Tavern On The Bend

Very friendly and attentive staff. They were able to prepare the mahi mahi and salmon gluten free alongside their house salad. Food was delicious. Others in our party enjoyed various versions of Mac & cheese which they are known for. Enjoyed the music which started earlier than planned! Wish they would not use plastic utensils and paper plates, but perhaps a dishwasher is not feasible. Nice place for a family meal or to watch the game!

Decided to give the restaurant a shot. It's a seat your self type of bar . We sat down and the server came as soon we sat down. Took our drink order and came back promptly. We decided to order some pretzel sticks with cheese for a appetizer. The pretzel was soft and warm and didn't have alot of salt on it. Our main dish was I ordered a Westside dawg which comes with quarter pound hotdog with bbq sauce and fried onion straws and cheddar cheese and bacon. My wife ordered the goetta mac and chesse. The goetta wasn't over powering. It had good flavor. Overall the total price was 50.00 with tip. Our server was quick to refill our drinks .

What a freakin gem of a find!My friend that lives on this side of town and I were trying to find a place to eat that was chill enough for us to dinner at after work. She mentioned she had a few good things from some colleagues about TotB, so off we went!The tavern is located in an unassuming strip mall at a - shocker - bend in the road. The parking is plentiful but awkward; the spaces are small if you drive a larger vehicle. The inside of the restaurant has the feel of a neighborhood sports bar. I thought I was in for some frozen wings and Bud Lite, but man was I wrong!First thing I noticed was that they have an excellent tap selection. The first time I was here, I had a pumpkin beer (yes, I'm a little behind on reviewing!), and the kind server had the brilliant idea of giving it a honey brown sugar top. GAMECHANGER! It wasn't heavy enough that it gave dessert vibes so it was easy to drink a couple of them.Their menu is heavy on the midwestern, specifically Cincinnati-special, cuisine. They have hanky pankys, y'all!! In true Ohio fashion, I asked my friend from San Diego how she likes her hanky pankys. She responded with concern for my out of place sexual innuendo, to which I had to explain that hanky pankys are an iconic, PG-rated appetizer. Tavern does them the right way on pumpernickel rye. I unfortunately had to share my order, but I'd down a whole plate by myself, easy. TotB is known for their Mac and cheese. As your resident Goetta aficionado, of course I had to order their Goetta Mac. My friend steered toward the lobster Mac. I was surprised that my friends pasta had more lobster than mine did Goetta. I also thought the noodles themselves could have had more cheese sauce. Nonetheless, it was still tasty and I finished what I could before becoming full.Unfortunately, I do not have the privilege of living close enough to this establishment to visit more frequently, nor do I have the funds to move closer. No sir, not in this economy! I will have to settle for driving across town for my hanky Panky fix - pun intended ;)

Haven't been here for awhile. Stopped in for burger week. Their 007 burger was the special. It's a basic burger with their special sauce. The burger had a good taste but was very greasy where my bun was soggy. We had the hanky panky's which were good but the only issue we had with them was that the meat was a ball and when you bit into them they fell off and landed on the table. They do have a big beer selection which was good, but everything was plastic or styrofoam which they throw everything out. Overall it was the same as several years ago and it's not going to be the first choice to eat.

Great find for a break between baseball games. Good variety of food, good service with quick kitchen and they had the Reds game on. 6 minutes from KofC fields of your kids are playing in a tournament.

Awesome food and drink. Always a great stop for Mac & cheese creations or a variety of burgers, chicken, salads or apps. Neighborhood go to anytime day or night. Big draft list, just wish it'd rotate more, but always have the favs.

Visited on a Saturday afternoon, it was pretty full. As soon as we sat down, someone was there to greet us. We got our drinks, as I ordered the Reuben sandwich I was told they were out of corn beef. No biggie, I ordered the Uma Thurman Chicken sandwich. The sandwich was good, and the fries were great. To top it off, someone paid for our table, which was unexpected and very nice. Nice looking place too, I'll be back!

I've ordered the Halle Berry before and have really enjoyed it. The turkey was thick, the chips that came with it were delicious. I'm pregnant and was craving that with the cranberry mayo.. to say I was disappointed was an absolute understatement. I was totally shocked to find that there were no chips in my box when I opened it. I called the restaurant thinking there was just a mistake. Nope, chips no longer come with meals. My sandwich was also missing lettuce, which is something minor but just made the whole experience worse. I ordered a burger (no bun) for my mom which was equally disappointing. I feel like the menu should be very open about not coming with sides, especially because they have in the past. I paid 23.48 for a hamburger patty and a turkey sandwich. A complete rip off and I will not be back.

The good- seated quickly on a Friday at 7. Service was good. The bad- fella playing guitar was way to loud. Had to yell across the table! Ate and left. Food was just ok, Expensive for a below average burger and fries. small food selection. For a good burger, Chandlers is way better and cheaper.

Relaxed atmosphere. We had the chuck Norris and the 007 burger. The burgers were pretty good and the service was friendly. We will definitely be back
