Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Middletown

Great experience! Great service. As always. Thank you

Our first visit to Shire’s did not disappoint! Beautiful restaurant with great views! Katrina took very good care of our party of six. Chef does an excellent job creating unique flavor profiles. Tried the fried green tomato, beef Wellington and mussels appetizers. All were perfectly prepared and delicious! Our entrees included the pork chop, salmon, shrimp & scallops, and chicken roulade. Again all dishes were delicious!! The only negative was the chicken was a little dry and could have used a sauce to help with that; but the pea risotto that accompanied it was very tasty. The pear mocktail was lovely too!! Perfect place for special occasion dinner!!!

The name says it all. It was a lovely cozy dining experience. Our first time there and it was a lovely evening. Nothing fancy, but food and service were both excellent.

My wife and I are from out of town and came to Cinci for the weekend to celebrate our 12th anniversary and visit our daughter and her husband. We chose Jag’s on line having never eaten here before. WOW did it blow us away. Ambiance galore. The crafted bourbon drinks were top notch. My salad with the house made vinaigrette was way above ordinary. My wife loved her filet and sea bass, and my morel mushroom risotto and filet just might be my favorite steak meal ever! Our waitress Danielle was amazing and the live piano music sent the evening over the top. Can’t wait to return for more!

I took my parents for dinner- I had the chicken Parmesan which was SO yummy! We ordered the mozzarella sticks and the sauce that comes with it was fresh and delicious. Others at the table ordered steak, pork chops, and the Bolognese and everyone left happy. Would definitely recommend and plan on returning!
