The food was absolutely delicious! We had a party of four and decided to share all of our entrees. What a great way to try everything! Staff was magnificent and accommodating. We were running late and I was able to push our reservation back an hour through the OpenTable messaging. Thank you so much and we will definitely be back to try the Mahi Reuben!

We love Sacred Beast because, as people following the KETO eating model, we can order right off the menu with little to no modifications, and get delicious, healthy food that meets out dietary requirements, while at the same time exceeding our expectations of flavor and enjoyment. There are very few restaurants where this is possible. Thank you, o great Sacred Beast!

Shrimp cocktail was $16 for THREE “jumbo” shrimp. The Dirty French was $18 and didn’t include sides. Sandwich would be good if the sauce it sat in wasn’t so salty. Cute atmosphere and sweet server. Food missed the mark, especially at the price point they charge.

Service was very slow. Food was good but I think for the price, I would expect some type of side to come with the entrees/sandwiches, even if it was like 5 French fries. Breakfast seems to be best bang for your buck here, and would definitely recommend the lemon ricotta pancakes.

Service was very slow. 10 minute wait for drinks and refills. Went on a Wednesday at 630pm so it wasn’t busy. The burger was ok nothing special. The fries came out soggy and had to send back to get crisped. Fries came back pretty good but was inconvenienced because I was halfway done with burger by time fries came back. Overpriced because of location because all the restaurants try and be hip.

Went on a Saturday early evening before a FC Cincinnati match. We were seated towards the rear of the restaurant which was to our liking; it is spacious and quieter than the bustle towards the front. Service was great, had the Dirty French burger, Hashbrowns & Kimchi Ketchup and Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, plus wine and a beer. Every morsel of food was consumed and was excellent.

We had a really nice experience last night at Sacred Beast. We selected the Opera tasting menu with wine pairing. Service was terrific - timing was measured and interaction friendly. Food was outstanding - look, taste and mouth feel superior, Wine pairs were excellent. You'll see us back soon! This was our fourth visit over 2 years, so consistency is their virtue.
