Cohearts Riverhouse

Found this restaurant on our way from Lexington to Cincinnati taking the scenic highways. The two servers running the dining area were sweet but didn't seem to be over 14 years old. Only ordered coffee and soup once we realized how dirty the tablecloths and the condiment containers were. Asked for cream for the coffee twice but by the time creamer was brought to the table, the coffee was cold. Not once was the coffee offered to be refilled. When the soup arrived, it was lukewarm. Wouldn't have mattered much if it was hot as it was the most under seasoned soup ever, absolutely no flavor. Ever hear the adage for weak coffee, "tastes like only had one bean run through it?" Well, that could be said about this soup--did I mention it was bean soup? When we asked if the soup came with crackers or something, the server looked puzzled, and brought out a plate of unwrapped crackers! Unwrapped crackers and snacks are prone to harboring bacteria. Needless to say, we didn't eat them. Not sure if the county health department visits this place but they should. Restaurants using cloth tablecloths should replace them between every sitting, as the cloth may be covered in food and bacteria. Ohio Revised Code 3717-1-04.7 requires cloth linens to be clean and free of food residue. Eat here at your own risk.

First let me say my best friend and I just found this place on 100% luck. We went for a dive and was getting hungry and sadly every place we found was either closed or across the river in Kentucky. We literally stopped at a pizza place just around the corner but it looked like either take out or limited seating. I googled yep I didn't use yelp sorry but everything I had found so far was closed. Well this was around the corner and right on the river. We pulled up and I thought it was closed as well, but I did see it was opened. We walked in and was shocked at it being very small town feel, well duh did you look at Ripley it is a small town. We sat down and ordered and I was super shocked at how good the food was and the service was good. Just before with left the waitress mentioned how good their burgers are and that they are hand made Pattie's. I can't wait to come back and try a burger and this is almost 2 hours from my house, but in my option so worth it. Fresh homemade bread, appetizers were house made as well as the dessert. So good and I will be back. The drive and the view was also worth it. Fun drive and great view.

This is the best restaurant in Ripley, OH but be aware Ripley could use more choices. The food can be very good to average. It is a nice local restaurant and one we try to support. They don't have a alcoholic beverage license, so, you can bring your own bottle! Prices are very fair and the staff is friendly and appreciative of your being there.

As a new resident of Ripley we decided to get dinner at a local restaurant. What an unexpected treasure this restaurant is. The waiter, who happened to be a teenager, was very professional and knowledgeable probably one of the best waiters we have had. The food was spectacular, I had the prime rib which was seasoned and cooked perfectly. I am looking forward to returning.

This place was amazing! Going in, I didn't know what to expect. But gee wholly was I surprised. Not only was the food absolutely amazing, the wait was short, and the service was great! The bread was to die for. My waitress, I believe her name was Reagan, was so patient and kind! She served with a smile and a side of love! That girl should get a raise! I've never had a waitress be so accommodating and quick. She seemed as though she genuinely cared about mine and my husbands experience. I would have tipped her a million dollars, if I had it, ha ha! 10/10 recommend this place folks.

Really cute and a great atmosphere. Come prepared to wait for your food, it is not a quick in and out place. Decent food made better by the ambiance.

This quaint little restaurant was just what the doctor ordered. Morgan was an awesome waiter. He only added to the atmosphere of the place. Great view of the Ohio river.The country ribs were exceptionally tasty. Generous portions. The fresh baked bread was icing on the cake.You really can't go wrong.I'm looking forward to coming back.

Only open on the weekends. Nice quiet place to come and relax. Great prime rib. Good ribs, soups, salads, and more.

Great little place on the river. Very much a unique mom and pop restaurant worth visiting.

The staff is very friendly, view of the Ohio river fantastic, and the food is fresh, homemade, and incredibly delicious every time I've been there.The interior decor is somewhat dated and needs updating, but I've never had an unpleasant dining experience.Do get the "Killer Brownie", if they have it that day. That's my only real complaint, that they don't have that every day.
