their fries is addicting. And of course you have to try their famous flavored icee lemonades. My boyfriend thought his strawberry pineapple lemonade was a bit sweet, but I loved my blue raspberry flavor. Not to mention, everything is extremely cheap! Our bellies our full and so are our wallets. Check it out. read more

Great food. Small place and even though there is a line every time, they do a great job in giving you fresh, seasoned food!

Ok! The milkshakes are good but a bit on the high end (think Graeter's or Smoothie King). The fries are average, cooked a little long and sprinkled w/ Cajun, that doesn't seem to have any salt. The chicken gyro had a massive amount of chicken breast that also entailed lots of gristle. I would go back and try another menu item, maybe a burger. Customer service is efficient and laid back. read more

My husband and I carried out for dinner after a vaccine shot on a very busy Sunday night. While we didn't have to wait to order, the wait time for our food was 20 minutes. As they deliver through DoorDash, and lots of people were picking up, I'm assuming that's what caused the wait time. Besides the cheese steaks, they have a little bit of everything- burgers, chicken, chicken wings, fish, small bites like mozzarella sticks, all-day breakfast, slushies and desserts. For $8.99, I got a huge cheese steak, probably about 8 inches, and a ton of fries. The bread was thick and soft and the beef flavorful. They forgot my mayo, but luckily we had some at home. My husband got chicken tenders and fries for $9.99. There were 4 huge tenders, but his fries had zero salt. Mine, on the other hand were spicy. The fries were the frozen kind, not the freshly cut and fried that are so tasty. If they hadn't come with the meal, I wouldn't buy them. Overall, it's a solid choice for a carry-out meal (or DoorDash delivery) with many choices. read more

Chicken wings have gotten smaller but still very good and tasteful. The philly steaks are the bomb. Overall very good food. read more

Fun but tiny everyone was very friendly. The food was great big fat sandwiches and the Lemonade was delicious! Thought the prices were good . I would go again and try their chili read more

A very good urban eatery. The combos include fries and any flavored lemonade you desire. Burgers, gyros, burger-gyros, phillies, chicken sandwiches. I've been thrice and won't hesitate in the future. Quite a no-frills destination, but it's what you want, when you want it. Not healthy, not trendy, only 4 tables, but it hits the spot when you're in that mood. Phillies are darn good, and the gyro-burger has thick-cut gyro meat and does the trick. Don't go here to impress out-of-towners, but go here to nurse a hangover and get a pretty decent sandwich, fries, and flavored lemonade. Many flavors to choose from. read more

Amazing. Will deliver to you no matter the time. Phenomenal employees DoorDash has hired.

Omg! This Philly Cheese Steak hoagie and spicy fries is really good! We DoorDashed the order and it came hot! The hoagie roll was soft and plentiful, so this sandwich is sure to fill you up! The spicy fries have garlic on them and probably seasoned salt which compliments the sandwich really well! Next time I'm ordering the lemonade slush to go with it! read more

The buffalo chicken Philly cheesesteak was more bbq then buffalo. But still pretty good. Not a great atmosphere for eating in however.

I don't think there's a time I'm not ok with getting food from Cincy steak and lemonade. It's a go to take out spot for me. Now I've only had the classic cheese steaks and the chicken philly. Both are amazing. Super flavorful and delicious. The fries that come with it are seasoned with a Greek seasoning and are very good. The frozen lemonades are also perfect on hot summer days(or any time really). I usually stick with the classic or add strawberry flavor to it. The prices here are dirt cheap and you get a ton of food. I do recommend getting take out since their are only a few tables. This is perfect hang over food, perfect late night food, or perfect for a quick lunch/dinner. You can't go wrong with Cincy steak and lemonade. read more

Food was good and fast. Staff was pleasant. Got a mixed phillysteak sandwich that was flavorful and came with all the toppings. Fries were good with a nice seasoning on them. Tried the rainbow lemonade that was on point. Great place to try!! read more

The menu has many options to choose from. The wings were really good, the gyro was also good , the fries were average. Difficult to find parking on short vine. Willing to give a second try if I'm back in the area read more

So they had great service and location. However parking is difficult and it is in a kinda interesting location. Now my biggest problem is that the food was kinda not my favorite. Maybe it was a bad day or something but for the price. You can't beat it! read more
