Moonrise Doughnuts opens at night -- hence the name -- and sells its delicious doughnuts until they sell out. On the night I visited, they only had the special of blueberry doughnuts and orange donut holes left. I can't wait to try more of their sweet treats, but these were more than enough to satisfy a craving for morning pastries at night. These were also delicious the next morning, so if you want doughnuts for the morning, cross that to-do list off your list and pick these up the night before. I will be back on a future trip to see my family in Northern Kentucky. A new tradition? I hope so!

They were so good and I will visit again when they're not about to close to ask their name! As an added bonus, the young man working at the cash register was so nice!

Unfortunately this time we had some issues. We ordered a large hashbrown which Dunkin's version was delicious and honestly was this time as well. The problem was there was barely any hashbrowns in there which made me very sad. Also my wife got a big Sourdough Bacon sandwich which came with a very tiny amount of bacon. Very disappointing.

I am currently sipping on an enormous iced latte (no flavors for me) and it is perfection. Extremely smooth espresso and good balance of the oat milk I ordered. The inside is bright and cheery with small goods from local vendors. There are tables and chairs but no comfy couches/cushy chairs, if that matters to you for your coffee hangout experience. There are bagels, scones, and a few other pastries to accompany their expansive drink menu. Yes, they seem to specialize in their really unique flavor combos for lattes, but they also have the coffee basics and teas. The digital menu board scrolled through the menu a bit too fast for us to see, so we had to ask the lovely owner for advice. She has the specialty drink menu printed but I wish there were either an online menu to view via QR code or full printed menu at the shop. Luckily, she was extremely patient and helpful. Everyone who popped into the shop was greeted so warmly, many clearly regulars. I think this speaks volumes about the quality of both a product AND the people who serve you. We would gladly come back when in the area.

We…read morefrequent another pasta restaurant in town and wanted to try something new that also had several Italian classics to choose from. It was all delicious, service was wonderful, vibes were beautiful, and I felt the food came at a good value for what we ordered. Mainstrasse in Covington is an experience and Mama's is part of that! We sat outside on the patio to take it all in- highly recommend in nice weather. The building itself is beautiful and both the inside and outside feature artsy details in the decor that I really appreciated. My favorite was the mismatched plates, which were darling and cozy! Our waitstaff was quick and friendly, allowing us to order all at once and bringing things out with great timing- quickly, but not until we finished a course so we weren't rushed. We appreciated getting in and out relatively quick as we had a sitter at home. We decided to go a little all out and try a lot of items together. First, the focaccia and ricotta was enjoyable but not my favorite bread starter I've had. It hit the spot but I wasn't raving about it like another one of my favorite whipped ricotta starters across town. The arancini, however, was fantastic- probably our favorite thing we ate. Hot, crispy, and paired with a delicious spicy marinara that was super standout and flavorful. Next we got the stonefruit panzanella, which was beautiful and really yummy. The burrata was delicious in particular and while the cherries and peaches weren't the best I've had all season, they worked well together in this dish. For our entrees, we split both the chicken parmesan and the limone pasta. The chicken parmesan was huge, we both had a large piece even after it was split. The pasta had that delicious marinara from earlier and we really enjoyed it, which is saying a lot for a simple marinara spaghetti. The chicken was very thin and crispy. I liked the limone even better- it was very lemon forward which can be hard to achieve in a creamy sauce. We only wished we tried more shapes of pasta because it's made in house and the spaghetti was the perfect level of al dente in our opinions. We were super full, but ordered the cookie platter to finish the meal. We split a couple of the 6 cookies that came in 3 varieties, but took the rest home! The chewy almond/amaretto cookie was our favorite and really unique. My husband also had an old fashioned and commented that he liked it a lot. I would have expected this much food to come out to much more than it did- $100! I feel that is a great value for a special occasion considering we were stuffed and tried a ton of menu items. Overall, this was such an indulgent and fun experience and I'd highly recommend Mama's to anyone who is looking for a yummy Italian experience with comfort food classics in a fun, cozy Covington setting.

One look at his IG and you won't be able to deny his creative talent. Sadly, Covid-19 times have really hurt his business in terms of wedding and birthday cakes. Typical for such a creative genius, he's designed weekly boxes for pick up at his home licensed bakery in Mason. How the boxes work: He puts out a menu of the theme he's chosen for the week. Everyone is given a time to email him requesting a box (this is usually around 10am). You send your email exactly at that time and hope you get on the list. If you made it, you quickly get a confirmation email with all the details for pick up times/location and how to pay. Pick up is typically a Saturday or Sunday from 10a-1p. Some of my favorites include: strawberry pizza pockets, cinnamon toaster strudel, prosciutto and brie pastry... he's so creative! I've seen donut boxes, cookie boxes, 90s boxes, Friends box, pastry pocket boxes... he's basically limitless.
