    Forbidden Fruit salad with extra chicken and edamame added
    Liz F.

    I tried Green District today and I'm excited to try more of their salads in the future. I had the forbidden fruit as there was a deal on it. I'm not usually someone who adds fruit or sweet things to my salad but it was a great combination! I added chicken and edamame to the normal salad recipe. I'm glad I added the extra chicken because there wasn't a lot even with the extra so I assume there wouldn't have been enough protein for me in a normal serving. I ordered takeout on the app at lunch. It was ready on time and it was really efficient!

    The What About Cobb salad all of my coworkers rave about it & now I see why it's so good & fills you up for the rest of the day
    Karen D.

    I've been enjoying Green District salads from the Fountain Square location for over a year now. Fresh, filling salads and wraps. Do yourself a favor & download the GD app order on the app, customize your order to your liking and pick it up in no time. Everyone is so friendly and each salad and wrap is so delicious from the Cobb which will fill you up for the rest of the day, Kickin Chili Chicken with hatch chicken, the Steak me home tonight all so good. Thanks Green District for making fresh, healthy salads in Downtown Cincinnati

    The GD Special salad
    Patrice B.

    Green district is easily one of my favorite places to visit for lunch! I love the GD salad with the avocado ranch! The ingredients are always so fresh and packed with flavor. The app is easy to use and the associates always provide great service. Only giving it 4 stars because I was missing extra paid items for my salad. I will also recommend ordering ahead as this place gets incredibly busy during lunch hours!

    Stopped in here more or less by accident while staying nearby for business. I just happened to be walking by and saw Green District. I popped in and got kind of a Chipotle vibe but for salads. Interesting concept. When I came inside I was greeted and the menus were overhead the counter. I ordered the "Livin on the Veg" salad and was on my way quickly. The employee that took my order was kind and the same that made my salad. The living on the veg salad was quite good. Great fresh ingredients and very nice flavors throughout. The interior is nice with both indoor and outdoor seating. I simply took mine to go but the dining area looked nice and clean. I enjoyed the salad and would come back again.

    Ricky Bobby-Q wrap
    Kyle B.

    Solid quick lunch situation. Ordered online and the food was ready upon arrival. Got the Ricky Bobby-Q wrap and I was impressed by the flavor. Lots of sauce. Hearty. Chicken was tender. The place looked clean with lots of tables. Will order again when I forget to pack a lunch.

    Firebird salad - subbed onion straws for croutons. Yum!
    Jennifer C.

    Green District is one of my go to lunch spots downtown. I'm always looking for a healthy and fast option and this place fits the bill. You can order using their app and my food is always ready for pickup when I arrive. The service is great and I love their firebird salad. The customization options on the app are great too. Highly recommend for those downtown workers who want quality but quick food!

    Hide & Go Greek salad
    Amber C.

    I placed an online order. It was ready before the stated time. The staff was incredibly friendly and greeted me warmly as soon as I walked in. I wish I loved the salad as much as I loved the customer service. The food was okay, not as good as some of the other salad shops. Perhaps I'll be back to try a wrap.

    Thai One On salad
    Scott F.

    Great salad / health lunch alternative downtown Cincinnati. I'm glad we chose to walk in that day and not order ahead online - that line was huge. The salad was delicious and came quick enough that even tho the dining area had a good number of people too

    This place is a go-to lunch spot of mine! I work downtown and am always looking for quick, healthy, convenient places to stop by on my lunch break. This place is perfect for that -- it's got a wide variety on the menu of protein-packed and greens-filled wraps, salads, and sandwiches, plenty of seating, and they have crazy quick turnarounds if you're in a time crunch. They've always been friendly while being efficient, which I appreciate. They have great discounts and, from what I've heard, a good rewards program in the app. Highly recommend - definitely a favorite on my list!

    a salad and a burrito

    GD is offers up fresh, custom salads and wraps! Perfect to walk to for lunch or for a lighter option! Do not pass on the Pasta Salad or Hummus!

    Came here during restaurant week just to try the restaurant and can say I will be back!…read more I ordered the Ceaser salad with the short rib empanada and short rib gnocchi. The Ceaser salad was the best Ceaser salad I ever had! The short rib empanada and the gnocchi was good as well but the gnocchi was covered in scallions. That wasn't stated on the menu or by our server when I asked if onions were in the dish, so unfortunately I did have to send that back and have it remade then ate the rest once I got back home. I also tried the Black Angus NY and it melt in my mouth like butter. They were busy and it did take a while for the food to come out but the wait was worth it.

    Wow! What a way to spend our 1 year wedding anniversary! I loved this place…read more It has been a few months since eating here but I still find myself thinking about it. Our next trip to Cincinnati; It will be extremely difficult to stay away from here. We spent the day in Newport and around Cincinnati and wanted somewhere nice for the occasion. I was iffy on this place at first... you can throw a rock all over America and hit a place with 'Barrel' in the name these days. The Yelp reviews swing both ways here but I'm here to tell you my take... because it swings so far towards the 5 stars that it's very much a 6 or 7 star place(maybe more). We gauged our arrival time based on other activities that day. We wanted ample time at the nearby Lego exhibit so when we arrived there, we made a reservation for 4:30-5. Eating early and making our way back to Louisville was a great idea. The entire time we were there, no one else came in so we had the entire place to ourselves(It was a Friday). The atmosphere is homey but during busy times, I could see it being noisy. The booths could easily fit 6 people comfortably... probably 8 in some cases depending on how wide some of you are. Special Note: This place highlights The Parrillada Experience for Two on their menu and we wanted it! We didn't order it because at a price tag of 130-and pictures online, we didn't want it to be a failed outing. After our first trip, The Parrillada Exp will be on the agenda next time. It's a mixture of different steaks, sausages, shrimp, sides, and salads. Definitely worth the cost. On to the food: Sausage App - Argentine Chorizo. Farmhouse Sausage. Grilled Ciabatta. Hearts of Palm. Green/Red chimichurri. Pepper Relish. I don't like ordering this type of dish when I go places because you never know if it's going to be delicious or very bad. It ended up being super delicious. We couldn't make up our mind which sauce we liked the best and which meat we liked the best. App PERFECTION! Land and Sea - This is what my wife went with. Asada Skirt Steak. Jumbo Shrimp. Asparagus. Red chimichurri butter. I had bites of the shrimp and it was good. I had to save room for my dish. Wagyu Denver Cut - I went back and forth. Lobster ravioli being on the menu almost made my decision instant but I was going back and forth between ravioli, steak, and a few other things. I asked the server which he recommended of the 4 Chef's cuts. He recommended two... one of which was the Wagyu so I went with it. I wasn't disappointed AT ALL. He mentioned that the Wagyu Denver Cut was a new addition to the menu... I'm not sure but you could definitely tell it was cooked, arranged, and presented with care. I savored every angle of every bite. We also ordered a side of brussels because of course! Originally we were going to dessert somewhere else but went ahead and ordered the Hazelnut Vanilla Creme Brulee here. Perfect ending to the meal. This brulee was light and had the right amount of crunch. It was also larger than expected. We had no complaints with this place. Easily one of the better restaurants I've had in Cincinnati. If you're doubting visiting this place, take the dive! Other notes: They have beer and a small cocktail variety but they primarily seem focused on wine(plenty of options to choose from).

    Northstar Cafe never disappoints. Seriously, this place is stamped in our book…read more The service is almost always A1, and even when the food takes a little longer than usual, they usually make up for it somehow or throw us a comp card, which we definitely appreciate. I also LOVE the setup here. You pay first, get your food second, and everything just seems to run smoothly. No unnecessary waiting around trying to figure out what's going on. My wife and I usually rotate between the pancakes, the hash, the Northstar Burger, or the potato hash. Honestly, you really can't go wrong with any of them. The food is always fresh, portions are good, and everything comes out looking like somebody actually cared about what they put on the plate. We probably go once or twice a week, especially for brunch. At this point, Northstar is basically family. And if you're like us and pretty picky about where you eat, this is definitely one that gets the stamp of approval. Great food, good atmosphere, and consistently solid service. One more thing: I believe they play jazz after 6 PM Monday through Friday, which is always a nice little bonus. Overall, definitely recommend if you're looking for good food with a nice ambiance. Northstar has a permanent spot in our rotation!

    Came here for the first time and had the chicken sandwich... it was crazy good. The flavor was…read moreabsolutely incredible and it tasted so fresh. The menu in general is small but full of classic American food with a bit of a modern twist. We also really enjoyed the fountain soda machine. It's great that they use a local company instead of just using Coke-a-Cola! The ordering system is different than at most restaurants (you order at the counter before getting served at your seat), but the line moves quickly. What was especially awesome about our experience at Northstar was the service. There was a very slight mistake on our order (a burger that we asked for no cheese came with cheese), and, although we didn't mind at all, Northstar went above and beyond to make it right.
