    a plate of food and a bowl of rice
    Lori S.

    Ordered takeout tonight of Sweet & Sour Chicken, Beef & Broccoli, Steamed Rice and Egg Rolls from First Wok in Erlanger. It was all delicious as usual...and extra fortune cookies for Lucy! We just love Ching, the owner, she is so friendly and welcoming. This was my moms favorite place to go for lunch, and Ching would always make a point of sitting down and talking to her. If you haven't tried them, you have been missing out on some of the best Chinese takeout food in NKy!

    blob of mushy rice

    not happy at all with either meal. the bourbon chicken and the sesame chicken were bland and tough the fried rice was not fried rice it was a blob of mushy yellow rice that tasted as poorly as it looked sorry but not a fan and feel like i just threw 50 bucks out the window ughh

    fried dumplings in a styrofoam container

    I usually love this place but today... wow. HORRIBLE! The crab Rangoon a were so off. They tasted terrible.. spoiled almost. The rice was still crunchy.. the chicken in the moo goo gai pan was so big and had a hard texture. Couldn't even eat my meal. The only thing that tasted good was the spring roll. Absolutely disgusted and so disappointed. Basically threw away $15!!! Time to looks elsewhere

    The egg drop soup was tasteless, crab Rangoon was greasy but the sweet and sour chicken was good. Probably won't return

    We had dinner here tonight and the service was so slow. We had appetizers served and it was a long…read moretime before our server returned to take our dinner order. We should have just left at that point but our kids were hungry. Dinner was finally served and it was good, but no one seemed very concerned about how long we waited. We asked for our check and then we were given the wrong, much more expensive check. I'm not sure if they were understaffed but the restaurant was only half full when we arrived. I wish we hadn't dropped $90 on this dinner.

    I've finally found a new go-to restaurant for when I'm flying out of CVG! My usual favorite is…read moreTousey House, but they aren't open for dinner on Sundays so I needed to find an alternative. Fort Mitchell Public House Bar and Grill checks all of my boxes. The first thing I look for is a nice patio. Unfortunately the weather wasn't cooperating today, but I will be back for this fabulous patio. I was there before the dinner rush, which explains the emptiness of the restaurant. More people started arriving after 5:00. There were so many yummy sounding choices on the menu that it was hard to decide. I asked my server, Erin, what she recommends and she said the CAJUN BOURBON FILET TIPS were her favorite. I went with that and was not disappointed. The filet was cooked and seasoned perfectly. It is served over mashed potatoes and topped with onion straws. While the beef portion was small, it was a satisfying meal and the flavors were perfection! I added a side Caesar salad. Their house-made croutons were so good and the dressing was tasty and perfectly portioned. I don't often order dessert, but decided to splurge tonight and got a slice of the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake to-go. OMG, this is one of the best cheesecakes I've ever had. It was light and dense at the same time, if that makes sense. So creamy and melt in your mouth delicious. I will dream about it tonight LOL.
