Oasis Diner

★★★★☆ 3.9 (379) • $$

"Amazing place! Looks like I just walked into a movie! The food is delicious and the soda is the best soda I've ever tasted, and I don't drink soda often because of the nasty after taste. The food was quick to make and presented very well."

Bite

★★★★☆ 4.2 (301) • $$

"we walked in right when they opened at 11 and were immediately sat for a table of 7. we started with the bite flight which is one of our favorites for when we have more than 4 people. i got the pickled goat salad with chicken and it was super tasty and served with balsamic vinaigrette. would rank 8.7/10. my husband got the cuban sandwich and it was crispy outside and so much flavor. would rank 10/10. some other people in our group got the greek sandwich and tomato basil pesto soup. the soup they said was amazing but the sandwich lacked flavor. soup is 9.2/10. greek sandwich was 7/10."

"We ate here before catching a Comedy Sportz show at the nearby Wit theater. And what a lucky find. The food was incredible and the team made us feel at home. Highly recomme"

Sugar N' Spice

★★★★☆ 3.7 (226) • $$

"What is not to like here? A sparkly shiny chromed diner takes you back to the good old days. Once you enter you will be enthusiastically greeted and seated. The interior is very colorful with chrome and mirrors everywhere. Love the seats in pink, aqua and a light yellow. So cool. Their advertised specialty here are whispy thin pancakes. Even so I am not a huge pancake fan, I figured I'll give it a try. I ordered a combo plate which game with 2 eggs, meat of your choice and 2 pancakes. The pancakes come in several flavors and they also have a flavor of the week, which was lemon poppy when I visited. Of course I went for the lemon poppy, a decision that proved to be very delicious. My waiter was attentive without hovering. A great skill in my oppinion and much appreciated. He asked if I wanted to order anything else and then brought the check. The check was presented amidst a basket of tiny rubber duckies. Apparently you get to chose a duck to take home with you. How cute. The tough part is deciding which duck to adopt. I settled on a white dragon ducky just because. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for a fun atmosphere, great food and service and of course the rubber ducky."

"We are from out of town and just picked somewhere to eat blindly. This place was amazing. Missy our server was awesome. I have the corned beef hash. Not from a can! It was amazing. The home fries are real potatoes. Fast, great service, and great food. Highly recommend!"

"We have a Airbnb up in Northern Kentucky and have ate all the Cincinnati chilies, this one is the best! Big menu cool atmosphere and a rich history. Go try it you won't be disappointed."

Burger Girl Diner

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (232) • $$

"Now that is what I call a delicious burger! We went to Burger Girl for the first time yesterday and really enjoyed our visit. The service was very friendly and the food was delicious. My husband and I both really enjoyed the seasoned fries and the burgers. We both opted for the "Burger Boy Combo" and had zero regrets. My extremely (!) picky four year old ate his entire Burger and then asked for a second!! Believe me when I tell you that this is an extremely rare occurrence. Today he has already asked to go back to Burger Girl."

Mother's Table

★★★★☆ 3.8 (178) • $

"An older building with quite a few vehicles still in the parking lot at 9:30 am. I've had this place bookmarked for years and haven't been able to get to it until today. I had to fast for a late blood draw this morning so I was past my usual breakfast hunger pains and so I was able to drive the 17 mins. I ordered two eggs medium, hash browns, patty sausage with white toast and strawberry jelly. That's what I usually order for breakfast regardless of the restaurant. Everything tasted great except for the hash browns. To me they seemed cut thicker than usual therefore I think they should have been cooked longer. Or maybe its just me. I ate some of them but not all of them.Service was friendly. I was quickly greeted and told to choose my own table. Drink order was quickly taken and menus left with me. The check came fast too once the meal was over. But the kitchen seemed a tad slow for only five active tables. One was finishing, two of us waiting on food, another ordering, and the last one just sitting down. The food was hot though as expected."

Blue Jay Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.3 (117) • $

"My husband and I met a couple of friends at Blue Jay Restaurant for a late breakfast on a Saturday morning. By the time we were seated, there was a line out the door. Blue Jay Restaurant has been around a long time and is clearly a neighborhood favorite. It's your traditional "greasy spoon" diner. The decor is unassuming and the leather benches are creaky, but it all adds to the classic diner charm. They do have an original menu on the wall, which is super cool. Our server was exceptionally friendly. We ordered some breakfast classics like potatoes, bacon, eggs, etc. and my husband got a burger. Overall, everything was as you'd expect. Nothing to write home about, but worth another stop in for some filling, American classic breakfast."

P & S Family Diner

★★★★★ 4.6 (97) • $

"We love their weekly specials, especially the pancakes. The service is always friendly. Atmosphere is welcoming. Food tastes great. Their baked goods are also amazing and unique. It's our favorite brunch spot on the west side."

Lindenwald Station Family Diner

★★★★☆ 4.1 (106) • $

"If you are looking for a class, simple diner, this is it. You won't find avocado toast on this menu. Instead, you'll find classic down-home goodness. My husband and I had to drop our car for some work in the area and he found this place, so we decided to try it out. On a Wednesday morning, this place is PACKED with regulars. There was a table of about 20 older gentlemen (with a few women too) enjoy a what was clearly a weekly breakfast gathering. The entire atmosphere is: simple home-cooked food and classic, not-in-your-face service. We loved it. I got the two egg breakfast with scrambled eggs, goetta, hash browns (perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside), and a biscuit. It was the best biscuit I think I've ever had. Maybe fresh out of the oven. YUM!"

Twig And Leaf

★★★★☆ 3.5 (145) • $

"It's crazy that this place doesn't have more stellar reviews than I see here. My experience was top notch! We had the papusas and empanadas, and I couldn't get enough of it. Perfectly seasoned and authentically prepared. Inexpensive, large potions. Service with a smile! Plus I can't resist a quaint diner setting like this. I can't wait to come back and sample every single thing on their Guatemalan menu."

Dizzy Whizz

"Good burger, good onion rings. The area where u place your order was a little cramped. I had ice cream for dessert and it was delicious!"

Pepper Pod Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.5 (126) • $

"As non-smokers, we still found this to be an incredible gem of a restaurant. When I saw the inexpensive prices, I was worried food would be mediocre, at best. However, we found every bite to be fantastic! If we are traveling within 30 minutes of this place in the future, we will definitely return. We are still talking about the delicious omelette, bacon, biscuits and gravy and perfectly cooked hash browns 3 days later so I decided it was time to offer a review. All items pictured were a total of $24 with drinks! Service was fantastic! Enjoy!"

Barringer's Tavern

★★★★☆ 4.1 (90)

"This was the first time we have went there and it was tremendous! The tenderloin was thick but it a great way! Super tender, juicy, and flavorful! The onion rings were crispy and delish! Can't go wrong with their homemade cheese curds that melt in your mouth. The bar itself had ab old tavern vibe and super cool inside. The band was great but very loud!!"

Four Seasons Family Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.8 (103) • $$

"While it is in a strip mall, Four Seasons manages to be everything you want in a diner. Outdated decor is part of the ambiance but classic breakfast food never goes out of style. Everything from healthy fruit and cottage cheese to not so healthy options like bacon are available. Service is quick and prices are reasonable."

Carl's Town House

★★★★☆ 4.2 (83) • $

"Did not get to try the food, because Yelp states that the restaurant was open and they are not. Even though the owners have told them the are not open.I road down from Columbus (on my motorcycle...in the forecasted rain) to try the Carl's cheeseburger basket, but NOPE!!!For those still reading their actual hours are:Monday: ClosedTuesday - Friday: 7:30 - 6:00Saturday: 7:00 -4:00Sunday: 8:00 - 3:00"

The Tulip Bistro & Bar

★★★★☆ 4 (91) • $$

"I really love this local, neighborhood restaurant with an excellent chef and wonderful atmosphere. We have been there 4 or 5 times and we always enjoy it. Outside or inside, both are quaint and great. It's off the beaten path, in a way, but right in the middle of a great old neighborhood. There is plenty of parking and it is consistently busy on the weekends. Tonight Iris was our server and was fantastic. She was busy as can be but attentive and even made drinks to decrease the wait time when the bartender was busy. She also was bold enough to offer her favorites and recommendations with confidence which I really appreciated. My wife had the short rib sliders and I had the short rib special with mashed potatoes, green beans and fried onions. They were both excellent! My wife had the cheddar broccoli soup and I had the grilled Caesar and we weren't that impressed, but our entrees made up for it for sure!Can't wait to go back."

Proud Rooster Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.1 (78) • $

"I cannot complain! I've been here like five times already and always found the food DELICIOUS! So this place is a family run diner and is only open in the morning to afternoon. The decor is very homely, with photos and trophies adorning the walls. The server is the sweetest! This is a CASH ONLY place so make sure you have cash on you.Absolutely recommend the omelettes (whichever you prefer), hashbrowns, goetta and the fish sandwich. If you are having breakfast, everything is mostly accompanied by a perfect toast! The pancakes and french toast are good too! The price is extremely reasonable and an expansive breakfast would cost like $6!"

Sunshine Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.9 (86) • $

"Sunshine Cafe is a breakfast winner. Today I had the country fried steak and eggs with hash browns and biscuits. The biscuits were light and fluffy and delicious. The sausage gravy is the best. My son had bacon and eggs over easy and pancakes. Everything was hot and delicious. Out services was on it. She made sure we had everything we needed and that everything came out on time. She brought a little package of teddy grahams for my grandson to snack before the food came. As a midwestern cafe, Sunshine is at the top of the list for good food, great service in a clean diner setting."

Red Squirrel

"Chain sandwich shop with dine in or take out. Colerain location was steady but moved well thru orders. Suggest calling in or online order to save you time. Sandwich was average and the pickle was dry. Service was friendly and did well for being busy. Would I go back.... No.. but it was convenient and the staff was friendly."

Grandma's Pancake House

★★★★☆ 3.5 (100) • $

"Oh my goodness ! When I came to this place while visiting Shelbyville I loved it. It's cute and cozy inside and feels like home despite me visiting from way out of state. The service was so nice and quick and made me feel so welcomed. The food was delicious and I enjoyed every bite. When I come back to Shelbyville I'll be sure to come again!"

Friend's Diner

"Service was so friendly. Name rings true! Had fried trout and it was the real deal. Hubs got a fabulous pork tenderloin sandwich. Hash brown casserole is worth its own trip solo. Crispy cheesy goodness. Great alternative to the typical chains."

Indy's Famous Pancake House & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.5 (91) • $$

"Will be very honest in this review. The food here is great. Sometimes awesome! Would recommend. What I wouldn't recommend is dealing with their manager.My boyfriend wanted just strawberry crepes. He told our waitress and I heard just that. When the crepes came, they had strawberry reduction and bananas. He's not a big fan of bananas so we let the waitress know that we only asked for strawberry crepes. They take it back and suddenly she comes back with her manager who seems like she woke up on the wrong side of the bed. With a whole lot of atittude, places the plate down in front of us and goes "what's wrong with it?" My bf says he only asked for strawberries on the crepes. She talks with her shoulders, "you wanted lovely crepes, lovely crepes comes with strawberries. So you want the bananas gone?!" He's so taken back that he quietly answers ".. just.. strawberries." She just grabs the plate and leaves. The waitress brings back the same plate with all the topping scraped off, only strawberry reduction left, and new whipped cream on top. You can see where they just swiped everything off and best part is, he still had like three slices of banana on there. Honestly we were just looking for some fresh strawberries on there but that's too much to ask for cause he got none.He worked in hospitality before and found that so unacceptable. He was so taken back that he couldn't even voice that he in fact did not order lovely crepes, and just strawberry crepes. And to be given back the plate that read "idgaf" put us in a terrible mood when we were so happy to have a morning off together and spend quality time out. Told the waitress that in no way it was her fault and we are not directing the discomfort towards her, but her manager needs to calm down.As much as we love the food, we've decided that we refuse to take our business to a restaraunt with such a terrible manager. Still giving the place 4 stars for the food we've had in the past but just want others to beware of her attitude."

"Everything was delicious! Everything! The restaurant is quaint and situated behind Arcadium. The staff was friendly and helped to explain the menu with enthusiasm. The menu is small but packed with flavor and provides something for everyone. We tried everything on the menu. The burger was so good but the fries were even better and came with curry ketchup. We also had the lions mane mushroom, which was probably my favorite thing! Taste like a crab cake. The menu changes often so I will definitely being going back to try more options."

Storie's Restaurant

"This is your classic amazing small town diner. Home cooked meals and pies off the charts delicious. The service is spot on and very good. The ambiance is right out of the 1970's. The fried chicken special was the perfect size and cooked very well. Make sure you make room for some of the best pie anywhere. The fillings and crust are absolutely amazing."

Sugar n’ Spice

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (74) • $$

"Such a cute vibe! I loved it from the moment we walked into restaurant. The fun, colorful , cartoon filled walls gives this place an upscale yet old fashioned DINER vibe, even though it's casual. We went to the new location in Summit Park in Blue Ash . Our waiter was really great! he gave us so many good recommendations and tips and was right because we loved what we ordered . I took my sister for brunch for her birthday and we started off with a beautiful *mimosa that he recommended. I can't remember the name of it. It was all the colors of the sunset and it tasted delicious too! I prefer lunch so I got the *Reuben and substituted turkey for the pastrami. Our waiter suggested that I have them put a little bit of pastrami in it for flavor and boy didn't make a difference! It was one of the best I've ever had , he also suggested we pay the extra two dollars to get the fries, so we did and they were the first things gone off our plate! My Sister is a big breakfast eater, so he recommended the *Mexican omelette for her. he explained the chef was from Guatemala and uses all kinds of spices in her recipe. Of course, being a foodie, I had to have a bite and try to figure out the spices! Taste nutmeg and taco/chili seasonings! I'm sure there's more but those are the two I could identify, made her omelette very unique. This restaurant is known for their wispy pancakes, but our server also gave us the tip that he actually preferred their *French toast with pecans and maple syrup. We decided to order a small side of that as our dessert! Another thing that makes this place special is that they bring a basket of ducks! Yes, little rubber duckies for you to choose which one you identify with, that you can keep and bring home! Everybody loves a gift right?! My sister stuck hers on the dashboard of the car and it's very cute . Hopefully every time she looks at that , she'll remember our brunch together for her birthday!"

Legacy Pancake House

"Checked out the new location of Legacy Pancake house that opened last Thursday. Their old building burnt down last year and I was so happy to hear they found a new location. Even better, it's close to my house! We went in for dinner and had breakfast and it was just as delicious as their old location. They did a lot of work to the inside, everything was fresh and clean. Service was awesome! As soon as we walked in the door we were greeted and sat quickly. Food came quick & delicious! So excited to have a delicious restaurant in West Carrollton to frequent!"

"I have drove through West Milton for 40+ years and worked occasionally in the town. I NEVER SEEN THIS HIDDEN GEM OF A RESTAURANT. I got on yelp looking for a breakfast joint in Englewood. Seen the reviews and decided to drive the extra mile. Was not disappointed. I had the Mess and it was huge. Hashbrowns, eggs. Onions, peppers and cheese. Hash brown were crispy. My wife had the Bulldog. It was all ahe could eat. If you are looking quality food, service and economical. This is the place. You will need directions, it is not exactly on the main drag."

"Found my go to for gyros! The tzatziki sauce was so good and the gyro meat was cooked just right. A little crisp on the ends but not burned. I also had the pleasure of tasting the half gyro half burger and it was really tasty too. And the service was really good too. Can't beat that!"
