    We had a great time there. It was so good we are going back tonight. The atmosphere was great, music was great, service was great and the food was the best part. If you live in cincinnati or if you're visiting, YOU MUST GO!

    Catfish shrimp and grits

    Food was amazing and full of flavor. Catfish shrimp and grits is definitely the best in the city.

    Jalapeño grits topped with beef ox tails, onion, and green peppers.

    The vibe in this place is amazing! The service is stellar. The food exceeds expectations. The grits are phenomenal. The Nola bowl is hibachi level, and the wings are beyond flavorful and fried to perfection. I love the music played there. Our server was attentive and very professional.

    Bargos will always be one of my Top recommendations when I think about good food and a good drink…read more This was not my first time here but this was my first time trying the Bargos burger and I would highly recommend getting that burger so good and bursting with flavor. I always get the garlic Parmesan wings and a Purple rain drink. Will be back soon

    I am not so happy with my experience today and I was definitely looking forward to coming here…read more I ordered 8 traditional wings, and 8 bonus with two different sauces. The first time the order came out the sauce for the boneless wings was on the traditional wings and vice versa. Then after 15-20 mins the order came out wrong again so I had to send my food back. There was no I'm sorry your order was made wrong/ keep these while we work on your order or compensation for the fact it took 2 times for my order to get sent back to come out correctly the 3rd time. Each time the bartender kept asking me (with an attitude) what was made verse what should have been made. I don't know anymore shoot all I'm trying to figure out is why I don't have 8 Caribbean jerk wings in my face right now. When I first ordered the food it was only 3 other people there with me so I'm not sure why the order kept being messed up and why it took so long to get the food. After the 2nd send back it was maybe a total of 10 people there and I seen a few people send food back to the kitchen. Unfortunately I think I will have to take another break from visiting this restaurant.

    This was originally a "speakeasy" but has since gotten HUGE signage directing you to it, so really…read moredoesn't qualify anymore. You can either walk through the gun center or enter at the rear / side of the building. Either way it is a bit of a walk so could be a concern for anyone with mobility issues. I was surprised that there were not any disabled parking spots close to the side entrance. It's a large lounge, upscale and beautifully decorated though does not have an intimate feel. Majority of seating is tables vs. bar. The cocktail menu is unique and fun, with the different drinks named after famous and infamous gunslingers. I had a Baby Face Nelson which was attractive and delicious. At first I though it was a little weak but towards the end it hit with a bang (see what I did there). I also took advantage of the ladies night menu and got a $5 cucumber mint G&T. The cocktail pricing is what you'd expect, ranging from $12 to $16. The wine list is not extensive and I would not describe this as a wine bar. But, I would come here seeking a fancy cocktail anyway. No food served, but door dash menus are available and there is also a limited menu for direct delivery from the Indian restaurant across the road. The outdoor patio looks nice. We were there on the earlier side, around 5 PM on a weekday. Service was pretty attentive with only one waitress handling the tables. I think if they found a way to serve some simple appetizers and put in a railing along the walkway from the parking lot to the door (thinking of my husband here) I'd give it five stars. They have a weird rule in that they insist on scanning your ID, regardless of age, up until 7 PM any day - this is so that no one who orders a drink can go next door and shoot (where they also scan IDs). The shooting range closes at 7 PM. So shoot first, drink later.

    A relaxing at Tommie's. Live music, great cocktails and good service. Perfect combination. Also…read morenoticed the new and lower prices on some of their specialty cocktails.

    I used to love DJs prior to covid. It's an older spot (40+) but large enough to have good seating,…read moregood music and chill. I went last night, a Saturday night, and it was super slow. It was R&B night but the music was kinda slow and dragging. I love R&B but he played sad love songs lol he coulda threw some upbeat songs or hussles in the mix. I ordered wings and loaded fries, which were just ok. Everyone says they have the best wings, but they were subpar, I didn't care for the barbecue sauce. Also, they could clean and fix up the women's bathroom a little. The one thing I love abt DJs is the staff tho! They are always friendly and welcoming. If they fix the other things they will be my spot again!

A good size bar, big dancefloor and DJ area, pool tables, tvs and a good menu. Now if you are hungry, great! the food is good, especially the chicken wings. My favorite are the lemon pepper. However, they must be going out to find and kill the chickens themselves because it takes FOREVER and a day to get your order of no less than 6 wings. CRAZY! When you finally get them though you wont be disappointed. My advice is to order all of your food at one time when you first arrive, go dance, mingle and drink and you wont think about it to much :)

    This is a nice little restaurant/bar that sits inside of the Springdale 18 movie theater. I have…read moreeaten here is the past, like, many many years ago (over 7 years) and I did not like the food. However, a handful of months ago, I got the chance to try it again, and I'm pretty impressed! I came here to see the new Halloween movie with my mom last October/early November. She comes here a lot to get a drink and eat something before seeing movies with her husband, so she was happy to have me try some things here that she likes before our movie started. We sat at the bar because we were just looking to eat quickly and have a drink. I ordered the hot spinach artichoke dip and a Moscow mule. She ordered a spinach flatbread and a Moscow mule as well. I feel like I do really need to stress how wonderful their mule is, it is amazing. It just tastes so great and has a great alcohol to rest-of-drink ratio. I've had mules at other, supposedly better restaurants, and those are all nothing compared to Chatter's Moscow mule. The bar tender was very friendly and he explained to us how they make the mule and how it stands out from other places, and I believe he said it was the difference between fresh lime juice and house-made sugar syrup in theirs compared to other places that just use bottled stuff or some other sort of sugar, I'm not sure, but the mule is great! I enjoyed the food as well. The spinach artichoke dip was very tasty, and I tried my mom's flatbread as well and it was also good. They let me take a second mule to go into the movie, and I just had a great, buzzy time watching some good ol' Michael Myers. Try the Moscow mule, you won't regret it.

I liked how they have different sauces that you can put on them. It is very convenient and a nice alternative to the usual cinema fare.

I read here on Yelp that the fish and chips was good. Well I will agree to this. I really liked the fish and chips. I was told the Rubin is good as well. I may have to come back and try it as I love a good Rubin. I also got the bread pudding. It was unique, I love making bread pudding myself so always like trying others. This version, it is a large piece of bread that is kind of like a huge piece of French toast. Now don't get me wrong it is very good in its own way and yes I would order it again, to bad they didn't bake in some chocolate chips or health bar chunks in the bread. The place is very clean and reminds me of a British pub, I was told it use to be the Cock and Bull, so that does sound like the interior would fit that name. The staff were very helpful and polite. I read a couple reviews stating the service was slow. I always love hearing that. I spent time through Europe and love the relaxed slow life and the service was the same. People just need to stop being in a hurry. I would recommend this location for some good fish and chips as well as unique bread pudding.
