    We’ve had dinner twice at Pepp & Dolores, and both experiences were fabulous. The food is amazing and service is great, but be sure to make a reservation if possible! Pepp & Dolores is obviously very loved, so seats can fill up quick. We look forward to going back soon!

    My wife and I have never had better pasta than here at Sotto. We would for sure come back next time we are in Cincy. From the beef short rib pasta, goat cheese app, the the dessert it was beyond amazing. Must try if you can make it while visiting Cincy!

    Three of us shared a special reunion dinner. The initial hosts were quite polished, yet I felt my guest's attire and my signature (SF Asian Art museum) baseball cap was a possible issue, so I was not surprised when we were sized up and sat in the back/vault. The back was GREAT. More privacy and tons more quiet than the front. The final server we had was THE BEST. He helped us with the menu quickly and seamlessly (he really knew his stuff.) His friendliness was NATURAL, not forced. We were not rushed. Plus he was the perfect balance between professional and friendly. Formal dining etiquette (re clearing and food delivery) were all present and perfect. Yes, this was rather pricy, but I will definitely return, esp for a special occasion. And our server deserved his 30% tip, even if provided by a guy in a baseball cap with casually-dressed guests. ; )

    We had a fantastic experience, from the exceptional service to the delicious food. Our waitress, Raelin, was outstanding. Despite the restaurant being busy, she provided attentive and friendly service throughout our meal. The portion sizes were generous enough to allow for leftovers, something she kindly warned us about, which made us laugh! We ordered the sausage and mushroom pizza, pepperoni pizza, spaghetti with meatballs, and shrimp fra diavolo, and everyone truly enjoyed their meals. The portions are large enough to easily share among at least three to four people. The restaurant's ambiance also contributes to a family-friendly atmosphere. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for our Christmas meal.
