Stopped in last minute (out of town visitors). There was a wait at 1pm on a Tuesday. Parking was very limited. We did manage to snag a spot in back of the lot. We waited at the bar for 15-20min til an outdoor table was available. The view is beautiful. The service was lacking a bit. Had to ask for drink refills 3x. The food was ok. Crab cakes were tasty. Beer salad was kind of bland. Boyfriend ordered the fig pizza. It was tasty & latge enough to share (although he ate the entire thing by himself ).
I went here last minute and it was about an hour wait before seated. The hostess were friendly and welcoming as we checking in. As we waited, we sat at the bar and service was prompt even tho they were busy. The place is spacious, clean; the outdoor view is beautiful. Definitely will be back just for the view. The food isn't as good as I expected, but it might just be because it was too busy. Totally would give another try to be fair.
We came here to send off our friend moving to CA, no better way to say farewell than by enjoying a beautiful view of our city. Our service was great, cocktails were on point, and the food was awesome. The tots, pretzel, and grippo Mac & cheese were the stars. I wish there was more grippos crust on it! Would definitely recommend coming here with a group or on a date. Will be back!
Went here for brunch! Reasonably priced with amazing views of Cincy! Parking is kind of a hassle so be prepared to drive around for a bit if it's a busy weekend! Definitely want to come back for dinner.
Here for the view ! And wow did it deliver. Sitting on the patio is perfection. We had a decent meal but enjoyed the view the most. Service was fast and friendly. They offer a great menu with a lot of variety.
(Kari's Rating 8.5/10) TLDR -Great for Groups -Nice outdoor patio -Beautiful View Came with a large group of 10 on a Sunday around noon, we waited about 30 mins and then got seated a very long table on their outdoor patio. Surprisingly, everyone got a different meal and it was pretty good. The goetta was interesting as it was the first time I've had it before. The sweet potato fries are surprisingly crispy and went really well paired with the apple butter. As I'm not from this area, I probably wouldn't be coming back, but I might stop by with a group if I was here.
I've been to the Incline Public House a few times. First, let's start with the good. The view of the city as you sit outside on the balcony is beautiful. You can wait in a small little area outside overlooking the city. The view can't be beat! 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. The decore is simple and the bathrooms are clean. 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.
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.
We stopped here late on a Thursday afternoon. The views are spectacular. Cute bar scene with a patio with seating for a great view of Downtown Cincinnati. The service was excellent. My wife had the Chicken Chili which used a red chili sauce and was very good. I had the Black and Blue Salad which had an interesting horseradish vinaigrette, I've had better salads. We split the Onion Rings which were plentiful. I almost gave this 5 stars so I would rate this 4.5 if that was an option. The bar had multiple local craft beers. I liked the experience enough to go back, when back in town.
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.
A great place for Sunday brunch! The view of the skyline was so nice. Their patio is hard to beat in the summer. 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!
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!

We came to the incline house for the Labor Day celebration. I was impressed on the amount of food and the quality that was given to this event. The appetizers were great along with the salad and cheese and crackers, not to forget the sliders and large pretzels with cheese dip. The entree's were phenomenal! The grilled salmon and shrimp were great and the braised short ribs were out of this world! It was also accompanied by green beans and roasted potatoes with side pasta and stuffed portobello mushrooms. The desserts did not fall short as they had an assortment of cheesecakes, tiramisu, ice cream, and some apple sticky cake, which was delicious. The waiters and waitresses were very quick to aid any drinks that you wanted and quickly took away any plates that were used. but let's not forget the best part, the fireworks display was beautiful, and the view was outstanding from the incline house. Thanks again I'm sure we will be there next year!! Stacy read more

We had a great time before Friday Night Lights over at The Pit. Good times were had before kickoff at the Incline Public House After taking in some amazing views of Cincy, this was the perfect spot to grab some drinks and enjoy some seriously good food. We tried the fish and chips, blackened Mahi tacos, Incline cheesesteak, and the House burger which everything hit the spot Overall things were just what we wanted. Food was quick to the table and had a relaxed vibe with one of the best views of the city. Shoutout to Matt for taking good care of us! Definitely a place worth checking out if you're in Cincy. We'll be back! read more

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! read more

This restaurant was truly the highlight of my trip to Cincinnati food wise. The atmosphere was perfect and the view was amazing!! 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! read more
Food is ALWAYS good. I get something different each time I go and I'm never disappointed. Staff is always very accommodating as well. We were seated outside and the bees would not leave us alone. They let us move inside with no problem. View from the patio is still unmatched! read more

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! read more
My sister and our 2 friends stopped in here for lunch on Monday as a nice halfway point on our route back from our girls trip. A couple of us ordered beers, but I ordered a hot tea because I currently have a sore throat. All hit the spot! Lunch came out quick and was tasty- all of us had different variations of avocado/guacamole with our meal, so there was an unspoken theme lol We sat on the covered patio and had a great view of the river. It was a little gloomy since it is February, but still great to lift our winter spirits. I'm sure it's gorgeous during the warmer months. I would definitely stop back in here again during a Cincy trip and try another item off the menu. Hopefully I won't be feeling sick then and can try a beer or cocktail! read more

We were visiting family and arriving around dinner time so they thought they'd bring us here. It's a place they enjoy and I can see why. Parking may be a bit of a hassle but this place was really hopping. Although busy it didn't take too long to get a nice seat outside. Service was friendly and prompt. Good beer selection but I wish I had been hungrier. A lot of the food looked really good but I didn't want to waste food so went with the poutine (which was tasty). Everyone was really satisfied. We had a birthday among us and she has wanted to try the chocolate cake so I bought a slice to go. It was absolutely massive and so rich and delicious. This would definitely be a good place to stop in for a pint and a bite. read more

We arrived at 1:30 pm on a Friday. It was more active than I expected. We joined the waiting list and were seated outside within 5 minutes. Our table of three placed our drinks and food. The food arrived within 10 minutes. However, the drinks did not come out for at least 30 minutes. Our server said that there were delays at the bar, and we did our best to be understanding. Unfortunately, one member of our party ended up having to leave before the drinks arrived. A little after 2 pm, the drinks came out, and they were tasty. We did not order any additional drinks due to fear of more delays. Beautiful spot, but they need faster hands. read more

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…
