Cincinnati Country Club

Had dinner here tonight for a work function - note that the dinner was hosted by a member so I didn't have to pay anything for the function so it's difficult for me to ascertain a value but I imagine its a fairly pricey venue to bump elbows at.Atmosphere: Entrance was pretty nice albeit kind of confusing to get to the main entrance we ended up in a side parking lot as its not clear which pathway gets you to the main. Once inside we were greeted and direct to a side cocktail area with circulating canapes and flowing drinks. Afterwards we were directed to the main dining area which was immaculately set to the point of being intimidating I made sure to keep my elbows off the table. Bathrooms were very nice though the mens bathroom was a bit of a venture to find from the dining area. Overall its certainly got the stereotypical country club feel.Service: Very good - servers were all incredibly kind and attentive, I was certainly one of the more uncouth guests and I wasn't good at hiding how much I liked the canapes, the servers seemed to enjoy that and made sure to circle by me a bunch which I greatly appreciated. Only issue I had was a joke I made to I think the manager? not sure - where they brought out these absurdly tiny sundaes and I joked asking where the adult size was... Apparently jokes are not tolerated at the CCC - I was given the "you clearly don't belong here look" lol. Food: Best part were the canapes - specifically the cheese puffs, I woulda liked just a plate of those things. Drinks were pretty good too, house white was great and my gin and tonics were strong but not incapacitating strong. Salad was pretty mundane but my salmon was very good - filet was good as well. Had two options for rolls, one of which was a pretzel roll which I liked. Dessert as noted above was wayyyyyy too small it was like two bites of sundae but apparently we do not speak of this. It was a good dinner and certainly a fun night - that being said I have no idea how much this place costs and I imagine its far outside my conceivable budget

Beautiful venue for the work holiday party. Gorgeous decorations, lovely live band and courteous staff. We had a great evening. The appetizers and dinner were both good. I loved the cheese puffs and the cheese assortment. For dinner i enjoyed the turkey and assortment of vegetables especially the carrots, asparagus and stuffed zucchini. Was impressed by the quality of the food as well as the helpfulness of the staff.

Having never played the course, I can't comment on the greens, but I can definitely recommend the club house and the excellent bartenders, servers, and staff as being top notch. The house is traditional and "fancy" so it is great for a reception, dinner, or any special occasion where you need to impress. Parking is close by and valet is also an option. There is a coat check available for the colder months too. *Personal trivia: I had my first eggs Benedict here. I liked it.

One would think that the person at the front desk would greet anyone, including a non-member, with a smile and politely inquire, "How may I help you?" This has not been the case in my recent two encounters with the same person. In fact, the experience has been nothing but extremely rude. In a nutshell, I was greeted with a stern blank stare as if to say, "Why are you hear and why are you bothering me?" Really?! Your first point of contact needs a little customer service training.

I always feel like I need to mind my Ps and Qs when visiting this place.But, shouldn't we do that every place?Anyway.The CCC. This is the kind of place where the staff have one mission - to serve you. With a polite smile, they'll take your coat, pour you a drink or show you to your dining party - and swiftly.Crack open the hardback menus and you'll discover a list delicious country club standards including grilled salmon salad and grilled veggie paninis. At least, that's what I perused during a recent luncheon there.The CCC also serves a variety of delicious canapes and hors d'oeuvres during cocktail parties. One of those items includes an awesome cheese crisp that I am told is just made with shredded parmesan and mayonaise. Should you get a chance to step beyond these cloistered walls, I suggest you take it, and reminisce about a time when things were slower and service was deliberate.

The New York Strip I ate there was probably the best steak I've had in my life.The location is great. Eating outside and watching the golf course is the best.

As a frequent guest , I find CCC really exceptional. The food at all the locations is wonderful and staff has been great always. As for golf, the course is always in immaculate condition and not that busy on most days. The hills make it a difficult course to plat as are some narrow fairways but it is still a very challenging and enjoyable experience.
