we went here for breakfast on a Saturday morning and had a wonderful experience. They have remodeled it looks much more up-to-date and fresh. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by the hostess and before we sat down our waitress asked what we would like to drink. My husband had the breakfast bar, everything was freshly prepared and well stocked. He enjoyed the variety of meats such as Guetta bacon and sausage, biscuits and gravy as well as pancakes and fresh fruit. He said his food was delicious. I had a bacon egg and cheese toast breakfast sandwich which was wonderful! It had a lot of bacon on it and was freshly prepared and delicious. I was given an entire carafe of coffee just for myself as my husband doesn't drink it which was a nice touch. We had a very good meal and Frisches at this location didn't disappoin! If you want a homestyle breakfast this is for you nothing fancy but clean delicious food and great service. read more

Frisch's Big Boy - A nostalgic tribute to Bellevue with part of the remodel. - Diners Near Me - Bellevue, Kentucky

Ordered fish sandwich had very little tartar sauce and was cold the onion rings was also cold and hard as a rock

I ordered online and picked it up at the drive thru window. The young lady at the window was nice but the food left a lot to be desired. The onion rings were soft and not crispy like they used to be. The fish was good but the bun fell apart half way through. The cole slaw isn't like it used to be. It had larger pieces of cabbage and the taste wasn't as good as the past. Frisch's food has gone downhill in the last 20 years. It's no wonder they have shut down some restaurants and frankly if this is now the quality they need to shut down all of them. Darn shame. I grew up with Frisch's but it isn't like I remember! read more

We stopped here for lunch recently and it was good. The big boy burger and chicken sandwich were tasty. My daughter enjoyed her breakfast for lunch. The chocolate shake was tasty. Service was good. I feel like the employees were angry with each other. Worth checking out as it is a great value for your money. read more

Frisch's Big Boy - Big Boy Combo - Diners Near Me - Bellevue, Kentucky

Stopped by for lunch/brunch at noon on a Sunday. Surprised at how busy they were. Cars lined up at the drive through. We ate in with a group of six. They set up a table quickly. Super service. Talked to the manager about the old days. He updated us on some recent efforts to maintain the Frisch's traditions. They're doing a great job. Big Boys , chili, onion rings , Buddy Boys , all as we remembered. Vegetable soup even better. Buffet set up for breakfast until 2 pm and regular buffet also.. Definitely pricey but what isn't. Keep in up read more

I was a little hesitant when I saw how busy it was, but Betty Jo greeted me immediately despite that. I was seated in a comfortable booth. She took my drink order (vanilla Coke) and left me with the menu to peruse. When she returned with my drink, she asked my name. That's such a nice touch and something that rarely happens anymore. She has called me Kirk every time she's swung by the table. She also made sure that my order was absolutely correct. This is not her first day, you can tell. (Actually, she informed me she's been doing this for 13 years. She's definitely a pro.) I told her I might be interested in dessert; she brought me the check with the caveat that she could add dessert anytime. But my favorite touch is that attached to the bill is a post-it note that says "Shine Your Light." The food was good and hot. The vanilla Coke remains one of the best beverage options anywhere in the city. But when I come back, it'll be for the exceptional service. Betty Jo is a treasure. read more

Frisch's Big Boy - What a great touch! - Diners Near Me - Bellevue, Kentucky

Excellent service by Betty Jo! We were seated promptly, and she was very kind. She seemed to have a lot of tables, but she was hustling! She made sure our drinks were refilled, and she left a kind note on our receipt. The food was also very good. The pancakes were very buttery and well-sized. I ordered the three stack but probably only needed two. My dad got the Big Boy Meal and throughly enjoyed it. Nice place and good atmosphere. Would definitely come again. read more

This Frisch's is a good location during the weekdays and hitting the drive through. However on the weekends during breakfast it gets a little hectic. The host stand will be unattended for extended periods of time, and the wait times are long. Typically your best bet is the breakfast bar on the weekends. read more

Oh, Frisch's in Bellevue has a lot of work to do. No one greeted me when I walked in. After waiting a while, I saw an employee preparing the Wednesday buffet bar. I seated myself because the employee was of no help. No waitress came by so I got up and asked for help. Decided to do the buffet. Finally, after sitting down again a waitress came to the table and asked if I wanted something to drink. Just a coke, please. She came back and splashed the over-filled glass' contents onto the table. Didn't bother to wipe the table. I would say the glass was 80% filled with ice. Shocked that it cost $3.79, mainly for a glass of ice. I had asked for a coke. Anyway, the food was bland. Had to wait at the checkout, took a while. Once the cashier arrived, no paper receipt because they ran out of paper. No tip for delivering a $3.79 glass of mostly ice. No intentions on going back. read more

Soooooo disappointed!!! most of the area Frisch's restaurants closed in Cincinnati and Kentucky areas. I was over in Kentucky found a Bellevue location and ordered my beloved club chicken sandwich combo and a cup of chili. Cost 19 bucks. since they close so many locations the quality of their food has deteriorated. the cup of chili was more like 6 oz. the chicken club was no longer a breaded filet but a processed piece of chicken man-made chicken patty. Thin and tasteless. along with the fact that the price of everything was higher I will never go to Frisch's again, since precious is no longer "Frisch's". the service was still great though. read more

We love all of our Cincinnati favorites, especially Frisch's Big Boy!! Always nice coming over to this one in Bellevue, the employees are wonderful and the food is always hot and fresh. An extra thank you and shout out to our wonderful waitress, Brenda!! read more

May 15, 2024 Wednesday FRISCHS IN BELLEVUE KY BRUPPER Nite. Breakfast for supper. Buffet style. Reasonable $8.99 per. We had looked forward to it for a week. Only 6 tables were occupied. We were confused. It was around 6:00 pm. As soon as we started serving ourselves, we understood. The eggs, home fries, grits, tiny pancakes, rock hard goetta, bacon,sausage etc...I can't go on. Worst restaurant food ever! Two waitresses...no food was replaced. I could not bring myself to complain! How could they NOT KNOW. FRISCHS has been sliding downhill for an extend time. I've tried to be loyal for old times sake... that's it. Can't go on. STAR MINUS ONE ! read more

If you're in town for any event, you must stop by this Frisch's. The food is AMAZING, of course. But what makes you want to keep coming back is the people. The store is clean and inviting. The crew is friendly and laughing which tells you they have a good environment to work in. All and all just an uplifting experience! read more

The he breakfast bar was okay, but added charge for regular eggs which is included at every other location nearby. Called customer service to get answers. Left all of my contact info and haven't heard anything back in over two weeks. Frisch's corporate sucks anymore. Was nice when they were Cincinnati based. Now somewhere in California or God knows where read more

Had the worst experience i've ever had at probably any restaurant. We went on a Sunday morning so a wait on tables/food is expected. We ordered our food and from the start our waitress was rude and unhelpful, we waited for an hour and 15 minutes and she brought out three wrong plates over the course of that time. We weren't about to wait on our check so we went up to pay for our food and the waitress lied saying we refused the food when we refused because it was all wrong. The restaurant was not even functioning at full capacity and they acted like it was a war zone. Just go to a different location. read more

Betty Jo and the salad bar make this the best Frisch's I've ever been to! I live in Columbus and I only come to this location! If I could give a million stars I would! read more

Ordered on Uber Eats. Forgot fries. Out of shakes. Took too long. Horrible experience

The most orally orgasmic burger I've ever tasted. I took my first bite and said "well slap my ass and call me Frisch's!!! Zoo wee mama". And then I came so hard read more

Worst experience I've ever had!!! I ordered chicken fingers and they were so small and over done that I had to send them back. And they were not happy with me. Our waitress was rude and unhelpful. Worst Big Boy I have ever been to. read more

Frisch's is a Cincinnati tradition. Dip your fries in the signature tartar sauce for a burst of flavor! The salad bar is great. The breakfast bar is an affordable alternative to going somewhere fancy when you need some breakfast variety. Vanilla Coke is made with real vanilla. I even like the chili spaghetti. Family diner food is the best way to describe Frisch's. Some people I know enjoy the liver and onions. (Not me but to each his own) During lent it is a great place for a big 'ol fish sandwich on a rye bun. read more

Very good service and waitress. She brought us new onion rings as the ones that came with our meal we're over cooked. Burgers and other items were juicy and good. We even got bendy straws! Good place for families! read more

Received a fish sandwich, refried and with just the teaspoon of tartar sauce. Most disgusting sandwich and ended up throwing it in the garbage . I will never return again!!!! read more

staff was super friendly food was hot and fresh managers was the best we felt really at home will definitely be back

You wouldn't necessarily expect amazing service from what is essentially a fast-food restaurant, but this location is truly awesome. The servers love what they are doing and it shows. This visit we tried the breakfast bar for the first time and the selection was diverse and it had something for everyone. read more

The food was good but the lady took my 50 bucks and i only owed 23 dollars and i am very upset with customer servoce

If you want an argument against paying $15 minimum wage stop by here..... Place was slow yet dirty no ranch on the bar and bowls were dirty. This is the take out for my father. read more

Finally, after 200 years of Cincinnati's love affair with goetta, somebody finally did it!! Goetta to go! The new breakfast sandwiches, one is goetta, egg and cheese on a brioche bun. And you can get it at the drive thru!! I'm so happy now. Made my day. It's really good!! read more

Kinda not so fresh feeling. It was kinda late when we chose thise place. It was our first night in town and it was raining and dark ...we drove around to find nothing else open and this was literally right by our hotel. The salad bar seemed sad. The silverware was extremely dirty. Fish and chips and onion rings all tasted the same. Pie was ok. Limeade was strange tasting. Anyway. The saltines settled my stomach and the veg soup was not too bad. If anything else is open, go there. read more

Dirt cheap prices for breakfast and friendly service, yes, I'm a fan of that! On a busy Sunday morning I ate here with several friends. Our waitress Monique was very personable and great with bringing out refills. After a short wait I ate hashbrowns which were a nice golden brown, a fried egg, biscuit, and crispy bacon. This breakfast was under $5! read more

Great service! The food was hot and correct, it was a last minute decision to stop by the drive through and it was worth it.

We ate at the one in bellevue and the guy who has glasses who works the buffet bar is rude as hell when I asked if they was going to put more grits, biscuits, gravy, and potatoes out on the bar. It took them 45 minutes to replace any food on the breakfast bar. I told the manager that the melted cheese was all runny and she said it would be replaced and it never was. Also at one booth when we was going to sit at had 2 bed bugs I seen crawling on the seats, this was and is the worst frisches ever I've attended. read more

Our server was super friendly and ready to cater to our every need (even though we are low maintenance and don't required much). I was happy enough until I heard another server exclaim to her table that there was more food in the microwave on it's way out. Way to upsell the breakfast bar! Needless to say, I didn't eat much knowing it wasn't really cooked. The coffee is a big sell for me, but it was too strong and too pungent to drink more than a cup. read more

the worst service I have ever had. the manager Eric is rude, extremely unhelpful, they messed up my order, missing 3 items and when we requested they bring it out they said no and hung up the phone. requested they bring it out so we didnt have to get back in the drive through line of 10 cars again. every single time I have been to this place they miss items in your order ever single time. read more

The 4 stars is for the service we had last Saturday night! We had just left another local sports wings bar were we had horrible service and never got our food. We walked in BIG BOY and it was 180 degree difference. The service was great and the cheese burger was even vary tasty. They treated my daughter extremely well and I'm happy they stepped up. Great job guys read more

I had a wonderful experience this morning at this Frisch's location because of Betty jo who was working the drive through. Her customer service skills were excellent!!! read more

It's Frisch's, so nothing to write home about, really. But this one is clean and friendly. The food is, well, Frisch's standard fare. But it'll do in a pinch. I'm living temporarily on the riverfront and this place is convenient, if nothing else. Today (which is my 3rd or 4th visit, but first check-in and review), I had the all you can eat soup and salad bar. The vegetable soup was outstanding and they promise me it's made from scratch, not out of a can. I got up to go to the salad bar one time and someone cleaned my table for me before I got back to sit down. I had to order a new drink and silverware. But it was all good. So, if you're looking for something quick and cheep, go here. read more

Wow ... first of all, I've never been impressed with Frisch's. I think it's one of those Midwest things where nostalgia overrides tastebuds. But this particular Frisch's must be the most depressing place in the area. Very few customers and those that were there looked like something out of "Shawn of the Dead" meets "Trainspotting". The Big Boy burger itself reminds me of a high school cafeteria burger with tartar sauce. The fries are nondescript and the salad bar is ... well, bare to say the least. I will say that the waitstaff was cheerful and helpful, but you can't cheer your way out of bad food. read more

I grew up in this area, and at times, there is nothing better than a Big Boy, a Patty Melt or a Swiss Miss. But, this is not my normal Frisch's location--and boy howdy, is it lacking. The building itself has been updated, it's an easy location to get to and my food was fine--once I actually got seated and waited on, but that doesn't change the fact that this location has, quite possibly, the most uneducated, unmotivated, unhygenic staff in all of Northern Kentucky. Note: my server was fine--I had to ask for her help since the counter was completely unmanned--it wasn't her area, but she was efficient and nice--all I'm asking for on my lunch hour. I walked in to the restaurant to a wait to be seated sign. Not a problem usually, but noone came. When the hostess finally did come, I was behind two women (well, one was, the other was rather young) with 5 children between them. It became readily apparent that the younger of the two is/was an employee of this location, and brought in her infant for a visit. The hostess asked them where they'd like to sit (?) and out came the seating chart, a long debate, a telephone call taken by the young mother who I'll call Snooki for her rockstar sunglasses, hair and short-shorts). Still no decision on the seat, but much gum chewing, children pulling each other's hair, and more hem hawing about where to sit, I got sick of being ignored and chose the counter. While I waited MORE at the counter for someone to notice me, the young mother took her infant to the cash register to see a employee who was, by all accounts, still on the clock. She sat the baby on the counter, and then the woman behind the counter picked up the infant and took her into the food prep area. Look--I'm a mother, and as much as I think babies are adorable, they are also germ factories and it's just not cool to take a baby into the area where customers food is being prepared, not to mention, unsafe. My other favorite part was when she told an elderly man (a regular) with a cane who was trying to pay his bill, that she was "off" and someone else would have to take him, when she swooped up the baby and disappeared. As if this young mother really WAS Snooki, all of the servers save a few older gals working diligently (to pay bills, no doubt) fawned over her and chatted her up and left countless tables unattended. I finally had to ask someone to take my order, ate quickly and got the hell out of there. I guess it's what I'd expect for that part of Bellevue...I won't be back, but if you choose to go, make sure it's your day off and that you have ample time to watch the sights, if that's your thing. read more
