Alcove-OTR

If you're looking for an elevated brew pub experience you need to give this place a try. The place has a great ambiance and you can tell this is a nicer experience than most breweries. The food menu is relatively small, but the food we tried was all very tasty. And of course the Mad Tree beer was tasty as well. Service was a bit on the slow side, but was friendly and accommodating. They do have a kids menu and our daughters enjoyed their food as well. There is paid parking in a lot just next to the restaurant.

The atmosphere was relaxing & warm - we didn't have reservations, so we had to sit in the bar area which was very nice. Loved the greenhouse vibe. The food was ok. The risotto needed more seasoning, the fried chicken sandwiches seemed to be extra fried, the bread board was delicious, the tofu was good, as were the carrots in the chicken dish. Drinks were decent, but not super exciting. The bar tender was helpful. With so many dining options in OTR (& Cincy in general), I expected a better culinary experience. It won't be my first choice to go back to, but I wouldn't balk at going if others suggested it. Hope this helps!
