    Views form the outdoor balcony
    Arianna A.

    I've been to the Incline Public House a few times. First, let's start with the good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The view of the city as you sit outside on the balcony is beautiful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can wait in a small little area outside overlooking the city.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The view can't be beat![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Now, the food. The crab cake platter was very delicious. It was chock full of crab meat and prepared perfectly. The service has been good. We were seated in a timely manner without having reservations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decore is simple and the bathrooms are clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Now the negatives. Let me start with the parking. There are very few parking spaces and the parking spaces that they do have are tiiiight. I've tried some other food, and I really haven't been impressed by it. The cocktails are OK. I'm not in a hurry to return but I'd come again for the views and to have cocktails and apps.

    Short rib grilled cheese was fiiirrrreeee !!
    Molly L.

    The short rib grilled cheese was absolutely amazing!!!..... The chicken club was a little lackluster and wasn't a big fan of the sweet potato fries as They were pretty dry and cold, but I would definitely return for the short rib grilled cheese for sure.

    A great place for Sunday brunch! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The view of the skyline was so nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their patio is hard to beat in the summer.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a lot of options to choose from and the prices are great. The portion sizes were big, I mean look at that breakfast burrito! Everything was great and the service was fast. If you have any out of towners this is the place to take them!

    Delicious as always. Chicken chili was excellent. Chicken quesadilla was delicious. Our server was very nice and helpful. Restaurant is busy which is good. Thanks for an awesome visit

    Kids cheese quesadilla!

    Whenever family and friends come to town, this is always one of my first recommendations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The views of the city are incredible[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], the service is consistently great, and the food never disappoints. You really can't go wrong--it's the perfect spot to enjoy a great meal while taking in one of the best views around!

    I had "linner" here on a Saturday with 5 other people at 3:30 and I was worried about not being seated quickly, since they don't let you make reservations, but we got a table right away! We all started with drinks and I sipped on the lemonchello spritz which was sooo refreshing. Then we got our main courses and I had the Cobb salad. I will say, later that night I had a VERY upset stomach and all signs pointed to that salad so..... My boyfriend's wagyu slider were also overcooked and that was disappointing. Other than those two downsides, I enjoyed our meal and the service was good.

    Chose this restaurant mainly for the views, there was a wait for outdoor seating and we had a bit of a time constraint so we sat indoors. We were at high tops which enabled us to look over the tables and out to the view so that was nice. The pretzel was definitely the highlight of the meal, although I did also enjoy my salad with shrimp. Mixed drink was ok. Server a bit harried but upbeat and helpful.

    My husband and I flew into Cincinnati airport and had to drive about an hour and half north. This restaurant showed up on the way and I saw it had nice views so we decided to give it a go. From looking at the menu, I was doubtful the food would be great as it looked like just another burger and pizza place. I even told my husband "we are going for the views not the food". Man was I wrong! Food is delicious! My husband ordered a burger and I got a pizza with gluten free crust and both dishes were excellent. Gluten free can be hit or miss but this restaurant nailed it! The view of course is stunning and we were lucky enough to be there during sunset. The service is attentive and friendly. I would highly recommend this place and have told our friends who live in the area they must go!

    Food was amazing, drinks were delightful, and the views were absolutely spectacular. Grippo's Mac n cheese for appetizer, pork chop and truffle potatoes with asparagus, my daughter had the house burger with truffle tots. Waiter made me a lovely non alcoholic drink with lime, agave & fizzy grapefruit soda, my daughter had a peach tea. The whole dinner experience was amazing. We loved it! Definitely recommend & we'll be back!

    Salted rim bloody and Cincy light draft as my chaser.

    Did t eat, so no review for food. Bartender made my bloody just as I requested. Place was packed, Of course there's a beautiful view with about 8 foursome tables and 3 tables for larger groups.. also inside seating.

    First time here. Easy drive from Covington hotel. Put our name in for outside seating and grabbed drinks at the bar and seats outside. Didn't wait long - even for a Saturday night. Matt was on us pretty quickly with a check on our drinks and to get us water. Just enjoyed the view for a while. Two small salads and split a bacon ranch pizza. All was delicious. Thanks Matt for a great dinner!

    The view from my table!

    This restaurant was truly the highlight of my trip to Cincinnati food wise. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was perfect and the view was amazing!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was everything I wanted - pretzel, the best sweet tea - even got a pitcher brought to me, and chicken & waffles!! I will go back once I'm in town again!! Service was great too!

    Chicken and waffles

    This is one of the best places I've had the pleasure of going to do while traveling. The view plus the quality of food. The service was quick based off the expected wait.

    Is there easy parking near by or restaurant parking lot?

    Yes, there is a good sized parking lot right beside/behind building

    Do they take reservations?

    We called ahead w a large group (10 ppl) and were accommodated for a Sunday brunch. Unsure if this is normal practice but they took care of us.

    What time does the kitchen close? How available is seating on a Friday night?

    On Fridays, the kitchen closes at 11pm. Incline is usually packed on any evening. I've gone at 5pm, and the wait was maybe 10 or so minutes. But the later you go after 5pm, the longer you wait. For example, if you arrive at 7pm, you may wait 60-90… 

    Do you have to be 21 to eat dinner there?

    No

I don't really have words to describe it. They only have one size pizza and, at first, I thought it was huge. However, the flavor was so amazing I kept wanting more. Hubs and I did a half and half pizza. His half was the Alms Park and my half was bacon and pineapple. I probably could have eaten a whole pizza by myself. The blend of cheeses and their sauce - so stinking good. We also got a house salad to split. Being that this was to go - they gave us the main salad in one container with their house made croutons in a separate container and their house made vinaigrette in a separate container - it keeps everything fresh and crisp! The croutons were so delicious and fresh! On top of that, the vinaigrette was amazing. We both fell in love with it. We walked in and ordered instead of placing online or calling. The service was AMAZING! We decided to wait in our car and they walked it out to us! They were amazingly friendly and wonderful. Their pizza isn't the cheapest pizza around but it was worth the money we spent. This won't be an every week visit, but definitely a new favorite. While this location is carry-out only, it was very welcoming. They also sell bottles of wine and had signs talking about them. It was a very neat little local place. I'd like to actually try their new location where we can eat in! Do yourself a favor and try this place.

Best GF/cauliflower pizza: lots of toppings to choose from (though somehow chicken isn't an option on DD) and again, from the mushrooms to the sauce, you can taste the difference. They make the sauces in house! According to my husband, best Chicken Parm he has had since moving here! You get a healthy portion. And...best cannoli in the area! Growing up in a predominantly Italian and Polish area, I have been lucky to have REALLY good Italian pastries...and their cannoli was reminiscent of those times. This has been the ONLY cannoli in the greater Cincy area that is worth consuming, IMO. All in all, we would dine in at Il Gusto constantly, if we lived closer. Glad they're on DoorDash though!

    We visited Bourbon House for Father's Day and intentionally arrived early before the rush. Although…read morethere was one large party, the staff seemed very discombobulated. We had 4 different servers checking on us, but never at efficient times. We wouldn't see anyone for 15 minutes and then they'd all check on us at once. There was a younger boy working that was walking around with longer hair and he kept ruffling his hair as he walked through the restaurant which was off-putting. The food was exceptional; we started with the meatballs which we devoured too fast for a picture. The supreme pizza was phenomenal and our group of four couldn't even finish the large. The food was 10/10, but definitely felt my experience was soured which is why I only gave 3 stars.

    We stopped in before a show at Southgate House. It was a Friday and we made reservations for 5:30…read more Reservations at this time were not needed; it was not crowded. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. They have outside seating, which could be nice in the right weather, though the area is just feet from the main drag. Our server was fine. I have no real recollection of them. We ordered a deep dish, looking to find a pizza as good as Zachary's in California. Bourbon House Pizza is not as good as Zachary's, but it is the best deep dish pizza we've tried in the Cincinnati area since we've been back in Cincinnati since 2021. We made our own pizza in an attempt to match our favorite - spinach and mushrooms. It was good. I enjoyed the sauce on top. Under the sauce, the cheese was very thick making the overall taste of the pizza very cheesy. We had a similarly cheese deep dish in Chicago. Our pizza at Bourbon House was better. I will say the crust is thick. I would have eaten the crust if there had only been two pieces per person. Since I was faced with potentially eating four pieces, I opted to skip the crust. One of our group asked if she could order from the kid's menu. The server had no issue with the request. Oddly enough, her meal was huge! We were all surprised it was a kid's meal. Our fourth ordered a small pizza. It looked like it had pineapple on it. I didn't ask how it was, but he ate every bite. It must have been a small and it was the perfect single serving size. Oh... we ordered a medium deep dish. It was eight pieces and was too much for two people. Because we were going to a show after dinner, we didn't box up the leftover two pieces. This size pizza would be great for four people to share. We will continue to look for great deep dish pizza, but we definitely found a good one at Bourbon House Pizza.

The gentleman who brought us our caprese salad, didn't directly say anything to us, but instead spoke only to the bartender (as he placed the salad in front of us) and told him not to place any more orders for caprese. He seemed inconvenienced by our order and more interested in his smoke break. We were surprised at the presentation and at the lack of flavor but assumed that the pizza would be amazing! based on what we had read and heard - but were incredibly disappointed. The pizza was flavorless and Incredibly greasy. Our impression is that this must be a great location for college students or those who have enjoyed their drinking experience and need some grease to sober them up and don't mind what they are eating. We were very let down in our experience and the lack of professionalism from the employee who seemed to think that since he was in the speakeasy, he didn't need to be professional.
