Best Casual Restaurants in Newtown

Great food and service as always! I requested the barrel room and was granted that request which was so kind of them! I had the tuna and my husband had chicken piccata. Both excellent!

We had such a wonderful dinner experience at Green Line! We (two couples) shared the charcuterie board, which was a perfect amount for the four of us. We enjoyed both cocktails (Kentucky mule) and mocktails that were very refreshing. We then each ordered something different for our entree and we each really savored our dinner! Again, perfect portion amount, wonderful flavors, and high quality food. Jessica, our server, was personable and was very attentive to our needs. We each commented that we want to come back to Green Line so we can try another dish on the menu!

We had a fabulous experience from start to finish. I booked the restaurant with friends based on reviews and what we were interested in eating, and the food, service, and ambience did not disappoint. It was a real treat!

Everything about Alara wowed us! One of my dearest friends was in town to visit and we are both foodies! I had heard great things about Alara from other friends, so we decided to try it. I'm so glad we did. The valet parking is so nice, especially since the weather was snowy the night we dined. The atmosphere is elegant and beautifully done. No detail was overlooked. The service was impeccable. Askia, our server, was delightful...so knowledgeable. Everything he suggested was outstanding. We ordered a bottle of wine to complement our dinner choices and that enhanced the meal even more. Portions are large and perfect for sharing. I took home quite a bit for leftovers which was a huge bonus. If you love beets, the beet and goat cheese salad is a must! For our entrees, we chose the Lobster & Butternut Squash Carbonara and Seared Sea Scallops with Brussels Sprouts & Butternut Squash as our vegetable side dish. All were exceptionally prepared. The Carbonara had a very generous amount of lobster so you got some in every bite! Askia recommended we save room for dessert, and I'm glad we did. We had the Creamsicle Cloud and Chocolate Espresso Torte. The Cloud was the most beautiful dessert I've ever seen and it was equally light and elegant. The Torte was beyond rich and decadent. The Prisoner bottle of wine was delicious with the entire meal, but especially that rich chocolate dessert. Cincinnati is fortunate to have some fabulous restaurants, and Alara is one of them. It is a must for a special occasion or an evening of pampered perfection.

From crafted, delicious cocktails to delectable meals, especially the salmon, all served by engaging and concerned staff. The Emery is very conscientious about ensuring foods are made that are suitable for diners that have specific food allergies. Thank you!
