I have found my new favorite restaurant! I have eaten there 2 times in 3 days and I'm convinced that we have a hidden gem in the Mason area. It's hip and comfortable, with a twist on some of our favorite foods. There's a hint of the south with pimento cheese, fried chicken, grits, and fried bologna, but totally fresh and updated versions of these southern standards. Staff is knowledgeable, friendly and on their toes! Oh....and the rum punch...the only thing bad is it comes in a small glass!! It tastes like the best beach punch you ever had!! I will be a regular and hope to spread the word! Welcome to the neighborhood Clyborne!!
Love this place! There isn’t one thing on the menu I wouldn’t like. The wine is priced at a rate that makes it easy to enjoy a bottle a step above what you would normally be willing to spend at most restaurants. This is our new favorite place.
Amazing everything!! Food, drinks, service, atmosphere, everything!! Drinks: elderflower & pear is delicious. Very different than anything I have ever had and also very good!! I ordered multiple. I also had the Cold Brew Mocha which is fantastic. They brew their own cold brew for this drink!! The group I went with also had various types of wine and old fashions... Which they said were all made very well!! Food: spicy pimiento dip, tomato & basil flatbread, clyborne greens salad, blackened salmon salad, pan seared salmon, and the clyborne burger. All were fantastic. Portions are great, food is cooked well, ingredients are fresh and seasoned well. We all ate every bite of our dinners!!
This was my first time eating here. We went to celebrate my daughter in laws birthday. The place is cozy and intimate. As we had reservations, we were seated right away. Our waitress was excellent. She was the right source to make our visit a success. She explained the details of the menu so efficiently. When we were told that there was a food allergy, it was taken very seriously. A manager came out to ask details about it and said the cooking staff make any and all adjustments.
My dil ordered the shrimp scampi and while she said it tasted good, the portion was not as much as was expected.
My son and I had their southern fried chicken. The chicken tenders were plump and juicy. The homemade pickles were good. We finished off the meal with their donuts, which were fresh and very yummy.
I went with a group of 4 here on a double date and it was a fantastic experience. The drinks are all amazing we got several whisky pours and cocktails the bourbon smash was especially good. I had a burger which was very good, the chicken was very tender but had a bit of an odd texture that we were not a fan of. The steak tends to undercook from how you order so I would order it more well done then you typically like.
They offered us free desert and our waiter was funny and very good. I would Definitely go back and I had a great time.
Wonderful experience by way of food, service, and atmosphere.
For an extra step of immersion, try the seating at the chef's table. The bird's eye view of how the food is prepared and the personal attention of the chef (we had Edgar) takes the good times to a higher level.
I made a reservation in advance, and highly recommend doing so. The drinks were delicious: I had the mocha cocktail and a rum punch. The scallion cheddar biscuits were to die for. I ordered the tomato and corn carbonara, which was fine. I had chicken with it on the side, and I did not enjoy its texture. The manager gave us the donut holes for free since I didn't like the chicken.
Really nice place. Cocktails are superb and reasonably priced. Entrees tasted great and were well presented. Our server Heidi was excellent and really helpful. We got the scallion biscuits appetizer, pork chop and shrimp scampi. Al pastor pork chop is a great combination of the savory pork and the sweet citrus of the pineapple.
Overall one of the best restaurant in northern Cincinnati.

This spot was great and family-friendly. Came in a group of 8, and enjoyed their cocktails / craft beer selection.
Standout dishes included their calimari with roasted peppers, as well as their salad with salmon. Kids were happy with their chicken tenders and pizzas.
Great experience and would go again!
Our friends invited us down to this restaurant. Neither of us had heard of it before. I have a gluten allergy and was thoroughly impressed by my options!
They have a a dedicated fryer and make all kinds of delicious food with GF flour, including fried chicken and calamari!
I personally got the salmon and it was amazing! I also tasted the market special for the night scallops, which were cooked perfectly!
The Grape Crush drink was delicious with real grapes and vodka made from grapes.
We also tried the GF donut holes with caramel. Yum!
My favorite was the Buckeye dessert! It was like a snickers but even better!
Our server was Jess and she was fun, knowledgeable, friendly and added enjoyment to our evening! We will request her anytime we go.
Note: liquor shots were outrageously priced (not included in price per person below), but everything else was reasonable for a great dining experience!
This place exceeded my expectations and is honestly one of the best places I've dined in the Cincinnati area. Service was great, accomodative, and they were proactive about making sure any allergies at the table were noted. Overall, it's a causal vibe, but suitable for a wide range of occasions. There's a full bar and open kitchen too. The menu is good looking. Every app and entree that touched our table was amazing -- all smiles and clean plates. The dishes are thoughtful and have lots of good flavors/textures going on. Their fries and hashbrown squares were notably excellent, I'd say almost perfection! I'll have to save room for dessert next time, but there will be many next times!
First time in but I'll be back. Fish of the day was halibut and with brussel sprouts, not everyone's favorite but I love them. Fish was so good 👍 and then bourbon sour was spot on 👏 😮
