Best Lunch Restaurants in Northside

My experience at Pepp & Delores was perfect. Our server, Darla was very informative about the menu, made sure our waters were full and drinks were ordered. She checked in with us to see if we needed anything. She was very pleasant to talk to. Our food was outstanding, it is always top rate. My favorite restaurant in Cincinnati. Thank you for the wonderful afternoon!

My wife and I have dined at Jeff Ruby’s a few times over the years. One of the finest establishments that I have ever been in. From the moment you walk in the door you will be amazed at the ambience. When it is time to eat you will have the best steak of your life. Every side dish is amazing (especially those tater tots) and you can’t forget a piece of butter pie! Special shout out to Andrew and Lupe who worked hand in hand to make sure our experience was amazing as usual. See you again soon!!!

Great experience as always. Sarah was extremely cordial and engaging! Cole did a great job serving our table and had a great amount of knowledge of Italian wines and helped us pair a Super Tuscan with our various courses! The food is always so great and was especially great last night!

We love Boca! It only took one phenomenal meal at Boca for me to request it for every following anniversary dinner. Six Boca visits later, I am still smitten. The staff is so personal and the hospitality on a different level. Andrew, our favorite waiter, offers menu guidance that never fails. We so appreciated a personal call from Seth to explain snow cancellations and help us with new reservations. Last night, we enjoyed the Pommes Soufflés, Oeuf Mayonnaise, Gnocchi Fonduta (that melted in my mouth) Prime Tenderloin with lobster, and Red Heritage Chicken, Candy Bar and Cheesecake - all to die for.

We had a great time last night (1/4/25) celebrating my husband’s birthday with friends. Our server was knowledgeable, kind, and attentive. The espresso martinis were delicious and we enjoyed the tomato creole soup, blue cheese chips, and shrimp cocktail. Our entrees were equally delicious and the portions were so large for the price - a great value! We got a free dessert to celebrate the birthday and the carrot cake was DEVINE. If we weren’t going out after, we definitely would have packed up the leftovers for home. We look forward to coming back soon with our kids!
