It is relaxed and informal, for sure. Famous for their waffles, I had to have one! I opted for the fried chicken and waffle and was not disappointed! It may look a little small, but it was filling and flavorful. The drink menu wasn't overly long or complicated, but there were several great options. Our server was top notch! She handled our table of 8 (no waiting at dinner, BTW) with ease!

Not going to lie. Everything on the menu looked extremely delicious and extremely creative so it was hard to make a choice here. Garden Salad - Added some Grilled Chicken to the salad and it was actually quite a good one. Ingredients were all fresh and went really well together. Didn't even need to add much dressing to it. Eckerlin goetta - We ordered this on the side because its one of the must try items in Cincinnati. Quite a unique flavor and texture, but actually something I would recommend trying. The Fried Chicken went believeably well with that Waffle. No wonder it's one of the popular dishes! The biggest highlight for me was that waffle. I don't know what it was with that waffle but it was a different type of Belgian waffle which was dense and cakey with a little bit of sugary crust outside and it was so so so beautiful. I noticed that they sell some waffles to go as well and little gift bags and that ready would be a nice thing to take for home or even to give someone. Could not recommend this food more! Only reason I'm taking off a point here is the service was extremely slow. We had to call them a couple times to add something on and had to actually follow up and ask where it was. Same thing with asking for an extra waffle where they just took so long even though it was quite a simple thing to bring out.

The only thing was it was hard to find the place after parking in the building. If possible, could signs be placed in the elevators? I almost decided to leave cuz it took me too long to find the place. All in all, I'd try it again but at another location with free parking. I ended up paying $7 for parking today

The loud fan and busted wall unit circulating warm air did not set the tone for a relaxing brunch vibes. The water carafes were visibly stained and dirty, not refreshing. The coffee was hot, that's about the only redeeming quality. The chicken and waffles was supposed to be a favorite. The chicken was fine but the syrup and hot sauce were basic. The waffle was undercooked and had about as much flavor as a free Hampton Inn waffle. Actually, the Hampton Inn is much better. All in all, for the price this place is "meh" on a scale of 1-10. Not worth the cost on the bill. * The service staff was super nice.

I visited twice this weekend, and both times, the staff accommodated my weird asks!

Perfect portion and I swooned! All my beverages were fresh and tasty, but my favorite snack of the trip was their chips And guacamole. I took the extra chips (made fresh) and they were still crispy the next day. MAGIC!

Nothing like a restaurant that makes good food and drinks. Cedar was no exception as they executed…read moreboth. Ivy was the server who provided some great recommendations. The Goetta is a regional dish popular to the area comprised of sausage and potato fried like a smash burger. It was packed full of flavor and was nice and crispy. A must get was the biscuit and gravy. Unlike the southern style which is usually thick and creamy, this has amazing seasoning, plenty of the sausage crumble, and rich texture. The biscuit underneath was soft and savory and paired very well in this dish. The filet and eggs were perfectly cooked and had good flavor. There were a lot of diced potatoes on the plate to enjoy which was also well seasoned and crispy. Lastly the big easy omelette was very good. I do like the fact it was plated on top of a piece of toast. The biscuit and gravy along with the omelette gave a very strong New Orleans feeling. The cocktails also hit their mark. Local distillery Riff was the maker of the bourbon for the mule. I'm not sure of their lineup but it compared to Bulleit Bourbon. Very stable in the cocktail without being overpowering. The hard truth was a coffee with a punch and a great way to start a vacation morning. The restaurant was deceptively large from its outward appearance. There is lots of seating available and the tables moved swiftly. The large garage style doors allowed for full fresh air circulation and opens the brightness from the natural lighting. Being a corner location they were able to maximize on the opened interior dining experience. Overall 4.7 out of 5

The first drink I tried here was the River Much Live, and today I decided to switch it up. They describe the White Chocolate Truffle as **"a sweet cousin of the Mudslide,"** and honestly, I thought it was going to be SO sweet that I'd get a sugar rush and feel sick. BUT... not at all!! It was absolutely delicious! Not too sweet, creamy, and just the right amount of chocolatey goodness. I also got a **goetta sandwich**, and they were so nice to warm it up for me! So if you've been thinking about trying it, **I highly recommend it!** Everything was delicious, and I'm already looking forward to coming back again! Service was quick with the length of the line they had. The ambiance is friendly and very welcoming. A must try if here in Cincinnati
