Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Glendale

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!!!

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!

We had the pork dumpling appetizer to share, along with my Lunch Steak Julienne, Fried Rice, Hibachi Vegetables, and Onion Soup, with hot green tea. My husband had Lunch Hibachi Shrimp, Fried Rice, Hibachi Vegetables, and salad, with Pepsi. It was our first time sitting at the bar in the lounge, we were celebrating our 32nd Anniversary. The service was wonderful, they kept our drinks full, and our food was delicious.

Always great food and this time exceptional service. A great restaurant for a special occasion or a place to casually enjoy half off wine night!

The food quality was excellent, per usual. We were a large family group (myself, my husband, my teenage & young adult children, and my mom who is visiting from out of state) and everyone loved their food. The seafood night on Tuesday is a great value! Our server, Taylor, was attentive & friendly. Some of us shared a giant slice of carrot cake for dessert and it was one of the best desserts I have ever had. I thought my teenage son was going to lick the plate!
