    Great staff, fresh hot food, but i'm biased because i eat here daily. I highly recommend the breakfast plate with double eggs and crispy bacon.

    This deserves a half star. Ordered this in the drive-thru and by the time I got to my destination it was too late to return. About 3 miles down the road there was a foul smell in my car. It was very faint so I chalked it up to be coming from outside. The smell was intermittent for the duration of the ride. When arrived and final opened my carry out container the smell was profuse. It was the sausage links. I've gotten sausage links from Frisch's and they have never been this pale or weird looking. My breakfast dreams were ruined. I haven't been to this Frisch's in Hartwell in a long time. I now remember why, my last visit was less than stellar.

    Caramel last onions on the impossible burger! really?

    I just left Frishes today 4\28 and order them impossible burger it was impossible okay the cheese wouldn't melt it I literally had corner Up there supposed to be amazing target sauce it was amazing OK one squirt on the top bun with onions on my sandwich I asked for extra tartar sauce they gave me a squirt on top I spent $20 on two burgers The only thing doubles impossible was I should've kept that $20 do not eat there they ain't right in and they told me in order to get my money back or anything I will have to bring the burger back so I explained I was passing through I won't be back that way till Monday must I hold my food until then to get a credit???????? They're writing for me was a -10 absolutely horrific

    Hot Fudge Cake like you expect it!  Yum!

    We have been in here several times in the last year and it is exactly as you would expect. Several weeks ago, we went through the drive through and they forgot our Hot Fudge Cakes. When we arrived at our destination, I called and Donna gave me a "credit". I wrote down a number on the original receipt and stuck it in my purse. I really never thought it made up for the error but today we ate lunch and when we were done I produced the receipt with the "credit" written on it. Our waitress, Julie immediately took care of it. We got a hot fudge cake to enjoy there and they pack one up us to take with us! Julie and Donna hit a home run! All Frisch's seem to consistently deliver good food at a good price. It's usually cooked right and it always seems to please us. But this location stands out because of the people who make it special. Thank you Donna and Julie - for several good experiences and one visit that make them all - GREAT!

    still one of the best value family restaurants in the Cincinnati area. The breakfast bar is still one of the best DAILY values anywhere.

    The food is good. We're not talking about gourmet food. But, it hits the spot. Good place to take the family when you're on a budget.

    Milkman, you were so, so, so good to me! I've never been into the restaurant, though I have gotten…read moreDoorDash once before. It was as delicious as I wanted it to be! When my friend and I walked in, we were greeted by such a sweet staff who immediately welcomed us in, shared their thoughts on the menu (since we were first-timers), and suggested we leave a review (they were so lovely, so how could we not!) The entire restaurant feels like the diner Sam worked at in Cinderella Story from the early 2000s - very vintage, very retro, very 50s! It's what I imagine restaurants looking like when my grandparents went on dates when they were my age. I had gotten the tofu nugs via DoorDash, which were better IRL and the milkshake was scrumptious too! My friend got the Milkman Burger, fries, and a fruity pebbles shake. It was all great but let me tell ya...we had this meal almost two weeks ago and I'm STILL dreaming of those French fries. I have had so many iterations of fried potato before...shoestring, steak, wedges, sweet potato, those made from yuca, curly, dipped in ice cream, etc. and these are the best fries I've had in my life. If I could live off the fries, I would. They were that good. I already have plans to share this place with other friends of mine as it has officially worked its way into the rotation for me!

    I got the make your own burger with meat patty, grilled onions, pickles, and special sauce. It was…read morepretty good in all honesty. I did have it to go so all I can tell you is the food was pretty good. I don't know how much I can actually recommend it. The best thing it is down town Cinci so it's decent enough to go to for lunch.

    I came here for lunch on a Friday and fell in love this this place!…read moreWe arrived a little after 11, so right before the rush, and were greeted warmly. They seated us promptly and immediately someone was taking drink orders. Our waitress was very kind, offered helpful recommendations, and made the visit fun. I ordered the goomba fromlette and my coworker got the chicken sandwich. We also ordered sides of potato pancakes and garlicky greens to share. The fromlette is huge! It looked so good and tasted even better! The vegetables in it were well seasoned and perfectly cooked. The cheese and sauce on top complemented all the flavors very well. And the eggs themselves that made the base were perfectly done. I ate it all and left feeling so full and happy. I also have to talk about the sides. The potato pancakes are heavenly, and I could make a meal out of just them. The outsides are perfectly crispy and the inside melts in your mouth. I am literally still thinking about them. The garlicky greens are also fantastic and actually were the same vegetables that came in my fromlette. I loved them so much I was happy to eat more. They are very savory, saucy, and hit the spot. My coworker also really enjoyed the chicken sandwich, and ate all of it even though it made her so full. I will for sure be back. This place is so cute and intimate, the workers are all so happy, and the menu has so many great dishes that I cannot wait to try them all!

We had a reservation for two and for some reason they sat us directly next to the loud kitchen. Entire building open and we got bad seats just baffles me. The prime rib carpaccio was basically lunch meat with arugula. We liked the crispies but overall it's not something we really enjoyed and would not order again. It would have been better served on toast maybe. This was something we'd never had before and did not know what to expect so that's on us. 22 oz ribeye and potatoes are ok, a lesser version of sotto. steak was crisped well, not as much fat as usual which i liked. the crispy lasagne was ok. sauce is a tad spicy which was fine. kitchen manager or head chef came out to speak with us and he was very friendly. our server was Jenna. espresso martini - great, done well with strong espresso flavor and foam on top the red borough - very good, comparable to a manhattan blueberry spritz - very fruity, easy drinker s'mores was ok but honestly could do without the ice cream The ambiance is nice, very cute and clean. chairs were different and comfortable! Overall, it was ok. Not one of our top ranked places in cincy.

The place is bright and friendly with what appeared to be many regular patrons. Our server was nice and helpful. I ordered an omelette with a hotcake and he got two eggs over easy with goetta. Our meal came with toast too. We ordered rye and whole wheat. Candidly, the food didn't have any flavor. The potatoes were the most bland. My veggie omelette had large sliced vegetables inside vs smaller pieces. The huge hotcake was thick and I'm guessing that's the difference between a hotcake and a pancake. It was good but not great. Glad we stopped by. Atmosphere very nice, service was great. We won't return due to the food. Just not good, no flavor.

A couple notes I'd share with the restaurant: the entrée prices feel a bit high, and the gravy was unfortunately too thick and under-seasoned for our taste. I'd definitely give this place another try, but I wouldn't order the gravy again. They also missed one of our entrées, so my daughter didn't get her food until about 18 minutes after everyone else. The ambiance is cozy and no-frills, giving that classic local diner feel. The service was extremely friendly, and you can tell they have a solid base of regulars who enjoy eating here.
