This was our first time at Alfio’s and it was one of the best meals we’ve had in Cincinnati. The empanadas are a must and the Agnolotti was amazing. We will definitely be back for another visit!

Fantastic experience! We celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary at Emmer & Rye. Everyone wished us a happy anniversary and were so attentive. They gave us great wine and food recommendations and everything we tried was delightful. Will definitely dine here again on our next visit

We were in Dallas for a short, anniversary getaway. After seeing reviews, we decided on dinner at Fearing’s one evening. It is now one of the best restaurants in which we have dined. The restaurant (inside the Ritz-Carlton) is beautiful, and the service was excellent. We started with the tortilla soup. I confess I was not a fan—I thought it lacked flavor, and I didn’t care for the radishes that were part of this dish. My husband felt it improved after letting the flavors meld for a bit. However, kuddos to our server, Michael. He went out of his way to help me choose an appetizer I would prefer. I went with his shrimp taco recommendation, and it was amazing! For our mains, my husband tried the antelope and I had the buffalo tenderloin. Both were superb! They were cooked to perfection, and their accompaniments were delicious. The jalapeño grits that came with the buffalo were a favorite of us both. Michael surprised us with a side of duck fat tater tots; they were a little heavy for me, but my husband loved them. We ended with wild blueberry fried pies that came with lemon curd and vanilla ice cream. They were an excellent end to our meal. We both agree we will look for excuses to return to Dallas just to dine at Fearing’s.

Food was great, as always, though we were very sad to see that they had removed several components of their antipasto platter which had made it much more authentically roman than the standard meat and cheese boards which you can get everywhere. Music is a little too loud for easy conversation.

Jacoby's is one of our go-to spots in East Austin, especially because of how dog-friendly they are! Their outdoor patio is perfect for my senior dog—cool and comfortable, which is why it's one of our favorites in the neighborhood. We recently used my OpenTable rewards for dinner, and it was a total delight. We ordered the chicken fried steak, ribeye, a cosmo, and an old-fashioned. Dinner was delicious, and the service from Amanda was top-notch. Don’t miss their Happy Hour on Wednesdays and Thursdays—we’ll be back soon!

The food was very good, especially the ceviches. The service was slow, it seemed like the staff was very new. For a French bistro, they surprisingly didn't offer any bread at the table, even as a side for oysters or the ceviche. When we asked for bread, they brought a tiny slice of bread per person. I enjoyed the meal overall, but they do need to give more bread!
