Montgomery is a city in Hamilton County, Ohio, United States, settled in 1796. The town was a coach stop on the Cincinnati-Zanesville Road, later known as the Montgomery Pike, with an inn, two taverns, a grist mill and a carding mill to process its agricultural products. It would remain a rather sleepy hamlet until the 1960s when it became an affluent bedroom community for people working in Cincinnati. It retains its historic downtown with many other 19th-century houses scattered throughout the community. It is currently accessed from exit 15 off Interstate 71 and exit 50 off Interstate 275, and it is the eastern terminus of the Ronald Reagan Cross County Highway about five miles northeast of the Cincinnati city line. The population was 10,251 at the 2010 census.

Had lunch here after walking around the park. We sat outside. I had the brown dog club, it was ok. The chips were bland. They try and get you to upgrade your side, but I was ok with the chips. It's pricey and the food was average. Overall, not spectacular but decent food. Probably wouldn't go back.

We have eaten here several times. They serve the best pancakes in Greater Cincinnati. I love the strawberry pancakes with FRESH strawberries almost year round. They do have other breakfast dishes that are very good, but why would you want anything else when the pancake specialties are so good? They are always busy, but the service is always good.

Had to wait about 30 minutes on a Saturday evening but the wait was worth it. The service was outstanding and the burgers were delicious. Everyone enjoyed their meal.I would take the onion rings over the fries.

Sure, they have great ribs and BBQ sauce. We all now that. But the under-rated gem of this place is the Cantonese shrimp. I often get the appetizer PLUS the main course of the shrimp. I cannot get enough of it, as the special hot mustard/plum sauce is divine. But be prepared to sweat as it packs a punch of spicy hot flavor.Over the years, the service has gone down hill, but I still go here every time I am in Cincy.Dear 595DM,We are glad you like the shrimp at the Montgomery Inn.We hope to see you again the next time you are in Cincinnati we will have the shrimp waiting for you.Best Regards,Ryan ChaitMontgomery Inn Inc.

All the good servers are gone !Our family had dinner here on Sunday and boy have times changed . Not only has the service gotten worse but our food was bad too . The Smokin Shrimp was tough and tasted " Old " The Creekstone Pork Chops were under cooked &The Filet Del- Mar was still mooing on the plate . The atmosphere was hectic and loud . The servers were catering to other customers and ignoring us. They lost their Best Bartender in Cincinnati.

Walkin in feels like you entered a cool man cave with a bunch a happy guy roommates pourin brew and makin some kick ask burgers.Gourmet all the way. So we were a group of 3 set out for a burger and brew "experience". We made certain to arrive the minute the lunch doors opened, and happy we were cuz that placed filled up like an Ohio college bar on game day.My first glance at the menu and the beer-battered bottleneck fries jump right out at me. Sounds a bit much, right...but NOOOOOOOOO, they were lightly lightly breaded and added a crunch to compliment the soft potato goodness. I'd slip back in there just for the fries and a beer.The waiters are fun and funny and running running running...great service. I asked the waiter to pick something out for me...don't even tell me...just bring me your favorite.So I got a honey toasted roll with Guac, Chipotle mayo, guacamole, lettuce, tomato, bacon and jack cheese. JUST THE PERFECT AMOUNT OF GUAC...not a sloppy mess! It was stupendous! All three of our burgers were perfect doneness!!!One friend got the Sammy's Burger with Sammy's Sauce, fried egg, lettuce, tomato, bacon and mozzarella cheese. Perfect! Delicioso!Third friend got the Juicy Lucy with smoked BBQ with marrow, sharp cheddar, bacon, smoked BBQ sauce, onions, jalepeno straws, smoked Kentucky Bourbon sauce, served with chicken BBQ Mac and Cheese. That mother load was the best...with mac and cheese to boot!This is a "must-visit" is in Cincinnati!!!!

Since 1969 Blue Ash Chili's premium chili has been made with the same family recipe using only top-quality ingredients. It's not too spicy and served Cincy-style: cheese coneys, 3-, 4-, 5- and even 6-ways. Our restaurants have the feel of a small town din

Wanted to check this out after seeing an episode of Diner's, Dives, etc on Food Network even though we have always been fans of competitor Skyline Chili. Location was a little tight inside but service was very good. Their chili is noteabily different from Skyline's Chili and not worth changing from our perspective. Tried their "chili lasagna" as recommended on Food Network - way too much chili and somewhat limited on the pasta and cheese. Couldn't finish. Had hoped to try their sandwiches but didn't have a chance. Many years ago, their triple deck sandwiches were well known,

When a restaurant is being remodeled and you make a reservation, they should let you know. This was not quite the experience we expected for our wedding anniversary dinner. The area where we were seated - the yet to be remodeled part - is very tired. Light fixtures and floor covering were missing. We had been to Melting Pot years ago and it was fairly simple The menu mow is quite complicated. You have t choose from several cooking methods. Our error was that we ordered beef and not the oil or grill to cook it. We should have selected the grill. Our server was very good, with lots of information. Most of the food was good, but the beef filet was tough. Very nice salads. If we had known about the remodeling, we would have gone elsewhere and probably had a a better overall experience. The right thing to do would be to close down, remodel and reopen.Doug, I would like to apologize for your recent experience with us. If you see this please email me at [email protected].

Casual family friendly taproom and pizza kitchen located on the Little Miami River and bike trail. 16 different beers brewed on site plus liquor and wine choices. Menu includes salads, pretzel sticks, chili, and churro donuts.
Reviewed By DennisB802
At only a little over one year old this craft brewery has a good thing going. The draft beer menu offers ample selections and each one tried was really good. They donât have an extensive food menu. It is primarily pizzas which are good and some salads. The seating is open seating and when crowded it takes awhile to get a table. There are two ordering stations for food and beer. Again when crowded it takes awhile to order. Itâs location is on the little Miami river and in the summer it would be nice to sit outside. Overall quite a good craft brewery.
