Erik RowleyNovember 7, 2016The best restaurant in Cincy and the premier place to dine in the OTR district! The chicken and waffles are phenomenal. The sweetness of the waffle and slight spice of the chicken are a perfect pair!
Anna HiderJuly 3, 2016The chicken and waffles are, of course, great (don't be scared to mix the hot sauce and syrup) but they also make good sandwiches with the waffles too- I got the brunch burger and it was amazing. I always get the chicken and waffles but wanted to try something new. Fantastic burger with the waffle and fried egg. You can't go wrong!

Leah WarnerMay 2, 2017Chai Tea Latte is beyond heavenly. You can't go wrong with brunch here! Everything is delicious.
Serious EatsSeptember 4, 2013The Vine Street bistro location offers indoor and outdoor seating, a full French-American menu and long list of in-house pastries made in an open kitchen, surrounding a communal table.
Maria DJune 1, 2014The chicken and waffles is dish is very good! The chicken especially is seasoned well and has a nice crunch with just enough heat! I'm just not a fan of their waffles! You can get the waffles in Cbus!
Kelsey SparksJune 8, 2017Went for the first time and loved the chicken and waffle. It will probably be my go-to for many visits to come. My husband got the McWaffle and really liked it too. Great food and service!
Joe TaulbeeJanuary 5, 2015Always crowded, but the food is very good. Your best bet is to belly up to the bar or you can have the host text you when your table is ready which is nice b/c you can explore OTR while you wait
Rory ParnessJuly 4, 2015Chicken, waffles and add bacon FTW! Get an order of fries too because, well, they're that good.
Ryee DMarch 18, 2014Upon entry I felt very welcome. The food, so simple but fresh and tasty. I was served homemade fries with garlic mayo. My server Megan also brought chipotle mayo to try. Two thumbs up! xo- jiresellJanuary 25, 2015True to it's name, a great Belgian beer selection. Try the brunch burger. Hamburger sandwiched between their famous waffles!
Julio TJune 16, 2013You cant go wrong with the waffle and chicken! Make sure to put hot sauce on the chicken for somw kick.
Jannis B.August 13, 2014First time here and had the 'Nati'. It was delicious! Just wish the crepe itself was a bit smaller or more ingredients stuffed in. Son had the smore waffles and they looked fabulous!
RulaMarch 12, 2016Amazing waffles - different from the usual, they're dense and sweet. Also go for the mussels & frites (they can make the frites vegan!)
Daniel MaxsonMay 12, 2016Great place for breakfast! The Mcwaffle really hit the spot and the gluten free crepes were great! Portion sizes are kind of small though.- Said it last time, I'll say it again. Chicken and Waffles hands down. I tried the mussels as well and they are great as well. Very cheesey!
Brandon HiteJuly 5, 2012Order the Ginger Crepe. Waitress named Brenna knows what it is (purple hair, nose piercing). Otherwise, ask for the 'Nati Crepe but substitute the goetta with chicken with hot sauce & maple syrup.
Rodrigo BeisteguiSeptember 29, 2014The brunch burger is excellent. Great place for lunch, if you are a party of 2 try to get the bar, much faster and excellent attention!
Zach ZimblerApril 26, 2019What we ate: Red velvet waffle & breakfast burger. Both were awesome, but I really wanted to try the chicken and waffles
The original Cincinnati bistro location. Mussels. Crepes. Chicken and waffle. Belgian beers. Burger.
Sam JohnsonSeptember 5, 2016The chicken and waffle is delicious! Get extra hot sauce if you're in to Frank's.
DeMea DardenJanuary 13, 2019The crepes take up the whole plate and are absolutely amazing! I had the Italian and it was delicious.
Taylor EApril 27, 2015Sit at the little bar to the left to skip waiting for a table (especially when it's an hour for brunch)
David BilliterAugust 10, 2014My favorite place for a Sunday Brunch! Chicken and Waffles are unbelievable and the Bloody Marys aren't half bad either!
Andrew MillisMarch 29, 2014Best chicken and waffles I've ever had. The heat of the chicken blends perfectly with the sweetness of syrup. Heaven.
Matthew RisherNovember 23, 2013They do NOT use frozen waffles. Please ignore uninformed tips. They make the waffles fresh in house, once per week, and refrigerate them to keep them fresh.
Lori LaBeauJuly 12, 2015Even if you have a long wait, STAY! Amazing food, loved the burger and had smashed potatoes. Yummy!
Can't go wrong with the Waffle and Chicken, but they also have one of the best burgers in town.- Chicken and waffles all the way. Tasted the hamburger and it was awesome as well!
Ross ShannonAugust 21, 2016Fried chicken, maple syrup, waffles and hot sauce sounded crazy to me, but it was incredibly good.
Aly GJune 2, 2013Out of towners, check out goetta hash. Grain infused sausage, eggs, frites, and fajita-style peppers. Perfect combination.
Kyle KubichekSeptember 2, 2023Chicken and waffle is a must get!! Some of the best fried chicken ever
Fernando MelendezDecember 30, 2016Had the "Biscuit" waffles and gravy and practically licked the plate clean.- Don't forget to save room for dessert. S'more waffle. Macaroons. All good.
Zach WeberDecember 14, 2013Very attractive little restaurant in over the Rhine. Waffle & chicken is awesome!!!
Carol Ann SchwartzJanuary 11, 2014Eggs and Waffle - skip the bacon - Amazing! Steve was a great waiter
Scott GellmanOctober 9, 2014The waffle and chicken is perfect. Spicy, salty, sweet, crunchy and soft.
Nati Crepe was pretty bland, but the Banana and Nutella Crepe as well as the Chicken and Waffles were pretty damn delicious
