   The service is outstanding. The bar is a lively, fun place that is enjoyable every time we are there. Every bartender and bartendress is knowledgeable, friendly and personally pleasant. Hats off to Flora, Katie, Travis and Danialle.

   Food was outstanding. Table for four we had: filet, whipped potatoes, cowboy t-bone, short ribs, French onion soup, lobster bisque and the Johnny Bench dessert. All of it was perfect. Ludo our server was also very attentive and the manager stopped to make sure our dinner was as we expected. It was a great evening and I highly recommend.

   My friend and I sat in the new “outdoor” area before a show. Everything was good and the server was friendly. I think the prices are a bit much since the main entrees don’t usually include sides or salad. The sides are shareable. We were in a rush to get the check for the show timing so the manger helped out to get it more quickly, which was nice.

   Service and food were excellent. Our server was very personable and checked on us occasionally. We ordered a couple of items to go and they were brought to our table in a timely manner. We ordered salmon and mashed potatoes on the side as well as dessert. Everything was very nicely prepared and presented. The food was delicious. We will be back.

   This is one of the best restaurants in Cincinnati's region. Food is excellent and the service is always top-notch. The bartenders (Travis, Katie, Flora and Dannial) are great fun and great professionals. Ludo is the best waiter. Great selection of alcohol be it scotch, bourbon, gin, etc. This is upscale dinning that is worth the price. Enjoy!

   I like casinos for a unique experience and excitement. However, Council Oak is a reason of itself to go to Hard Rock Cincinnati. The food is a cut above, and the service is the best of any restaurant I have ever visited. The bar staff is amazing!!

    Shout out to Josh, the GM with Council Oaks Steaks and Seafood inside Hard Rock Cafe! I called the restaurant because I didn’t see anything listed GF on the online menu. I left a voicemail with the restaurant and the GM called me back with a list of what can be modified or items that were prepared without gluten. He asked me for my email so he could send over a recap of what we talked about on the phone so I could reference it for later. He said feel free to reach out with any additional questions. We arrive on Saturday for our dinner and he was there and seated us. The server came over and already knew I had a gluten allergy and was informative on what I could have. I ended up getting sweet potatoes and a chicken dish. The food was good and the service and atmosphere were superb! I truly appreciated the hospitality and concern for my experience!
