Milkman, you were so, so, so good to me! I've never been into the restaurant, though I have gotten…read moreDoorDash once before. It was as delicious as I wanted it to be! When my friend and I walked in, we were greeted by such a sweet staff who immediately welcomed us in, shared their thoughts on the menu (since we were first-timers), and suggested we leave a review (they were so lovely, so how could we not!) The entire restaurant feels like the diner Sam worked at in Cinderella Story from the early 2000s - very vintage, very retro, very 50s! It's what I imagine restaurants looking like when my grandparents went on dates when they were my age. I had gotten the tofu nugs via DoorDash, which were better IRL and the milkshake was scrumptious too! My friend got the Milkman Burger, fries, and a fruity pebbles shake. It was all great but let me tell ya...we had this meal almost two weeks ago and I'm STILL dreaming of those French fries. I have had so many iterations of fried potato before...shoestring, steak, wedges, sweet potato, those made from yuca, curly, dipped in ice cream, etc. and these are the best fries I've had in my life. If I could live off the fries, I would. They were that good. I already have plans to share this place with other friends of mine as it has officially worked its way into the rotation for me!

The staff was friendly and attentive, and while you'll need to find street parking, it wasn't a hassle.

The food is outstanding across the board--from the steaks to the cheese sticks--but the real star is their bread pudding. It's absolutely worth the trip from anywhere in the tri-state area. Parking is also easy and convenient, with a garage right across the street, as well as their own lot and additional street parking. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great meal and an even better experience.

We got the Breakfast tostada, Smoked brisket Benedict, Standard breakfast burger, nuggets and potato cakes, and a side of fruit and goetta. I will say sausage on its own is very harsh for me so I enjoyed the goetta. The tostada was on point, and really a remarkable way to use refried beans, as a spread. Everyone slopped up the Benedict, together. And that burger was gone in 4 minutes flat. Wow some of the best brunch food I've had in years. The decor was immaculate, love how they kept the original garage and its theme.

We are greeted upon a friendly worker, and our server was also friendly. The menu is very limited... That is the only reason I'm taking off a point. They had less than 10 options for food, which I was disappointed in because I often like a little more variety, especially when the menu doesn't really have the same common thing. Like there were just a bunch of random options. I got the I don't goetta chopped cheese, which was really good and I also tried a chicken tender, which was pretty good even though it was in the shape of a very small nugget not as a tender as advertised. They didn't even have the piña colada's even though it was on the menu. But maybe it was a blessing in disguise because I got some sort of blended coffee drink with Bailey's instead, which was delicious! Super cute place and I loved the vibe I would come again maybe on a fall night to be able to enjoy outside because we were originally placed outside, but then it started to pour! I'm not gonna be racing back here anytime soon, but I'm glad I tried it.

The food was definitely the highlight. I went with the Slaytar, which was tasty, though next time I might ask for a little extra tartar sauce on the side. My wife grabbed the Pearl Jam and really liked it, and my daughter went with the Bread Zeppelin, which was a hit with her as well. It's a super comfortable spot to grab a bite, and we'll definitely be adding this to our Cincinnati adjacent rotation. If you're in the area and looking for a solid meal, I'd highly recommend checking it out.
