I ordered the latte macchiato with vanilla, it was delicious and my friends also thought it was great; sharing is caring and all that jazz. We shared the crostone, it was more than enough for the three of us! Great flavors, we really enjoyed trying the various toppings. I ordered the the caprese panini as my entree. It is a very generous portion!! I ate less than half and am not upset about leftovers! The fries that came with it were spectacular! Nice and crispy, just the right amount of salty, a perfect compliment to the panini! My friends ordered pizzas, which were also generous portions for an individual or could easily be shared!

Luckily it wasn't too crowded as we got the only 'big' table - (seated 8 plus the window bar seats). Amongst the group we had the Ronnie, Avalanche, Sleeping Giant, Rocky Mountain and the Snow Bunny.

We ordered coffees, a matcha, two smoothies (one fruit-based, one milk-based), plus sandwiches and wraps. Everything was fresh, thoughtfully made, and you can tell everything is made with quality ingredients The staff was genuine and accommodating, and the cafe is a nice balance between cozy and polished. Inside, there's plenty of space to settle in and work remotely from too. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to try their wine selection. On a warm summer evening with a glass of rosé, at their patio -- it's a vibe! This pocket of Cincinnati also reminded me of some California coastal towns, which is nostalgic for me. All around, a great experience

Bow Tie Café in Mt. Adams is one of those rare spots that makes an ordinary day feel effortlessly…read morespecial. I tried the chicken bacon ranch wrap, which was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly satisfying, and paired it with their butter bourbon latte--both hot and iced. Each version was delicious in its own way: the hot felt cozy and indulgent, while the iced was smooth and refreshing. The option to add a shot of bourbon of your choice for a modest upcharge is such a fun, elevated touch that sets this café apart. The staff is also so kind! What really makes Bow Tie Café shine, though, is the atmosphere. It's easily the best place in Cincinnati to romanticize your life on a beautiful day--whether you're sipping something special, enjoying a casual meal, or just soaking in the charm of Mt. Adams. Even better, the prices are incredibly reasonable for the quality and experience. A true gem.

From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was fun, energetic, and welcoming. The whole place has a colorful, trendy vibe with music playing, people laughing, and a relaxed brunch crowd that made it feel exciting without being overwhelming. Even though it was busy for Mother's Day, it still felt organized and comfortable instead of chaotic. The food was honestly so good. Everything came out fresh, hot, and full of flavor, and the portions were huge. You can tell they put thought into the menu instead of serving just basic breakfast food. It felt like a fun twist on classic brunch favorites. Service was fast too, which we appreciated especially on such a busy holiday morning. The staff stayed friendly and upbeat the entire time, and you could tell they handled the rush really well. My husband and I were already excited for our day at the zoo, and breakfast here was the perfect start to it all. I'm currently pregnant, so finding a breakfast spot that actually sounds good and lives up to the hype feels extra important right now. We left full, happy, and already talking about coming back the next time we're in Cincinnati.

It was so substantial that I only made it through half. I enjoyed it with chorizo, but for a modest surcharge, they will make it with brisket! The Al Pastor Hash was the standout. It was beautifully balanced, full of bold, authentic flavors, and expertly prepared. One of my brunch-mates spends much of the year traveling through Latin America, and he was genuinely impressed. Excellent food, generous portions, and a memorable brunch experience. We'll definitely be back and look forward to trying more of the menu! Attentive service and a beautiful location in Downtown Cincinnati's quiet Pendleton neighborhood made the morning perfect.

Surprised I've not heard of this place before my brother suggested we try it (some Bengals player…read morerecommended it on a podcast I guess). This is a solid place! I didn't think I'd find something that could compete with Bakersfield but this does. It has unique flare without being over the top like some places can. Like pairing pickled veggies with my shrimp? Yes please! Ceviche was a little on the smaller side. Its flavor was there but price to size wasn't worth it to me. Recommend the grilled esquites as a side. I can't NOT get the charro beans because they were addicting. I could live on them in the winter. Tacos were so ed how you'd expect with homemade corn tortillas. Delicious, but I'd say Bakersfield pulls ahead just a touch with the tacos. Camerones Saadi's was delicious! I'd get it again, but still want to try some of their other mains. I did try dessert. Mind you I'm not huge on tres leches as it is so it might not be surprising that it wasn't my favorite. It was a tad on the drier side and textured (this was coconut tres leches so probably where the texture came from). I'd skip dessert the next go round maybe, unless they had some other fun seasonal things to try. Everyone enjoyed their cocktails as well! Especially the mezcal-based ones.

I warmed it in my air fryer for 6 minutes on 330 so it didn't overcook. The croissant was flaky and delicious, and the kimchi added good flavor without being spicy. I would have liked to see a little more mozzarella but overall it was tasty! SOBACHA CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIE 4 Also tasty, oversized cookie. Soft and chewy texture.

The sandwich contents looked AND tasted cheap and kinda artificial, and the presentation was messy and falling apart. NONE of us finished eating and had to pick at what was edible.

OVERALL I probably will never go here again and would never recommend it to anyone. There are easily WAY BETTER options in Cincinnati / downtown. (Coming from a local).
