    Breakfast and double deckers too!
    Margie N.

    Samantha was our server and she was on it! I ordered corned beef hash and she assured me it was real and not out of a can. The food took a little while to come out but Samantha kept my coffee full and hot! When the food arrived it was delicious! The potatoes were real and cooked with onions. Then grilled corned beef on top of that . My husband had chicken fried steak and eggs. Served with sausage gravy, it was very tasty! The place was packed but not too noisy. I found my new favorite breakfast spot! It is in the old Red Squirrel, and yes, they still have double deckers. Thanks, Samantha, for your excellent service and constant smile. You put the cherry on top. We will be back!

    2nd time here and it will be a staple for every trip to the area. Basic diner food - which is exactly what I want. Eggs, goetta, sausage, hash browns, toast, and hot coffee. And say hello to Missy who might be the friendliest waitress in Cincy.

    Ordered the Homestyle Hash which is their skillet. Asked for eggs over easy- they were perfect. Really good service, toast made fresh per order, and decent coffee. Only things that was a negative for me was the precooked bacon of about 15 lbs. I usually order bacon but passed on it today.

    I've had breakfast/brunch several times at this cozy homey eatery, going all the way back to 2015. We used to live in the vicinity and it's not far from the church I attend. Food is very good. You get what you order and they are not averse to substitutions. Service is friendly. Seating is comfortable. The diner holds a good number of people, and be prepared for it to be packed full on a Saturday or Sunday. Those are not the times to go if you're in a rush, obviously. Prices are reasonable. Their take on corned beef hash is totally different from what you'd expect to get. It's more like shredded corned beef mixed up with home fries. You may or may not care for that; I don't like it. As mentioned the parking lot, which serves several storefronts, is difficult, although there are a handful of spaces actually reserved for Lisa's Kitchen so you may get lucky. I believe you can park in neighboring lots. This is my choice over a soulless chain restaurant, any day. If you're hungry for lunch or breakfast in Fairfield, get in here.

    Let me share my experience at Lisa's Kitchen. I was in the area for a three-day conference and decided to check out brunch options on Yelp. Lisa's Kitchen, just 5 minutes from my hotel, caught my eye. Most of their customers are seniors, which speaks volumes about the service. The staff, from the lady at the register to my waitress, were older but incredibly kind, attentive, and respectful. The atmosphere inside felt cozy and family-friendly, more like a homely diner than a typical restaurant. It was quiet, and everyone seemed to be there to enjoy a good meal. Now, onto the food. I ordered the regular breakfast burrito with bacon and sausage, served with hash browns. It was delicious! What sets it apart? Probably the passion and dedication of the people behind it, who clearly love what they do. Special shoutout to Kelly for her outstanding hospitality. She made sure I had everything I needed, just like being at my favorite aunt's house. The food arrived promptly, taking only 5-8 minutes from order to table. I highly recommend this place, and if I ever find myself back in Cincinnati, I'll definitely be returning to Lisa's Kitchen. Oh by the way I spent less than $15 on the food.

    Food was fresh and hot. I had the 1/2 lb cheeseburger and fries and my daughter had the french toast and we both cleaned our plates.

    33 miles away so we will probably not be back but I thought the food was great. Biscuits and gravy,…read moreomelet with jalapeno and chorizo that came with fried potatoes and toast. Most I brought home. My husband talked about the peach french toast but ended up getting the cinnamon french toast with a side of grits. He said the french toast was really sweet. Service was good but the only table available for 2 was in the window which I was sweating before we left....it was a hot day out. They could use some blinds. The place is average size and the menu as well. If you are in the area I do suggest eating there, and if you have not tried it, you should. I dont think this is a franchise and is family owned so show them some business. Parking is out front on the street unless you can find a spot behind the building.

    The name of the restaurant caught my eye a few days ago driving past, so when my husbae suggested…read morebreakfast, I decided to try here. Parking is a little tricky because there is limited parking out front and you have to really go around the block to park in back and walk back around. You don't really have an option to park on the side streets because one doesn't have close street parking and the other is a one way. When we first arrived it took us a few minutes to be seated as someone was placing a to go order and there was no one else there to seat us. Once we were seated and ordered, it took less than 10 minutes for our food to arrive. I know it's called French Toast Heaven, but the salmon croquettes were calling my name. Overall, we enjoyed our meals and had a pleasant experience. That said, given the price point, I expected the food to feel a bit more elevated. I'm excited to see how the space evolves, based on photos of their West Chester location, it looks like they've done a wonderful job creating an inviting atmosphere, and I can't wait to see how they bring that same touch to this location. We'll have to come back and try some of the famous French toast on our next visit.

    Came here during burger week and I'm so glad I did!…read more The burger for the week was so good. One of the best burgers I've had in a long time. The restaurant was busy and on an hour wait but I ended up sitting at the bar and when with them brining busy the food came out quick and made right. I loved the espresso martini and I can't wait to come back and try more of their menu.

    We went for brunch with family and it just wasn't great. Upon walking in- you could smell a faint…read morescent of sewage- which we found later that the smell was coming from the women's bathroom. There was no water issue- so maybe sewer gas? Not a great first impression. I would like to say the servers were wonderful. If I could rate them alone it would be 5 stars- they were the majority of the 3 we gave for this visit. The food itself- no one was very impressed with- it was all just ok. The only stand out was the Southern chicken and waffles. Nice heat and both were crispy. Everything else was just bland- (between us we had eggs Benedict, breakfast burger, denver omelettes, French toast, southern chicken and waffles). The Nashville Mary had some appetizers attached- those were good- the drink itself wasn't. For 7 of us, the bill was $200. We have heard good things about the All-Day menu so we may go back to try that- the brunch for us is a no- there are better options in the area like Coopers Hawk, Cheesecake Factory, Toast & Berry, Cozy's etc
