20 BrixWorth a tripWe had an absolutely outstanding - by the standards of any restaurant in town - Restaurant Week meal. The fact that it was a Restaurant Week special is irrelevant except for the very reasonable price; we would purchase our dishes again a la carte without hesitation. Dishes were both creative and delicious. Just to mention a few: the Kale salad, the smoked whitefish fish appetizer, the shrimp and grits, and the risotto were as good as any we have ever had. If we could change other plans, we would return again this week. On another note: the wine list is outstanding in the under $100 range with a broad selection of wines by the glass and 2 oz. taste.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMMothers Day DinnerWe had a gift Certificate so we decided to use it & we were glad we did, the filet with asparagus was delicious, & the staff was wonderful, we will go back!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMAmazing burger? Who knew!!!!We've been to 20 Brix many times. We've camped out with the conversation platter and a bottle of vino. We've thrown down on the shrimp and grits with a bottle of vino. But we went on our self-created weekly holiday, Burger Saturday. Every week we search out another place to enjoy what may be a gourmet burger.
We were BLOWN away by the season burger at 20 Brix. It was a beef and pork burger - AMAZING. It had a red wine thousand island that was phenomenal. It was topped with a smoked aged cheddar. The pomme frites were perfection. We even got a side of the grits - just for fun.
This burger just made it into my top 5 burgers of Cincinnati. SERIOUSLY! This is a burger for burger lovers! Thank you again, 20 Brix!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent As AlwaysRecently, I had the opportunity to return to 20 Brix. It was well worth the return trip. To start, the wine and beer list for that matter is extensive and the staff is well versed to help you choose something you will enjoy. Jeff (our waiter) is friendly, patient, and more than happy to take time to explain the wines and food preparations in detail. I will return to 20 Brix often and bestow my highest praise on this establishment. Well done!5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMFoodies will love this place!My wife and I and two friends had lunch and we all loved it. The indoor area is elegant and hip. A small outdoor dining area looked comfy with lots of flowers and plants. Try the crab cakes for a delightful light lunch. The wine list is extensive. Our server was pleasant and attentive. Portions are reasonably sized for those who are watching their weight. Foodies will like this place. There is a parking lot behind the restaurant.

A personal touch.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMA real gemWe had heard about 20 Brix in advance and it lived up to its reputation. The wine list is truly international with great wines in many price ranges. Many are for purchase as you go out. The food was delicious, fresh ingedients and beautiful presentations. Our server was very friendly, and knowledgable about the wines and she knew how all the food was prepared. She even helped one of our party assemble a nice vegetarian plate. Lots of fresh seafood in Ohio, which i had not expected. The owner came by a couple of times to see if everything was to our liking.4/17/2013 12:00:00 AMMany wines available by the glass!A decent place for wine lovers. Many wines available by the glass or by the pour; far more than offered by most places. Mondays is retail bottle night with any wine they offer available without the traditional mark up. Give it a try4/15/2013 12:00:00 AMSkip the chain restaurants!Menu choices were unique and well prepared. Large number of seafood dishes. A fair number of dishes featured breading - difficult for low-carb diners. Pizza is a sleeper. They are good value but sometimes lacking meat. Server's wine knowledge was fairly good in terms of taste descriptions and pairings. Starter choices were actually more interesting then entrees. Special fish at $28 was very expensive compared to rest if the menu. Desserts were only described orally - difficult to remember without a tray or menu. Environment is very nice and we really liked having a 2oz. by-the-glass option for wine. Wine pairing suggestions on the menu might be a nice touch.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMOur new favorite place!This is our new favorite place to bring visitors for a special dinner. The ambiance is terrific with the beautiful old fashioned windows looking out onto a lighted patio and all of the cute little shops around town. The wine list is as good as it gets. And the food is some of the best I've had in a long time. There are always some really different and creative options and everything we tried was delicious (we were all trying each other's food). We started with the mushroom bruschetta - very different but so yummy! For entrees we had strip steak, pork blade, seafood boudin and the lamb and all were just wonderful. Make sure you leave room for dessert also - we had one of each at our table and could not decide which was better.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstandingI am embarrassed to say that mistakenly forgot to complete a review on 20 Brix after my original visit! For that I am sorry. That being said, the restaurant and service (Jeff) is outstanding. I had the 20oz (yes, I was hungry) strip, it was cooked perfectly and tasted wonderful. Being new to the wine scene, I felt intimidated with the vast array of wines available. However, Jeff our waiter saved the day by walking through the wine list and making recommendations. Overall, it was an outstanding experience and I can't wait to return.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was the Spring Wine TastingThis was the Spring Wine Tasting -- every course was delicious, and the wines were outstanding and all very reasonably priced. We are excited because there are so many more tastings scheduled and they are always so good.4/2/2013 12:00:00 AMMy family has eaten at 20My family has eaten at 20 Brix several times and no matter what we order it is always a delicious experience.

We started with the Appetizers and got the Chicken Liver Pate with an Onion Jam and Crostine and the Laughing Bird Shrimp with Confit Potatoes -- both were amazing. Thenwe tried the two new salads, the Toasted Farro Salad with Canteloupe, Snap Peas and a Creamy Feta Cheese. The other salad was Baby Kale with Pickled Carrots and Smoked Bleu Cheese. We got 4 different entrees so we could all taste and share. We got the Snap Pea Risotto, The 10 Oz. Strip Steak, The Lobster Roll and The Braised Lamb Shoulder Ciabatta. They were all so delicious but my personal favorite was the Risotto. Looking forward to the Wine Tasting on April 2!3/27/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways a great experience.Always a great experience.
