New place and really well done. Drink selection is great for a cool bar and grill that turns into a bar after dinner. Food selection was very good and well prepared. Another great welcomed spot in downtown Cincinnati. Definitely 2 thumbs up!!!

Enjoyed bringing my family down before the Bengals game so much that we came back and ate there after the game while letting traffic clear out. Wonderful atmosphere with great food.

First time visiting this place and we’ll be back. Food was delicious, ambiance was upscale for a sports bar. It was a bit noisy for as empty as it was at 5:30, but it is a sports bar.

Started out fine, we were seated promptly and the waitress took care of us initially . However, after that the service took a nose dive. The waitress seemed to forget about us and it was not that busy. We had to flag down someone else to refill our drinks. The bothersome part is the waitress never acknowledged the fact that she forgot us. We won’t be going back again, plenty of places to go where the service is much better.

We are from out of town and so happy to have found Vintage! We loved the decor and atmosphere. The food was amazing and our server personable and friendly. Great place to watch all the Sunday games. Our only regret is we can’t go back since we had to go home!

intersting space - LOTS Of large tv's, a stage, a big fun bar...the room in the back is set for eating and a small bar, and DJ stand.... decent cocktails and beers. We ordered a beer and got the wrong one ( and when served the second, CORRECT one ) we had to pay for both... a bit disappointing since our server brought the wrong one (and didnt even really apologize for her error! ). The brussel sprouts were decent, the shoestring fries were probably hands down the best item we ordered! We had a chopped salad which was a good size and good; the steak tacos looked good and reportedly were good. The salmon dish was pretty in presentation, with chickpeas and a good indian sauce, but it was basically rare in the middle, and we had to send it back - and the salmon was quite expensive for a "sports bar/ dance club" Not sure what they are trying to accomplish here - sports bar? dance club? dinner ? cool space upon entry - but its HUGE, and felt a chill in the air, maybe all the windows?
