"The restaurant had a hired photographer invading the privacy of the diners. We expressed to the manager that we were uncomfortable being photographed or our photo 's being used in their marketing materials. We were told they were blurring faces; however, we stated we were still uncomfortable and do not wish to participate. The photographer then went outside and continued taking photo 's directly at us. We spoke to the photographer directly who again stated that they would blurr faces. We were quite uncomfortable and not enjoying a peaceful meal and asked that he stop until we leave. The photographer said he was just doing his job and then brought the camera directly in front of our table and we could hear the Manager telling him that we weren 't going to like it; however, the photographer attempted to act as if he were taking photo 's the other direction and turned his camera directly on us. We again told them we were uncomfortable and to please stop. The Manager did nothing other than walk away. We immediately paid our check and left. The disrespect of how this was handled and to continue to make us uncomfortable during our meal was very disappointing."

"Ambience was absolutely incredible. We dined in the chandelier room and we had no problem speaking to each other! The music level was at a great and manageable volume. The food was excellent and came out very swiftly and freshly. We each had the ribeye, and both were cooked exactly as we wished, and could sense the quality in the cut. The wine was fantastic, and the restaurant decor made it an incredibly romantic and classy evening."

"Great service! I haven't been this place yet and didn't know they changed most of their menu. The food is quite expensive, but the quality of the food was extremely delicious. Her steak was so tasteful and I have to say that they have the best steak sauce. It was so delicious. Her landscape is so covered and casual. We were there at night and I can't believe how many people eat outside. Well, it was really nice outside, but I liked the interior. I love how her wine room is designed. It sits right in the center of its building with glass walls/windows. It's beautiful! We'll be back with friends."

"Our server was Aldo and he was great, made recommendations and was attentive to all of his tables. We had about 8 different starters for our table and not one of them disappointed. The short rib Mac and cheese was one of my favorites. The wings were also good, I?m not a bleu cheese fan but whatever they did to it was TASTY! Oh and the fried burrata, just wow!!! The mixologist made us some amazing spicy margaritas. I would definitely come back, and would recommend this for a girls night or even a date night."

"There was nothing spectacular to the food. I ordered the Simply grilled Grouper. It had a fishy taste. The piece of fish was smaller than the serving of mashed potato. The green beans were good and our server was excellent. I just was not impressed with the food."

"my friend and I have made reservations based on the fact that she had wobbles soup and had excellent reviews for the woof soup. we were glad that it was a small place so we could talk and catch up. then a few minutes after we sit this guy with a drum, a speaker started to sing and a dame before the restaurant. it was so loud. I couldn't even hear that my friend spoke and we were in the right corner of the back against the wall. it really upset us. there were other tables that also look a little upset."

"We hosted our son's rehearsal dinner at The Phoenix in the President's Room in January 2023. Entering the front doors you will walk up a beautiful marble staircase and note authentic Tiffany glass windows. The ambiance in the President's Room with its 20-foot ceilings is elegant, resembling a different era decades ago. Although we only had about 28 attendees with 4 large tables, many more tables could easily be set without any crowding. With our event being in January, the fireplace was lit, providing a beautiful backdrop to the room. They provided a TV for us to show a looping slideshow of the bride and groom. Connected to the President's Room is a spacious bar, where appetizers were displayed during the cocktail hour and desserts served after dinner. Large paintings adorn the walls in both rooms, and bookcases frame the wall across from the fireplace. With the President's Room located on the corner of the building, large windows on two walls provide a view of the city streets below as well as some natural lighting. The room is old glamour and elegant.Lilly, the Assistant General Manager, exceeded our expectations in every way. Throughout the entire planning process and the evening of the event, Lilly provided exceptional service. Every email and phone call was returned in a timely manner. She offered many ideas and suggestions that we incorporated in our evening. The flexibility offered to us in choosing the menu gave us many options that most venues wouldn't allow without significant upcharges. Lilly was extremely flexible with not only the menu, but with every option provided to us related to the number of hours we could use the room, how long to keep the bar open, and whether to utilize the side entrance. There wasn't one decision to be made that Lilly didn't offer options and flexibility!The evening/dinner was perfect in every aspect. The service was incredible and Lilly was present throughout to ensure things ran smoothly. The food was delicious... we chose a dinner buffet with braised beef short ribs and grilled chicken. The grilled chicken was very good but the braised beef short ribs were incredible! The Phoenix Salad was especially delicious with many guests complimenting it. We had some guests with dietary restrictions, including severe food allergies. Lilly was very meticulous to make sure all guests were well taken care of. We brought in our own desserts including a groom's cake. Again the flexibility to do so was appreciated. All the food was delicious, and many guests told us how much they enjoyed the dinner and the venue.The whole experience was incredible from beginning to end, largely due to the professionalism and service provided by Lilly. With the wedding reception at the Cincinnati Art Museum the next day, The Phoenix provided a very complementary experience for our rehearsal dinner. We had looked at many venues prior to choosing The Phoenix. Nothing compared to what The Phoenix offered in terms of service, professionalism, food and ambiance. Thanks Lilly!"

"Central is one of my favorite restaurants, but in this occasion it disappointed, largely because I had guests from out of town. I had requested a nice table when made reservations; instead, no table was reserved and we were seated right next to the kitchen counter where servers swarmed around us all evening and bumped me at least three times. Then one of the appetizers we ordered was never served, then I was given the wrong order and had to wait for 10-15 minutes for my food to be prepared while my guests had their dinner. I was given a lame excuse (chef didn’t think my steak was done well so they served me a Niçoise instead! . Then, I expected at least that my dinner will be comped but it was not. If I were alone, I would have been more forgiving, but because of my guests I was embarrassed."

"Our server Jeff was as attentive and patient as we fought to narrow our selection (too many delicious options to choose from). The food is consistently delicious and this is easily a favorite restaurant due to the consistency of the quality of meals and service."

"Porcellino 's ahs been one of my favorite brunch spots for a while, and we went again on 2/25/18. I was disappointed to see they have discontinued their brunch menu and now just offer their regular breakfast/lunch menus. Unfortunately, several of my favorites on the brunch menu are not offered any longer. In particular my favorite breakfast in all of Memphis, the Poached Egg ; their delicious grits with the smoky bacon-tomato gravy greens with eggs on top. I had the chicken biscuit which is very good, but have to order a la carte sides if you want a full meal. Also gone with the brunch menu is the $5 **** mary.....still have them, just $7 now. Anyway, food is still good, but with more limited options now that brunch menu is gone and no longer having my favorite breakfast which was so unique to Porcellino 's I doubt I 'll be going nearly as often."

"tim our server is what our experience made an a .or a perfect 5 out of 5. great place to celebrate our sons to the 20th birthday and his engagement for the air force. he promised to kidnap him for a high price arrest. for us, common people this was a splurge, but we made an unforgettable experience, even the sohn saw the bill and when he put it, it made me crooked yes, its elevated and high prices, but we were not disappointed. Thank you. tim that everything went smoothly, even the server dropped my meal and I had to wait until all the others were done before even mine began. we appreciate them and know if it wasn't for them, it would have been a bad experience."

"Food was a pleasant surprise. It was really good. My blackened food was a bit too hot for my taste but others would like it. We had a first night waiter we thought was doing very well. Unfortunately his supervisor chose to reprimand him on a small item, right in front of us. The supervisor should have done that in the kitchen instead of potentially spoiling our dinner."

"an eclectic local jersey city (paulus hook) bistro. for everyone there is something. try the kung pao cauliflower as an appetizer. wild mushroom pizzeta was decadent good. our waitress was very friendly and knew when we came to the table and when we were giving time. the bartender has lifted our wine glasses to the end of the meal, which was a professional note. I will definitely return and recommend this to friends."

"This is near a real French bistro as you can find in Cincinnati. No attempt to use the concept with non-French courts except perhaps for a Charcuterie Board, the value of the year. If you have a large Cassoulet or perfectly cooked duck or a number of excellent dishes that are appreciated, this is the place to go. The atmosphere is pleasant and cozy, nothing imagination but comfortable. Sam's service and two assistants were everything you would hope from family restaurant. The wine list is a bit eccentric with only region and Varietal listed in most cases, but they offer taste of a few wines at no cost. All about a nice bistro. Did I say they even have white tablecloths?"

"Service was hit and miss. We got seated right away but took a while to get anyone to take our order. Once they did, food came out pretty quick but looks like we came in right before happy hour so maybe they had more folks just start. Food was okay. Nothing extraordinary but nothing bad either. The seafood deviled eggs were basically smoked salmon deviled eggs, which was fine for us but may be a bit deceiving for others. Brussel sprouts were good with mint adding a unique twist. Fish and chips were about average and risotto was bland."
