    Sheltered patio.
    Nanette B.

    Mellow bar in Northside serving up great food from a limited but tempting menu. I opted for the sesame noodles and can't stop thinking about them. They were so good, I inhaled them before I could take a photo. The small serving is very generous but I want to go back for a larger serving one day soon. My husband really liked his cheeseburger and my daughter's salmon salad was excellent. Order at the bar and a server brings the food to you. Indoor and sheltered outdoor spaces. Recommended!

    The spaghett. It was surprisingly delish.

    Fantastic good and drinks. This was my second visit and I brought friends because it's so tasty. But it was not quite as great as last time. The food was outstanding. Burgers, noodles, salmon sandwich, all were great! I had a side salad that was incredibly fresh and so perfectly balanced. A couple things disappointed this time - service and the lack of local draft beers, The bartenders seemed more interested in taking care of regulars at the bar vs anyone else. We waited 5 minutes for someone to take our order standing next to the bar while 'regulars' walked up, sat down and had their orders taken. I was so surprised by this - completely unlike my first experience here. Next up, local beers? There are some great locally owned breweries (e.g. Humble Monk) and they only offered two beers on tap. It's a missed opportunity for local businesses to support each other and to offer a better variety of draft beers. The food and drink are a FIVE. Our service experience was a ONE. So, I'd give this place a 3 based on my latest experience.

    I really like Gulow Street, but my boyfriend LOOOOOVES it. It's a bit off the beaten path, but worth a detour. They don't have an extensive menu, but all that's on there is good. The BF is a huge fan of the burger... I don't know that over ever seen him order anything else. As for me, I think I've ordered almost everything on the menu or close to it. The egg sandwich is great. The rigatoni bolognese is delish. the salmon salad sandwich is delicious. My fave was the ham and butter sandwich, but I had them add pimento cheese to it, and that made it Oh! I haven't had the sesame noodles yet. Guess I know what I'm getting next time!

    This place is a hidden jewel of NorthSide. My friend hipped me to this place and I am now a big fan. They have a great food menu, try the salmon salad sandwich, heavenly!!! It's so good. They have great wonderful drinks. The bartender know what they are doing. Happy hours drinks Deals are the best. 4-7. You gotta come see that for yourself. It's a cute retro place and it may just be your favorite spot too. . They have a patio in the back that is also awesome as well! Come check it out! I'm mad I didn't know about this place before this week!

    Gulow Street is located at the corner of Hoffner and you guessed it Gulow St. This place is small but mighty in terms of menu and space. This is a pub with some very creative seating out back which gives you dining options. You order at the bar and they give you a number and they bring the food out to you. The bar staff were nice and took time to explain things to us and took our orders and made recommendations, which was much appreciated. My wife opted for the Basil Paloma and loved it. She enjoys subtle drinks and this fit the bill. They have a nice selection of beers which is surprising considering the size of the place. We both chose the Cheeseburger and added bacon with me also adding chips, I love a sandwich with chips, and the food came out fairly quickly despite them being busy. This burger was juicy and enjoyable to say the least. The burger is a must have and made the night great. Tips to make your visit a success: 1) Don't forget about Happy hour. We went for Happy hour and the deals they offered can be passed on. Two dollar beer (Miller High Life) and Three dollar well drinks are right up my alley. 2) Wednesday is fried egg sandwich day. On Wednesdays they open at seven am and the serve breakfast. Don't miss out. This place will be your new go to spot in no time!!

    Masala Egg Breakfast Sandwich - half eaten because I was so excited to dig in
    Kelly H.

    Okay, I have to admit I don't make it to Northside very often at all and if not for @cincyeats on IG I may not have even heard about Gulow Street for quite some time just because I feel like Northside does a pretty good job of keeping their Hidden Gems, well, hidden (which I love, so I'm sorry if this messes with that vibe)! But because I love a great breakfast sandwich I ventured over this morning for their weekly (Wednesdays from 7-11a) breakfast sandwich morning and OH MY GOODNESS! This was one of THE BEST sandwiches (breakfast or not) that I've ever eaten! I ordered their Masala Egg Sandwich and it left me impatiently counting down the days until I can go back again for another! The flavors blended together seamlessly and tasted like they were always meant to belong together; the ciabatta was fresh and delicious; and the owner/staff were friendly and inviting. All of this to say that I 100% will not be sleeping on their regular dinner menu from now on! If the breakfast sandwich was as good as it was, I can't wait to try the rest!

    Such a cute little restaurant/bar, feel like one of the most renovated restaurant in Northside, big fan of the decor! The food and drink menu is small, but the food is quite fresh and delicious, and very affordable! They allow dogs in the back patio too.

    The food here is far better than regular bar food. The fishes were spectacular. We've been here many times and will continue to return.

    Salmon salad sandwich is top tier and the staff is absolutely amazing! Drinks are superb and a lowkey atmosphere! Go there already!

    I've never had so much fun in any bar as I've had at Good Judy's. The vibe is 'throwing a gay house…read moreparty while Grandma is out of town,' which makes for a great space to hang out and chill. The intimate dance space in the back continues that feel--instead of being intimidated by a giant open floor, you'll end up making friends and bopping in the little space as I did. I can't testify to drinks, but I appreciated the availability of nonalcoholic beverages like hot chocolate and house made lemonade. And the staff--especially the DJ--were so welcoming! My friend and I were gay bar newbies and didn't want to leave because the energy was so good--a strong recommendation here!

The cutest interior, this queer+ bar has two main spaces. The front bar area and a back dance floor with mirrors and a stage. Decor is colorful and fun with gender neutral restrooms and free condoms galore! Loving the cocktail menu with very affordable prices. Fun drinks are waiting for you while you dance with yourself in the mirror! Who doesn't love the sound of that?! I love the staff, the bartender/co-owner makes you feel welcomed and goes above to ask what you think of the space and how he can improve during this reopening. Good Judys just opened back up this April 2021 so be kind as she works through the kinks. Very happy to have this bar in my neighborhood of Northside! See you there!

It was not bad but wanted to sample the temperanillo. Sample from a box. Uh.... no. Took a sniff and little tadte of temperanillo. Yeah. Sweet box wine taste, not temperanillo or at least the taste I was familiar. I went with the Montepulciano. I got the bottom of the bottle with a fresh screw cap bottle. This glass did not taste like the sample. Like the pbr of wine. Just saying. I updated the review now based on manager response. My critique was originally based solely on wine taste so yeah I probably should have gave it a 2 star but now see the management clearly leaves something to be desired although I do appreciate the spell checker. You really got me on that one! Also, something being organic does not automatically make it better for you. Lead is also organic. While we are on the whole eco thing, glass bottles can also be recycled without all the ink on boxes as well as the plastics involved, as an aside. I will strive to not be ignorant and improve my palate by drinking more box wines. I thank the management for their response as it provided a negative image I was not previously aware.
