So glad to get to the new spot in Cincinnati. I’ve been a fan of Cap City in Columbus for decades, so it’s nice to have them closer. The place is gorgeous and comfortable. The service was excellent. And the food was outstanding.

I eat out a lot in Cincy and this is my new favorite. Literally nothing to complain about. We did the oysters, brie, chicken, filet, carrots, truffle fettuccini, and 2 desserts and can’t pick a favorite. Ridiculous lol. Worth every penny. Service top notch. And the chairs at the tables are actually comfy :)

I had made reservations months before and at the beginning of the week of our reservation, they announced the restaurant was permanently closing the night we were to be there. I was a bit concerned that the menu would be limited but the full menu was available. As I had previously heard, the food and service was fantastic. We had ordered the bbq chicken, pasta with scallops, ricotta bread and some drinks. The atmosphere was excellent and despite them permanently closing that evening, it felt like everyone wanted Red Feather to go out on top.

The dinner was delicious! Starting with the delicate sashimi which was very fresh and had a buttery texture. Next the five whole different colored carrots were perfectly cooked and beautifully presented and the gizzards were tender and tasty with the chimichurri sauce. The lamb neck was huge (easily enough for 2 people) and perfectly cooked with a crispy crust and tender flavorful meat underneath. The duck breast was also perfectly cooked a nice medium rare with a tasty sauce sauce. Our server Cole was friendly, attentive and enthusiastic. Altogether a great experience!
