Best Southern American Restaurants in Over the Rhine

We brought my brother and sister-in-law here for the first time on 2/15/25. Our server Merrick (sorry if I spelled it wrong) was great! Phenomenal dinner, food came out quickly and was delicious. The guys got whole chickens and my sister in law got the chicken sandwich. We ordered fries, spoon bread, succotash, horseradish mashed potatoes, shrimps and grit and macaroni and cheese. We had a lot left over but they wanted to try everything. Last night, the shrimps and grits stole the show though, 10/10! Our only issue, I hate to mention it because we had such a wonderful time but since I am deaf in one ear I feel it may be helpful to someone else; we were seated under a speaker and the music was so loud. So if you’re going and you have hearing issues, maybe ask not to be seated close to where their speakers are. Highly recommend if you love quick, efficient service and pipin hot, yummy food!

My wife and I ate here for Valentine’s Day and we had one of the best meals/experience we have ever had. The meal was absolutely amazing and creative. Our server made the experience that much better with her positivity and great suggestions. We LOVED our experience!

Great food—interesting flavors, pricey but worth it. We were fortunate to have an early reservation and not be crushed against other diners which can happen in the tables for two since the restaurant is so small. Cole was a wonderful server. Nolia never disappoints.

All was well , It was valentines day right a 4:00 pm Doors had just open and there were about 20 people waiting outside. So the place filled up fast and the service was stressed for the first half hour, my biggest problem was when I ordered dessert it took over 25 min. To receive it along with my check? Other than that all was ok.

Great Galentine’s Event! We always have delicious food with cute decorations! Bella was a great server too!
