This is a solid spot for patrons seeking a limited menu with a chill vibe. It is important to note…read morethey have a rotating, seasonal menu, which also means you cannot locate their present menu online nor can you rely on that to decide what you'll have when you're there. I speak from experience as the hanger steak my brother saw online and wanted (which made us pick this restaurant) was not available this particular evening. On to the better stuff: I really liked their welcoming vibe and relaxed atmosphere. Complimentary sourdough bread was immediately served as well as celebratory champagne for my little brother's birthday. We started with the hush puppies appetizer and the French onion dip, which came with a bag of Zappo's potato chips. For dinner, I ordered the four cheese pasta, which I was informed is made in-house and is leaving the menu very soon. My only complaint was the size of the wine pours. When I inquired, they stated the pour was 6 ounces. The kind surprise was a generous top off when they sensed my disappointment. Their kids' menu -which isn't printed - is a little limited. Kids can pick from grilled cheese, chicken skewers, and a hamburger. One kiddo had a hamburger and my son snacked on their shoestring fries. All other adults ordered burgers and everyone seemed to enjoy their dinner. One more complimentary surprise showed up near the end of dinner which was a miniature Keylime pie in celebration of my brother's bday. Back home, we have very few restaurants that offer so many complimentary items. That definitely sets this restaurant apart from others. Also, having a small menu means they likely give lots of attention to the entrees they serve. Definitely recommend City Pharmacy!

The focaccia is so good that they can get away with charging $3 for 2 slices of bread (after you…read moreget your free pair of course). This restaurant is exactly what Covington has been missing and I'm so glad it's here. The rotating menu is good, and there are always solid classics for picky eaters too. I will say that the service can be a bit slow, but that's generally well worth the delicious pasta and fair prices (cheaper than City Pharmacy, so that's a win!). For now, Bar Oscar is the premiere Italian/pasta restaurant in Covington, and my heart and stomach love it, so I'm giving it a 5 star, but in truth it probably is closer to a 4.

The interior is cute and they have a nice outdoor patio as well. We tried the lady whistle down, blood orange margarita, and the vodka gimlet. I love a vodka gimlet and this one was perfectly balanced, probably one of my favorite drinks of the trip. We munched on the cheese platter and marinated olives and then the tiramisu for dessert. Everything was really good, service got a bit slow towards the end of the night but overall a great first meal in Covington.

Of course, the food was not hot but it was warm. I don't understand the grits with the main course. It should have been dirty rice or if you are doing grits, pair it with shrimp or fish. I truly think price played a factor. This is my second event with them and I plan to do more.

Service was top notch from greeting of the host to the bartenders who served us. Our bartender made me THE best espresso martini I ever had. We will definitely return and SOON!

I really was not expecting much but it's not too bad! ***LOCATION*** Plenty of parking all around and right down the street from the square! ***ATMOSPHERE*** Honestly the inside looks nice. They've got the lighting, a huge bar, a stage for karaoke and plenty of tables and a patio as well! There were people singing karaoke with was fun. The only thing was that it wasn't super crowded. I don't think too many people go out in Covington and it was definitely full of older people too. Has a lot of potentiel though. If more people came here it would actually be a cool spot to go. The music was good! ***STAFF*** The staff were nice! ***PRICE*** They had super cheap beer. I think I paid literally 2$. It wasn't the best quality but they had better options too! ***CONCLUSION*** I hope more people go out here because there is so much potential. The vibe is there, there just aren't enough people!

The onion rings are top tier, the fried pickles are delicious, and the wings are great. The bar staff were B and Shanna. B was the best; tentative, kind and funny. She checked on us often as newbies. Shanna is the only reason this review didn't get 5 stars. She was cold, evasive and made it seem like she was bothered by us asking questions. It was our first time there. Once she was annoyed having to take our drink order, she never said another word to us. Asking her to change the TV felt like pulling teeth. Then B came in and saved the day. The food, karaoke and B made this an good time on a Friday night. Because of the atmosphere, the indoor smoking, and the chance of dealing with Shanna again, I'd pass on going in and order take out next time.
