   Excellent and great ambience!! Would have given 5 stars, but had to check in with hostess 3 different times and it took a manager to get us seated.

   The Golden Lamb has been our family's go-to Christmas Eve restaurant for over 20 years. Even though the emphasis in the menu is on meat, our servers always find a great and tasty vegetarian meal for our daughter. We appreciate that so much! The food is always wonderful, and the service excellent. We'll be back in 2021 for sure! Thank you!

   We have been long time customers of the Lamb--all the way back to the 60's. Sadly, the other members of our party feared for their health and asked us to please cancel. We did, only because we choose not to dine alone on such a festive occasion. As Arnold said, "We will be back."

   We feel extremely safe at the Golden Lamb and Dark Horse Tavern. They have gone way above what is expected to make their restaurant inviting to guests during this Covid period. Our Thanksgiving dinner was outstanding. Jason, our waiter, was very attentive. The Dark Horse Tavern has become one of our favorite places to eat.

   The Thanksgiving Dinner (turkey and dressing) was wonderful. The turkey was so moist and the Sugar pie reminded me of my great grandmother's sugar cream pie. Service was great and the ambience of the hotel with the beautiful Christmas decorations was amazing!!!

    We have eaten at the Golden Lamb for several Thanksgivings. Always pleased with the ambiance, food and service. Such a great place. I would like to say, this year the food wasn't up to par. Even the relish tray, the marinated green beans lacked any flavor, I think they were the very same as came with our turkey dinners. No butter with the dinner rolls. I can't see how Covid could be the cause of this. We don't mind paying for a good meal, but this time it was just a little less than what we have gotten in the past. Thanksgiving is not the only time we eat at the Golden Lamb and we'll will be back.

    We were greeted warmly and immediately shown to a table, we enjoyed sauerkraut balls, and a lovely Shepard's pie. Since it was my sisters birthday she received a complementary sugar cream pie and I had an apple pie (tart) with ice cream. all in all a great way to celebrate her birthday.

    Fantastic except that we had rude people next to us watching a sports game loudly on their phone. I brought it to the attention of someone at the front desk and it was dealt with quickly, which we really appreciated. I do think the waitress should’ve taken care of it though. Food was delicious, service was fantastic. We’ll be back!

    Spacing of tables was good. Staff would ensure each person entering would have a mask. One couple did not have masks when coming in... and management ensured they had masks (good) and when the couple did not, management had new masks to provide them. Service and food were very good.

    We absolutely love dining at the Golden Lamb. This was a special occasion but we also love dining in the Dark Horse Tavern. Your Restaurant Week special was delicious (as were the salmon and turkey dinner. Renee' is the best. Mark and Karen in the Dark Horse are excellent as well. Their bloody marys are the best!! We like going to a restaurant where the employees are friendly and make an honest effort to talk with you.

    My husband and I were out to eat for our 20th anniversary. We were both nervous eating inside a restaurant right now with Covid-19 still raging on, so I think we paid more attention to making sure our masks were on when we weren't eating and drinking. I had booked the table, but thought it was for private dining. We got there early, and I was thinking we'd look around. Surprisingly, they seated us right away in the dining room. I looked at the menu and saw none of the names associated with the meals I had seen online here, like Pres. McKinley or Charles Dickens. We were sitting right by the kitchen so I should have realized it wasn't private dining. It was noisy there and next to a table with several people talking. My husband was fine with where we were though. We devoured the salad with house vinaigrette. It had thinly sliced Granny Smith apples and roasted pecans. I had the filet mignon with chimichurri sauce on a bed of grains. I loved the filet and the beans and grains were a nice complement. The filet was seasoned well and so tender. But I should have asked for the chimichurri sauce on the side; I wasn't sure how that would taste and didn't care for it. My husband ordered prime rib with cheesy potatoes. He thought it would be more like roast beef, but the cut of meat was tougher and fattier than expected. The cheesy potatoes were delicious. We added sandwiches to go to try the egg salad and their sticky burger -- so good! The Golden Lamb restaurant has great service and really polite, professional, and caring people working for them. We probably needed to speak up at the beginning, so that's on us. Overall, I enjoyed myself and we will return in the future.

    The Golden LambResponded on October 6, 2020SusanMMB, thank you very much for your feedback! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience. In the future to book private dining, please give us a call at 513-932-5065 and ask to speak with De-De Bailey. Unfortunately, we do not take private dining reservations through OpenTable.

    We started out having a couple drinks at the bar, which was very nice. The staff were very friendly and got our drinks quickly, but kind of disappeared when we were ready for another drink. Our dinner was very good except my wife could not stop complimenting our waiters beautiful blue eyes, I think his name was Carter, so guys watch out. Overall if we didn’t live so far away, we would definitely return. Oh, and we stayed the night in the George W Bush room, which was nice also.

    Here for restaurant week. My guest chose the restaurant week menu and lucked out big time. She was allowed to substitute a salad for the first course, the duck was very good and they were out of the restaurant week dessert, so she got to pick anything from the regular menu. I had the halibut and it was very good. Pesto mashed potatoes were pretty good too. Nice pours on the cocktails. Though the wine list is small there was just enough to satisfy us. Service was fine. Ambiance is terrific. Very comfortable in both food and room.
