Subito

My daughter and I had out first and only experience at Subito on Christmas Day. Hey, I get it, Christmas is a time when a lot of people don't want to be working. But, you know, the restaurant was open and there were several parties seated before and after us. We perused the online menu the day before our reservation. We were excited. Imagine our surprise to be given a limited brunch menu. Imagine studying a menu the day before because you are excited to go somewhere new and then being given brunch choices you could get anywhere. The only remotely Italian item on the menu was the squash risotto. There were two vegetarian dishes offered, one being the risotto. My daughter, being vegetarian, ordered the risotto. I had a burger. The burger was okay. It wasn't what I was expecting to eat on Christmas Day. Let me interject that no where on the internet was notice that a limited brunch menu was on offer. The risotto was swimming in oil. You could literally see a sheen of it glistening across the dish. It was inedible. But it gets better! Before the food was served, I ordered a latte. It came to the table in a paper cup. It was obviously from a Keurig or similar. My daughter literally could not eat the risotto. I took a bite and the mouthfeel was of oil coating the inside of my mouth. She put the dish of risotto to the side of the table. When the waitress came back to the table (eventually) she didn't bother to ask if there was something wrong with the risotto, nothing. She just took it away. There was someone who seemed managerial in the front of the restaurant but she never came by to check in on the patrons. The topper was when my daughter drained her only cup of coffee (no offers of warm ups) after not eating her food and ended up with a mouth of grounds! We burst out laughing because the whole experience was so awful. Merry Christmas to us! The server was not a good server, but she was pleasant. The lobby when we walked in was sumptuous in appearance and festive. The young woman at the front desk was very friendly. You know, I don't even think there was any holiday music playing in the background (I could be mistaken). Not a good experience, but one we will aways remember.

Excellent, excellent experience at Subito. I wasn't sure what to get but I asked my waiter for a recommendation and he was very thorough describing all the dishes and truly went above and beyond. I wish I remembered his name. He really sold me on the Saltimbocca so I went with that. This dish is one of the best meals I've had in a long time. The chicken was juicy, and the sauce I could drink. It took everything in me not to lick the plate clean. I will be thinking about this dish for a long time and can't wait to get it again. Also I was sitting in the back room that had a great view of the city. I wish I had pictures to show. The ambiance was amazing and they had live music which was also phenomenal. It was the perfect date night.

Highly recommend, came on a Friday night for my moms birthday and were sat in the four seasons patio room. Could here live music from bar area but not to loud which was lovely. Server was extremely knowledgeable of menu, and wine pairings. Started with fried calamari which was absolutely amazing and large portions for the table! Also highly recommend you order a side of potatoes, fam favorite.

Been wanting to try this place, but wasn't thrilled. The service was friendly and the ambiance was nice, but the food was hit or miss. We went for restaurant week to try the whole experience. I liked my caprese salad, but his Caesar salad was just okay. He was not a fan of his lobster pasta, and I thought my Chicken Saltimbocca was just okay. The dessert was pretty basic, but not bad. Especially for the price, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. There are several better Italian options in the area at similar or better price points.

Wonderful ambiance and good selection of food!I tried Subito for a quick bite after a long flight from a business trip. Overall, I felt the food and experience were quite good. Located within a hotel lobby, this restaurant offers Italian cuisine like pizza, pasta, salad, fish/meat entree. There are nice table services in the dining room, and a more casual bar area with big screen TV with sports. When I arrived, the hostess greeted me warmly, and I was offered a nice table. The server was very helpful and brought over complimentary bread/butter/olive oil. For the entree, I picked the shrimp linguine for $31. It was in a semi spicy pesto sauce with generous servings of shrimp. It was delicious, and the portion was just right. The ambiance of the restaurant felt semi formal. There were couples coming in for their anniversaries and business dinner being conducted in another dining room. The service was a bit slow, but my server was very friendly and helpful. Great place for a quiet sit-down meal with good selections of entrees.

Did an early Sunday "brunch" at 9am. Place wasn't too crowded but definitely had some customers. Service was far better than other reviews had led us to expect, but we didn't care too much as we didn't have much on the agenda for the day.Everything was great! Even the coffee and the cranberry juice of all things seemed better than expected. Even things like the side of fruit coming out of the kitchen looked amazing!Our table had the Kale & Beet salad, Banana Bread French Toast which was amazing, Uova Il'Inferno (a spicy egg and tomato dish with bread shared by the table, so fantastic), and Cornetto Americano sandwich. Everything was awesome, would go again.

Delicious and fast service joint within the Lytle Hotel. Food came out quickly and was delicious. Solid Caesar Salad. The Lamb Shank was delicious and fall off the bone. 10/10 recommend.

Decided to try this place during Restaurant Week and the prie fixe menu did not disappoint. The service was incredible, though I did get a little slower as the restaurant got busier, which is to be expected. The bread service was delicious. Definitely ask for this along with the accompanying oil.The restaurant week cocktail was perfectly balanced and tart as well as sweet. I enjoyed the lobster ravioli and hope they decide to add this to the regular menu as I will return for it. Dessert was a delight. The weather was a little rainy, which didn't allow for outdoor seating, but I would enjoy doing that in the future.

I almost don't want to review Subito out of fear that this gem will be discovered. It would be a disservice, however, not to share the underdog contender of Cincinnati fine dining. It is, without a doubt, just as good as Soto, at half the price. It is good, hearty, Italian food. Plenty of menu options, each a unique and complete blend of flavors. Service is prudent, punctual, and personal. We felt we had a report with out server that no where else can quite match.It perfectly blends fancy and hip. The atmosphere is relaxed, and never feels overly full of itself. It is a 5 out of 5, no question.

Absolute trash experience. Whilst the decorum, which is the only reason there is a star, is very elegant and wonderful ambience. It is left to be desired due to lack or basic manners, customer service, guest experience and cold ass food. "Managers" who look uncomfortable when interacting with guests and don't know how to handle a simple situation or use verbal communication should not be in that position. Your staff needs retraining on how to address issues and be informational to guests. Even bartenders should acknowledge guests by greeting guests, even if it's a simple "hey, I will be right with you."While the pictures make the food look remarkable, it's all tainted by the terrible experience yall have decided to provide and a lack of desire to return. Do better.
